Wow what a week!!

It has been one crazy week to say the least!! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I started getting ready and working on Holiday Market last monday and I haven't seen my kids all that much must less blogged. We had our last day of Holiday Market last night and now I hope life will start getting back to normal! I am ready for sleep!! Anyways...lots to share...John and Holly came to visit last weekend and we so enjoyed their visit. It had been way too long since we had seen them last. Holly is pregnant and we are so excited we are getting a niece or nephew and a cousin for Emma and Hagan. I will attach some pictures from their visit:







Holiday Market was a great success. We were worried since the economy is not at it's best that this year would not do as well but it was great!! The figures are still rolling in but we are very pleased!! Here are some pictures of our big fundraising event. I am so glad I was a part of bringing this together:

It's finally friday!!

It is finally friday!!! Sorry it has been so long since my last post. We have been so sick around our house. Jason, Hagan and I were all sick so we haven't been much fun around here. We are all better now thank goodness and are back to routine. I am staying busy right now getting ready for Junior League Holiday Market. It is only 2 weeks away and I am ready!! I have been working like crazy getting ready for it and will be glad to have some of my life back once it is over. Emma has a sleepover at school tonight so Jason and I are having a date night since she's gone. They even offered to keep Hagan for a few hours so we could have a meal in peace. It is Emma's first sleepover and Jason and I are taking bets on what time we will be called to pick her up. Hagan is growing and is into everything these days. He is teething which is no fun but he is still a sweetie pie! Well, last night I had bathed the kids and we had finished dinner and Emma was walking around with her Sleeping Beauty microphone and singing. It was so funny so I took a video. It is so cute! She sings ALL the time and has started making up her on songs to go with tunes she already knows. Jason and I kid all the time that the child never takes a breath..she is either talking or singing all the time..LOL! Well here is the video...enjoy! Have a great weekend!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was lots of fun and the kiddos got way too much candy. Emma is wanting candy for breakfast now! My little Cinderella and Monkey went through our neighborhood trick or treating. Of course Hagan could've cared less but Emma loved it except when we got to this very decorated house. There was a ghost flying through the air and she got really scare and said ok mom time to go back to my house! It was quite humorous! Anyways...the festivites continue today. We are going to our church festival. They are going to have hayrides, pony rides, games, etc...it should be fun except it is right in the middle of GA/FL game so we are kind of bummed about that but thank goodness for Tivo! Well we would like to say Happy Halloween to everyone and Go Dawgs!

Happy Fall Ya'll!!

Fall is here and the leaves are changing. Tomorrow is Halloween and Emma can't wait! She had her Halloween party at school today and she was so excited!! We were on the way out the door this morning and I decided to take a picture of them in their cute Fall outfits. They were so funny and cracking up at each other while I tried to get a picture. They are growing up so fast! I can't believe Hagan will be 1 in a month and a half! It seems like just yesterday we brought him home from the hospital. Oh how time flies! Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!!

Balloon Fest

We went to the Poteau Balloon Fest this weekend. They had hot air balloons, carnival rides, vendor booths, and food. We had a good time but it was so cold!! Halloween is next weekend and we can't wait!! Uncle Brad is flying in and we are going trick or treating. Hagan has a cold right now so I hope he's better and can enjoy the festivities! Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Splish Splash I was takin a bath!

Ok so picture the scene at our house the other night. I ran the bath water to give Hagan a bath and went into his room to undress him. When I came back in the bathroom Emma and Cadon were stripped down and climbing into the tub. I started laughing because it was just hilarious. I put Hagan in with them and Claire was like what about me?? So I let them all get into the tub together. It was so funny but Hagan wasn't too sure about sharing his bath with 3 other kids. They are so funny! It is so great to have good friends whose kids are about our kids age. It makes being so far away a lot easier.

Tomorrow we are going to a hot air balloon festival. I know Emma is going to love it. I think I am going to take the kids to the pumpkin patch tomorrow afternoon and let them pick out a pumpkin to carve. I love this time of year and it is finally feeling like Fall. Halloween is next weekend and we can't wait. I bet you can't guess what Emma is going to be? Of course Cinderella!! Hagan is going to be a monkey. I will be sharing all those fun pics with you all next week. Uncle Brad is coming that weekend so it ought to be a fun time!!

It's finally feeling like Fall!

It is starting to finally feel like Fall around here and we can't wait to go outside and play in the afternoons since the weather is so nice. Saturday evening we had so much fun with the Rahn's watching the kids play on the swingset and the gator. Emma is finally starting to like the gator she got for her birthday. Thank you Uncle Brad for working so hard on getting the gator to work. It did not run at all when we got it and Uncle Brad worked long hours to get it running again. Well, it was a great weekend especially since the dawgs won!! We all had on our Georgia gear. Hope everyone had an equally great weekend. It's monday again...ugh! The McCormick's are coming for a visit this week and we can't wait! We always love having family come in town to visit! Hope everyone has a wonderful week! I wanted to share with everyone some of the precious pictures I took of the kids having fun in the yard. They were so cute!!

Happy Friday!

Sorry it has taken me so long to post. We have been so busy around here. Hagan is still battling a cold and is on his second round of antibiotics. Emma is staying busy between school, dance and gymnastics. I am a chairperson for our big junior league event Holiday Market, which is now only a month away. I have been so busy trying to finalize everything for that and take care of the kids. I think Jason is just as ready as I am for it to be over with especially since about 15 women invaded his house last night for our invitation stuffing party. Anyways...sorry there isn't much to report on these days. The kids are growing like weeds. Hope to see you all very soon. Happy Fall Ya'll!
