Christmas Sunday!!!

Christmas Sunday is very important to me. I make Rebekah a Christmas dress, buy new shirts for the boys (cute one for Jeremy and one that matches Rebekah's dress for Joseph), but besides looking our best, I love it because I know what the sermon will be about. Something about God loving me so much that He came down to earth to save us all.... The Holy becoming my Friend.

The Christmas dress I made Rebekah this year.

I love fixing up Rebekah's hair. We did it in curls with pink glitter sprayed in.
My sweet Baby Bear!!!! So adorable!!
Sitting together around the tree at church. :D
Very windy on Sunday!!! Joseph helping his sister.
Awwwww!!! They love each other.... sometimes. LOL
My little princess!

The Nutcracker!!!

Joseph and Rebekah! Such an awesome memory!!!

Joseph being silly.
Right after the show he came and sat for two seconds and I quickly snapped two shots of him. LOL MAN! He is so good looking!!!
Rebekah and her teacher Amanda!!! Wow! I just realized that they kind of look alike here. hahaha Both Stunningly beautiful!!!



Such a pretty and sweet Cherry Bon Bon!!!!
Joseph was the mischievous Fritz who broke the Nutcracker.

Us at the Pumpkin patch!!!

This pumpkin patch also has a petting zoo area, pony rides, a little train ride, and a gift shop. Last year there was corn maze too but we went to early this year and the corn wasn't tall enough.

Jeremy fell asleep on the way so the first bit he was a little out of it.
I love this picture! Having fun while the wind blows through his hair.
Rebekah!!!!
A large girl painted pumpkin to play in.
Love this picture!!!
Walking through the pumpkins.
Rebekah loved this white one!
Joseph wanting to be pushing the wheelbarrow. :D My boy is growing up.
Joseph trying to lift the big pumpkin.
Jon with the prize pumpkin (btw, it is now beautiful and orange in front of our yard.).
Towards the end Jeremy get excited about what we were doing and started bringing any pumpkin he could lift to the wheelbarrow. Hahahaha We had to sneak them back out onto the ground when he wasn't looking.
It was so adorable seeing him try to pick up each one until he finds one he can lift.
"And this one... and this one... and this one. Man, now that I know what you guys are doing, I can be a big help!"

Joseph and Rebekah holding hands as they walk. A sweet brother/sister moment.

"And some of these...."
"All these fun little pumpkins!"
"I have to go to the bathroom."
"Can I buy it with my own money?"

I really hope these videos loaded. Big Hugs everyone!!!!

My beautiful Children!!!

My sweet Rebekah. She loves curly hair so every once and a while I do her hair in rags the night before and these are the curls we get the next day. She loooooooves them. LOL

Dear sweet Jeremy!!!

All my children bring a smile to my face and joy in my heart.

Joseph's 8th Birthday!!!

Wow!!! What a summer and now to cap it off with my sweet baby boy's eighth birthday party. I can't believe it!!! How in the world did he suddenly get to be eight? His hair is proof of his becoming his own little man. Soon school will be starting and I will miss him like crazy. Love you Joseph!!!!
