With God ANYTHING is possible!

Because my own son has limitations with his physical body

I crave examples of anyone overcoming great odds!

This video moved me to those ugly hickup tears!
(It didn't help that he sang one of my all time favorites)
I'm warning you to get your tissue now...

It's Autumn time..

Okay it's official... 

Summer is over and my name is 

suddenly becoming much more talked about.

Well since I slacked I thought I'd share a few of my 

favorite summer moments. 

Kennedy moved Addison down to her room this summer

 and they both LOVE the company! 

I can't say enough good things about SISTERS,

just love the whole idea :)

Yes.. that is Addison playing with a dog and a TURKEY!?

Aunt Nicole's house was the funnest hang out place this 

year..

One of Scott's friends gave him a baby turkey as a joke, 

it took a WHILE to find a good home for "TOM"

My nephew Jett keeping Addy warm...

He is so SWEET!

I just think this is the PERFECT summer picture. 

A few of my favorite things...

green grass, sprinklers, swimsuits and sunshine!

Miss Addison loves her cousin - Matthew so much 

I just had to include one of her favorite moments. 

Wish we could live closer!

The cure ALL!

School officially started last Thursday and it didn't take long for
me to pull out my mega dose antidepressant.
Thank You little bears for jumping in that chocolate and
soothing my sad and bitter thoughts about the end of summer.
I can honestly say I enjoyed every moment!

Kennedy is so excited to have Mrs. Little as her 5th Grade

teacher this year.

She begged me to request her last year and when I asked

why she said...

"because she's a little lady like me Mom"

I guess there's no arguing with that logic.

Carter is in Mrs. Haight's second grade class.
She is one of our favorites at South..
I was also excited to find out there are only
18 kids in his class this year :)
He said "she is one of the nicest ladies, ever"
I feel so blessed that my kids are able to
go to such a great school!
Even though I will MISS them like
cRAzY!!!

Daddy is the BEST!

A couple of days before this picture I came home from work

and Addison was outside with the same messy hair she woke up with.

I gave Dan the look that said

"Really, you couldn't comb her hair ALL day?"

So the next time he was in charge he worked this pony magic...

It far exceeded my expectaions. ;)

Farm Adventures

I use to go stay on my Grandparents farm every summer

in Caliente Nevada as a little girl.
So I have always been
familiar with pig slop, smelly poo and the occasional crazy cow chases
when Grandpa would say "those" words ;)
I hate to admit that my kids have been totally
sheltered from any and all parts of farm life.

 

They were SO excited
when Dan's friend - Jared said he would let them come to
his family farm and ride his horse.
It was a lot of fun and Addy is still
asking for a pony of her own...

I guess she can add that to the list along
with the puppy, and kitten.
I'm sorry but I think of having a pet and all I
can imagine is all the poo I would clean up!
I can't even
get my 3 year old to put the poo where it goes!
