Halloween

We had a great Halloween! We took the kids up to Aunt Joanie's church, Grace Baptist in Sevierville. They had lots of food, candy and fun! Brody enjoyed the bounce house and Sawyer really wanted to get in it, but I was afraid she would get hurt, so she just bounced on the side and slid down the slide. We went to Memaws house afterward, we were hoping to trick or treat there, but it was too rainy. At the end of the day we had some really tired children!

Pumpkin Patch

The day before Halloween we went to Ballinger Farms, they had a pumpkin patch, corn maze, an old tractor and fire engine. They also had box full of corn kernels with shovels and little bulldozers, Brody and Sawyer really enjoyed playing in it. Brody enjoyed sitting on a fire engine and tractor. We had a great time!

Funny Faces!

It has been a while since my last post, we have been pretty busy and sick! Not fun to see your little ones feel bad. First Brody got the flu, then Sawyer and then she got pneumonia. We are all feeling better now, thank the lord! Brody and I carved our pumpkin and he was so excited! We had a Halloween gathering with our SCAM group. I love seeing all the kids dressed up in their costumes. Thanks to Jaymie for the good food and prizes! Today we celebrated Joel's mamaws 100th birthday! yes, you read that right 100! She is such an amazing women who still lives alone and drives, (don't worry she is a good driver). It is amazing to sit down and think about all of the things she has experienced in her lifetime. We are so thankful the lord has kept her healthy, we are so blessed to have her. We are looking forward to a healthier week!

We just got back from a great vacation in Hilton Head, SC. I loved seeing my little girl in pigtails playing in the sand! So cute! Brody really enjoyed the ocean this year. Sawyer would just sit in the ocean and play with a cup or shovel. Brody also loved playing in the pool and "pushing" Joel in. We really enjoyed our trip with the Brewer's and we are so grateful for their hospitality.

Cute Kid Pictures!

Here are some fun pics of the kids! Brody likes to put on my coat and pretend its his fireman coat.

Brody's 3rd Birthday!

Brody turned 3 Monday! It just seems like the other day that my water broke on that Thursday morning. Where does the time go? We had his birthday party Saturday, it was fun but we had a hard time getting him to nap before the party so he was pretty tired. His Memaw found him a john deere gator that he LOVES!! He wants to play on it all the time. The day after his party he walked outside and said "good morning gator." On Monday after he enjoyed his "pancake sandwich" he went to mothers day out and I brought cupcakes so he could celebrate his birthday with all his school friends. As active and difficult as he can be sometimes he is even more sweet! we are so blessed to have him!

Busy Summer!

We have had a great summer so far! This past week I have enjoyed a baby shower for my friend Jaymie who is expecting her little girl in August, then my niece Karis had her 2nd birthday party! I cant believe she is 2!! She is such a sweetie. Brody could hardly keep his hands off her cake. Of course in the midst of all these activities I am planning Brody's 3rd birthday and enjoying spending time with my wonderful family! I love having parties so this works good for me. Sawyer is apparently going to be like her mother and brother and climb on everything! I found her in the middle of the kitchen table and she was having a great time. We are so blessed to have 2 wonderful kids and great friends and family! God is good!!
