Gymnastics!!


We started tumbling this week, and our little girl could not be more excited! She looked so bid, where has all this time gone? I feel like it was just yesterday that we brought her home. She did great for her first class. She struggled a little bit on the back handspring training mat, she told the coach "nope I will not do that!" finally she decided to try it and she loved it! Well out of all things, I hope she keeps interest in this hobby because she looked to cute doing it. What can I say? I'm her number one fan:)

It feels like fall





Well it sure felt like fall here today, it was 68 degrees here! We felt it was the perfect day for a walk, we enjoyed it so much, we walk to the pond in our neighborhood and watched people fish, watched about a million squirrels along the walk, yes you read it right a million. Everywhere you go there is at least 5 squirrels to be spotted just about 6 feet away. We have truly enjoyed our Sunday, I can't wait to watch all the leaves change colors. It's one of my favorite seasons! Maddie and I are going to attempt to make a pumpkin pie this week, we will see how that goes I'll keep you posted. She says she will show me how to make one since this summer she made one with her great grandma. We will just have to see how much she really knows, I'm sure she remembers the entire recipe!

Finally Moved In!

Sorry I have not posted for a while, but you all can understand it was been really busy around here. Anyhow I'm back for good! We are all finally moved in, and box free. I have to tell you I was a wreck the first week I was here, I guess it really hit me that I have moved away from my family and friends. I think for the first time since this moving that I actually cried!(If you know me, you know I don't do that often)
Do you ever feel that sometimes we just fuss no matter how many blessings God has given us? Well I know I have been fussing a lot about this move, our house (which is smaller than we expected!), moving away from our church, friends, family, and so on...Well this last week God has really shown me how many blessings he has poured on my family during this season. First of all, I have found a good friend that we knew in Colorado and she lives right next to us, I'm able to stay at home with my daughter, and we found a good church. When I put it all into perspective, I really have been blessed and need to be happy! I really like the city we live in and the people are really nice. I guess I just need to stop looking at the negative and focus on the positive!
