Such Love...

Looking at these pictures reminds me of what true love is...

Kudos and glasses to you my babies...

I'm just going to say it... My kids all have glasses! Brittani has needed them for quite a while, but now Jacob and Alyssa have them! I'm shocked that they all have such poor eyesight, but I must admit they look so stinkin' adorable!! Both Jacob and Ally got black framed glasses and they are so cute I could just smother them with kisses (much to their dismay). I can't help it though, they are really precious in those glasses.

Also... Jacob and Alyssa both finished up their sports seasons. Alyssa scored a few goals this year and had quite a few assists. She really rocks out there. And Jacob. Oh My!! He played like I have never seen him play before. He was AMAZING. He was full back, and middle line-backer and he was the best little dude out there (of course, he's my son)! He even made the All-Star team. Only 4 boys were picked and Jacob was one of them. I am so proud of him, of both of them. I just love being their mom! :0)

The Shack

Wow! I just read an amazing book. It's called The Shack. My mom forced me to read this book(ok, so forced is a little strong. Maybe she just persuaded me... ok, so scratch that too. Truth be told she just had it lying around and I begged her to let me read it). Anywhoo, she let me borrow her book and I literally ate it up (ok, so not literally, but I would have)... I loved it (and that is an understatement). It was powerful, and beautiful, and full of God... I loved it so much that I put a quote at the top of my blog from the book. The point is... READ IT! And then have a blessed day! :0) Like Papa says, "If anything matters, than everything matters!"

Thanks IHOP

So yesterday we went to IHOP after church and they were having a raffle. They have them quite often, infact, last time we were there Jacob won a backpack full of school supplies. So, we entered the girls in the raffle (because it was for a girl's bike) and Jada won!! The bike is way too big for her (and too small for Alyssa) but we were so shocked that she actually won it!! She looks so big in this picture. *Tear* I'm so sad that she is getting to be such a big girl. It makes my heart hurt... I want her to be a baby forever...

Sweet Dane Jordan...

Well, my sweet "nephew" Dane Jordan is here! I saw him the other day and he is one hot boy... :0) Tara had her baby Sept. 15. As you can see he takes after his auntie... :0) And he is really smart. He looked at me like he really understood what I was saying. I wonder if he is interested in older women... Huh Jada... :0) God is good!
