My Creative Son

Joshua was playing down in the floor and he said, "Hey Mommy, look at what I did." He had made the J and the O in his name out of his hot wheels cars. He asked me to help him make the S and then he did the H with a little bit of my help. I am very impressed with his creativity.

2009 Trunk or Treat

Mr. Bumblebee Transformer had a blast at the Trunk or Treat our church put on tonight. He played lots of games and got tons of candy! He's a very happy boy tonight. :)

My First 5K

I ran my very first 5K this morning! I ran it in 32 minutes and feel SOO PROUD for accomplishing this.

Crossing the finish line. (got some crazy hair going on) You can see Joshua running in behind me. He met me right before the finish line and ran through it too. It was so cute. Everyone was cheering him on.

VICTORY DANCE! YES, I did it!

Our Halloween Tree

Me and Joshua put together our Halloween Tree tonight. We made ghost and found some other fun halloween stuff and a green snake to put on our tree. I decided it would be fun to decorate the tree for each holiday these next couple of months. After Halloween we are going to decorate the tree for Thanksgiving by making fun Thanksgiving crafts and by clipping words to the tree of things we are thankful for.And, then of course we'll decorate for Christmas.

ENJOY our Pictures!

Joshua is going to be a Transformer for Halloween this year so we decided to use his mask as our tree topper.

Joshua's School Picture

Check out my little man. He looks sooooooo grown up in this picture. This is his 4 year old school picture and I just can't believe how big he's gotten. He's such a blessing to me and Rodney and definitely one of the most awesome gifts that has ever been given to us by our Amazing God!

Playing in the Rain

When we got home from work and school today the bottom dropped out and it started pouring rain. So, we decided to have a little fun playing in it. :)

Joshua dancing in the rain.


Back in the house all dried off.




The water was just rushing through the sidewalk.
The rain started back up so of course we had to go back out in it. It was getting pretty deep in front of the townhouse.



Joshua riding some little girls scooter through the rain.
Having a blast!!! He didn't want to come in.
