My little ballerina

I love this tenderhearted little sweetie. This picture is from Halloween, the one time of the year she gets to wear makeup:) Someday I will get around to posting the months of October and November. My goal is to be caught up by Christmas, haha, we'll see about that.

Botanical Garden

This is one of my favorite places ever. So much lovliness at every turn and an awesome reminder of God's endless beauty and creativity. Here are some pictures with us in them, but I will post a few of my favorites of God's creation alone, as well.

Red fountain in honor of the Cardinals

I was stuck up on this rock (after accepting a dare from my boys), so Nile began documenting my plight.

Seth giving me his advice:)

Jos hanging out with me while I was still thinking...

It really is much higher than this pic shows, really truly. Plus, my back was hurting so badly that I could barely bend, let alone jump down gracefully. Maybe our 14 year old bed needs replaced, lol?

Seconds after I finally got down, Josie jumped down from the very top by herself. It was humiliating for me:)

Boys' Birthdays

The boys were very excited that Nana and Papa could come celebrate their birthdays, you know, back in September:) I'm hopelessly behind, but will keep plugging away. We had a fun weekend with them. Seth got an ipod (new to him, it was Nile's old one) and was in heaven. Gabe was excited about his Legos, and they both loved their beyblades. I did a rotten job of taking pictures, but managed to get a few of them each. I can't believe they are 10 and 8 now! I love these guys to death and wouldn't trade them for the world. They are so very different in many ways, but I am thankful for the bond and the love they share. I pray it would only strengthen over the years.
