Give Thanks!

It's the time of year again where the leaves are changing and football season is in full swing. Here we are actually getting chilly mornings and evenings and easier afternoons. Here in Gilmer, we are all ready and talking of feeling Yamboree coming soon....which for those who don't know what it is..it's our local fair that goes on for 3 and half days. This warmer is this month's special with Scentsy and it just made me think...that this is the time for pumpkins and reflection..but can't we remember to "Give Thanks" year round? I personally love when the air turns cooler and sweaters and jackets are a must. I am truly grateful for the amazing family I am blessed to spend each and every day with. For an amazing husband who loves me and spoils me entirely too much. He is truly the best thing about me. I am grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ. I am thankful for my amazing babies who make my life exciting. I am grateful to be with Scentsy and for the amazing opportunities it has put in my path. I am grateful for my bestest friends. I hope to try and carry this "give thanks" attitude a little longer than normal this year....my wish...is for you to do the same.

Say it ain't so....

Oh..OH..Oh..oh.oooooooo I finally went through the boys baby clothes...and cried like a baby while doing so!! I could picture each sweet little boy in each outfit. How can it be that Jud is almost 12, Jake is almost 7 and Jarom is almost 5? (Jaici's clothes are in a separate pile..for a separate day of crying) I am mystified at this growing thing...we see these sweet faces everyday..and yet their little hands, feet, faces...and legs are growing right before our eyes! I am so sad I won't feel the stirring of life within me again..but am truly grateful for the 4 opportunities I did have. Each one has brought me more happiness than imaginable. I picked out my favorites cutie pie outfits that I can't part with..well at least for right now..and then packed the rest up for cousins..who will suck the life out of them too and create memories for their mamas to cling to. Love those babies...love them, kiss them, hug them, discipline them...squeeze them...cause one day.....those hugs and kisses will be few and far between...

Summer pushes into fall....

Me wakeboarding!




Me and sis!



I've been trying to upload a ton of pics from this summer and haven't been successful! I could only get these uploaded so we'll go with this for now!! We've had a ball going to the lake and skiing and tubing!


But school has started...




Which means it's just me and my little man...and whatever he wants!!






and a whole lotta

Lovin' my life!!

Look at these kids and tell me how life couldn't be good?!!

ALOHA!! Mahola,Scentsy!!

We started off the summer off the best way I could ever imagine! I earned this trip with Scentsy and let me tell you ...Scentsy pulls out all the stops! It was a dream come true! We relaxed on the beach,played volleyball, saw waterfalls,met and mingled with some of the most amazing Scentsy leaders! I seriously don't know what my life was like before Scentsy!! The kids were in limbo between mine and Denny's families..and think they enjoyed us being gone!!But were so excited to have us back home!!

A mother's courage

My dear, sweet friend lost her precious 2 month old, Tess to SIDS 2 weeks ago. She and her brother(who wrote the song) sang it at the funeral! I can't imagine the strength and courage it took Jordan to be able to sing this that day!

DJ shoes!

So I totally found these rockin' shoes for a steal of a deal!! He loves them and immediatly called them his DJ shoes! He says he can wear those when he's DJ'n! Seriously, ya'll..this kid keeps me laughing!
