Where's Kara???
Anyone know what's up with Kara's blog? I check it and it is a blank screen. Is she a blog drop out? Or is she having technical difficulties!

Happy Early Halloween!
We had a "dress rehearsal" with our costumes today. It was awfully sunny out, but they were in the mood so we went with it. Trick or Treating around here is always at night...not ideal for photos. So here's my little love bugs!

Musical Genius...is it in the blood?

So we were on the way to school today listening to our new Veggie Tales Sunday School Songs CD. Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho came on and Carsyn said "Hey, that's my Little Einstein's song." I thought she made no sense til I realized that the last episode she watched featured the theme from Peter and the Wolf, which, although I had never really thought about it, is basically the same tune.

Who says TV isn't educational?

Good Morning, Sunshine!

Today is Payton's birthday. This morning I went in to her room and this is how she greeted me. I had to capture it with a photo. Words cannot express my love for this little angel. If you are a mom, you kind of have an idea. But if you are a mom who has gone through something like what Payt and I went through before she was born, it is an amazing bond. I just stop and look at her sometimes and am amazed how perfect she is. Happy Birthday, angel!

Happy Birthday Payton!!!

Yesterday we had Payton's first birthday party, even though the big day is actually today. (A year ago I was dying for her to be born on the 21st!) Here are some photos of her at her party. She was a perfect little hostess- not the usual anxious and overwhelmed one year old you usually see at a party. She walked around to everyone, holding their hands, letting them hold her. She played with the big kids all afternoon. And she ate a ton of cake!

Nothing new and exciting here in Troy, Texas. Life is super busy. But we are finally blessed with a cloudy, rainy, cool fall day. It is great! I was going to scrap, but Walgreens didn't print my photos. So I think I'll scrap anyway and add the photos later. We actually slept in through church today which is amazing since we are usually up by 7:30. We slept til 9!
So, there's nothing new to post, but you can check out Payton's round one of her photos on the photographer's website. She wants to do more because it was too sunny to get good outdoor shots. Payton made squinty faces and there were lots of shadows.
Tell me what you think!

Here's my scrapbook pages. What happened on that last post?

Wow, it has been a long time since I have posted anything worthwhile! We have been so busy! Payton's cast is off. She will be one on the 22nd and is already walking everywhere. She is so fun! We just love her so much!
Marcus is still playing football. And we are still going to games sitting in 90 degree temperatures...what happened to fall football weather???
Carsyn is in tumbling now...she loves it. Just one hour a week. She is so grown up! She is learning a ton of new things at day care since they now have a preschool program funded by a grant. She can count in spanish, recognizes letters and knows who makes good and bad choices everyday...yes she is a tattletale!
I have been busy scrapping away since Amy and I joined an online scrapping class. I wanted to show off a few photos of my pages! Hope you like them! We are working on journaling and using letters. This week we were supposed to use strips of paper for journaling!
