aboutTHEboys...

i'll start with something you think CAN'T be true!!!

check this picture out... jason had to leave unexpectedly for CA early this morning and he left us a note that said...
"the glass finally fell out, be sure to show riles". curious??? well, look!!!



yes, that is a piece of glass that came out of my husband's arm. he's been concerned about the place for a few weeks now, well, really it was just bugging him b/c he knew after a few days what was going on. you see, 20 (and that is NO exaggeration) years ago he was in a wreck with three other people and this was a piece of glass that is just NOW making it's way out of his body. have you ever heard of such a thing??? that thing was BIG too!!!

today has been one of those days that i really sat back and took a deep, deep breath. the boys and i went to the park - just the three of us - for more than 2 hours. it probably wasn't as exciting for them b/c there weren't any kids there, but it was so something that i needed. i took time to sit and listen to them, enjoy chasing them, talk to them about the sky and the trees, and the wind and why it had to be sooo cold (it wasn't really that cold). but it's rare that we are totally alone at the park - and it was kind of nice!

so, on that note - i wanted to share some pictures of those kiddos!

this one was reed climbing up the stairs making some weird, weird faces!!! here is one of the cute ones!



this one is riley at the pumpkin patch a few weeks ago. he LOVES going there! doesn't he look so big???



and to top it all off - i found my new fall/winter shoes that you can buy here.



I think they are so, so cute, so if you don't - well, don't burst my bubble at least for a week! ps. dd, check out the name of them! :-)

i sure hope you all are enjoying this fall weather. i so enjoy it!!!
ps. yes, that is a christmas song playing as the #1. i heard it the other day on the christian radio station and i've been thinking about it ever since. it's powerful!
