July

Well I unintentionally took a few weeks off from blogging. Life happened and blogging took a backseat but I'm back. :) 

I know we still have a week left in July, but it has been a super busy month. These are just a few of the events that have occurred this month. 

It's been a bad month for air conditioning at our house. The a/c in my husband's truck went out and the a/c in our house wasn't cooling. We are also in the middle of a heatwave in Alabama so both of those had to be fixed. They are done and behind us so hopefully we don't have any more problems out of them for a while. 

The kiddos needed new shoes, and with growing feet they really needed to be with me so we could make sure they fit. Brody got a cool pair of Nike's that he is loving. Evie found these cute Leopard shoes that she just fell in love with. Of course we had to test them out on a walk one evening when it was actually cool enough outside.





Our sweet Emma somehow injured her eye last Saturday. The vet said that is was a deep scratch. She has been in a cone all week and we have doing antibiotic drops every few hours. My heart was broken for her but in about 2 days she started acting much more like herself. That made me feel so much better because she has the cutest personality. She is just ready for the cone to be gone, but she doesn't let it slow her down much though. At the recheck Wednesday the vet said she was making lots of progress. They are rechecking her today and we are praying that she gets the all clear and that she won't have any long lasting effects. 
Brody cuddles.

Evie cuddles.

This was a few days before she hurt her eye. She loves to go on car rides. 


I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Pumpkin Patch 2020

 We visited our local pumpkin patch yesterday. We were not able to go last year, so we were so happy to go this year. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny 70 degree day. It was very bright outside so it was hard to keep our eyes open for pictures. Haha.  We had so much fun in the corn maze, walking through the sunflower field, and playing in the big hay stack. We got to share some of our favorite foods boiled peanuts and nachos. Before we left we rode the hayride to pick our pumpkins and finished up the day with a funnel cake. I am so thankful for these sweet memories with my family. We will carve our pumpkins tonight and get ourselves prepped for the week ahead. I hope you have a wonderful week! Hope 

10

 I have neglected my little corner of the internet lately but I am back to post more life updates.  One major event was at the end of September this special boy turned 10! How in the world have ten years passed since this precious boy entered our lives?!?!? Chris and I wanted a baby so much. We prayed for this sweet boy for over a year. After a year of trying and some help from modern medicine we got a our gift from God in the form of our precious Brody Reid.  I miss the days of watching Dino Dan and Team Umizoomi with him, but it is amazing watching him grow into the big kid he is. Now his days are filled with soccer and Fortnite, but he hasn't lost his love for dinosaurs or Pokemon. We are so very blessed to raise this smart, funny, kind hearted boy.   Have a blessed week! Hope   

First Day of School 2020

 On Monday my babies started back to school. In these uncertain times we had different options on how we would begin school this year. We could do virtual public school, go back to the traditional classroom, or homeschool. At this point my husband and I decided that it would be best for our kiddos to be back in the traditional classroom. There isn't an easy choice about school in these crazy times. Our school is smaller, they are wearing masks, and taking social distancing precautions. We have prayed about our decision and feel we did what is best for our family. I am praying for the parents out there that are having to make choices about what to for school this year, please know I respect whatever choice you make and I know it's not easy.   How did my babies grow up so fast!?! Brody's first last day of elementary school. 4th grade Evie's first day of 2nd grade.  I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope
