I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things . I consider them rubbish, that i may gain Christ. Philippians 3:8

Front Porch.

Loving the Mums! just wanted to share some pretty pictures of the lovely fall mums for our house. The weather is starting to get real chilly and I do not know how long these pretty mums will last.
Why? would she say that you ask? Well... you see i was born and raised a southern Arizona desert girl. In another words I have no green thumb! I wish so hard that I did because , I love plants and flowers. The reality is you can take the girl out of the desert but,you can't take the desert out of the girl.(or her thumb!) he he.

Oh my gersh! that is my handsome boy! such a poser he is! love ya D.

Wow! I have two handsome boys. God is good. love you babe.

There is nothing like a son who loves his mommie! Totally not planned picture but.. my shirt perfectly matches the mum color! Styling momma.

Oh the beauty of God's handiwork. Be still and know that I am God. Thank you Lord I love you too!

Sharing some yummies!

Here are just a couple things you have to go buy and try.

I found these at Trader Joes one day. You can find them in the freezer section. Oh my goodness!
They are not at what you think when you buy them. I was pleasantly surprised. It is ice cream but, it has a soft pillow like feel on the outside. They are sooo yummy. I think they come in two other flavors also: green tea,chocolate. Go on go get them.

Love Trader Joes! So far all of their mixes are soo good. I could not wait till this one came out for the season too. I made it into a bundt cake and it was so yummy with powder sugar on top. It also makes the house smell very cozy.


So far these have been my two favorite candles that i have burned for the season. You can get them at Walmart and they are only$5.00. hot dog! Sometimes the inexpensive candles do not really smell but, these are lovely. Happy shopping.

Happy Harvest Day!

Well, We had a good time at the church's Harvest festival. Dillon went as (of course) a dinosaur. Not no ordinary dinosaur Mom he was a Carnasaurous . Hope i spelled that right? He was so proud and cute. Mia was my beautiful Snow White and she just was so lovely.

Mia i think just felt so fancy that day that she was actually enjoying getting her picture taken. Well, of course don't all of us ladies feel a little glow when we put on a pretty dress. Run with it my bella!
Arrrr! my handsome dino -Dillon. I am so glad he finally got to be what he loves so much.



Mia was digging for treasure at one of the festivals games. She found a pretty blue ring to match her outfit!


It was her first time in a bouncy! It was so fun to watch as these little puffs of mini princesses and butterflies bounce around in there. She loved it of course.

We had such a good time that when our church's festival was done we went to another one. We are festival crashers.


Dillon did this inflatable race with this other boy. It was crazy because, there was this wall at the end that they had to climb up. I was yelling at Dillon to use the rope to pull himself up but, he literally scaled the wall like a lizard it was kind of weird(spider man). Good times

Pumpkin Carving .

I am just doing some catching-up so, bear with me. Did I mention that I am very aware of my time management struggle! One day I will just be allllll caught up that I won"t know what to do with myself. I am just waiting for that day! We carved our pumpkins for fall time fun! Hope you enjoy.


Mia and mom picked out our pumpkin and Daddy and Dillon tag teamed on theirs. Go ladies!

Mia got her first feel of the gooey insides. She actually really wasn't bothered by it at all. That's my girl!


Daddy and Dillon started on their design. Ryan is an amazing at art and drawing so therefore I declared the competition unfair. I really have no gift of drawing so Mia and I just went for pretty
.


Yea! Finally done and it was a success! We all had a good time and they are ready to display. You guys did a fabulous job.
