HALLOWEEN

Here's a few things we've been up to since the summer:

1. Matt went to a wedding in California the same day I went to a friends wedding in Utah

2. My mom, sister and her 2 kids came to visit for a week and we had so much fun

3. Lots of time spent at the park, now that its only in the 70s and 80s instead of 90s and 100s

4. Texas State Fair.....deep fried cookie dough

5. Pumpkin Patch (this particular October day it was 90 degrees)

6. Halloween Parties

7. World Series Game 5....TONIGHT!

Here's Parker in his little dragon costume!

I love the pudgy side view :)

A princess, a knight and a dragon

EVEN THOUGH....

Matt is one of the most ridiculous people I know, that just so happens to be one of the reasons I love him SO much! After 3 years of marriage he makes me the happiest!

Can everyone believe I just posted twice in one day?

MY SON IS ONE! well 13 months....

Well everyone I know its been a long time, but I'm not even going to apologize because I've been having WAY too much fun and been way too busy to even blog about it. But I do have a second today and can't resist showing everyone (who even checks my blog anymore since its been so long) the very cute pictures of my favourite little boy!

He's already 13 months and I can't believe my baby is such a big boy, guess its time to start thinking about getting a new cute little baby :) Just kidding we're not going to try just yet, but this little guy will need some siblings eventually.

AIR SHOW!

A week ago Saturday we went to an awesome Air Show in Fort Worth. I was supposed to go to a Stake Relief Society thing that morning but I weighed my options- spend quality time as a family (which is somewhat rare) or go to an uplifting RS event...sorry Relief Society family wins! Five other families from the ward met us there and we had a great time watching the planes, and watching Parker watch the planes :)

The exact moment this picture was taken Parker's hat had blown off his head and into the helicopter, you can see it going through the window in the picture.

Love his fat chubby cheek grin!

TIME

I've been thinking a lot about time this past month. I would consider myself an organized person and I'm constantly making lists of things to get done...which never ends of course because by the time I cross laundry off the list and move on to the others it's just about time to add laundry back on again and so on. I've been wanting to post about Hawaii and Parker and so many things but can't find the time...but I have time for my favorite tv shows...it's hard for me to find time to read my scriptures everyday, but I have time to read other books...so I guess I realized I have plenty of time to do things I need to and plenty of time to do things I want to...I realized I'm not as organized or disciplined as I may thought I was, I need to do a lot better job at organizing my time!

LOVE OF MY LIFE

Sadly I must admit that I didn't do much of anything for Matt for Valentine's Day, and he did some really sweet things for me...So I am going to tell you the top ten reasons why I love my husband, in no particular order!

1. He makes me laugh every single day (reference the picture below)
2. He loves me unconditionally, no matter what
3. He honors his priesthood and is a great example to me of service
4. He always does everything I ask of him without complaint
5. He is a sweet and loving father
6. He is so honest and is not afraid to say what he thinks or feels, but also listens to what others have to say, he helps me to express myself better
7. He is so much fun to be around, no matter what we're doing
8. He is always concerned about my health and happiness
9. He reads and prays with me everyday
10. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me!

* Sorry if this was too sappy for some, but "I'm in love, I'm in love and I don't care you knows about it!"

FAMILY AND PARKER PICS 2010

Here's a recap of the last couple months....all the holidays were great and it was fun to spend it with lots of family and friends! We truly are very blessed. Matt is pushing along through school as best he can. I think he's tired of lectures all day every day and is really looking forward to started clinical stuff this summer. Parker and I are doing great and loving every minute of being home together. Parker is growing so fast and I love him more every day. We decided to get some good pictures of the little man and the whole fam together, so please enjoy :)
