So cute!

Bradley brought home his first school picture yesterday. I think it is soooo cute..when I told Bradley how cute I thought it was he said "I know. It was sooo cute I couldn't stop looking at it at school.":)

He also brought home a book that his class had made about things that made them special. As we read through it I found this page:

I thought it was so sweet to see this written about Bradley:)

Even though I miss Bradley with him in school all day..I really enjoy my time with Ena. She has starting saying prayers all by herself now..as soon as I say we need to say prayer she bows her head and starts praying.:)

one more birthday suprise..

So I need to brag on my husband for a second..So after my fun day Saturday..Mike put the kids to bed and when I went into our room I found a card on the bed...

I'm really not that obsessed with HSM but I thought the stickers were a nice touch.:)So far I've been painting the house all by myself..so he got me this card and said he looked forward to helping me finish the rest.:)

By the card were these cute halloween earings.:)

And then I got in bed and grab Mike's labtop to check my email and found this card sitting there.:)When you lifted up the window it had this message and two gift cards for curtains for the kids rooms.

So there you have it..proof that I've got the best husband in the world.:) Mike did everything he could to make my day special. I feel so blessed!

My Birthday!

So Mike's been hearing "but it's my birthday..." a lot this month...and finally Saturday it really was! I had the best birthday. Mike got up with the kids and let me sleep in a little and brought me breakfast in bed..then I did some shopping and had Panda Express for lunch. Then Bradley and I went to see High School Musical 3..when the title came on people started to cheer..I was glad to see I wasn't the only HSM fan.:) We had the ward Trunk or Treat that night and then had some cookie cake when we finally made it back home:)

I had a ton for fun! Thank you for all the cards and emails and facebook messages! I'm not a big fan of getting older but I love my birthday!:)

Here's Mike posing at the Trunk or Treat..I bought that shirt at Old Navy for a buck. I love Mike..he makes me laugh!

I got this costume at Old Navy for 5 bucks!


This is one of my favorite presents..we found it a Kirkland's..I love that store..it was on sale but Mike got another 10% off because of a couple of small scratches.:) It looks so good in our front room..a perfect match.:)

Fall Festival

Bradley's best friend, Chandler, invited us to the fall festival at his church. We had a great time! Chandler was soooo excited to see Bradley there! They had games and bouncy houses and slides and cotton candy. We had fun!:)

Here is Ena all ready to go with her purse.:)

Bradley and Chandler

Where Mema go??

I meet my mom to pick up Ena today. I was so excited to see her.:) We ate lunch at Burger King and then began to say our goodbyes...it went ok at first...

Ena Gave Mema a hug..

And then Kayden joined in...

Then we went outside and Ena realized she wasn't going in Mema's car and Kayden realized Ena was leaving with me and they didn't like that idea very much...

And then we started home..and this is what I heard the WHOLE way home...

Once we finally got home she cheered up. She loved seeing her purple room and Bradley's new bed. When Ms. Shanda pulled up to drop Bradley off she ran to the door and yelled "Hurry Ba! Hurry Ba!" They hugged and went upstairs and played forever. I heard Bradley telling Ena how much he missed her and how he was glad to have her home. I love my kiddos!

my projects..

The other day I walked into the kitchen and found Bradley and Mazi just chillin out laying on the floor..

While Ena's been at Mema's house I've been working on a couple of things..A lady in our neighborhood was giving away a free bed..so I said I would take it.:) I like free stuff. When we got it was white with light baby blue strips.

Here is the before picture...notice the hearts on the side...

I'm still working on things like a comforter and curtains..but here is the after... I also painted Ena's room..it's a light purple..I really like it! I can't wait for her to see it.:) Again I am still working on curtains and a new comforter and it's time to get a big girl bed..she has started climbing out of her crib.:)
I also finally framed some pictures that my sister took like 8 months ago and hung them in the game room..I love them!

It's been nice to work and get some things done but I am very ready for little Ena to be home. I am going to meet my mom tomorrow to get her. I can't wait to see her!

Ena

My sister, Amber, went to my mom's house this weekend. While she was there she took some pictures of our little Ena.:) Thanks Amber!! She is an amazing photographer..now if we could just get Ena to smile..good thing she has such a cute sad face.:)

Here are some of her pictures...

This last one is a picture with my Grandpa's dog Bubba...When my Grandpa passed away my parents took Bubba in. He is a good dog and my kids love him.:)

Pumpkin Patch

Mike and I had a fun day with Bradley today. We both got to go on the pumpkin patch field trip with Bradley's class. We got to hang out with Bradley and a few of his friends while they picked out pumpkins and went on a hay ride and fed the animals. We had a great time.

Here are some pictures of our day...

Bradley's class

Bradley and Mrs. Bell

Bradley and his best friend, Chandler.

As soon as we got home he was ready to carve them. So he drew the faces...

And then I carved them...

Ena is spending a couple days with my mom this week. I miss her like crazy but she is having a lot of fun with her Mema. Before she left we went shopping for some new clothes..she looked so cute in her new outfit..

Peter Piper Pizza

Mike told Bradley that once he knew all his site words that we would go to Peter Piper Pizza. Last week he passed Mike's site word test so yesterday for Family Night we went to Peter Piper Pizza. We had so much fun! Bradley and Ena loved every second.:) We are so proud of Bradley!

Here he is helping Ena climb up to the slide. I think it is so cute how he helps her...he wants her to have fun, too.:)

Our cute Ena

Everyday when Bradley gets home he kicks off his shoes..and then Ena goes and gets them and puts them on...Can you see that little spider on the ceiling? Ena was trying to get it..
Bradley taught Ena how to hold her nose and go under water..
