Some fall pics

Here are a couple of neat fall pictures for your viewing pleasure. I'm saving the best ones for the annual Christmas card handout.

And here's our little pumbkin. I'll get a photo of our big pumpkin tomorrow and post it too.

I'm tired

I am sitting at my computer and I'm exhausted. I am not done my list of things to do today (or yesterdays list, for that matter). It has been such a busy fall, I don't know why, but I'm am nearly finished. I am truely looking forward to a weekend away next weekend with a bunch of lovely ladies. I know that God will renew my strength. I am going to bed soon, I hope. Tomorrow is a full day, so I need to accomplish a few more things today.

p.s. I don't even know if I can understand my ramblings... I should go now before I say something stupid.

She's 12, and a beauty

Chelsea turned twelve this week. I can't believe how time flies. It was not that long ago that I took her home from the hospital, moved to Abbotsford with her, and the list goes on and on. Chelsea, we pray special blessings over you. Always look to Jesus as your strength. Psalm 121:8 The Lord will protect you both now and forever.

These are the spider cupcakes and little pumpkins we made for the party. We spent a lot of time coming up with the perfect crafts and nicknacks for the party. Most of what I found was from other people's blogs (thank-you ladies for awesome tips).

Chelsea and her friend jumping before the party. Look at Chelsea go. For how high she's going, she could jump into the neighbors yard.
Here are the girls. They all had a great time. But let me tell you, girls get louder and scream more as they grow older. And who said only boys wrestle, we had a couple of wrestling matches (or pile ons) at the party. Fun was definately had by all.

Here's the birthday girl and her cupcake tower. Thanks Tammy for lending us the cupcake tower. It worked out great.

Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHELSEA. We love you and are excited to see how God works in your life as you grow, both in age and in Him.

The Apple Barn

Our family had never been to the Apple Barn here in Abbotsford, but were we ever surprised at this fun fall time jewel we have here in town. We had a blast with the activities, picking apples and pumpkins. The weather was awesome too. I can't wait to go next year again.

Here are just a few photo's of us, enjoy!

(Do note how tall my girls are getting.)

My girls

I don't understand the style, but this is how Chelsea went to youth group last Sunday. Her and her friends all decided that this was cool, and dressed alike.

And Natalie, she's 11 months old now. I can't believe how big she's getting. This picture makes her look a lot older than 11 months. I thinks it's so precious.

An extension of the family...

We got to take Alayna shopping with us one day, and commented on my three girls. I thought that was so special. Here's Chelsea and Alayna, which I think is so precious.

A family photo

This was taken a few weeks back at Stanley Park, but I really liked the family photo and wanted to share it.
