"If the Lord delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand."

Conversations

Our children have never been trick or treating. We decided this year we would take them to the homes of some of our family members. I was describing to CJ that when you knock on the door you say "Trick or treat." I then explained that they could do a trick or give him a trick. He smiled really big and replied, "That sounds good!"

(I stand corrected...after posting this, I was telling Ben about it, and he told me saying "trick or treat" meant something else...something mean. I guess our kids will not say that. Perhaps they will ask, "May I have a treat?!")

Getting into EVERYTHING!




Our daughter has become quite the explorer. It doesn't help that she moves a little quicker than we do. She is getting into all sorts of things. EE loves to play in the pots and pans. Her most recent discovery is the drawer that has my aluminum foil in it. She opened the box and unrolled it before I could get to her. I tried to rescue the foil, but after re-rolling for a while, I just "cut my losses." I am happy to report that EE has only managed to make it to the potty once. Boy that grossed me out, but at least she didn't put her hands in her mouth before I got to her. (By the way, teaching your two year old to keep the bathroom door closed isn't very easy!) One of her other favorite things to do is throw anything folded out of drawers or cabinets. I'm not a fan of this, but I can handle re-folding a lot easier than re-rolling foil or having heart attacks while running to the potty on rescue missions. I can't imagine what it will be like when our girl starts walking, but it is on the horizon!

I was showing the boys the video I posted of them on the blog. BA noticed the guy selling stuff walk by in the background and said, "He was saying 'Water! Water! Water!" I responded, "Right. He was trying to sell water." BA replied, "Oh, I thought he was thirsty!" Haha! All that time at the game he thought those sellers for drinks were saying "Water" or "Powerade" or "Lemonade" because they were thirsty. From the eyes of children...

1st FSU Football Game


The boys in their football uniforms


My sweet blessings



Still in love... (From time to time he still asks if he can marry EE)



Riding in style :)


The whole family- Go Noles!


EE is almost tuckered out


The boys LOVE football. They amaze me at how still they will sit and watch a game.

Align Center
BA- the only one who didn't tire out!


Despite the loud crowd, EE sleep soundly


CJ just couldn't hold out. The game was played during nap time, and by the 4th quarter, he fell asleep too!


We are very thankful to Aunt Sarah who graciously made it possible for us to go to the football game. It was the first time for all of our children. We were proud to introduce them to our alma mater. They LOVED it, and we look forward to watching the Noles play in the future.
