Grateful...

Tuesday evening I was in a car accident. I was going home and this truck pulled right in front of me. It was pretty scary since I have only been in a fender bender accident. I had my kids with me which made it very scary for me. I think I was in a bit of shock. I was a bit of a mess emotionally, I was pretty bummed out I hate car accidents.

But I was very blessed and here are the things that I was grateful for:

My kids and I were not hurt (other than slight whip lash)
The young boy admitted that it was his fault.
He had Insurance & they have been easy to work with.
The sweet lady that called the police and stayed with me in the middle of the road.
(That lady also went and got a zip lock of things for my kids to eat)
The Rental Mini Van
Rachel for coming with her kids and picking us up we were hanging out in the fire truck,
and Rachel again for bringing us a yummy dinner.
Dad getting off work to come help.
All the phone calls from Family.
The fireman who let me where there coat and use there cell phone since mine was dead.
My great husband who tried to get there as fast as he could.
I am so grateful for My Heavenly Father and how he watches over me and my family.

Dailey's Ear Piercing...










On October 23rd we took Dailey to get her ears pierced. We went with Ben and Rach who also got little Abby's ears done. I have always said if I had a girl I would pierce her ears. She cried for a minute or two but did very well. It was a little sad and I made Kevin hold her since I was a little afraid.
Dailey is four months old now. I can't believe it. Wow it goes to fast. We love her so much. She is such an adorable baby

Go Green Goblins!





Coleman's First Soccer Team



In September we signed Coleman up for Soccer. We put him on a team with three of his cousins. That may have been a mistake since they just love to hold hands and run around together. But it is so dang cute. Heck I'll pay $48 to have them run around in those cute soccer outfits and have a good time. However you were suppose to be 3 years old before the sign up date and Cole was not. So I decided if we wrote our name down to coach they would overlook the fact that he was under the age requirement. So good sport Kevin went out on the field with them and I help sub along with my brothers. Here are some cute pics of our Green Goblin Soccer Team!

Oh yeah, since Cole loves to play at home and is really good when we play with him but looses focus when he is out with the other kids. I being the good Mom I am promised him Ice Cream if he scored a goal. Well one of his fellow team mates was already set up to kick the ball into the goal than out of no where Cole jumps in and kicks it into the goal. Way to go Ice Cream for you buddy.

Summer Time Fun


We were at Susan and Andrew's house for a summer party and the kids were playing. Here is a video Kevin made.

Halloween








I am going back since I feel like I have missed some fun things but haven't had time to post them!
Halloween was so fun! Cole was Super Why this year! Dailey was a little Ladybug and Kevin and I were Johnny Lingo and Mahanna. On Halloween day we woke up and went to Cole's soccer game and than went to Creig and Mind's for the annual Halloween party. Where we ate Dinner in a Pumpkin and played games. It still weird's Kevin out to eat from the pumpkin but I sure love it.
Here are some pics. Oh did I mention I helped my Mom sew Cole's costume. It was fun to attempt it by myself but than I had to go to her and have her really make it into a costume.
Thanks Mom!

Happy 30th Baby





Kevin turned 30! He went to work and got off early and we all headed to the Zoo. Cole has not been since he was a baby and Kevin had not been in a very long time as well.
We had fun seeing the baby elephant and watching the Gorilla's eat the yellow pages. Yes the yellow pages. It was so funny to see them tear out a page at a time and shove it into their mouth.
We did miss the hippopotamus. I guess they don't have them anymore. I really wanted to show Cole. Darn. And also the classic drinking fountain out of the Lion's mouth was not open.

It was a beautiful Sunny November day. We went from the Zoo to dinner with some of Kevin's family and than came back for cake and Ice Cream. We also picked up a redbox movie, GI Joe to watch later that night. It was a fun day and we loved spending it with you Kev.
You are the best husband and Dad ever. Love you!

It's What Fun Is...





Saturday afternoon we went to Lagoon. We arrived and boy was it packed. I could not believe it. I thought Frightmares was suppose to be less crowded. It was a nice day so that is probably why it was busy. Kev, Andy, and Liz took Cole on the Tidal Wave first. He was a little afraid but he liked it. Than we took him to all the kid rides. You could not wipe the smile off his face. He just loved it.

Dailey was great too. She hung out in the stroller and when she had enough of that we would hold her. Kev and I really only rode one big ride ourselves the rest of the time was watching and riding with Cole. But that was the fun to see him ride all the rides and just love it.

Amber and Maddie came too! Cole and Madison had a great time. There was a couple of rides where they had a "little moment" where they were fighting over who controlled the ride. But all in all they did great.
I seem to get pretty uptight in crowded places when Cole is on the loose! Something I need to work on, I guess. But it was a fun day!
