So much to be Thankful for!

So Thankful and Incredibly Blessed!

As many of you know I have been so blessed with being part of a Moms group at our church. It is called Mom to Mom, and it is amazing how this group and the moms in the group have touched my life! God really does place us in the right place at the right time!

Recently at Mom to Mom I had the opportunity to share my testimony! I took this opportunity to share about what God had done in my life, and what the results have been. I spent time praying about what I should share, and spent time preparing. It was amazing to really focus and walk-through my life year by year. I know that the women enjoyed hearing my story, but really after it was all said and done I was amazed to hear my story. I was amazed because it took me back, and opened my eyes to what God has done in our lives, and how if any of those moments did not happen we would not be where we are, or who we are today.

There are have been really tough times in our life..times when we were not sure how we were going to get through. Our plans were shattered, our hearts were broken, life was not easy! But God asked us to be faithful, and he brought us through. Now we look back and would not want to change a thing.

We are so thankful for God who asked us to have a realationship with him at a young age, and asked us to give our whole Lives to him. And we are so Thankful that he has brought us down his path, not ours. We know that our creator will never give us anything we can't handle, he has proven that to us over and over again!

He has blessed us in amazing ways, and He continues to Bless us! We are so Thankful!

Last few weeks as a Family of 4

Well Daddy is not in many of these because he was the photographer :(

These last few weeks we have made a point to really have some special time as a family of four! We are all very much looking forward to Jadyn joining our family, and the many experiences we will have with her, but we wanted to make sure to have a few last extra special moments.

Here we are at the Park....just having Fun!

Janna just started hiding from us, she kinda trys to get away especially when she knows you want to get her.

Joshua Wayne and Mommy Special Love..He is my sweet pea!

Climbing on Mommy and Jadyn

Fun in the Grass.

He is becoming such a big boy! Did I mention he is now in 5t pants! Wow how he has grown!

Janna went from not really walking to running in about two weeks! She loves the freedom she now has, and loves to follow her Big brother around.

Such a cute boy!

and there is our adoarble little sunshine!

J has really been into floor puzzles, he is now able to do them all on his own...and he is so proud when he is done! Great Job buddy!

Joshua Wayne is such a great big brother! He is so in love with Janna Rose, and already loves Jadyn Elizabeth so much. He can not wait to meet her.

This was really the first time Janna Rose showed interest in Jadyn, we will see what she thinks when she makes her grand entrance!

Daddy and Janna Rose playing! He can't wait to have two little girls!

Oh Janna loves her oatmeal, and she has to do it on her own! What a mess! But so much fun!

We took a day and went out to Laguna Beach, the beach has a park and J thought that was so cool! Here are some fun pics!

Janna trys to do everything Brother does.

Here is a video of Janna coming down the slide! Wow time has sure flown by! Janna Rose is 15 months and Joshua Wayne is 3 1/2. And they sure do love life!

Halloween

We started our Halloween Celebration with a little Pumpkin carving! The kids both really loved it! With a Daddies help, we ended up with Thomas the Train pumpkin, and a little pumpkin with a cute little face for Janna. The kids dressed up at Peter Pan, and Tinkerbell! They are adorable. Daddy dressed up like a Pirate.

Trick or Treat!

Happy Halloween!

Fun Fall Days!

We really enjoy going and doing. Especially when it is really cheap or free and still great fun! We have had a few fun day trips this fall! It is so awesome that our children our flexible, and also love to go and do. Joshua Wayne asked every night before bed what we are doing the next day. Then he prays that we do something real fun! He is not a home body at all. He loves to have experience outdoors, and then talks about those experiences for days. I love that he has this passion at 3 1/2. Janna also loves it. She loves to do anything her big brother is doing.

J and Daddy at La Brea Tarpits. Joshua Wayne really loved seeing all the bones and dinosaurs.

Our first time watching Lincoln! He is such a special boy! I am so glad Melissa and Shaheen gave us the opportunity to watch him!

Janna and Lincoln playing together! So cute! They have no choice but to be best friends!

We had a real nice day at Oakglen this year! We had beautiful fall weather!

PBR

Some of you might not know what PBR stands for. I will fill you it. Its stands for Professional Bull Riding. Every since Joshua and I were dating we would go to the PBR event every year. One year we even went to the finals! It has been something we have really enjoyed doing together. The PBR is not a rodeo...there is a difference. Rodeo's are also lots of fun. But the PBR is strictly Bull riding. This was our first year bring Joshua Wayne. He was so excited. Daddy had been talking to him about it for weeks! So we all got dressed in our boots and hat, and we has a special evening with Joshua Wayne at the PBR.

The show always opens with a Salute to America, and fire in the Arena!

Here is the Arena, we were directly across from the shoots.

The horse helps round up the Bulls.

I am continually amazed by the power these animals have.

Here we are!

Me and my little Cowboy!

Awe he had so much fun!

Cute little boots!

It was a great evening!
