Fall Days

Fall is by far my favorite season and for so many reasons:

1. Weather is gorgeous (not too hot, not too cold)
2. Trees are beautiful
3. Football games and sweatshirts
4. Pumpkin Spice latte's
5. Apple Cinnamon
6. Picking apples and pumpkins
7. Baked goods
8. Everything burnt orange, brown, and yellow.
9. Cute boots and clothes
10. My wedding was a gorgeous fall day in October (3 years ago)

This weekend we decided to enjoy one of the many fall activities and pick apples and pumpkins...I was a little exhausted because we moved on Saturday and I already wasn't feeling well (like everyday for the last 3 months), but getting outside in the cool weather was just what I needed....at least for the time being.

We had fun and picked the cutest/ugliest pumpkin ever (pics to come when we carve it)


Here are some pics from apple picking:

I will be so sad for fall to end...I am so not fond of the next season :)

Love Bug

Bentley is by far the best gift I ever received….I just absolutely adore that little fur baby of mine.

Lately, my spoiled little guy just sits by the closet where we keep his food and treats and stares at it until it is opened. It cracks me up (in pieces and halves).

We had my family over last weekend and in the middle of all the laughter and fun he is over by the closet just sitting. My mom asked me if he did something wrong and we told him to sit in the corner…it actually looks pathetic and sad.

I had to take a picture of this. Of course we never feed him so he sits and waits for his monthly meal.

After he ate dinner and I was cleaning up I looked in my living room and in the middle of all my pillows on the floor was my little love bug peaking out….he is totally saying please do not make me move…this is so comfy!

I just can’t get enough of him and his cutie little bootie ways :)

XOXO

GOOD THINGS COME IN small PACKAGES!

Hey Hey!

Feels like forever and a day since I blogged last….things have been pretty crazy lately. Life just seems to keep getting more and more intense and with every set back there is something that seems to bring us joy and happiness. I feel like it is a sign from God letting us know that he loves us and answers our prayers when he feels we need them most.

My husband has been out of work for a year and a half and it is been so stressful for us. He is currently in school studying his little butt off trying to make a better future for us and our family, but his unemployment runs out in less then a month and we are not financially able to live on one income. He is a veteran so we receive so much help from the VA and we are lucky his tuition is 100% covered….but unfortunately he is going to have to work and go to school.

In the middle of all this stress and uncertainty we were given the best news we could have received…we are having a baby!!!! I know most people would probably scream at this point considering the financial burden I have already discussed, but I know we can make it through anything and I am putting all my faith in God to lead us in the right direction….he is truly amazing and I know my prayers will be answered…just not in the order I had thought :)  But who am I to understand or try to fix his plan? He is the master mind behind all of this…I am just the pawn.

We are beyond elated for our news of joy and excitement and also a little scared and nervous for what the future holds.

So here is my first ultrasound picture (I tried to scan this in and it didn't come out the best)…I am 10 weeks pregnant and my due date is May 2^nd!

God is so Good!!!!

XOXO
