Fall Fun .......

It is my favorite season of the year....Fall! I love the beautiful, warm colors and the cooler weather. I love hot drinks and baking, and the sight of pumpkins, fall wreaths, and scarecrows. It is such a beautiful time of year. With the season has come many fun opportunities for us and the kids. Here are some pictures of Grayson passing out gospel tracts in his Luigi costume with Daddy, me and our Ella-bug, and some pictures of our visit to the pumpkin patch! Part 2 will follow.....Enjoy!!

Daddy and Luigi...it was a huge hit!

Passing out gospel tracts....we were able to pass out 400 and we pray that God uses the tracts as a tool to unharden many of the losts' hearts. We were so proud of Grayson......

My Top 10 Favorite Things!

I was inspired by another blogger to blog about my ten favorite things.....so here they are!

1. Our Lord Jesus Christ and how Amazing He is!! He paid the ultimate price for which none of us deserve!
2. My wonderful family who bring so much joy to my heart!

This includes my wonderful husband, sweet Grayson, and beautiful Ella! Also, my wonderful parents, little sister and younger brother.....my wonderful in-laws and sister-in-law....and everyone else who I call family!
3. The ability to work with kids.....I hope to one day homeschool but right now I am really enjoying working with such sweet kids and amazing educators.
4. Lazy Sundays-I love being in my pj's and lounging around the house with my family....those Sundays are usually pankcake mornings too!
5. Starbucks Skinny White Chocolate Mochas and just the ambience of being in Starbuck's at night

6. Seeing other people happy brings joy to my heart. It's also good to have a humble, servant's heart...and I just love if I can brighten someone else's day or just be able to witness someone else's happiness.
7. The smell of Grayson and Ella after a bath....still use Johnson and Johnson's baby bath stuff
8. My husband's hugs and encouraging words when I have a rough day.
9. Groovy's -I have spent too much money there but they have the cutest stuff...
10. The feeling you get at Christmas when you are sitting near the tree and looking at the people you love around you, and think about what the day means (the birth of our Saviour), and realizing how blessed you really are...oh and the smell of all the treats baking in the oven...lol.

Our Growing Ella and Son, Luigi!

It has been a crazy couple of weeks! The Lord has been so good to our family. He is so amazing and gives us so much more than we could ever deserve! Praise Him!
We have enjoyed nice movie game nights with Grayson and Ella, and have just enjoyed having such wonderful family time. It's so amazing to see how the kiddos are growing. Grayson says things that just amaze us and Ella is doing things so fast already. She will be 4 months on the 24th and is already sitting up in bouncers and walkers. She was walking across the kitchen floor in her walker already! I can't believe that my little baby is growing so much! Grayson has been so inquisitive and asking us how to say things in Spanish. He just turned 3 and is so intelligent (okay, so we're biased...)......if only he could apply all of that brain power to consistently go potty. Lol!
Joey and I were blessed enough to go to a Revival Series on Saturday. It wasn't like a tent revival or anything like that....it was just a lot of amazing evangelists that spoke about how to witness. They were all so Godly and it was great to meet people who are so humble and that are such servants. We got to go out after a days worth of speakers and witness to share the gospel and the great news of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, after being there barely 30 minutes at a outdoor venue, we were asked to leave because someone had complained that the cross was offensive. The police walked us out and made sure we went to our cars. We were not doing anything weird or loud, we literally just got there. It was humbling and kind of scary that our county is changing so much. It is now so liberal that being a true Christian will soon be something that is hard to be. Please pray for those whose hearts are hardened. It was a great, eye opening experience though!

He was upset because I told him he may have to take it off!

Now back to the babies! I k now Grayson is 3 but he is still my baby, too! Here are some pictures of my son, Luigi! Grayson tells us we can only call him Luigi (from Super Mario Brothers) now and he wears his Halloween costume hat everyday.....he even slept in it! Also are some pics of Ella and her big blue eyes! Enjoy....
