17 years..

Today I have been married for 17 wonderful years.. Just wanted to tell my hubby how much I love him and how amazing he is. I wouldn't trade him for anything.. Here is to 50 more.. I love you Troy, Happy Anniversary!!

Also a shout out to my Grandma.. Happy Birthday Grandma, you are the best Grandma a kid could ask for.. Love getting your sweet cards in the mail. Love that you remember everyone.. You are one of a kind.. Lucky to have you. I love you!

The Pumpkin Patch...

We went to this awesome pumpkin patch this year, and wouldn't ya know it that right as we were leaving, both of my camera batteries were dead.. Ugh.. So my sweet sister took some with her Iphone.. :) Love this time of year, the leaves changing and the cooler temps, the starting of fall.. LOVE!!!

My Studebaker...

Hard to believe that I now have 2 teenagers.. Today my Stockton turned 13.. He is such a good kid. He is always making us laugh. His love for basketball is nothing less than admirable.. I love watching him play something with his whole heart.. He is such a great brother to his siblings and a sweet cousin to his cousins. Love that he gets good grades without much nagging from me.. He takes pride in school and his grades, love that about him and Courtnee... I hope Cole and Jaden develop this trait.. :) Just a few pics from his birthday.. Love you buddy, Happy Birthday!!!

His friends..

Nothing Bundt Cake, our fave.. :)

In Memory...

Went to the Remembering field... So amazing to see all of these flags... Simply takes your breath away..

Ryker Roo...

Crazy how just a year ago I was watching as this precious little guy came into the world, and now chasing him as he runs amuck.. I love this baby as if he were one of mine, and often refer to him as my 5Th baby.. Can't believe where the time went over the last year, but so happy I have got to watch him grow up into a little toddler... A few pics from his first birthday..
I love you Ryker, so very much..

Cute decor..

What a little Stud...

Loved the ribbon.. :)

So pretty..

Such hard work.. :)

Happy Birthday Colton!!

Shout out to my cute nephew who is now 15.. Crazy that the 3 kids we always called the triplets (Braden, Colton & Courtnee) are all now growing up. What a handsome young man this kid has turned into.. I bet the girls are just blowing up his phone.. Happy to call him my nephew, such a great kiddo.. Happy Birthday Colton.. :)
