My little beauties!!!


I'm in a play!!!

I love being on stage! If you remember me from elementary, junior high, or high school....you know that about me! :) I was in numerous plays throughout school, college included. I've been itching to get back into it, and I finally found the time! I'm in the El Reno Community Theatre's production of "A Christmas Carol". My part is small (only about 10 lines). I play Belle, Scrooge's lost love. I'm having a blast! Performaces are December 8th through 11th at 7:30pm at the Redland's Community College Theater.

I turn (gulp) THIRTY!

So I've passed the twenties. I'm no longer in that age group. :( No matter how many pepole tell me the thirties are the best time in their lives, you get wiser with age, you feel more comfortable in your own skin, blah blah....I loved being in my twenties!!! I got married to the most amazing man in my twenties, I became a Mommy to two beautiful little girls in my twenties, we bought our first house in my twenties, I found my church home in my twenties....I could go on and on and on! The twenties were awesome!!! I do realize now that I AM thirty, that it isn't as bad as I was expecting. It just really hurts to say that I am in fact a thirty year old. Blah! I'll get over it! :) And I know that many more awesome and amazing things are in store for me in my thirties. I'm looking forward to exploring this next step in my life!!

My wonderful husband and awesome sisters threw me a fabulous birthday party!!! We went to Put a Cork In It Winery in Bricktown. We had yummy hors d'oeuvres, cake, and had a wine tasting. It was so much fun!!! It was the best 30th birthday party! I'm so thankful to have such wonderful people in my life!! Thanks for an awesome party!! MWAH!!







Fall Fun!!

Fall Break (and Pinterest....I'm so addicted) inspired me to find some fun Fall things for the girls to do. They painted pumpkins, made ghosts with their hand prints, and some pumpkins. :)



TLC Field Trip!!

I got to go with Harper's class on a field trip to Chester's Party Barn and Pumpkin Patch. It was SO windy, and it took us quite a while to clean the caked-on dirt off of us once we got home....but we still had a good time. I enjoyed getting the one-on-one time with Baby H!!!!



Family Party!! :)

We also had a family birthday party! Emercyn wanted a "rainbow and unicorn" theme! She asked if I would make her a rainbow cake. I'm NOT a cake decorator, but it meant so much to her to have me make it.....so I did! Emercyn's cousins and grandmas were all there. Such a wonderful party!!!

On Emercyn's actual birthday, Jason and I covered her bedroom floor with balloons. We put streamers on the outside of her door, and we brought her breakfast in bed! So fitting for a princess!!!!




Emercyn turns FIVE!!!

Emercyn asked to have a "tea party/fashion show" for her 5th birthday! I found the most awesome company out of Edmond (www.cupcakesandtea.com) that does all-inclusive tea parties. They did it all....from sending the invitations, to the table and decorations, to the dress up clothes and makeup, to the individual sandwiches and cake, to the party favors. I was amazed!!! We invited her 8 closest friends, and celebrated in the most fabulous way!!!!!





School Days!!!!

In August, the girls both started school! Emercyn started all day, every day Pre-K at Maple Schools. She absolutely LOVES it!! Her teacher, Mrs. Shroder, is awesome! Couldn't ask for a better teacher for her first year of school!!

Harper started 2 days a week of Mother's Day Out at the same church Emercyn attended at this age. She has so much fun! We love her teachers too!! :)

AND.....this gives ME 5 hours, 2 days a week to myself. I can grocery shop alone! I can have lunch dates with Jason! I can meet friends for coffee! I can do laundry in peace! :)
