"In The Moment" Tag
I am: a wife, mother, daughter, friend, confidant, sister
I think: about things and try to plan them out maybe a little too much.
I know: That I am extremely blessed in this life.
I want: To take out my contacts (but I have to finish this now that I've started)
I have: The 2 most awesome boys in the world.
I dislike: Being as full as I am right now (from Cheesecake Factory!!)
I miss: My Mom, Sister and friends from Renton. :)
I fear: Getting physically hurt. Being left out. Failure.
I feel: Better now that I took out my contacts. Panicky because I don't like wasting time like this. hehe.
I hear: The crickets outside. A quite and calm house.
I smell: Can't smell anything. Not sure if that is good or bad.
I crave: Learning new things. Chocolate (just not right this second)
I cry: Quite often. I am coming to grips with it. The only other woman who cries more than me is my mother in law. Love her!
I usually: Have my day lined up a day ahead of time. Vacuum everyday.
I search: For shirts when I am shopping. Some people buy shoes, I buy shirts.
I wonder: How my boys could be any cuter than they are right now at 3 years old and 18 mo old.

I am not: Capable of everything.
I remember: When each of my nieces and nephews were born. All of them.
I believe: In my family and friends.
I dance: Oh, I wish I was currently dancing. I mean really dancing like I used to. But for now dancing to our ipod favorites with my boys will do. That is a site to see. So cute!!
I sing: really well in my car. :)
I don't always: Do all my dishes if I know no one is coming over.
I argue: If I know I am right. Or at least if I believe I am right.
I write: Not enough.
I win: In the long run.
I lose: Not too often.
I wish: I could take the knowledge of life I have now and apply it when I was in HS and college.
I listen: Yes, and take advise from people. Probably too much.
I don't understand: Why some people act the way they do. Sometimes it's time to grow up.
I can usually be found: At home, at work or at Target. haha
I am scared: That some day I will wake up and know I could have done things better.
I need: To let that go and know I am trying my hardest for now.
I forget: Sometimes in the importance of prayer.
I am happy: Most of the time. I love life and this fall season!

Crossville, TN
We had such a wonderful time on our little trip to Crossville, TN. Thank you Kimberly and Meredith for joining us and had I known Joanna was going to come I would have carpooled along with her as well.
I did a little researching and found Cumberland Mountain State Park near where the boys were and decided it might be fun to talk a little walk before the concert. It is SO beautiful there! I would have LOVED camping there. It had some really pretty lake views and what seemed to have been some pretty enjoyable hiking trails. You should have seen Kim and I......we took the kiddos in the baby joggers and started out on this little hike around the lake....we turned around not to far into it (because of all the bumbs) but snaps for us for even trying. That's what happens when you get some nature girls together, we'll try anything just to enjoy some GOOD earthy smells. Hee, hee!!
The concert was a hit. The energy was on and I just felt joy being a part of it. I got to hear some songs I'd never heard them perform and all I've got to say is that the hard work is really paying off and they rock! The stage was beautiful.....AUH! It's these moments that remind me how blessed I am to have a husband who LOVES every second of his time working and the time he spends on the road is much worth it. I am totally proud of them. Anyway, Marley really enjoyed the show as well. She got to go right down in front and boogie with her Auntie Jo. She was cracking me up because she kept waving at Nate yelling "DAAAAADY". I told her he could see her yet but she insisted on continuing to wave until he did see her and when he did her whole face just lit up. She is very proud of her daddy and uncles.

Funny kids
I just want to say that we had a great time with GG and Grandpa this past weekend. All the cousins played wonderfully together. Monday night Cole and Marley especially played great together. They started making pictures with the chalk outside and quickly turned into 'lets draw on each other'. It was so cute and funny that I had to run upstairs and grab the camera. I love them!!!
Cole is trying on the Indiana Jones gear. Suits him don't ya think?!
Ok, so I got these pics all sized up and everything and like 2 days ago tried to post them but my internet has been down. Bummer. But here they are. The group shot is great! All the kids are looking and even smiling.

FALL?
Here are a couple of MarBear Jess. The one with her and GG in the tube is so spankin cute to me. I wish I could have gotten one with her when pops took her on a ride because she was bouncing up and down and I could hear her sweet singing voice clear in the boat. (camera ran out of juice though)
Can you believe it's September? I realized I put summer in my last entry and it's actually fall but holly cow it's HOT!!!! I shouldn't gripe to much though because today has been such a nice treat of cool air. I actually walked the zoo in a long sleeve. I JUST WANT TO PLAY IN SNOW!!!!!! Trip to New York anyone? :)

Fun in the Park!!!
It's been SO nice to see GG and Pops this summer. Nate and I got our new camera and I couldn't wait to put it to good use. I was way to excited to really sit down and read the manual on it I just wanted to aim and shoot! I thought it was TOO cute that Jackson and Emery were little matching buddies with their sunshiney oranges and yellows and our cute little mommas were in pinks......does this mean where going to have girls?! Haa, haa! I LOVE Liams pirate face/pose. I couldn't help but get a fun one of him in his bandana. Then there's Cole looking super sharp with his new haircut and keepin it real in the tire swing. He is growing up SO quickly.
Anyway, enjoy and we'll see you soon.

Happy Birthday Em!
Thanks for all the fun birthday wishes and gifts for our little munchkin. She felt very special. 
Here's a few photos from this last week. We made a trip to the park to feed the ducks and attend the Nashville Shakespeare festival. The kids loved it! Emery thought the best part was feeding the ducks!
We checked out a friends web page and Isa saw a photo of her daughters putting flowers in each others hair and so we had to do the same thing!
We had a great time at the zoo the other day ago. It was HOT!!! But a lot of fun to be there!
Lastly (sorry to make these so long!) I am really enjoying my rehearsals. The kids came a couple nights in a row and had a great time too! PS can anyone identify this kind of flower! It grows every year in our back yard to usher in football season!
