Does it get better than this?

I mean, seriously, how many of you do this when you niece and nephew come over?!! Yeah, I know, we're the best!

Fall Pictures...part 2

Fall Pictures...(or part of them anyway)

Me and my man

We have very few photos of just Jesse and I. So, we decided to go have a little fun yesterday afternoon. Our tree in our front yard was so beautiful.

Showing off her new bracelet

So just disregard the q-tip. She barely had it in her ear, and besides, it was making her happy!

Moose...

Today we went to the library for story time. Look what the boys made....

Aren't they too cute?

This week, O. and M. received a package in the mail. Yes, beautiful bracelets! M. did not want her picture taken. We'll have to try for a different day. But little miss O. was more than happy to pose for pictures....

See my pretty bracelet?

I've been tagged

Thanks to my friend Abby I have now been tagged! (It's okay Abby, really, it is) Okay, we'll see what I can think of......

1. I love to bake/decorate cakes (always wanted to open a bakery)
2. I used to be organized (makes it really hard to deal with NOT being organized now...I know "how good it can be", and exactly what I'm missing!)
3. I love color. All rooms in my house are a different color.
4. I have always wanted twins...and now have them...just in a different way then most.
5. I love mocha granitas, sometimes english toffee mocha granita or huckleberry mocha granita. (really, you should try them sometime--although, I have traveled around, and really, there are only about 2 places who can truly make a good granita)
6. My favorite flower is tulips
7. I love getting phone calls

Now, I am tagging.....Rebecca, Kristi, Jean, Signe, Jaclyn, Miranda and Brianna.

Photographers...

Here are our camera men......

Last night we went to the Care Net annual fundraising banquet. It was a great time with friends, and our first date night since....well, we can't remember (maybe last year's banquet?), plus, a great cause! We like to use this time as an excuse to for a chance to get dressed up (you know, once a year isn't too bad). Here are a couple before shots that our camera men took.

Please pray

Please pray for my friends, Marty & Carole Phillipson. I had the privilege of meeting them in Ethiopia. They adopted two adorable little brothers. We stayed together at the same guest house for a couple days, and also met up at the airport when it was time to head home. Saturday their younger son, Samuel, had an accident involving their tractor. Please hold him, his brother, and the whole family up in prayer.

Thank-you,
Ashley
