is almost November!! Where did the time go? Alisyn's birthday is Nov 12th, I am going to have to do her bday party on the 8th because of Eric's schedule this month. He pretty much works every weekend in November. Then before I know it we will be doing Thanksgiving. I love this time of year with getting to spend time with family that we dont see much. My moms family is finally getting together this year, we kinda fizzled and didnt do anything at all last year so i havent seen some of them for over a year now. I am excited about that. I am also looking forward to Christmas morning because my parents bought Austin a compound bow for Christmas and we are going to get the accessories to go with that, then we got the girls Nintendo dsi's and my parents got them accessories so I told my parents that I didnt know how we were going to get this to all work out this year because if we celebrate with them first, my girls will be like.......um what good is dsi stuff without a dsi but if we do our christmas first here then austin will be like this stuff does me no good. So they said they will come here on Christmas morning and let the kids open all our stuff together. So that will be a lot of fun I think. Normally Eric's dad comes over and watches the kids open some gifts and I always enjoy having a grandparent here to see that. I cant imagine not having kids around on Christmas morning. So anyway, its just blowing my mind but also getting me super pumped that we are just about to start in on the holiday season!!

me either!! I am so excited, its because I got my fiance to share it with this year with me and JT, yet my family also. My brother, who is doing truly awesome, is coming November 13 for nearly two weeks....I am just so happy, so I hear you on all the excitment!!

This is the best time of the year. I am so excited for Christmas, it should be fun watching Olivia opening her gifts.

I'm excited too. We should not only have a new baby for Christmas but a new house too and Vaughn is at that age where he's just starting to get it so too much fun. Bailey and DH are always a blast at Christmas so I know they will pump up the rest of us.
I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS!

Me too!!!! I can't believe the holidays are getting so close, it's sooo cool! Almost time to break out the Christmas decorations and music!

I can't believe this year is nearly over either. Seems like we were just sharing Christmas pics and stories. Wow! I love this time of year too. It will be awkward for us this year, what with getting a divorce and still being in the house together. I'm just kind of looking forward to getting this year over with and I know next year will be awesome!

time keeps going by faster and faster

I love Christmas, i was thinking yesterday about how it's already almost november, our anniversary is the 18th and i'm dreading thanksgiving b/c everyone always fights about where we go or how long we stay there and i hate dealing wtih teh family drama so i'm pretty sure this year i am just staying at home and dh can take nicholas wherever he wants to go, then we get to decorate for Christmas and i'm taking a very relaxed approach to Christmas this year, i'm buying nicholas a few big handy manny stuff, and just a few small things and we are good lol, of course it looks like dh won't be home for Christmas so i'll have to go see him if he can't get off work long enough and i'm ready for the next few months just to fly back to get that bull over with so he can be home everynight

so hard to believe holidays are creeping up but I am sad in way too because I know my husband will miss it with us this year and next but I am grateful that I do get to be with my girls though.

Time seems to go faster as my kids get older. Seems like they were just newborns, but Riley is in Kindergarten already. Personally, I am not ready for the holidays and would love it if time slowed a little.
