Uh oh....

One day during nap time, I walked in to find Sadie had hidden a pair of scissors in her room and cut all of her dolls hair, her curtains, some blankets. While trying to remain calm and not fly off the handle, while cleaning up the mess, I was thinking, "I'm actually impressed she didn't cut her own hair." Then I thought, wait... lets check. I was WRONG, she had cut a HUGE amount on the side. I thought there was NO way that this could be fixed. We waited until Tripp woke up from his nap and took him to daddy's office while Sadie headed to the beauty salon. She did a great job! I held her head still the whole time (luckily she has thin hair, so it didn't take long), because she was excited to look around at everything. When they were done, I was impressed out cute it turned out. She looks so much more grown up! We headed back to daddy's office to show him. He liked it, but was sad to see her look like a big girl. She did tell me we had to make sure a hair bow could go in it still ;)

This year Sadie is in dance class! She has so much fun with the other girls in her class! I love watching her really concentrate and learn! Half of the class is spent doing ballet and the other half is tap. I thinking she enjoys tap most. If you ask her what she likes most about going to dance, its playing with the babies and seeing her friends! (They use babies to teach them specific ballet positions). Here are a few pictures from her first class:

Halloween

This year we hosted our play groups Halloween party, which turned out to be a lot of fun! We had a house and back yard full of cute kiddos and their mommies and daddies. It was nice to have all of the families come over.

A few weeks later, on actual Halloween, our church did a Trunk or Treat. The kids liked it, but there were older kids that had costumes that were a little too scary for Sadie and Tripp. We stayed a little while and then took the kids trick or treating to a few houses in the neighborhood near our house. We had a great time!! We have found out that since we don't really live in a neighborhood and since it is on the our skirts of town, we have NO trick or treaters. This means we don't have to worry about candy while we take the kids trick or treating.

Here are a few pics from the two nights:

What in the world is going on!?!?

Man, I've taken some time off from blogging. Here is a run down, in pictures, of what we've been up to!

Our past few weekends

Since moving into the house, I've been awful about taking pictures and blogging!! Two weekends ago, Mimi & Poppy came into see us and our new house. Poppy was also kind enough to do some handy work for us. Tripp's room didn't have a ceiling fan and we had a light outside that needed to be replaced. We also enjoyed a dinner at the famous Underwood's. It was nice to enjoy some time at home with them.
This past weekend, we had time with our friends, The Gregorys. They were such champs! They have 3 year old, Kendall who Sadie loves, and a 3 week old little girl, Kenedy. Kenedy was awesome, hardly made a peep and only woke up 1 time both nights!!!! We mainly hung around the house and let the kids play, since it rained a major part of the day Saturday. Sunday, Jeff, the kids, and I went to Stephenville to get a bed my niece had that she's not using for awhile so we're going to "store" it for her. Another fun weekend!!

Where have we been???

Well, its been over a month since I've posted! This is partly due to us moving into our new house. We put our house on the market in May, sold it 2 weeks later and moved into our new house in July! We are so happy with our move. As much as I loved my last house, the neighborhood was shady and we didn't want to stay there for much longer with all that was going on. We moved to the edge of town on a little over an acre to a fairly new house. The kids' rooms are so much bigger and they love them! We also have our trailer set up out here and lots of room for visitors. So, friends and family, come on!!

Sadie's 3rd Birthday party!

Last weekend we had Sadie's birthday party here at our house. We had so much fun being "Wild about Three"!!! We got a bounce house and 2 small blow up pools. It was HOT, but we still enjoyed it. We had some amazing friends and family come! The Gregorys and Hursts drove quite aways so they came in early and afterwards we all went to eat dinner at Humphrey Petes. We sat on the back patio and let the kids play on the playground. We are so blessed with some of the greatest people in our lives, that along with Jeff and I, love our children!
