Emma Grace Wilson

Gracie entered the world shortly after 4 am on Nov. 23, 2003. After sitting at home all night w/ labor pains I practically had her in the kitchen. When we arrived at the hospital we were there less than 30 minutes before she entered this world. We were waiting on the doctor to arrive....yikes! She is such a sweet blessing to our family. We are so thankful for her kind heart and her spirit. I pray she continues to grow up healthy and happy. I am sure she will accomplish many great things. It is such a pleasure to be her mommy!

Birthday Weekend

What do you do when you have children with a November, December, and January birthday? You have them all at once!! And that's what we did. We went to Cherokee Farms and rode horses and the cow train.....that was fun!

Take Me Back to the Beach!!

I miss the days when the most important things were 'will I catch a wave today,' 'do we have on enough sunscreen,' and 'will I take a nap.' Busy, busy, busy is what we are. School, gymnastics, soccer, homework, raking, raking, raking leaves! And soon...Christmas shopping. Guess the beach will have to wait!

Halloween 2009

This year the kids had a little Halloween party at Gram's house on Friday night and the kids wore their costumes and played games. Then Saturday we went back over and trick or treated in between rain showers! It turned out to be great....a little wet but at least it wasn't freezing cold. Now we are sorting, organizing, and trading candy each afternoon. Fortunately mom has a little stash herself that the kids can't reach. Who says motherhood has no perks! Ha. Poor Cade wants to eat his candy every morning for breakfast. I can only imagine how long we will be looking at these orange bowls of candy.

The pre-trick-or-treating pose!

VERY Scary!

Gracie and her horse "Steady."

Ouch. Wished I could still do that!
