It was a crummy afternoon yesterday...but again while driving and being really irritated I tried to think of blessings. Low and behold there were some...
1. I found a last minute babysitter
2.There was light traffic as I hurried home from Scottsdale
3. Brandon accomplished an errand for me
4. Friends who are willing to give of old Halloween costumes

The beauty in today was watching Boston ride up and down the sidewalk on his tricycle. You see, he got the trike for Christmas last year and rides it everyday but just in the last few days he has figured out how to use the pedals. His excitement is enthralling. Today as I sat outside and cheered him on as he taught me a great lesson..."Never give up, someday you'll get it."

It's Yoga time again!

Because of not feeling well I've taken the last two weeks off yoga...however, I'm back now!

Yoga will start again tomorrow morning at 5:15! Anyone's welcome!

I needed this... a date with my boys. Being so sick I didn't spend any fun time with boys over the past week but today was different. I picked up Carson early from school much to his surprise and the three of us headed out for a day of fun and fun is what we had! Then they were able to go with me to teach my yoga class tonight and we didn't get home until 7pm. We we're gone all day and I really enjoyed this "mother/sons" date. Today I'm thankful for being able to spend the entire day outside and laugh with my two boys.

What a beautiful day to enjoy pushing around Boston in his little car that he covets. The back porch had just enough room to be a "crash and burn" highway!

Happiness is...

Listening to two little boys giggle as they play in their "fort" made under the dining room table.
Sure it looks like a tornado hit our living and dining room but I'd rather enjoy the tornado while listening to giggles than having a very clean yet quiet home.

The Pumpkin Man

Yesterday Brandon was out working and Boston was still playing with his cousins so it was just me and Carson hanging out. We were able to work together on a school project he had. We turned his pumpkin in to a "Pumpkin Man" and together we wrote a cute little poem about this man. I relished in watching his creative side come out and spending a good uninterrupted hour side by side. We both need that. My joy this day was seeing him as he learns and grows. It was fun to just hangout and laugh with my not-so-little boy.
