Its Fall!!

I love the fall! Apple Picking, Leaves changing colors, colder weather? well kinda. i can't wait to go to the pumpkin patch this year. This will be a new experience for us.

On a different note, our beach trip was sooo great! The weather was nice and we loved the Oceanlakes campground we stayed at. Especially having a golf cart to ride on everywhere. Ava and Alyssa did great in the car ride down and back. What a shocker we had when we were coming back and gas shot up to 4.79!!!! and we still haven't really recovered from that because gas is still 3.89 that is if you can find it anywhere!! I have never experienced anything like this before. Its getting harder and harder to live on the paycheck thats coming in, and before long P's plant will be moving to Georgia and then there will be no paycheck. at least a steady one. He is doing real estate so if anyone needs to buy or sale, I know a GREAT realtor!!!haha

I will post some beach pics soon. i have some good ones!
Ava and i are still doing the learning to read book, and its going pretty good, she loves going to her K-3 class and is learning a lot of sign language.

catch up time



Long time no see....
We have been busy lately. Here is a little of what's been going on in our house:


AJ learned how to roll over




She found her feet and then learned she could put them in her mouth
AE started gymnastics/dance class



found out that my cat likes coffee...she would not stop bothering me it was like i put cat nip in it or something!!


AJ was dedicated to the Lord



And we got to see p's mom



AE also started k-3 and i have started teaching her how to read. i am using the book called "How to teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons". One of my friends used this book and her 4 yr old was reading on a 2nd grade level! my SIL also used this book for all her girls and they were reading at 3 and 4. so we're going to try it. i'll let you know how we are doing later.


well we are off to the beach hopefully the hurricanes will stay away!!!
