recap.

we are enjoying a nice long weekend.
the weather has been the best of the entire year.
warm and sunny days, cool and breezy nights.
this is what people in the south live for--we've finally made it to fall.

you would think with all this gorgeous weather that i would be a picture-taking fool.
nope.
not at all.

i did manage to snap a couple of my boys the other day.
they are blurry and awful.
i love them.
the pictures and the boys.

when i see these pictures, one thought comes to mind:
GOD DOES NOT MAKE MISTAKES.

my boys are happy.
they are rotten and loved.
they are brothers.
not to be so sappy all the time, but i think these things often.
i can't myself. i am an emotional, crying mess 49% of each day!

*******
wigs.

i was digging through the halloween bins when i came across these wigs.
oh my.
these are from a few wild halloween parties before we had kids.
the boys slipped them on and starting posing.
john almost peed himself laughing.
he could not breathe or talk.
just laugh.

*******
my baby girl has been having some jealousy issues lately.
wishes she could be a baby again.
she is the middle child and the only girl.
she has a soft, squishie heart.
she can cry at the drop of a hat.
extra snuggles and praise are in order.

the least i can do is curl her hair and buy her new boots.
we did both this weekend.

*******
we received a beautiful card and a donation to davis' fund this weekend.
tears were shed. a lot of tears.
we are now $500 closer to our goal!

thank you so much D & M!
just having you as friends is a gift.
knowing you are praying for us is a blessing.
we knew from the moment we met you, 13 years ago!, that you guys were something special.
kindred spirits.
i know you know, but we love you crazy lady.
big time.
