Time is Flying!

 

 

I remember when I was a teenager and time dragged on and I was constantly wishing it would go faster.  Not so much anymore!  Now that I am an adult ,and especially a mom, I feel like I can't keep track of the time because it is flying by. 

 

Fall has arrived and we have had a great few weeks.  I will explain some highlights through pictures.

 

 

We took the kids to see Turbo at the movies.  This was Ella's first movie and we were a little concerned that she was so young and wondered if she would sit that long.  She doesn't really watch TV yet at home.  She will watch a few minutes of a show but is mostly playing with toys and half watching.  Anyway she did amazing!  She snacked and was interested in pretty much the first hour.  The last hour she didn't care much about the movie but she stayed in her seat and chatted quietly to herself.  Owen was almost 3 (or maybe already 3 can't remember!)  when he saw his first movie. He loves going to movies!  Turbo was cute and he really loved it.

 

The flash was SO bright she couldn't keep her eyes open

Beech Grove has a fall festival every year.  Owen is always so excited to go and ride rides.  This year he said he was only riding the big rides because he isn't a baby anymore...BUT he couldn't resist riding the motorcycles with his sister.

In line for the Wipeout.  My boy is quite the daredevil!

My mother in law had a birthday so the family got together and made her dinner.  The cousins have not all been together in a long time so they were happy to get together and be loud!

Everyone had to take turns sitting on Papaw's motorcycle!

Dustin and I had a wedding anniversary September 26th.  We went to Ohio for two nights of relaxation.  The kids stayed with my Aunt June and Uncle Jeff.  Owen also got to spend time golfing with his Grandpa.  They had so much fun and so did we.  It was EXACTLY what we needed.  We saw a movie...went out to eat (a lot!) went shopping...and most importantly, we took naps and woke up whenever we wanted to. It really was a perfect time and I must say that every year of marriage gets better and better.   I was sad to see our weekend end but so excited to see the kiddos. 

Our friends recently got a heater for their pool so yesterday we went swimming at their house.  Ella had to model her first ever bikini.  She was so proud and excited to try it on.  It was weird to be swimming in October but the water was warm!

Ella isn't even two yet and has some pretty great cheer motions!  She loves to watch Cheer Perfection with her momma!
