Fall Frenzy

I've fallen off the blogging wagon a bit lately, but I'm so thankful for the reasons why!

First, I had the opportunity to take a trip to the dotmom conference in Birmingham with my mom the last weekend of September. It was such a fabulous time of fellowship with other moms and there was some great bible and life teaching to be had! I came home renewed and refreshed...ready to be a great wife and mom! Not sure if I've applied all I learned very well, but I'm trying. :)

We've also been busy with fall soccer at the YMCA. Levi moved up to U6 soccer and Scott has been coaching his team. I've been too busy keeping up with Shiloh to take many photos of the games, but hopefully I'll get some before the season is over. :)

In addition to all of the above, we've also been busy doing topless reading...or, at least Shiloh has.


...and superhero training.
Care to come join the fun? :)

Distractions and a Trip to Yogi Bear

I'll admit it. I've been a blogging slacker lately. We've suffered through tax deadlines and soccer practices and all kinds of busyness (and I don't say "suffer" lightly). However, one of the main reasons blogging has taken a back burner is I've developed a new romance over the past couple of weeks. With Pinterest.

Now if you're not on Pinterest, then you can't possibly understand the addiction. I didn't either. There are just SO MANY wonderful recipes and crafts and fun holiday activities and sewing projects and...well, you get the picture. Scott is already tired of seeing me spray paint pine cones and cabinet pulls and I only got started over the weekend. :)

Anyway, we made a weekend trip to Pelahatchie last weekend and spent a couple of days at Jellystone Resort. I didn't take my real camera, so a few cell phone photos were all I got!

Here's one of our favorite places at the resort. The waterpark.



Levi spent a large amount of time doing this. He even talked his mommy and daddy into sliding a few times. Shiloh went twice, but she was NOT a fan.


The boys brushed up on their miniature golfing skills.


And even little Shiloh took a break from the fabulous playground to swing a club a few times. Thankfully, she didn't hit herself or anyone else.
