I'm back!

I realize it has been JULY since I lasted posted! I can not believe I have not blogged since then. I do however read blogs all the time. I've just been busy with school and the boys. (I know that is always my excuse). Anyways, I realize no one probably even comes to my blog anymore, but I'm really going to try and blog more often! We have had a lot going on and the boys are getting so big. I have lots to share!

Right now, we are getting ready for the Holiday season! This is my favorite time of year. Although, I wish it would actually get cold and stay cold here in Georgia! We've had warm temperatures all through out November and I'm ready for some cooler temperatures. I'm also wishing it would stop raining!! We have gotten so much rain lately. It's a complete turn around from the drought we experienced previously and I guess I'd rather have rain than no rain, but this rain is really messing Josh up with his work (He owns a landscaping business). So when it's raining, he's not working, which means he's not making any money! Hopefully, next year we will have a happy medium between the no rain at all and the floods we've been having this year :) Anyways, I'm so excited for Christmas this year. Hayden is 3 and will be at such a fun age! He's actually got some things he really wants and he's actually into Santa this year (and we have definitely NOT been using the Santa is watching you thing to get him to do things...like go to bed at night;) ). I'm excited about watching him on Christmas day. We took him and Cayson a couple of weeks ago to ride on The Polar Express in North Carolina and Hayden had so much fun!! He loves trains and was just so excited to actually get to ride on it (that is where are picture up top is from and if you noticed, Hayden is not looking at the camera, because he is too busy looking at the train). Here's some pictures...

Josh and Cayson before getting on the train!

All 3 of my boys!! We had a lot of fun!

We also celebrated Cayson's 1st birthday this month! He turned 1 on November 3rd. He also got his 1st hair cut. He's looking like such a little boy and walking everywhere. I can't believe how quickly this year flew by. I'll try and post some pictures of his Birthday in another post. This one's getting kind of long!

I know I have mentioned a lot about Christmas and we haven't even gotten to Thanksgiving yet. We are very excited about Thanksgiving as well!! We are going to South Carolina on Wednesday and staying until Sunday. We are doing Thanksgiving on Thursday with my family and then Friday with Josh's. Josh and I are having a movie date night on Friday as well. We figure we won't be hungry after all the food we will have stuffed our faces with Thursday and Friday so we are forgoing dinner and going to see New Moon and The Blind Side. Two movies, we have been dying to see. (Well maybe not New Moon for Josh so much, but he loves me so he's going to sit through it with me). Then on Saturday I'm going shopping with my mom and mama! Then on Sunday we are eating at a Japanese restaurant for my brother's birthday which was this past Friday (he turned 17). Can't believe it!! So we have a busy week, but are very excited to see everyone!! Well, I know this post has gotten long. (I'm trying to make up for the 4 months of blogging that I've missed). I'll be back to share some more of what we've been up to!!
