October....so much

Life is an interesting thing!  It is totally full of ups and down, crooks and turns. I often don't understand it at all but I'm trusting God has it all under control. Byron, Carlee and Willim moved away from Houston today. I hope I totally absorbed every minute of the time that we all lived so close these last five years. I knew I was tremendously blessed to have that as so many families are spread apart. I lived much of my life with my parents so far away and knew the hurt of that. My head knows we will see them often still as they are not that far away but my heart knows all the things I will miss out on in William's life. But like I said.....I'm trusting.

Pics since I last blogged:

Oh how I love to watch these three together.  It is a big treat to them

to know they will get to see each other that day!  They are a 

JOY

Melissa has mothered William from the start.

This was a good birthday year for Michelle.....

she is expecting Madelyn. How blessed

to be together!

Colby was so excited to get a new bike and learn how

to ride one without training wheels!! Uncle Jeromy and

Aunt Tristan  have taken him to the park several days a

week when Uncle Jeromy is in town and blessed him. Yea!

Wonderful times spent in Nanny's backyard!  So enjoyed

Byron and Carlee there!

Michelle was given a baby shower. Sweet Melissa had a great

time being a big girl at it.

We bought the Willliam and Melissa jeeps this month

and had the fun of watching them enjoy them.

I was surprised how much Melissa LOVES hers!

...not to say the boys didn't totally enjoy it too!!

With our weather currently being so awesome we are back at the park.

Love the smiles!

I love the bond these two have with each other.

Dad would not be surprised ... but so happy!!

The Pumpkin Patch was next. The grandkids loved the pumpkins...

Melissa was quite upset she could not buy all of them!

They were in action!
