Gingerbread House

Today we decided that we would make a ginderbread house.

Corey doing his part... the icing.
The kids had so much fun decorating with all the candy.

There is nothing better than a childs laughter. They were so proud of their house that they helped make.

The finished product.... as you can see in the pic, there was a crack in the wall, but we made the best of it. Now, the kids are ready to eat all the candy.

A day on the Ferry...

The ferry that we have here is so much fun! We are used to the 5-10 minute ride on the ferry in New Orleans. This one is a good 25-30 minutes. The kids LOVED it! And the best part... It is FrEe! So, last weekend, we got out took a ride over to Minesott Beach and then came back home. It was a GrEaT time! Here is a pic of the kids. Kain was pretending he was the captain.
Kids and their imagination.... gotta love it!

Young Love... haha!

I had to share a pic of Kain and his "girlfriend" Emerson. They are just adorable. He came home one day and this was the conversation.... "Mom, my friend Jaylin told me that I have to ask you before I can marry Emerson, soooo Can I marry her, PLLLEEEAAASSSEEE!!!"

I was shocked. I guess that he has his first case of "puppy love"

This is his fav pic of them!

War Eagle...

Okay, So I know that this isnt the best year to be an Auburn fan... We are not doing so well in the "winning" department, but I wanted to share some pics with yall of the kiddos in their Auburn gear....

Barack Obama

This is our new president. I must say that I am a little shocked. There are some that say they are scared. Well, I am not scared because I know that God is in control. My God is bigger than any president. No matter who is in the White House, God is still my God. He protects me and my family.

I pray that God will be with Obama during his term. And I also pray that God will soften my heart towards him so that maybe I can understand his ways more that I do right now.

I have faith and I am leaning on that. All that I can do now is pray and the power of prayer is amazing.

Election Day!!

I hope that you all got out there and voted, wether you were an early voter or voted today... I hope that you prayed about who you were voting for. As for us... We voted pro God, pro life, pro america! McCain/Palin!!! I am at peace with my choice because I have spent a lot of time praying about it. :)

We are spending this rainy day indoors... Kain and Kailyn are both sick. (fever, strep throat, vomiting, and rash from head to toe... want to come help me. haha!)

Hope that you all got out there and VOTED!!! It is your duty!

It's November!

Wow! The month of October flew by!! We had a busy month. Welcoming Corey back home from California, Kain's birthday, my birthday.... Fall parties at school and Hallelujah Night at church.

Hallelujah Night was SO much fun!! Kailyn won a YuMmY cake at the cake walk. The kids got lots of candy! And they loved the face painting (Kailyn got a butterfly and Kain got a pumpkin)

We are looking forward to an eventful November as well!! Family will be coming to visit us for Thanksgiving and we are looking forward to it. Last time everyone was here, we had just moved into the house, so everything wasnt put together yet.... I look forward to them being able to see at least some pics on the walls and curtains hanging. ha!

Still dont have the photo program on here yet, maybe I will be feeling better tomorrow and will work on that (I am coughing and Kailyn has a fever, so I am not sure what we have, but we are praying that it will go as fast as it came!)

I hope that you are all doing well! We love you all!!!
