The smell of Fall is in the Air! :-)

Hey Everyone!  Well the leaves are starting to change, the weather has been absolutely beautiful and the kids have been doing great with their new school schedules!  All in all I would have to say life has been pretty good around here lately!  Jackson has been loving Kindergarten and all the new friends he has made so far this year!  He is such a social kid (hmmmmmm....wonder where he gets that??? :-) His teacher has sent lots of nice notes home with him, saying how good he is in class and what a kind and respectful kid he is!  As a parent, that's all you can really hope for! :-) Just this week it was Grandparents day at School and since Grandma Billie is in MI and Grandma O was out of town, Aunt Jet filled in as Jackson's Grandma for the day!  They got to have a special lunch together and Aunt Jet said she really enjoyed meeting some of Jackson's friends!  Thank you so much for filling in on such a special day at Jack's school Aunt Jet!

Well, Jackson wasn't the only one starting a new school this year!  Max started his class with Mrs. Cole and Mrs. Moon on Tuesday's and Thursday's at St. Andrew!  He is loving it!  Such a proud BIG boy and he's fully potty trained!!! YAY!!!! :-)  He is such a "bright" light and so full of love!  On Tuesday's Daddy is taking him and picking him up for some good one on one time.  Always good for the kids to have both parents involved.  This has also given me a chance to have some great one on one time with Lola!  She is growing up so fast and is just a doll baby!  Her hair is growing, she keeps getting taller and taller and talking more and more!  I can't believe she isn't a "baby" anymore!  :-)

I have also started my Anatomy and Physiology class, and let me tell you it's a tough one!  But to be totally honest, I am really enjoying being back in school and looking to my future!  I really hope to get in to the dental program in 2012!  :-)  I have a few more classes to take between now and then but I think I will be ready! :-)  I am also working really hard at my photography, hoping that will grow more and more now that I have the beautiful and talented Jocelyn Edin working on my new name a logo for the business!  I am really excited about sharing this with all of you in a few weeks, so stay tuned! :-)

In other news I would like to share is I have found a wonderful "church" that I have started attending and really enjoy it!  I say "church" because this is like no other church I have ever attended and for those who know me really well, you know I am not your average church person!  I have always had a "spiritual" side to me but have always questioned allot of religious things!  Well here, it's so different and when I walk in I feel a sense of spirituality!  That's what I have always wanted to feel and never really did until now!  Not to mention, the music is unbelievable and the kids LOVED going to the kids church!  I think it is a good fit for us at this time in our lives!  So I tell you this and ask that you continue to pray for the kids and I as we are still transitioning into our new lives, but know that we are moving forward and loving every minute of it! :-)
