Yes I did it

Ok let the comments begin! I put Juliette in a pageant. Nothing big, as you can see it was at the mall in front of JcPenney. She was not thrilled but she did it! Other then her laying out on the stage she did good, HAHAHAHAHAHA! I think she is the most beautiful little girl in the world! She didn't win and we can say we did it! Angelia won the pageant in the spring so she got to give Juliette her prize. The other girl in the picture is named Taylor, i work with her Grandmother. Taylor is an expert in pageants at the age of 5.

November - A day in the park


As you can read we had a very busy october! So we decide that in November we would take it easy so we started with a trip to the park.

Happy Halloween 2010

Ok by now you are tired of seeing my kids in their costume but they (both costume and kid) cost a good bit of money so every chance we got we wore the costumes HAHAHA. But now for the main event HALLOWEEN!! Jackson was Woody from Toy Story and Juliette was a pink poodle! I would like to start off by saying we got A LOT OF CANDY!!! We enjoyed trick or treating. We started at Monnie and Pappaw's house, then Stonebriar (where we live) and finally Poppa G's neighborhood. One house that we trick or treated was having a party (very loud party) and Jackson said "Mommy let's go to that party!" What can i say the boy loves a good party, I hope that is not a sign of times to come! At the end of the evening (about 8pm) Jackson looked at me and said "I am ready to go eat some candy, let's go home!" So we did! The whole night Juliette screamed "More candy......PLEASE!" I am a bad mother and let them eat candy for supper. Juliette was literally running circles in the house, it was hilarious (for once she was more hyper then Jackson).

Fall Festival and Donuts-n-Doddling

WOW there are a lot of fall festivals. Both Juliette and Jackson had Fall Festivals at their schools. At Jackson's school they gave away toys instead of candy, but it cost. We had to take a baked good for the cake walk, Jackson and I made a pumpkin pound cake for him to take. When he won at the cake walk he choose what we made out of everything (and believe me there was a lot to choose from, because apparently i am the only won who made something, LOL). So that really warmed my heart that he did that. But he won it again and choose cupcakes the next go around. Angelia got to go to both events so we enjoyed her company.


Some of Jackson's loot he won. LOL!!!!!


Donuts and Doodling is at Juliette's school. IT is where they invite family to view the children's art work. I was the only one to be able to go but i still enjoyed it. WOW they really do a lot of art and I loved it all!!! She was very proud of her work and showed it to me by saying "MOMMY LOOK!!!" Then the next day they got to wear there costumes and have a party.



Pumpkin Carving



Since we are "homeless" currently (we have yet to buy a home in Meridian) we got to carve the pumpkin on Nanna and BunkBunk's back porch! Jackson loved bossing Jonathan around telling him how to do it, because he is almost 5 and he knows how to do it better, LOL! Juliette didn't want anything to do with it, that is until we bribed her with candy, LOL! Nanna made them their shirts, aren't they cute?!

BOO at the ZOO 2010





We enjoyed the Boo at the Zoo again this year. We had to go on Saturday this year, which i swore i would never do. But we got there when they opened so it wasn't that bad of a crowd. For some reason Jackson did not want to ride the train. We were exhausted so it was a quick visit.

Pumpkin Patch 2010





We went to visit the pumpkin patch in Birmingham. It was a lot of fun. Both Jackson and Juliette had fun. Next year we are making the rule, "If you can't carry it ain't going home with us!" Poor Jonathan was a pack mule getting all the pumpkins back to the car. We got to enjoy the pumpkin patch, petting farm, cotton jump and the corn maze.
