Blessings

I have been thinking a lot lately about all the blessing that our family has received in the last year. It was one year ago yesterday that Taylor and Sydney were in a car accident, and Taylor was critically injured. Looking back at the pictures of Taylor when she first entered the NICU to now made me realized how blessed our family has been. I am so thankful that she was able to make a full recovery, and for the time that her and my mom where able to live with us while she was in outpatient rehab. Taylor is so much fun to have around and I just can't imagine what our life would be like without her in it.
The above picture is a typical picture of Taylor being Taylor!!
This is Taylor in rehab not to long after she woke up from her 1 1/2 week coma. She loved when Brynli would come to visit her.

This is Taylor with Emery, Carli, and Saydie.
We love you Taylor and are so blessed to have you in our lives!!!

Carving the pumpkins

This last week was so busy that we didn't get our pumpkins carved in time for Halloween, but the kids insisted on still carving them. The kids had a blast even though it was the day after Halloween.
Brynli missed her nap and was extremely grouchy so this is the only picture we got of her carving her pumpkin.

Carli's pumpkin is a haunted house and Cole's is a mummy! I thought they turned out pretty good.


Happy Halloween!!

Yes I know it has been for ever since I posted last, so this is to everyone who has waited at least 6 months for me to update my blog! This is of Carli and her best friend Lola, they are pretty much inseparable. Got to love Carli's big cheesy grin!!
The kids were so excited that Qwincy got to come spend Halloween with us this year!
Carli was such a cute little fairy!!

I kind of talked Cole into being a football player, because we already had all the stuff. When it got closer to Halloween I started feeling a little guilty about not letting him choose, so I told him he could choose something else if he wanted to. Cole turns to me and says can I be a dead football player with blood on my face. I just had to laugh cause that is so Cole. I think his costume turned out pretty cool thanks to Chad!!




Here is our super cute ladybug! She made sure that we didn't miss one house. When it comes to candy she doesn't mess around.
