TOOOOOOO SWEEEEET!!!!!!


I was sitting at the computer doing some work this morning and Hope was reading one of her Beauty and the Beast books. Then I heard the sweetest thing:

Yes, Jesus loves Belle, yes, Jesus loves Belle! Yes Jesus Loves Pocahontas, Yes Jesus loves Cinderella, yes Jesus loves Mulan, Yes Jesus loves Gaston....She went through the entire princess line stating that Jesus loves them!!
I know that she loves to sing at church because we sing all of the time at home! But it was very touching to hear her sing that this morning.

Last night we were watching a dvd of Phillip's marching band playing and when they started to do the National Anthem...she can hum the ENTIRE national anthem!!! It was awesome! When she realized that we were all watching her instead of the DVD...she stopped...then went back to humming!!!!

It was awesome!!!!
We just love this girl!!!!! :o)
We are truly blessed to have her and our precious sons in our lives! We feel blessed that God has placed them into our lives!!!!

Hair Cuts and Football Season....

Hair getting long at Christmas! Of course the chin all the way up didn't help!!!!
Her new big girl cut!
It is now all the same length!
With Phillip at Friday's Football game!

Well just a couple of weeks ago, I took Hope for a haircut! She had all of these layers in her hair and it looked thin. So we had a friend cut off all 4 of her layers to the shortest one! It made her look sooooooo much older!!! I wasn't sure how to handle that! But she looks adorable (as always :o) .....ok I'm a little partial!)

Fall weather is on its way and it was awesome this past Friday night to go to the football game! You could wear the sweatshirts and drink hot cocoa and watch high school football! I love to watch high school football! They play because they want to, not because they are making millions to do so. But we have learned that at Phillip's school, you don't go to watch the team win...you go to hear the band play!!! Which was my plan all along because in marching band families, we all know that half time is game time!!!! The band goes and takes over the field at every game and does an awesome job of it!!!

Hope enjoys cheering for Phillip's band! She now has her "football clothes" as she calls them to wear to the games! Since they don't sell highschool clothes to fit toddlers...we made her an outfit! She of course has several different hairbows (don't want the outfit to get boring!! :o) ) She has also learned that football field popcorn has a lot of salt on it!!!! This past game I think she either had a little lip chapping going on or she had a little boo boo owie on her lip so she would be eating along and then look at me and point to her lip and tell me OUCH!!!! But she still mananged to polish off most of her popcorn!!!

I do believe that she is planning to be a drum major when she gets to high school!!! She loves to watch the drum majors on the field and she will move her hands and as she says..."deduct" the band!!! So we let her "deduct" all she wants! It is fun to watch!!!
