Halloween 2010 Recap

Halloween 2010 Recap

Mac decided last minute to go trick or treating this year. Last minute meaning an hour before trick or treating departure time. He reused an old costume from a couple years back.

























Have you seen the new Scooby Doo movie on Cartoon Network?  If so, you will recognize Charlie's character.   If you are like me and you have seen it, you still may not be able to guess, so for clarity's sake, Charlie is dressed as the swamp monster.
























He was a little resistant of wearing the entire costume thus the 2 pics.

My niece and nephew joined us for trick or treating.

























Neewollah snapshots...I was going to share pictures taken this year, but just go back to last years post.  The Neewollah parade is pretty consistent year to year.  Same scools, similar floats just differnt people. 

Some Halloween decorations around the house. 

























See my ghost?  I made that!!  I love that.  I got the idea from here.

11 years ago today
     I was miserable
     2 weeks over due
     As big as a whale
     Anxious, nervous, excited
























11 years ago today
     My dr advised me to check into the hospital that night so they could induce me
     I couldn’t get to the hospital fast enough

11 years ago tonight
     I was scared
     Praying that everything would be ok




11 years ago
     I was in complete awe…you were the most handsome baby I’ve ever seen
     Ecstatic that I was finally holding you
     In amazement that I had a 9 lb 15 oz baby


I say it all the time and I will continue to say it, but I can’t believe another year has gone by. I have to be the luckiest person alive, that God allowed me to be your Mom.

Happy Birthday Mac

Love

Mom

me

i'm a perfectionist to the point it's a fault.  if i can't do it perfectly, i don't want to do it at all

this verse hit my heart. 
     Isaiah 41:13 For I am the Lord, your God, who takeshold of your right hand and says to you. Do not     fear; I will help you.

i love music.  one of my favorites right now is sara bareilles.

loved father's homily today.  in gist, he said look at your life and see if your actions are what you want to be teaching.  funny i was almost crying about this on my way to church. 

i think i'm done writing about ku football although probably not.  this is going to be a rough season.

loving the weekend, sad that it will be drawing to a close soon.

i ran today

i ran today....and it actually felt good. since my last 1/2 marathon, running has felt different, forced, uncomfortable.  if you know me in real life and someone i talk to about running, you would know that running as been difficult.  today, it felt good, challenging but good. 

Ahhh....i ran today.
