Today...

...is a very special day. Today is my 9th wedding anniversary! I think I am the luckiest woman in the world. My husband is such an amazing man...and the best part is that he doesn't even know it! He is the man of my dreams and more, and he is the best dad! My life today is everything I have ever wanted and then some, all because of him. He gave me the most beautiful children, and he loves us more than anything in the world, which he shows us every single day. And so today I celebrate the day that he chose me, and I will be forever grateful to have him in my life!!! Love you, baby!

I'm making SOME progress.

I got that "Cute" post to look normal, though I had to use a bulleted list to do it! Still not sure how I'm going to make it work the next time I post photos, but I'll keep trying!! Grrrrrrrrrr.

It did it AGAIN!!!

I had this nicely put-together list...and even when I previewed it, the whole thing looked really nice. But then I publish, and I get 1 big paragraph...1 big run-on sentence. DO YOU KNOW HOW IRRITATING THAT IS?!?!?!?! Does anyone have any suggestions? Am I doing something wrong? Obviously I'm doing SOMETHING wrong, but what? This is (again, obviously) beyond the extent of my computer knowledge. AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Cute...

Saw this on another blog (thank you Aimee Porco!) and couldn't resist. It's not hard and doesn't take long. :)

The kids waited there for about 5 whole minutes for the firetruck to come down the street.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FINALLY!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The end of the evening.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The daddies stayed home to give out the candy.

Our pumpkin this year.

And look at what came out of my garden today! Roses in November...who would have thought?

Lots of pictures!

I'm just going to post a bunch of pics...little to no explanation is necessary for most of them. I think some of them are repeats from the last post, but they're so darn cute, it doesn't hurt to see them again, right?

FH said he was, "smiling like a dog" in this one...not sure what that means!
