Grammy and Poppy's visit and Halloween

I am trying catch everyone up on everything that has been going on! We've had a busy couple of months and Hudson is keeping us constantly on the GO! By that I mean, we are chasing him all over the house! He is into everything and Jeff and I have decided that he doesn't need any toys, he needs a couple of cords and a cardboard box to keep him happy! Here's the BUSY little guy enjoying his trip to the park!
Grammy and Poppy came for a visit in October and we had a great time! We really enjoyed their visit and got to do some much needed visiting and catching up! Hudson is so blessed to have such great grandparents that love him so much! We are also blessed to have them as parents as well! We love you Grammy and Poppy!!

Of course, we didn't get any with Poppy! We are going to their house for Thanksgiving, so we will have to get some then!!


Well this was Hudson's first Halloween! Jeff and I were definitely more excited than Hudson was! We decided about 2 months before Halloween that he was going to be a Monkey, and I have to say that he was probably the cutest monkey I've ever seen! We went to my friend Tracy's house to trick-or-treat. Tracy has 2 boys, Lucas and Hudson that is 1 month older than our Hudson. Tracy and I went to high school together and have reconnected and try to get together as often as our schedules will allow! We had a really good time and thoroughly enjoyed Hudson's first Halloween! Enjoy the pictures!

Didn't so much love the hat!!

He was thinking "Let me out before they put that thing on my head again!"

Well that was part of our October! Hopefully now that I'm somewhat caught up, I can stay on track and do better blogging! Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!!

Our trip to Florida!!

Things have been quite crazy lately! Hudson had his first trip to Florida at the end of September! We went with some of our great friends(Landon, Kelley, Cam, Jessica, Paul, Amy and all the kids)!! Needless to say the adults were out numbered!! We had such a great time and made many great memories! We left for Florida on the 27th of septmember and drove halfway and stayed with Landon and Cam's precious grandmother in Alabama . She was so kind and opened her home to us! We left Monday morning for Florida!


We are in the car on our way to Florida and Hudson is EXCITED!



After getting to Florida, we pretty much either stayed on the beach or at the pool. Below are some pictures from our trip! Hudson absolutely loved the water! He just splashed and had a BIG time!

First day at the pool!

Well those are some of the pictures from our trip! We had such a fun time and it was a joy to see how much fun Hudson had on his first trip to Florida! We are planning on going back in April with Mom and Roger, hopefully if our schedules will allow!!


Since returning from Florida, Jeff and I made huge decisions about jobs. We decided after months of praying and discussing that it would be best for our family if I started part-time(3 days/week). Jeff also took a new job with a better schedule doing something that he really wants to do. We both feel totally at peace with our decisions and are so blessed to be able to do it! I am absolutely loving being home more with Hudson, I definitely feel that I am becoming a better mother and wife for it!


Well I have more posts to add that I will get up hopefully this week!
