25 Days of Joy - Day 4

My best friend, love of my life, and husband of 5 years....Joe! Gosh I love this man! I always thought it was corny to say "my other half" but seriously he completes me and I could not do it without him by my side! He puts up with my mood swings and still loves me HA HA! He will do sweet little things randomly like dishes and laundry and even stop and get flowers w/out any special occasion. So of course he brings me JOY!

25 Days of Joy - Day 3

Alli Jo, where do I even start. You are such a character! You are at the age where you're learning so many new things. You want to repeat everything ANYONE says, and you try so hard to get it right! Last night sissy was pretending she had a big belly and said, "Look at my big belly!" And you out of nowhere said, "Look how belly my big is!" BAHAHA You crack us up, and seriously have momma laughing so hard that I cry! LOL

You're also the "little mommy" around the house. Even the "little wife" because you tell your daddy what to do HA HA! I love you Alli Jo, you bring tons of Joy to my life!!

Look at how much you grew in just 1 year!

25 Days of Joy - Day 2

Oh Hunter, you bring so much joy and laughter to our family! You have set such a great example for your younger sisters. I could not ask more of you, you do amazing work at school and at home. Although we tend to butt heads a lot, it’s only because we’re so much alike =) You’ll always be my first born , the one that helped me grow up, the one that taught me how to LOVE …love you Boo Boo!

25 Days of Joy - Day 1

I'm so loving all the bloggers posting 25 days of joy! Posting 1 picture a day of things that bring you joy =)

Here is my little Stella Belle. She is one of the sweetest joys of my life! I don't believe there has been a day since she was born that she didn't make me smile. She is going to turn 1 next month and she has such her own personality, it cracks us up. When she doesn't get her way, she will pound her hands on whatever she can find...her highchair, the floor, a wall!! Ha Ha She loves her sisters VERY much, infact MUST be in the same room with at least one of them at all times! She cannot wait until Daddy walks through the door from work, her face just lights up and she starts yelling, "Da Da Da!!" And of course there's no bond like mother and daughter. She loves to snuggle with me and dig her body into mine like she's trying to get back inside LOL She loves to look right up at me, grin with her 6 teefers showing and then give momma an eskimo kiss =)
She's a keeper, that's for sure!

Hunter's first Colts game

Sunday night we headed to Indy for some football! It was my early bday gift from the hubs. We had an extra ticket so took Miss Hunter with us. We hardly get to spend much time with her b/c most of the time we're focussing on the youngest two. So I hope she felt special =) Joe was so excited he bought her a PINK jersey! She loved it! He tried to be a good hubby and bought me one too, but I'm pretty sure it was a kids size b/c I couldn't fit it over my head LOL So thanks hunny for thinking I'm three sizes smaller!
I don't know what it is about Indy but we always get turned around no matter where we're headed! I assured Joe I remembered how to get there a "back way" and we didn't need to program our GPS. HA We took the back way and the ROAD WAS CLOSED! He was NOT happy with me. We got back on the main road and found our way again with my phone GPS....so funny!
It was a Sunday night game, so it didn't start until 8:20pm. I wasn't sure how Hunter would hold up, but she did very well! She was tired before the game started but the Colts fans are not quiet and she got into the game just the same =)


Our seats were pretty good...from the pictures it looks like we're
in the nosebleed section, but we were in section 408...
so definitely not nosebleed LOL
She was so into the game, I loved it! I explained a lot of the rules
of the game to her b/c it gets confusing as why the fans are booing HA HA!
Some weird-o fan guy but I thought it would be
funny to get her picture with him LOL
Always gives me chills to see a flag this big and what it represents
Mr. Manning did NOT have a good game, hense the "ticked off" look
