Breast Cancer Month

Since October is Breast cancer month, I wanted to do something to honor Mom but wasn't sure how until I thought about it. My Mom was a teacher & an advocate & I think that this is what she would want.  For all the women out there, when you get a mammogram, please get an MRI too. Demand it. Mammograms no longer pick up cancer by itself. Sometimes breasts are dense or the tumors are in spots a mammogram can't find so please get an MRI as well. Do this & pass it on, it is so important.

Halloween cookies!

Today we had Bradley over for a lunch of baked potato soup & mummy dogs & to make & decorate Halloween cookies & crafts!

Spenser's first haircut!

Yes he's 3 & yes he is just now having his hair cut!  He was not a fan but was somewhat ok after it got started.

Thank God for Genetics!

When my Mom concentrated on things, her tongue would always stick out & I've noticed in the past few months how Spenser's does too when he is concentrating! It makes me smile thinking of my Mom & thankful for genetic material that gets passed along so we always have something of our loved ones & never forget!

Learning about 911

Today at his preschool the Fire Dept came to talk about 911 & they brought the truck for the kids to explore & goodies for the kids.  Spenser tells what he learned:

Busy weekend

Today we had Bradley's 3rd bithday party & then Aunt Leigh & the boys came over for dinner & to watch the Auburn game.  Sunday after church, Spenser & I met up with my Dad & Uncle Jordy & went to the NC State fair. Then after Jon came home from work, we went to our dear neighbors Frank & Janice's for dinner. A really nice weekend!
