Happy Halloween.....

I'm already worn out from Halloween festivities but just one more night......:)

Scentsy Fundraiser time.....

Yep, these 2 cuties are having a Scentsy fundraiser for their Sonshine School again this year. You can order anything from the full online catalog at www.scentsy.com. Any orders placed are free of shipping but the order comes to me & I get it to you. If you'd like to order & have it shipped to you, that is available to do but you'd have to pay shipping then.

Let me know if you would like to place an order!

Here we go again....

For those of you who didn't see it on facebook tonight........we're expecting Baby Byrd #3 in May!

Jaylen is very excited about the baby but is bound & determined for it to be a girl. We aren't finding out what it is so I hope she's not too upset if it's a boy! Rosson has no idea yet but will probably be upset either way....he's a momma's boy for sure!

Just to answer a few questions I've already been asked:

1. We planned this one.

2. This is our last one.

3. We aren't finding out what we are having.

4. I'm due May 21st.

5. I'm 8 weeks today.

6. I'm feeling pretty good just nausea at times.

7. We are all excited!

Catching up....

Wow, it's been a while! I'll just post a bunch of pics to recap our last month or so. We started by going to the Hinton Fair.....as always, we enjoyed the rides & yummy homemade ice cream.

Her favorite this year was the swings....
Oh the prized rainbow pony......we waited for this beauty to come available to ride & judging by her smile, it was worth it!


They both loved the train with it's loud horn....

His first time to ride the cars.....he couldn't decide if he liked them or not!

She's an old pro at the cars....

Ready for church one morning....Rosson looks like such a big boy in this pic!

We went to see Toy Story on Ice at the State Fair.....it did not disappoint!

Then the girls enjoyed the State Fair a bit!

Proud of her ribbon she got! Love her...

Waiting for their turn at karaoke.....

We also took a little trip to Branson for a State Farm meeting. Here are the kids meeting the GoodNeigh Bear for the first time....of course, Rosson is grabbing suckers instead of smiling for the picture......classic.

A little wrestling in the hotel before we hit the pool....

The fountain show at Branson Landing

Rosson obviously loved the fountains!

Waiting for the show to start....

I told her to go stand in front so I could take a pic. She walks up then slowly raises her arms to this position & smiles.....it was so funny!

We stayed at the Encore (twin to the Wynn) & it was amazing! As much as I love my bed at home, I really hated to leave that hotel....

Downtown Vegas at the light show....

Gav & I at our finale night of the convention...heading to the Don Henley concert. We had such a blast in Vegas & I have a couple new friends too! I met several wives of his classmates & really hit if off with a couple of them!

We just got back from Vegas on Wednesday & it really came at a great time. We needed that little escape from normal life. This year has been full of loss (young & old) for our family. Right before we left, we buried Gavan's grandpa, Junior Mullins. He was the 3rd out of our 4 grandparents that we have lost in 2011. He was such a great man who influenced SO many people during his life. He is already greatly missed. Thank goodness he isn't in pain anymore & that we'll get to see him someday again!

Now, we are gearing up for Halloween, Jaylen's birthday, Thanksgiving, Rosson's birthday, Gavan's birthday & then Christmas.....whew! That's what I get for having babies a week before Thanksgiving & a week before Christmas....ha! It's my favorite time of the year so I need to just try to slow down, breathe & actually enjoy it! Here's to the busyness of life never ending! Happy Fall!!!
