Day 10 - Books

We are grateful to have books. I love to read! I am glad to see that Adysen is taking after me. Lately she has been playing more with her books than any other toys. She will turn the pages and gabber away. It is adorable. She also loves it when we read to her. We are so blessed!

Day 9 - Washer and Dryer

We are so grateful to have a washer and dryer in our apartment. It is nice to be able to work on the laundry during the day without having to go down to the laundry room. Adysen is a great helper. She really like to help me fold the clothes, and push the basket around the room.

Day 6 - Cocoa (Grandma's Dog)

This weekend we drove up to Idaho for Calene's Bridal Shower. We enjoyed spending time with our family. We wish we would have taken more pictures. However, we did get a few of Adysen and Cocoa. Adysen likes to watch him, but she still isn't sure what she thinks if he gets too close.

Day 5 - Leaves and Shoes

Today Adysen is grateful for the leaves. She is becoming quite the explorer. We had to walk out to the car to grab the camera. So, I decided to see if I could get Adysen to walk while holding my hand. She became very distracted by the leaves on the ground. She kept picking them up and then decided she would rather crawl. One of these days she will be able to walk on her own.

Adysen is also grateful for her shoes. She loves them! This morning she handed them to me when she was getting dressed. What a cutie. I also love that we got them for a great deal. We got them at one of my favorite stores, Kid to Kid. They have great prices on gently used clothing, shoes, and toys for kids. Perfect for babies that quickly outgrow everything. Also, I don't have to worry when the clothes get stained.

Day 4 - Our Business


We are very grateful for our family business - WireHomeDecor.com. We feel blessed to be able to make some extra money while Alton is in school. Alton has been so busy with school and work that he hasn't had time to update the website as much as we would like him to. So, I decided (with my limited knowledge of html) that I could do it. The last couple of days I have spent a lot of time editing photos and pages on the website. I am still learning about editing html and Alton has had to help me fix some spacing issues. However, I am very excited for all of the changes I was able to make on the site. We still have some editing to do, but hopefully by the end of next week our website will be completely updated and ready for the Christmas season. You will have to check back in a few days and see if you can spot my changes! Just kidding, you really don't have to...but I think it is going to look awesome when we finish getting our new photos on there.

Here are a couple of pictures we took over the weekend:

Day 2 - Chocolate Cake

I went to the grocery store to see if there were any good after Halloween sales. I found this cake for $2 at Dan's. Alton loves chocolate cake. We are grateful for the yummy cake. Adysen also loved it. This was her first experience with chocolate cake. She ate it right up!

Day 1 - Skype

We are grateful for Skype. We enjoy our weekly phone calls to our families since we do not live close to them. Adysen is grateful that she can see her grandparents and aunts and uncles.
