As much as we look forward to summer, I think most of the people in this house look forward to fall possibly even more. Football, the air is cooler, football, the Balloon Fiesta, football, pumpkin spice lattes, football, and did I forget one? Oh yeah. Football. 😉

I showed Little Miss this picture of her the other day and she immediately lit up and said, “Wuv hair!” I said, “You love her hair?” She said, “Uh-huh!” I said, “Honey, that’s you” and she got so happy and just patted her hair all proudly. Ha! Her hair has been SO curly this summer!

Blueberry Oatmeal FTW.

The Solar Eclipse is something we have been counting down the minutes to for WEEKS and it dawned dark and cloudy. 🙁 We were so sad! We watched the clouds carefully and barely saw the beginning of it before the cloud cover took over again. I brought the kids back inside and Nathan sat down on the couch, closed his eyes and prayed for the clouds to leave. I started going through math with him, looked up and sunny skies were out ten minutes later. 😉 Somehow, we had a patch of cloud-less sky the rest of the eclipse and Nathan just kept yelling, “GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!”, while Parker kept running around shouting, “GOD MADE US! GOD MADE THE SUN!” Ha! Love when God works in ways obvious to my kids!

In total amazement. This was such a fun thing to experience with him!

This one obviously had no idea what was going on, but she knew her brothers kept putting the glasses on and shrieking, so she had to copy them. Such a ham. 😉 She kills me.

What a wonderful day!
