Tinkerbells

Yes, that's two Tinkerbells :) My nieces, Kiersi and Kayden were both Tinkerbell for Halloween. I was sad that I didn't get to see them in person b/c I was on my way home from Oklahoma City but Mom sent me some pictures so I could see them. They are the cutest Tinkerbells ever!

OKC Road Trip

Well it was a road trip for work but it beat having to go to an airport for one weekend. Our event at Oklahoma City this past weekend went pretty well. There isn't too much to say about OKC b/c I didn't do much except sleep and work. We left to drive back home late afternoon on Saturday and it was a fun time. I do have a good time with my WoF co-workers and below are reasons why.

We put on the music on the way home and sang our little heart outs. We went from Beyonce to Britney to NSYNC to BoyzIIMen to Garth to Bryan Adams to Michael Jackson. Yes, lots of music and lots of fun. Below are two videos taken of my friends singing along. Yes, we did make it home safely :)

Gotta sing some Britney (yes, that is a tampon as a microphone)

That's my co-worker Breanna driving and singing loud and proud :)

Trunk or Treat

Last night was the Fall Carnival at our church - FBC Rockwall. When I showed up to work my shift, I could not believe how many children were there - it was packed! It was so fun to see all of the kids in their costumes (and some grown-ups too).

At our station, your goal was to make the bean bags into the basketball goal. Our area was decorated so well. Many people in our Sunday School class did a great job at putting it all together. You all did a great job! Working with our Sunday School friends last night just made me appreciate our class even more!

It was a great event! Brian couldn't come b/c he had a sinus infection but we are definitley signed up to help next year! Happy Fall Yall!

Our Station all decorated

Cade helped us out too!

This girl, I didn't catch her name so we will call her Dorothy, had just donated her hair to locks of love and had to go get a wig so she could complete the Dorothy outfit :)

And So It Begins Again...

October 31, 2009 - The First Day of Duck Hunting Season! Get excited! As I mentioned earlier this year - I envision ducks flying free and happily in the air while my husband likes to shoot them. Big Difference but opposites attract they say!

Starting Saturday, and for the next Saturdays to come, I will be alone under my warm covers as Brian puts on his camo and heads out.

I will miss him on those mornings but I know he is doing something he really enjoys! So while he is killing animals as his hobby, I will be sleeping in (when I'm not out of town for work) and shopping. Christmas is only less than 2 months away :)

At least he gets to see pretty sunrises.


And they wait for the ducks to come

HAPPY DUCK HUNTING SEASON!

Sweet in St Paul

I was looking forward to coming back to St Paul b/c I loved the color of the trees. The picture below is like deja vu b/c it's just like the one I took last year. It is such a beautiful autumn up here even though it was sleeting earlier in the day. Our flight was delayed but we made it. Should be a cold but great weekend!

When I got to the hotel, I found this sweet card in my suitcase. I love it when my husband surprises me - even little thoughts like this. I'm so thankful to have him and even though we are apart many weekends this fall, he knows my heart is always with him.

Birthday Boys

Saturday we went over to my parent's house to celebrate Greg & Ryan's birthdays! Dad grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and Mom made my favorite - Corn Casserole! It was so wonderful and I've had it for lunch both days this week. We ate good food and sang Happy Birthday to the boys. They both got good presents and we really had a good time just being with family. We did, of course, play a card game of Russian Rummy and Ryan won on his birthday. What is a Bradley family get together without games?

Everytime we are with our families, I just appreciate them all so much more! Happy Birthday Greg & Ryan - we hope you had fabulous birthdays!
