I LOST MY FIRST TOOTH





WOW what an exciting night we had last night. Molly's front baby tooth has been getting looser and looser over the last few weeks. Well, thanks to Daddy who hit a bump driving home, Molly's tooth fell out. We were jumping up and down with so much excitement. The tooth fairy came for a visit last night and left a lovely note with $1.00 and her tooth back. I will never forget the excitement she had this morning reading the note from the tooth fairy, it was pure innocence and sweetness. She could not wait until she went to school to tell everyone and get her name on the board of kids who have lost a tooth. It looks like the tooth fairy will be making another visit here very soon because the other bottom tooth is very wobbly.

Pumpkin Patch

Today, we made our annual trip to the Bixby Pumpkin Patch. Every year, we look so forward to this outing. Molly loves to ride the ponies and we love to take lots of pictures with all of the beautiful pumpkins. It was a beautiful October day and we so loved hanging out with Daddy which was a change for us due to all of his studying...






Phoenix, Friends, Pumpkins and our school Carnival










We have been busy lately. A few weeks ago, Molly and I traveled to Phoenix to see our dear friends the Williams. We had a great time and miss them a lot. Thank goodness they are moving to Dallas so they will be closer to us and we hope to see them more in the future. Our sweet little Molly makes friends pretty easily but is also very particular about who she is friends with. She knows who she has a connection with and who she does not. At school, there are two kids that she talks about a lot, Kestle and Derek. Last weekend we went to the Bass Pro Shop where Kestle's daddy is the General Manager. Molly and Kestle played with the pumpkins and had a great time. Daddy carved a beautiful pumpkin and we had lots of fun with our new friends. This past Friday night, we attended the annual Miss Helen's Fall Carnival. We had a blast. Molly played lots of games and we won some silent auction items, etc. We are having so much fun attending all of the school events. It is my favorite time of year and we are living life to the fullest each day while we continue to count down the days until Daddy graduates... Come on 12/17....
