What we've been up to...

We enjoyed the halloween party at our church last Wednesday night.


On Thursday, Caleb and daddy went on Caleb's field trip to the pumpkin patch.

On Friday night, we went to Jackson's halloween party and hayride.
 
 
We saw Emma there!
 

We enjoyed church on Sunday.  The children's choir sat in the choir loft and sang a song.  We were proud of Callie Grace!

Sunday night, Callie Grace, Caleb and I made pumpkin muffins.  I only took a picture of our finished product.


We had a fun weekend together as a family.  This week, we get my niece for 4 nights.  Callie Grace and Caleb can't wait!

My mama

In many ways, my mama helped make me into who I am today.  I see so much of her in me.  I miss her so badly, especially on days like today.  It is incredibly hard to believe that she has been gone from my life for 15 years today.  I wish she had the opportunity to meet Callie Grace and Caleb and vice versa.  They both know about Grandma Hammerment and talk about her.  I know without a shadow of a doubt that she is loving on my Crosson.

My heart feels sad today.  I want to be able to focus on all that we shared but today I am just plain sad.

Hanging with Hoppy

Caleb tells everyone he meets that he is "in the Froggy Fours now".  So, it was no surprise that he loved introducing Hoppy to each person that we came in contact with this weekend.  Hoppy was one well loved frog this weekend!

We enjoyed lunch at Rushs on Friday. Ms. Cathy, our special friend joined us!


We went to the grocery store on Friday afternoon.  Hoppy loved riding in the grocery cart.


We went to the playground on Saturday.  Hoppy enjoyed going down the slide over and over again!


We went to church on Sunday.  Caleb wanted to get a quick picture with his buddy.


Hoppy got to go in the car wash with us.  Thank goodness our windows were up! :)


We stopped by Little Caesars for one of Caleb's favorite lunches.  Caleb wanted a picture to be taken by Cocky!


Thank you, Hoppy for hanging out with us this weekend.  Come back soon!

Love, the Burgess Family

Halloween at Mama Helen's

We enjoyed celebrating Halloween with Mama Helen last night.  The children had "the best time ever".  There were so many fun things for the children to do.  Mimi made the children's costumes again this year and I think she did a great job.  As Caleb says, "he stole the show last night".  I didn't get one picture of Mama Helen which I am sad about.  We were so busy running after our kids, that I forgot to get one!

Meet Cinderella and her glass slippers.

The Tin Man




                                     They both won a piece of cake from the cake walk!


                            Sweet baby Henry as Mickey Mouse.  We all could just eat him up!

A treat

A sweet lady from work gave me some free frosty coupons for Wendy's the other day.  I took the children by there after church last night.  They loved the special treat!
