Amazing Fall Weather

The weather finally broke on Wednesday and it was an Amazing 70 degrees. After all the rain and cold weather that threw us from the summer into winter like weather, Wednesday was a much needed break. The kids and I decided to spend a few of the afternoon hours at the Nature Center. Below are a few of the pictures from our great adventure outdoors!

Such a Sweet Little Baby

So I got my old computer to finally start working and I found all my pictures of Tyler when he was a baby. I made a calendar for our families for Christmas of 2006. This picture was for the month of January. Tyler was always smiling with his mouth wide open!

Collect All Your Box Tops

Tyler's school is starting a contest between the classes to collect as many Box Tops for Education as possible. The winning class will receive a party. So, I'm asking everyone I know to collect Box Tops between now and March so I can turn them in for him so his class will win a party. If you can help out, please let me know.

Use the link below to find a complete list of all the products that have Box Tops labels. You will definately be surprised how many items are listed.

Thanks!
