Happy Halloween!

Paisley celebrated her first Halloween today! We didn't actually go anywhere, but I had her in her costume long enough to snap a few shots! Stan and I just stayed in and scarfed down some cookies. Halloween is one holiday that I don't get real excited for. I love the dressing up part, and seeing all the cute trick or treaters, but I really don't care for all the scary stuff! I got an email the other day entitled, "so, funny". Here I was watching a girl ride around on her bike waiting for her to run into a pole or something when out of nowhere this awful, screaming horror face pops up. I just about died! "NO THANK YOU!!! I was almost in tears, it scared me so bad. So, no scary movies or haunted houses for us...I can't even handle the dumb previews they put out for the scary movies these days. Thank goodness Stan doesn't like them either :) Have a Happy non-scary Halloween!

OH SWEET 'P'

Below was Stan's first attempt to start a blog for us...it was a nice try, but we both failed to make any further attempts! Now, almost 9 months later we've decided to give this blog thing another shot. So, here we go...
MEET PAISLEY ELLE!!! 2 months ago at 4:22 a.m. Paisley decided the wait was over. She came racing into our lives full speed ahead and turned our crazy world upside down! I had many warnings and wonders of the adventure headed my way...the late nights the sounds of a baby's cry, being in constant demand. What I didn't know was the complete, and utter feeling of peace that would and has come over me. To sit in silence and look down into the eyes of such a beautiful little thing that we were entrusted with, is an experience that has left me with an overwhelming feeling of perfect contentment. "How could we be so lucky!!??" I never imagined such a wonderful blessing and rewarding experience. We love our baby girl!
