What I'm Loving Wednesday

Happy Wednesday!! Linking up with Jaime for...

I am loving my new blog design! I was desperate to change the pictures in the header and was really ready for a new design.  Leslie at Sweetie Baby's Custom Blog Design did it again and she did great! She is awesome to work with!!!

I am loving my new Erin Condren Weekly Life Planner. I love that I was able to have it personalized with pictures on the front and back. I also love that it has tabs and pockets. It is seriously the best planner ever and will surely keep me super organized!! =) She has a great website!! There are so many fun things I want to order next!

I am loving that Colton's basketball season has begun.  He has practiced a few times and really likes his teammates and coach. He is playing in the Upward league again because we loved it so much last year. I am looking forward to cheering him on at his first game this Saturday! Should be a great season! Here is a picture of my basketball player last year. He already looks so much older. ;)

I love this sign I found on Pinterest.

Love this man...

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!!

Colton's actual birthday

Here is a little recap of what we did on Colton's actual birthday.
We started with the traditional pancake breakfast.

Making his wish. =)

He opened a few gifts--an Angry bird pillow, a Wii game and some Sonic toys  Then we got ready and went to church. Colton got to pick where we ate lunch afterwards and he chose McDonald's. So we ate there and the boys played for a little while.(No pictures there) Then we came home and let Carter nap. 

The birthday boy got to choose our evening plans. He chose to eat at his other favorite place, Freddy's Frozen Custard and then we went to see The Adventures of Tin Tin. 

His usual--vanilla topped with MnM's.

Ready for the movie to start

It was a really good movie! It was suspenseful, action packed and funny. We all enjoyed it! 

When we got home Colton opened his big gift from us....we got his buck mount done and picked up. He was really excited about it. 

He had chosen to have the skull painted camo. 

Saturday is his party at Laser Legend. He can't wait!

The Wedding

The whole Mueller Family

My four handsome men!!

As you know by now, Cody's sister got married yesterday! It was a perfect day!! The bride was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! Colton and my nephew Graham had the job of  lighting the candles in the church, handing out programs and greeting the guests as they arrived at the church. They did great!  Cooper and Carter ended up helping with the greeting and programs and they all loved the job!!
Here they are looking oh so handsome...

Colton Wyatt--greeter/candle lighter

Cooper Wiley--Ring Bearer

Carter Wesley- ring bearer

My nephew Graham--greeter/candle lighter

The ceremony went so smoothly and was perfect! Cooper was the ring bearer and took his job so seriously. He did great! He walked down the aisle with our new niece Kendall(Jason's daughter). Carter was also a ring bearer with my nephew Grady and a precious little girl Lyla. They walked down the aisle looking adorable but sat with us as soon as they got down the aisle(that was the plan all along). I couldn't get any pictures of the them all walking down from my spot but hope to add some later from the photographer. 

Cooper doing a great job=)

The ring bearer and the Beautiful bride--his Aunt Stacy

Then we headed to the reception! It was at a fun place that was big and rustic but so pretty too. It got a little chilly but everyone had an awesome time!!!

The party can start now

The five of us at the reception

Their first dance as husband and wife---I love this picture!

The day was wonderful and the bride and groom were both glowing with happiness!! It was a day filled with lots of family, friends and lots of LOVE!!! We loved being part of it! So happy for Mr. and Mrs. Mikolajzcyk!!

Happy Birthday Colton!

Today my first baby turns 9!!!! I cannot believe it! I am so thankful for this boy! He makes us so proud each and everyday!

• He is a complete rule follower. 
• His conscience works overtime so he worries a lot but can still be very carefree.
• He is so smart and is doing awesome in third grade--straight A's all year. 
• He is secure enough to do his own thing. If all the other kids are playing a game he doesn't want to play, he will go play by himself. (This will help in the teen years)
• He is really easy going.
• We always talk about being nice to everyone. When he had to use a few words to describe himself, he said nice. =)
• He loves school and is so excited to learn new things. 
• Lately, he starts lots of conversations with a serious tone and a "Mama- can I talk to you about something?" We have some really great and important conversations these days. 
• He is still a picky eater but has recently mastered swallowing a vegetable like a pill. =)
• He gives the greatest hugs and kisses.
• He still thinks out of the box and comes up with some amazing things and ideas. 
• He has a way of making you feel so special and so loved!
• He is a great big brother!!
• He still loves music, dancing to a good beat, drawing, playing Wii, his iTouch, riding his scooter and his Mama! 

I am so lucky to have this boy! He made me a Mama and continues to make me a proud one! I love you to Pluto and back in real life Colton Wyatt! I thank God for you each day!!

Happy Birthday!!!

Since we have all the fun wedding festivities this weekend his big birthday party will be at Laser Legend next Saturday.

Going to the Chapel

Tomorrow is the big wedding of Cody's sister, Stacy and her fiance, Jason. Tonight was the rehearsal and it went well. It was followed by a delicious Italian dinner. I cannot wait for tomorrow! I love weddings!! I love everything about them from the dress, to the music, to the cake, to the dinner and dancing. I am so happy for Stacy and Jason! Stacy is going to be a beautiful bride! They are a great match and it is going to be an amazing day! I cannot wait to see my boys all dressed up in their little vests and ties. I assure you, there will be lots of pictures. =)
Here is a picture of my boys with the bride and groom....

What I'm Loving Wednesday

Happy Wednesday!! I am linking up with Jaime again for...

I am loving that tonight our class, Growing Kids God's Way starts. I love that one of our favorite couples, Clay and Melissa, will be leading it with us this semester!! I love that we are serving in our church and learning so much at the same time!!

I am loving that this weekend Cody's sister will be getting married!! Cooper and Carter are ring bearers, Cody is an usher, I am a reader and Colton will be a candle lighter and passing out programs. It is going to be such a fun, family event!! SO happy for you Stacy and Jason!!! 

Love this one of their engagement pictures!

I am loving how much Carter is talking these days! Everything he says is so cute and he just cracks us up all the time. Two and a half is such a fun age. Lately, if I say "Ouch"  for any reason, he will run to me and say,
"You k Mama?"  Love this boy...

I am loving this sign/saying right now because I pretty much have all of these things...

Wow-- I must be a great mom then!! ;)

What are you loving today? 

Papa on TV

 You know that Nyquil commercial where it is pretty much just a guy snoring and then the advertisement plays? Well today when it came on, right away Carter yelled, "Mama---Papa on TV!"  Nope the snoring guy doesn't really look like my Dad but my Dad sure can snore! =) I thought it was too cute! Carter really loves my dad and I guess he had his Papa on his mind.  =)
