OH MY GOODNESS....

Yesterday I entered a contest at KOSY 106.5 of course not imaging that I would even come close to winning!! 6 am I was up as usual to get ready for the day, I was doing my hair and my phone rang, not many people call that early in the morning. I answered the phone:
"Hello" I said.
"Hello is this Melissa Pratt" they asked
"Yes this is Melissa Pratt" was my response..
"Hello Melissa this is Fisher and Peggy from KOSY 106.5, how are you doing?"
"I'm great "
"We are calling to tell you that you are the winner of a trip on us to Lo Jolla San Diego"
"Get out are you serious, I never win anything!"
"Yes you won, who are you going to take with you?"
"My family, my Husband and my two boys!"
"Well congratulations and have a fabulous trip...."
"Thank you so much!"

When I ended the call I couldn't believe it, I was so excited that I jumped up and down, and danced around, I won I won...... I am so EXCITED!!!

Scooter, bikes, and lawn mowing...

Nathaniel is nine and old enough to want to mow the lawn. Tuesday night

he surprised by mowing the lawn, (with dads supervision)

I came home from some meetings, and he was nearly done. Thanks Nathaniel I love you....

Caleb enjoys being outside running, jumping, scootering, or just anything

that doesn't include sitting down.... Ever since he turned one he has loved

to ride the scooter. These photos and video show him riding a beginners scooter, (it has

three wheels instead of two)

but he is usually riding Nathaniel's big scooter everywhere. I hate to say it but he

rides Nathaniel's scooter better than Nathaniel sometimes. My batteries on my

camera stopped working, just as Caleb decided to go to the top of the driveway and yelled "look mom!!" I was too far away to stop him. All I could do was think crap!! Let me explain our driveway is very very steep, and I have seen more than a few small children try

to fly down it on a bike or scooter and not succeed. They end up with a bloody lip or scrapped up hands and knees.

We have tried to explain to Caleb that he shouldn't ride the scooter down the driveway. Tonight he was a sight to see, he proceeded to ride down the driveway screaming "weeeeeeeeee" just as he is about to dart out into the rode, he turns the scooter on to the sidewalk, looks up at me, smiles and says "Again, Again" so proudly!!! My mouth dropped open with relief and amazement!! Two years old and not an ounce of fear!! Oh boy!!

Fall is one of my favorite seasons of the year, I love the colors of the trees, and the crisp cool feel of the air. We were driving through Logan Canyon this past weekend, and the colors of the trees were so vibrant, it was so beautiful!!!! Fall brings one of the funnest holidays, Halloween!! Halloween is just around the corner, we are still trying to decide what to dress up like. My sister posted some cute photos of her kids from past years, so I decided that I would look through my pics and post a few. Isn't it so fun to see how the have grown....
