Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday!!

Today Ashley came to help me babysit the kiddos. It was nice having an extra set of hands and an adult to talk to. I am watching 2 of Casey's kiddos while she is @ a wedding plus Phenix. We have survived day 1 and I am happy to say everyone is happy and behaved really well. We had a couple of moments with fussy babies but I guess that is what happens when you have 3 little ones who are all teething at the same time. I got some great pictures today too of the kids so that is a plus. I miss taking pictures of my boys all the time. With them gone at school all day, when they get home they play until supper, then homework, baths, and finally bed I just don't have enough time in the day to capture them. They are growing up too fast and I cherish every moment with them even though sometimes they drive me crazy. I thank god every day for my boys and Justin. They are my world and what keeps me going. I hope that everyone has a wonderful week!

More of Aunt Amber & Uncle Landon

So on Saturday we spent part of the day at the Metro Park. We played frisbee golf and let Audo run around and play frisbee for a bit as well. It was a lot of fun and was some good exercise. Unfortunately Aunt Amber went home with a heck of a bruise. We were standing off to the side while Ashton threw his frisbee and much to her dismay it was not out of the way enough. His wicked side arm took that frisbee right into the back of her leg and she now has a horrible bruise with a knot in it. She had to call and give Ashy a hard time. Ashton also got his frisbee stuck in a tree. Daddy & Uncle landon had to hoist him up to reach it. They did end up getting it down. We were so glad that they decided to come see us. It was a lot of fun and wish they could have stayed longer but we will see them again soon. Then we played corn hole with the Wedekings, Liz, & Get until it started to rain. It was a great time. We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! Hope every else did as well

Aunt Amber & Uncle Landon Visit

So before we head out to the Metro Park for a hike I thought I would stop by and post some pictures from last night! Owen talked Aunt Amber & I into playing UNO. It was the longest game ever but we had a blast. The Men folk watched some tv and played the PS3. We are enjoying our visit with Aunt Amber & Uncle Landon. Stay tuned for more!

Lazy Saturday

So today has been a lazy day for me. Although my day started out @ 7am (which I still I am not very pleased with my dogs) I did quite a bit accomplished. I cleaned the house some more especially the boys bathroom & bedrooms. It is amazing how dirty little boys are. I just cleaned those rooms a few days ago and it looks like I have not even touched them. Then I have almost got all of our scrapbooks caught up. I have a few more pages to do and I will be finished. For the time being that is. Justin slept in this morning since he had to work last night so now he is out tinkering in the garage with his handy helper Ashton. Owen & I just got done playing basektball. He is a riot that kid. Now we are just waiting on the boys suprise to get here (Aunt Amber & Uncle Landon are coming) Have a great weekend!

Busy Busy Friday

Ashtons big toe after the draw fell on it

Today is picture day at school! So be on the look out for the boys new school picture. They only do fall pictures at this school or so I am told. They looked very handsome this morning. I can't wait to see how the pictures turned out!
I'm exhausted... I worked really hard today! Since I didn't have the baby today I deep cleaned my house again. I vacuumed, swept & mopped the basement as well as cleaned the carpet. Did some laundry, grocery shopped (yuck does anyone else hate this task?), cleaned the pool & patio. I just worked worked worked all day. Then that evening the Wedekings came for chicken quesadilla and after homework we watched UP! It was a cute movie but really sad in some parts. I could have cried! Both of the boys still have a cough and cold. They count down the days until the weekend so I am sure they are glad that today is friday. Ashton pulled a draw out of the hutch and dropped it right on his toe! Bless his heart I know it had to hurt. He is was a trooper. Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday weekend!

Happy Anniversary to us!! Justin and I celebrated our 8th anniversary yesterday. But 11 years total together. It has been a great 11 years and I looking forward to having many many many more together. We have 2 wonderful boys and a wonderfully happy life together. We are very blessed!!
Back to the swing of things... The boys first week of school went on without a hitch. They both have done really well. No tears from anymore and they both love riding the bus. It is so hard to believe that they are in school already. Owen is 7 and Ashton will be 6 in September. My how the time does fly!! They keep us busy and we are back to our old schedule. There seems to never be enough time together though since the boys come home have a snack, play outside until 6:30, then bath time, dinner, then about 1 1/2 of homework per child then bedtime. It makes me miss summer vacation :( Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Sunday

So something is wrong with my computer and is not letting me post so I am going to try from Justin's computer and get you guys caught up on whats been going on here. Hello Fall weather!! Fall is such a great time of the year with the cooler temperatures and the leaves changing. I am ready to have some more family pictures taken as well! This is my favorite time of year for pictures too. Sunday was a great day. I was so excited that the weather has finally cooled off a bit that I decided I would start putting away our pool stuff and get out my fall decorations. As soon as I get my computer fixed I will add the pictures I took of the front. Other than putting up the decorations it was pretty much a lazy day.
