Crazy Hair Day!

This week is Red Ribbon week at school. And today was Crazy Hair day. Here are my 2 CrAzY haired kids!

Pumpkin Dinner

We have made it a tradition to make dinner in a pumpkin once a year for Halloween. This year the boys helped me! Heston wasn't to fond of sticking his hand down inside the pumpkin, so he became the photographer! It is always fun to do something different for a meal! It soooo simple too. I just got a Bear Creek soup mix added cooked ground beef and rice and put it the oven for about an hour. Here are some pictures of our dinner last night!

Poor Little Griff Jane

My sweet baby girl is always going none stop. She has to try to keep up with all these crazy kids and she succeeds pretty dang well. So, she has been crawling for a while now and has figured out how to crawl up the stairs. This morning while Rob was ironing...he left Griffyn downstairs with Heston. Nobody really saw what happened to her, but this is what we came up with. She must have crawled up the stairs and instead of making it up and staying...she "did front flips down"...that was the eye wittiness account of what Heston saw. When Rob found her Heston had picked her up. I was not present at the time of the catastrophe, but when I got home Rob was trying to get her calmed down. She wasn't screaming or acting like she was in a lot of pain and we didn't know what we should do. She was not herself for sure! She wouldn't crawl and would not let me put her down. We tried moving her legs and decided that something just wasn't right. So, 2 hours later I took her to the ER. YEP...a fractured femur (Parent of the year right here):( and the Dr. says to me, "Are you sure that is ALL that happened?" As if I didn't already feel like kicking my own butt, now he wanted to! So, we are supposed to go to Primary Children's this week and have her checked out better. What I really can't believe is that she is the first kiddo to break something. I have 2 OUT OF CONTROL boys that are still in one piece and and sweet little baby girl with the great big owie!

Wedding

Rob's youngest sister got married last Friday! She is the youngest so...no more weddings for a long time. It was a great day and it is always fun to see two people so excited to start their lives together. Here are just a few pictures from the day! Congrats Steve and Kami!

Preschool

Fisher is officially a school goer! He is so funny...he acts so big and has no problem with being just like the older kids. His only complaint is that he doesn't go to school more. He is only going one day a week and he hates that! Every morning when he wakes up he asks if it is a school day. I love that he loves it! He comes home so excited to sing me songs and show me his projects! Certainly a big step for both of us:)

Great Value

I find this extremely funny. Those of you who shop at Wal*Mart will know what I am talking about. I am all about saving a buck so YES I buy generic! Most of it tastes just the same as the name brand and I am not TOO proud:)...anyway...Great Value has decided to change the look of their packaging. All of it is white and looks very generic now. I didn't mind the change, BUT my dear husband has had a bit of a struggle. It drives him absolutely crazy that everything looks the same.

Example: There about 10 boxes of stuff lined up in our pantry; fruit snacks, pop tarts, granola bars, etc. ( You know the real healthy stuff) When they are lined up and you are looking at them from the side, you can't really tell what is there. He was like, "We have granola bars? How am I suppose to know that, when all of this damn stuff looks the same?" I love it (a little) that it is torturing him...I kind of think it looks organized!

8 YeArS!

"Don't marry that person you can live with. Marry that person you can't live without!"

8 Years ago today, Rob and I got married! It's weird to think that it has been 8...wow! I can't believe how much has happened and how fast the time has gone. I said to Rob today, "Does it feel like 8 years?" and he said, "It feels like 16!"...but it really has been almost 16 years since we decided we liked each other. That's an even bigger...WOW!! And to think we still like each other:) Happy Anniversary to us! I sure do LOVE you!!!
