Nothing like making your Kid clean up...

...his own PUKE!
Saturday when I picked up Jack from my Grandma Barb's house she told me he had puked 3 times. She said she wondered if it was just something he ate because he seemed to be fine. Well, he wasn't! "Mom of the Year" here, stopped at Holiday and bought him a Slurpee (at his request) the coke 1 wasn't working so I got cherry! WORST DECISION I've made in...well...a few days!! LOL

I know it looks mean but, I assure you... he begged to use "Aunt Rylee's" Spot Bot. Jack LOVES to cook and clean (he's going to be a GREAT Husband) when he is not busy building things!!

See how happy? I would NEVER make my kid clean up his own puke, that's my job!!

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

I have a confession... I set up my tree BEFORE Thanksgiving!
I did however, wait to decorate it! Here are some pics, ENJOY!

Mr.Enthusiasm feeding ornaments to Ding! Jack looking at every single 1.
All my Boy's following Mom's orders to "KEEP DECORATING"

My LITTLE MOUSE!!

"I've been waiting since last December to decorate for Christmas AGAIN."

Lil Ding Ding... You're BUSTED!!

Helping Hands!

Chillin'

Exhausted lil tree decorators!

Ben's REAL family...

So, I'm pretty sure my boyfriend was a buck in his last life!! His passion for these animals is incredible. On Thanksgiving (after I got home from work) we decided to take a drive and look at Deer! It was just us 2, boy did we enjoy the peace and quiet for a few hours! Whatchoo lookin' at?
"Just turn around Son, it's only the Paparazzi!
HUMONGUS (I think)

I think this is his "brother from another mother."

My camera may be a little blurry (ok a lot) but know this...I'm going to shoot this deer and hang him on my wall next October!!

What a great picture this would have been if the truck wasn't driving off while I was taking it!!!!

Beautiful Boys!

The WHOLE fam damily!

This little DOE was so cute! She was very quiet and showed so much interest in us and the truck!

I hope EVERYONE had a Thanksgiving like we did... Full of laughs, love, famioly, friends and fun! I'll never forget mine!

I'm THANKFUL for...

I am so blessed with my life as it is right this moment... if possible, I'd freeze time! I wanted to share with you a few things I am MOST Thankful for (in no particular order):

My Soulmate, Ben
My Babies, Jaden, Jack & Jensen
An AMAZING & healthy family
Great friends
A Good Job
Clothes on my back
Shelter over my head
The simple things: smiles, hugs & kisses, giggles, wordless stares, sunshine, rain, and so much more.
I want to give thanks for the unknown blessings already on their way.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Playing with pictures!!

The other day I was playing with my camera that I have had forever... I found some new settings and decided to try them out. Jensen Dean aka: Jensen Ding (from the mouth of Jack) was my lucky subject! "Pictures again?"

"Daddy is a good sport but I say talk to the hand"

"Why do they always grab my cheeks?"

"Okay... take another"

"I love life"

"I'm soooo BIG"

"Daddy wanted kisses but, I tricked him by giving him my treat instead"

"Kiss Kiss"

"My feet are going to grow fast, love em while you can!"

"My Dad is my best friend!!"

"You want pictures?

I'm going to pull faces for ya!"

"Get a new subject. I'm sick of this!"

"All I wanted was some milk!"

39 Days to go...

Last weekend Bree and I decided to be CRAFTY, definitely not a good idea! We decided to make those Christmas countdown chains, you know...the 1's we did in school!

So, the day we did it...there were 39 days left til Christmas

WAY TOO MANY days of stupid paper circles! Bree

Jack
Looks like carrots in the background BUT it's just TONZ of cut up paper!

Reagan (Rylee's baby) came for the fun (if that's what we are calling)

Jack...LOVING life!

P.S. I was SOOOOOO done, when we finished I didn't want to take a picture of the final product! Remind me next year to make these the week before, you know... when there are only a few days til Christmas!

P.S.S. Jaden is missing because he is "too cool" for this stuff!

Breakfast in BED?

Last Saturday Ben & I were woke up about 6:00 am by Jaden and Jack. They walked in and said "Good morning, it's breakfast in bed."My thoughtful babies!

Our breakfast... PB&J
