2011

What a year it has been:) An amazing year at that. It has flown by like most things do these days. I wish I could stop time sometimes but then again I wouldn't do anything over. I am so, so blessed and under deserving of all that I have. (Especially thinking that about my new Mac right now:)) . God has given me so much and continues everyday. I have no New Year's resolution, just strive to be a better Christian, mother, wife and person. May you all have a wonderful New Year!!!! Here's to 2012!!!!!!!

I, Robot

Instead of making an apology for not blogging in so long I will say one word: SICK! ALL of us!!!! It has been awful!!!! But I think we are on the mend now, hopefully, and I will have time and feel better to do some more posts:)
I will end my blogging hiatus by blogging about my nephew Owen's 1st birthday! I can't believe he is already 1!
This is his first little pic. He is such a cute little boy and I love him to death!! The theme was ROBOTS!!! (If you didn't get the hint in the blog title:)) My SIL, Kyla did a great job! It was so much fun and such a cute party. These were the party favors, little can robots. The nuts and bolts were glued on to magnets so the kids could move them around. Kind of like a Mr. Potatoe Head.

The snack table. There was Computer Chips-Chips, Computer Wires-licorice, Nuts and Bolts-chex mix, Memory Cells-popcorn.

Little Juice Bots, too cute!

The cake table. She MADE the cake!!!!

Grady and his juice box. Are you sure that's just apple juice? Ha!!!

The cake. Blurry pic, but it was AWESOME!!!!!

Birthday boy eating his cake. Man, I know how too take some funky eyed pics! Gees!!!

Sweet little boy smashing his cake.

We had a great time celebrating Owen's first birthday! We love you big guy!!!










Here are some randome pics of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Briggs' Thanksgiving feast at school, and our family pics.

Fall Festivities

The leaves are falling now and I think it is beautiful this time of year. We have had some gorgeous days and are still able to play outside a little. Briggs had his Fall Party at school and parents could attend so the younger 2 and I along with Bum got to party ourselves.

The teachers included Grady in on everything and he got to do everything Briggs did. He had so much fun:) They started off decorating cookies.

LOTS of sprinkles.

Hand painting.

Necklace Making

Praying before snack. PRECIOUS!!

My boys are boys. Very loud, busy, wild and crazy. But only at home. In public places (most public places) they are quiet and reserved little beings. I am so proud to be these guys momma. I love them so much that my heart could explode:) I am so proud of the boys that my babies are turning into. I can only hope they will turn out to be great guys, young men, and fathers.

Back From the Living Dead

To say that we have been sick around here is an understatement! We have had the stomach bug, croup, and any other viral illness you can think of! I haven't even had time to think about blogging much less do it. But here I am illness free (I hope anyways). This post is a bunch of STUFF that I havent got to post so it may not make too much sense being together.
I will start off with this lovely pic of my friend Cheyenne:) Isn't her costume AWESOME?!?!??! She painted her face with a doile on there. She won the prize for best costume. We have an annual Halloween dress up meeting for our sorority and it is usually at my house. Dee Ann and I were bags of jelly beans. Got the idea on Pinterest. (Don't get me started on that site!)

Oh ,How I love all these girls!!!!

My little Crue bear turned 4 months old!!!! He is getting so big and he is just as happy as ever. At his 4 month appointment he weighed 16lbs. 4 oz. He is in size 3 diapers now!!!

He has the sweetest disposition.

We wrapped Briggs' soccer season up this past weekend and I am so proud of their little team. They did so good and I think just lost 2 games. I had to bring snacks so I made these soccer cookies and put a SHARKS fruit snack in their bag along with some animal crackers.

Cute little sacks.

My little shark:)

Thank goodness Grady feels better. When Grady ain't happy, ain't nobody happy;)

My little soccer player all tatted up.

Briggs getting his medal.

Our family:)

I promise to be better at blogging. Only if all the viruses and bacteria stay away from me and my family.
