Our Week

She does love her dad.

 

Cody has been practicing up

on his kicking with the new

stuff he got for his birthday.

 

 

Rylee had a little disaster with

some science experiments he had

to video for his science class.

He forgot he put some dirty plastic

dishes in the oven when he was

trying to get a clean video shot.

He preheated the oven for his last

experiment and it all went down

hill from there.  There was so much

smoke and the vivint alarm was

going crazy!  It took a couple

of hours for the house to air out.

Morning ball running is

getting a little cold

for this girl.

KC gets better sunrise photos

than I do.

I have been working like crazy

in my studio on Christmas orders.

The Butterfly has been very busy!

Cody's 12th Birthday

Today this boys turns 12!

Next year I will have 3 teenagers!!!

 

He spent the morning playing

Madden because I accidentally

forgot to take him to school.

I am a sucker for his baby blues.

And he's a straight A student

and can handle a missed day.

So, why not!

 

He picked Buffalo Wild Wings

for his birthday lunch.

A clean house all ready for

most of the grandparents to

come and celebrate.

He's a weirdo.

 

 

 

Saturday we had Cody's

friend party.  All his favorite

snacks and playing sports

with his good friends was

his perfect party.

Someone got a new hair style!

This is the first time his hair has

been short since he was 2 years old.

He wanted to start using gel

so this is what he decided on.

He thinks he's hot stuff!

 

 

Football and Scrapbooking!

Marley didn't like it and

wanted all the attention.

 

 

We cleaned up the yard and shut

everything down for the winter.

No pretty flowers and gardens.

It just doesn't even look the same.

 

My birthday week!

That means the Christmas tree

gets to go up!

a new weenie cup for my

birthday

 

 

On my birthday day the boys

were at school and KC was at work.

I wrapped Christmas presents and

watched Disney movies all by myself.

The perfect day!

 

A new white weenie from

a friend.

a selfie from my snookem

to end my week.

 

Halloween

Months before Halloween all

3 boys decided they were not going

to trick or treat and just pass out

candy.  Two days before Halloween

Cody and Kade decide they want

to trick or treat.  Costumes were

scarce and this was all we

could come up with.

 

 

Cody was a voodoo man

 

Ry stuck to passing out candy

 

Kade was a mad hatter

 

Not the best, but it worked!

Home from the mountains and I went

straight to getting ready for Halloween!

I am in love with our Halloween mantel.

I'm also still trying to

finish up this quilt.

Getting a little bit closer.

It's been in the 80's around here this week.

Even the upper 80's!

When I saw this flashback post form 2011

I wished we were getting some snow.

 

My Granny came over for dinner

on Thursday.  She taught me how

to make her chicken and dumplings.

They have been my favorite part

of Thanksgiving and Christmas

dinner since I can remember.

She told me that her grandmother

made them every week for Sunday

dinner.  She had lots of stories.

Cody played in his playoff game.

They didn't win a game all season

and this one wasn't much different.

He had a lot of fun though.

 

 

 

We were all there to cheer him on.

 

 

 

We took a little break

Sunday to take the dogs to

run out at the river.

 

They love it so much!

 

 

This little girl was all over

the place.  She will chase that

ball no matter where it goes.

 

 

Getting more tomatoes still.

I think I might make a small

batch of hot sauce out of these.

 

This lazy girl loves her booter.

Another great sunset from

my Snookem.
