Who?!?!?

Last night the boys had a little trouble falling asleep right away, so I snuggled with each one of them in their beds. When I reached Case's room, we laid in silence, with his tiny arms stretched out around me and said..."momma...did you know that Bob Ricky drives race cars?"
"Who", I asked!?!?! "Bob Ricky!!!" he said.
Then I knew what he was talking about...Ricky Bobby off Tallidaga Nights...
I said "Don't you mean Ricky Bobby?" "Yeah", he said...like that's what he'd been saying the whole conversation...I had to keep from laughing until I went downstairs...I couldn't wait to share Bob Ricky's news with Jim!!!! I love what kids say and how they get stuff messed up!!! :)

nothing new going on here...

Nothing really to blog about right now...
This was taken last week...

Puttin' out fires...

Last Friday at MOPS (Mothers of preschoolers), we were taught how to use a fire extinguisher... it was great, I had never used one before...hopefully I will never have the chance to try out my new skills...!!!

(thanks to Wendy who took my picture for the blog...she has her own blog by the way...go check her out here.)

SNEAK PEAK

Here's a little "nibble" of our photo session we had yesterday after church...I told the boys we were going to get our pictures taken...so they would be more careful about not getting dirty within 5 minutes of getting dressed...
We got to our destination and Case goes "who's comin' to take our pictures?" I responded, "aahh, Me"... sorry to disappoint you...I guess for the last few months we've had a thousand pictures taken with Jenni's wedding and receptions by a real photographer... sorry, momma's just a wanna-be... :)

(be sure to click on the picture to enlarge it so you can read the captions...Case came in while I was working on this picture on the computer and wanted to know why I was making rain clouds over our heads!)

Knock knock...who is it...it's my sister blogging...

I'm so excited...and I just can't hide it...I know I know I know I know...sorry, the song was going through my head and I just lost it after "I'm so excited"...

My sister, after a lot of contemplating, has started a blog...so everyone please follow along with her as she shares her adventures of being a new wife, living in a fast paced world in the city of Phoenix...well, she's been there for probably close to 10 years, so she's used to fast paced, but being a newlywed will surely hold some funny stories...I can already think of one...the microwave...hopefully she'll share that later...
Welcome Jenni!!! Go take a look and add her to your blog list!! You can find her at "the cat lady".

candy, cowboys, and a cranky ghost...

From his view, he must have been thinking..."this must be what heaven looks like"...
End of trick or treating...nothing like a big cotton candy ball to eat right before bedtime...

This pumpkin had way too many sweets...

We went to two different trunk-or-treats in town at some local churches...this one you caught the candy when it came down the tube...

Nothing like a huge, fat, ugly spider sitting on top of a vintage hot rod...nice...

I could never get a picture of both the raccoons posing for me...Hayden was in a foul mood about his costume and him not being able to see or something...big deal...he could see in it the day before at school, but not this night...

Mom, stay out of their candy bag, please...

The ghost running away from the camera sassing me the whole time...

Aahhhhh, our cute little cowboy...he looked so handsome...

He had this mustache for 3 days...he didn't have time to shave...busy schedule, eating candy...

Case and Granny made strawberry ghosts...he was only concerned about eating the mini chocolate chips...

Granny took him in to the grocery store and let him ride in this...thanks mom, now I have to use this every time we go there now...it's like driving a hollow plastic double wide on wheels without power steering in tiny store isles...
