Long time, no blogging...stupid computer...


Once again, I am sorry for not blogging in decades...this time our monitor shut down for no apparent reason...gosh, I just love computers and how I'm so lost without one...

So in this post, there are several different events-all combined... so sit back and enjoy...it's good to be back.


Case had his first preschool program a couple weeks ago...he's really shy, so we bribed him with a pop...silly, I know. but we never drink pop in our house, and he's had a taste of Pepsi, thanks to grandpa Billy...so that's what he wanted...on the condition he sang and participated at his program...and he did. He was so cute up there singing and doing the motions...we were so proud of him!! That's our little baby up there!!!! :(

Okay, so Coke and Pepsi are the same to a little boy who never gets pop!!!
He was asking daddy if we could go already...Case, they're not going to run out of pop at the gas station...

God, please let this program be over quick...





Last week we headed over to a retirement party for one of Jim's co-workers...they boy's had tons of cake, punch, and chips and salsa...(for two weeks these kids have had nothing but junk!)...


"I am Shining Moon"...I come in peace...

Hayden's class had a Thanksgiving Feast...they made their own costumes...aren't they cute...he came home, hid in the bedroom and then came out to show me his outfit!!!


For Thanksgiving we went to Aunt Marsha and uncle Dick's again...we always have a fantastic time there...Marsha went all out for us this year spending $5.99... :)
The turkey's cutting the turkey...

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!!! :)

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".
