Busy weekend

This weekend we went to Marshall. We had a great time. Friday night we were able to watch my cousin Jade play Volleyball so we enjoyed that. She is a junior already, can't believe it. I remember when she was born and it was not that long ago. She did a great job. We really enjoyed watching her.

Saturday was "Phesant Opener". Clay was able to come with us this weekend and got to go for the first time. The guys all had a great time. Kalie pup is tired out though. Poor girl. We enjoyed cooking for the guys. Some good ole beef stew and homemade bread with some pumpkin bars for dessert. I just love cooking and I enjoy it more when everyone enjoys it. I need to find out how to get paid for cooking and I would be in my glory. I need a show on food network. Okay keep dreaming......

And a big suprise but Johnnie came and stayed with us for the weekend also so that was great for the girls to bond with her and ME ALSO. It was even enjoyable getting up with her a 4:30 am for a feeding. It has been a long time and I enjoyed the snuggling, it is amazing how much you enjoy that when you don't do it every night, ha ha. The not so good part was Macie and then Maddi followed once I got Johnnie up so we ALL got to enjoy the 4:30 feeding. O'well, they were just excited to see Johnnie and thought it is cool to be up when it was so dark out. Me too........

God Bless.

The Winner


Miss Madelyn was the winner in preschool for the pumpkin coloring contest. One child was picked from every grade. She was so excited. She won a coloring book and crayons and a bracelet. She worked on that pumkpin for a long time and was very proud of it. We are proud of her. Way to go Maddi.

Pumpkin time!

Pumpkin time!

Good afternoon! We took the time today after church and painted pumpkins, a tradition that we have done since Maddi was one I think. The girls had a blast. Macie kept saying "that was fun." She must have enjoyed it. Not sure if her pumpkin will ever dry but she enjoyed it. We picked a cool and rainy day but still managed to get it done. Life has been so busy and out of control lately that I have been feeling like I don't know which way to turn. So it is so nice to take time out and relax and paint pumpkins. Sometimes the small things in life make you enjoy the bigger picture.

We Got the Spirit!







Adrian Homecoming tonight so off to the game we went. The girls both had a friend over. Hali and Macie play today at daycare and are going to be in the same class. Maddi and Moriah are 2 years apart but really like to hang out and they play at daycare also. It was spirit day at school today and Maddi was dressed for it but I did not color her hair and everyone else had it so I was not a cool mom today, but we took care of it before the game. Bummer, I want to be a cool mom and did not think I would let me little girl down already in preschool. I am not that old I am still cool, right??????????? I am having a hard time believing that it is already October, man time is flying by and it is going to be Thanksgiving and Christmas before we know it. Have a great weekend. God Bless you!
