PUMPKIN PATCH #2

For our second pumpkin patch trip we did the annual Tolmachoff Farms, which the kids love!! Grammy & Grandpa John joined us and we had a great time and even daddy got to come this time!!!

Here is our attempt at a family photo ... hahahaha ... impossible!!!

The infamous corn pit ... every year we manage to bring home atleast one piece of corn some how some way ... this year was Rilyn's shoe, last year was Charlotte's ear!!! LOL!!

HAPPY "HAVASU" ANNIVERSARY!!

This year we decided to celebrate our "Havasu Anniversary" opposed to our "Sedona Anniversary" (hahahaha) so we planned a trip down to Lake Havasu with some family and good friends and enjoyed 4 days of the boat, sandbars, beer, sunshine, horseshoes and most importantly relaxation and a little time to ourselves without the kiddos!! It was such an AMAZING time and I dont think anybody wanted to come home (besides the fact that I couldn't wait to see my babies!!). You know you're having a good time when 2 and a half days passed and I realized that I hadn't called my kids nor even checked my phone to make sure everything was good ... lol ... a big ol' thank you to Grandma & Grammy for tag teaming them and taking such good care of them while we were gone!!! Along with Uncle Bradley & Aunt Lorie who hosted a "camp out sleepover" full on with a fire, bbq, marshmallows, tents and all!! The boys had a BLAST!!

All 8 of us on the boat ... woot woot!!!

Naked Turtle Pina Colada Bucket!!!

In so many ways I cant believe six years has already gone by but in others I cant believe it has only been six years since we got married!! I am so proud of where we have been, so happy with where we are & so excited to see what the future has in store!! Happy Anniversary To Me & My Baby!!!

"BALLPARK LIVIN' ..."

The flashback's have already began of the days of living at the ballpark!! Trey started T-Ball and was able to get on the same team with Cortney!! Now all we have to do is ditch the cast which happened last Wednesday (the 20th)!!! Ashlynn and Aly also started a girls softball team that Bradley & Lacey are coaching ... so I believe our days and nights at the ballpark are going to be long and many!! Takes me back .. it is weird to be the adult watching now though, I must say!! Cant wait for it all to get started!!

"CATCH UP..CATCH UP..CATCH UP!!!"

We have had another amazing week & weekend and boy o' boy am I waaaayyyyyy behind on this blogging stuff .. hahahaha .. tomorrow's agenda - upload pictures and blog away!!! Cant wait to share all the fun stuff we have been up to!!!

"PUMPKIN PATCH #1"

Last Friday night we joined the Creel Family (thank you guys so much for the invite, we had a great time) at the MacDonald Ranch Pumpkin Patch and the kids had so much fun they are still talking about it!!! We had to take a wagon ride over to where the pumpkins were and on the way back Charlotte, Trey & Rhett got to drive the horses!! I had one rule when picking out pumpkins and that was "you can only have it if you can carry it to the truck" without daddy there to help I wasn't about to be luggin' 4 big ol' pumpkins back!!! Although Michael did inform me that Trey was getting the short end of the stick with that rule .. with his broken arm and all!! lol!! The next day I let the kids paint faces on their pumpkins since it was waaayyy to early to carve them and I was pretty impressed with the end result!!

"RILYN & the three B's"

Blanky, Binky & BearBear!! The girl loves her b's and drags them around with her everywhere she goes ... here she is caught in the action!!! Poor BearBear is in desperate need of a bath!!

"OUR PROUD KINDERGARTNER"

Last night we went to an Open House at Trey's school and he got to show us all around his classroom and show us what his day at school is like ... oh my goodness was he EXCITED and PROUD!!! It was way too cool he COULD HARDLY WAIT to introduce us to all his friends, show us his table, playground, cubby, and all the cool stuff around his class!! He even took me over to introduce me to his teacher, which was so funny because we have met & talked many of times, but of course I just played it off and let him do his thing!!! I am so so so happy that he is loving school and has made lots of friends!! Mrs. McMahon says that he is an awesome student and having no problems at all even with his broken arm!!
