All in a Day!

This is how our Sunday started out=(  I mentioned going to the park and Andrew was so excited he started running around and wouldn't you know it, he tripped and did a face plant onto a toy..With all the blood we were sure he knocked out a tooth or something. Luckily he didn't. But he did have a deep gash right below his lip. So we made a little trip to Urgent Care because I wasn't sure if he would need stitches or not.

 My poor baby.

 Kennedy was a great big sister!! 

 My boy thought he was hot stuff! 

 Seriously have you ever seen something so cute?!

 He was soooo brave..He never cried! Yea for liquid stitches!

 After we got home we picked up Mika and went to the pumpkin patch!

 They loved the maze.

 They picked out a pumpkin for carving.

 Next we went to the park,

 Kennedy

 Andrew....I was praying he wouldn't fall again=)

 Mika

 We ended our day with a little carving of the jumbo pumpkin.

I love my babies!!

Kennedy's Music Program

Kennedy and Daddy!

Building 101

One of my new favorite websites is ana-white.com  It is a website that has tons of step by step furniture plans that you can download for free!! After looking at this website for 2 years I finally decided to give it a try.  For my first project I decided to make a coffee/lego table. My dad was so sweet to guide me through it all and teach me how to measure correctly and use all the fun tools.  I  went to Home Depot all by myself to buy my supplies... I quickly got overwhelmed=) Thank you to my dad for saving the day and showing me what I needed.

My children being very "patient" as we get all our supplies!

This is the frame...yes I cut all the wood by myself with a big ole saw!! Well...all except the plywood because it was too heavy.. 

Here is the finished product!

The tops come off and there is great storage..I plan on putting all of Andrew's lego's in there!

I finally got it stained...not sure if I like it that dark...so I will look at it for a few days and maybe redo it!

Soccer Days

Kennedy LOVES soccer!! Every season she gets better and a little more aggressive!

 Ok...so I know it's hard to see but there is a ball in the goal and my girl put it there!!! WooHoo!!

 Go number 7!

I am so proud of you!!

Homecoming

Mika's team had a homecoming game complete with a pep rally, mums, and lots of team spirit... She wasn't even sure what a mum was but she had a blast!

 

 What is a football game without a big entrance!

 

 Their little halftime show...Mika is the one in the front going down into the "splits".

The Wildcat Cheerleaders!

Fire Station Field Trip!

Last Wendsday my sister came over and we went to the  hospital to see our cousin's new baby. She is precious by the way. On our way home we stopped by the firestation so my sister could say hi to her hubby=) This was Andrew's first trip to the firestation. He got to see everything! 

 First he got to sit in the truck. Mr. Scottie even let him start it up...I wish I had a picture of the look on his face because it was priceless. He thought he was hot stuff!

 Standing on front of the truck.

 Then he got to go for a ride in the truck. But first he had to put his earphones/microphone on see he could communicate with the other riders...

This was my first time to ride in a fire truck too! 

 Along the way he saw a fire hat and insisted that he put it on.

 After we got back to the station Mr. Scottie let him put the legs down on the truck to stabilize it so we could raise the ladder.. He got to pull all kinds of levers...He was in heaven.

 Here he is raising the ladder.

 He and Uncle Jon.

 Then Uncle Jon took him up the ladder to pick pecans out of the tree...he threw them at me!

 After they put the ladder "to bed", which Andrew's response was, "Wake it back up!!" Uncle Jon let him spray some water from the hose.

 You can't tell.. but my son is driving the truck...no...really!

And last but not least.. he put on all the bunker gear! Thank you Uncle Jon and Scottie for making his day!! After nap that afternoon he woke up asking to go back=)
