pumpkin patch

park day

Before he turns all green - he LOVES to swing.

yes, she has some serious plumbers crack going on. yes, i have a picture of it.

:-)

Because I'd hate for you all to look at a photo of a dryer while you were checking for an update!

Is this love????

A family of five - without a dryer for THREE weeks. I was determined that my fabulous husband would be able to fix it. He can fix anything.

Secretly, going to the laundrymat is not so bad. 10 loads at once - a weeks worth of laundry - done in 3 hours. Then a folding party at home. It really wasn't so bad.

But - I finally accepted that my dear husband would not be able to fix it. I think I had forgotten how nice it is to have a dryer. And not have clothes hanging all over your house drying. And I started using downy instead of dryer sheets - a whole new enjoyable experience. But when it comes down to it - I love my new dryer. I love Bounce dryer sheets. I love staying home and doing laundry in my nightie.

Festival at the Park

She is such an animal lover. There was no doubt she was going to ride the horsey. That's the reason we went. Riley hung out with his mommy while she was riding. my little boy, not so much an animal lover
Then doing some running around plus pizza for dinner and the most fabulous end to the evening = tea party with Daddy.

Happy Halloween

The first of many outfits. This will take her mind off the cinderella costume for about....oh.....four minutes.

So sweet

They are so sweet together. Every morning when I get up I pour them both a glass of juice, and Adyson will always grab Riley's and bring it to him before she grabs hers and joins him.

Whenever I ask a question, "Who loves ice cream?" "Who wants to go to the park?" Riley will always respond with "WE DO" or "US"....always including his little sister. It is the sweetest thing in the world.
Don't get me wrong - they fight daily, more than once, but deep down they love each other. It's so sweet.

Are they twins???

I get that question ALL the time. I mean almost everyday. They are the same height/size (though it doesn't really show very well here). Riley is about to hit another growth spurt--he must with the way he is eating. Every once in a while (normally with jammies) I pretend they are twins. see? It's kinda fun!

Random things to do while wearing a tu-tu

Play
Eat a peach

Take a nap

Save elecricity
watch TV Ride on daddy's shoulders
Get blanket and purse and get ready for bed

Happy Birthday

My little boy is now officially 4 years old. It makes me very sad. My babies!!!! How could it have been 4 entire years? Wait--didn't I say that EXACT same thing on Shane's birthday? Let me go check that post. Yup. Sure did. You would think I'd have gotten used to it, but I guess not.

Anyway--there is a house full of spidermen and transformers and a whole lot of tiny peices to little toys that already are well, we'll just say they are "missing". Oh--and then there was that rockin' ice-cream cake from dq. Woo-Hoo! Shout out for an employee discount!! Thanks Sha-Sha.
Happy Birthday Riley!!!!!

Labor day

I can't say it enough.
Good-bye summer.
He went out with a BANG!!

The final Keough/Keaton BBQ of the hot, hot unbelievably long and hot summer.
