Liam and Jackson

Liam and his friend Jackson. We love to have play dates with Jack. =) These two guys love to get together and pLaY. Watching them interact together is too funny.=) They try to be so grown up about things. Showing each other their toys and how they work, telling each other what to say or nOt say, arguing over toys they care nothing about until the other guy has their hands on it, riding bikes is a must, power wheels, play grounds are always a hit, farm toys, trucks, animals, toy guns/swords, fishing they lOve to fish and play with the bait =), McDonald's before the "swine flu", bowling for the first time...they loved it. Two Peas in a Pod.

Out of the loop

I have been out of the loop all summer...=( For more reson than one I have not had the chance to blog in MONTHS! Soooo many things have happend, where do I dare begin?? Plenty times I have thought to myself oh...I will have to blog about this or that, but now that I am here loooking into the computer screen my mind is drawing a blank : }...mmmmmmm....well Luke was laid off May 1st from the Base...we put our house up for rent and moved in with my in-laws as of September 1st...oh joy. Let's just say it has been hell. Just plain awfull...but I am finally learning to deal with the hand I was delt and just do what I have to do as a parent and find a j-o-b...asap...with much struggle even finding a job interview ANYWHERE(you name it, I applied there) I had to settle for serving tables at a resturant/sports bar...oh joy. Any of those out there that know me would know this is one occupation I should never try... Not that I do anything bad just that...I am VeRy forgetful and clumpsy, to say the least.=( but A girl has to do what a girl has to do, right? Therefore, a "Dad" has to do what a "Dad" has to do , right?? Be a stay-at-home-Dad. This has turned out to work way better than I had thought it would. Normally Liam doesn't like to leave my side but with his Daddy keeping him while I am working has changed his tune...Liam says "peace out Mommy...don't be long."XOXO...The 2 of them have had a blast riding 4wheelers, riding bikes,catching frogs, buying new toys, grilling out and play, play, play, they just go, go, go. Honestly, I thought Luke would be over it, by now, but he likes it way more than I ever imagined. This works out great for me, because I don't have that guilty feeling of leaving Liam and I get to venture out and socialize with grown-ups. =) And most important...bring home the BACON, baby!!

Thirty-One (personalized gifts)

Thirty-One (personalized gifts)

I was recently invited to a 31 party hosted by a friend of mine and I believe I was hooked from there out. Here are just a mere sample of items I am selling. You can also look at my website www.mythirtyone.com/8522 to view the whole catalog and make orders online.(I would be happy to mail anyone a catalog) This is a great time to look, because they just came out with a kids line "31kid". ADORABLE! Mom's check out the "thermal tote" I bought one(at my friends party) and it has been a life saver for Liam and I, we take are drinks and snacks everywhere now and keep them cold!! Plus we get compliments galore on the CAMO print and monogramming. By the way You can have a catalog party if the distance between us is to far(not you Leslee)... =) Doing so you earn 10% of your party's total, to put towards your purchase and earn items for half- off, plus other hostess gifts. So please tell your friends, family and co-workers. =)

No words...

Napoleon Dynamite or Kanye West??? Neither??? Wow...these are special!! Thanks, mother-in-law...you shouldn't have. =) This is my more than awsome sister-in-law, Kattie Jo in the picture with me. We could not get enough of these sun glasses her Mom bought us, they are too funny. I did not leave the back yard with these on, Kattie Jo... I can not say the same, she wore them in public...not me I wouldn't wear them to the mail box...if you know what I mean...yikes!! Anyways it is the thought that counts...right???

Camel Jockey

A day at the zoo with Liam and my nephew Isaiah...

Two weeks ago we spent the weekend in Birmingham, AL visiting my Aunt Ruth (also my Grandmother "GG" was in town from PA) who was kind enough to treat us all to a day at the ZOO. So as you can see Liam and I rode a CAMEL, carousel, and train. The two boys were in absolute heaven. Liam talks about going back to see Aunt Ruth and her Zoo, on a daily basis. Aunt Ruth & Uncle Will are number #1 in the boys book right now. Notice the animals...they were almost to close for comfort, but they did well for my camera. Thank you, Aunt Ruth I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!!

Baby Blue

Liam would not look at my camera so I told him to make his "eye balls big" and it seemed to work...I got a good shot.
