Bad Blogger 09/22/2009
 
Man, I have been a bad blogger.

and a bad blog reader

and blog poster

I think once it gets cold I'll get back in the groove (since there is nothing else to do in the cold)

I've lost the blog groove, I just don't feel like blogging

So I blog about not blogging

maybe one day something really cool will happen, and then I'll make sure to blog

Until something cool happens...I'll check ya later
 
Missing Husband 09/20/2009
 
Have any of you seen my husband?

I haven't seen him for several hours.

Wait...I can hear the television on.

Oh! And he informed me that football season has started.

This was our conversation this morning

Kirk: "I have some good news and bad news"

Me: "Ok, what's the news"

Kirk: "Football season has started, that's the good news. Bad news is I will be sitting in front of the tv ALL day.

Me: "Oh, joy"

He's really not missing, but thank you football season for making my husband be completely glued to the tv.

I found him :)
 
 
Ash: "Why didn't Jesus make cop cars faster?"

He's on a Jesus kick, he wants to know why Jesus did or did not do things the right way. What a kid!
 
Clogging 09/15/2009

I started clogging tonight! I had a pretty good time, even though I felt completely awkward at first, I had an a-ok time :)  Definitely a good work out. Yay for clogging
 
 
So my giant sunflowers are looking totally awesome! I just had to share how pretty they are. There is something about them that make me feel bright and cheery :)

Don't you just love them? Soooo pretty :)

I may not look like I am enjoying my sunflowers, but I am - I was just being a dork and taking a picture of myself, it was bright and sunny hence my squinty look.

I hope you enjoyed some of my flowers, because I ♥ them :)

Thanks for letting me share.

One day last year in the winter...I thought I would be crafty and spray paint a bunch of picture frames black. I trudged out into the cold, sprayed and sprayed - my fingers were exhausted, cramping even - and when I went inside I had FROST BITE on my spraying finger. It was a tragic tragic day, serioulsy - it sucked. 

I haven't spray painted anything because who wants to get frost bite again, or hurt their finger? Not me...

Recently at my trip to Wally World, I found these trigger things you attach to your spray paint can.

I tried it out today, and let me tell you....it's my new best friend. The $2.99 I spent to buy it - well worth the money.

It makes the spray paint go on evenly and sprays so nicely.

If you spray paint anything - go buy one - it's well worth it.

I now have this odd feeling to go start spray painting things, it's that much fun :)

I'll have to show you the project I did today, when it dries :)

Yay Spray Paint trigger thing - I ♥ you.
 
 
Well, I survived a house of 8 and 9 year olds. We had 11 girls running around, crazy wild children when you bundle that many together- but we had a great time. Shylee had a great time celebrating her birthday with her friends. We had a good time playing games, doing a treasure hunt, dancing and hanging out!

All the cute girly's down stairs playing around :) Apparently "peace" is the thing you do when you are in third grade!

Happy Birthday Shylee (officially on Saturday) I can't believe you are NINE years old...where the heck did time go?

Love you lots and lots my chica roo ♥
 
Idaho State Fair 09/09/2009
 
This past weekend we headed out to the Idaho State Fair where we had a lot of fun! From Mutton Bustin to horse races, to fried twinkies and fried oreos - what's not to love about a good ol' Fair! Enjoy...
Picture
Ash right before his Mutton Bustin experience, he was sooooo excited!
Picture
I thought it was cute, a bunch of little cowboys came over to check out the sheep before the big ride!
Picture
Shy and Ash right after he got done riding the sheep!
Picture
My cute mother in law came and hung out with me for the day, since Kirky was out farming. She was even a good sport and wore a cowgirl hat as well, we were keeping it real country style :)
Picture
Me and my kiddos, I really like how this picture turned out - it makes me smile :)
Picture
Ash checking out the horses!
Picture
My first time making a bet at a horse race, I only bet $2.00 and won $0.00 - dang horse #5!
Picture
The horse that was supposed to win when I bet - dang horse!
Picture
I went and chilled at the horse races with my good pal Sadie and her family. I was happy to hang out with them since I was a solo lady (dang busy farming) but we had a good time. It was my first time going to the races, and I loved it!
