Christmas Decor!

We had our little brother Nic over to help again this year with our tree and stuff.




We even got R and S to put a couple up on the tree before they lost interest in it.

Creative is all I can say!!

I was in the kitchen getting dinner ready and Josh told me to get my camera ready. I did so and then headed to the living room to see what he wanted me to take a picture of.

This is what I came to see...

S decided that sitting on the couch watching whatever was on wasn't good enough. He needed to sit in HIS seat. So he did!

He was definitely content sitting there!

Better late then never

We spent Thanksgiving this year with friends that are like family to us.

This is little Joshy with Keith in the background...

The younger girls are playing the thumb wrestle game with Josh...

Keith and Danielle reading in the kitchen after dinner...

The four younger boys eating dinner...

The girls playing with Josh again....

S being totally content on Kennys' lap...

Dannielle and Nikky debating something while munching on Chex Mix...

Logan is Kenny and Jodis' youngest...

The host and hostest with the mostest!!!

Jodi before she went to lay down cause she got sick... It was a real bummer!!

R snacking all day!!

S very content with the blankets, stuffed animals, and the toy car. All while watching football most of the day!!

It was a great night with great friends. Keith and Sue made an awesome dinner for everyone to enjoy!

Another cheesecake

Here is my Marbled Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake...

Before being cooked...

After being cooked...

It's not really that shiny, I just had some saran wrap on it for traveling purposes.

Playdoh!

The boys really like to play with playdoh!

S was kind of hesitant at first but then get into it.


R was looking at me like I was crazy for taking his picture... Oh well!

Hunting

Josh went hunting in November and got a deer. Skeeter decided she needed to help butcher it...



She is quite the little helper!

Tis the season...

Here is one of the trees in our front yard....
This is the shed in the backyard...

Hee hee, this is how much snow we had...


Now we only have about 2 inches..

Our backyard as of a couple days ago...

Skeeter is almost too small to be playing back there... Quite funny

Kunami, however, likes to just bound around like she is a deer!

R likes blankets

Boy Howdy, R really likes to be wrapped in blankets...

He will most of the time go sit on the couch with one of his blankets and just cover himself up and sing...I should try to get that on video here soon...

All three of them

Here are all three boys watching cartoons on TV.

Typical Josh sleeping.... S waving to me. I didn't realize that until I uploaded the pic. Quite Cute..

R is really trying to concentrate on whatever cartoon is on. He wouldn't even look at me while I was taking the pic.

What did I tell you???.....

It must be an S thing, cause both S and Skeeter are the culprits...HA HA HA HA

I just don't know what to say about it!

Respit

With Josh gone hunting with our friends, Keith, his daughter Nicky, and Kenny, the boys are using some of the respit with Linnae and Jeremy, I am home all alone. It is definately quiet. I tried sleeping in today... that didn't happen. Maybe tomorrow.

The boys are using their respit, not because I can't do it on my own (which I do daily) but because I work today and tomorrow (Saturday and Sunday). I will be picking them and all their stuff up on Sunday night after I get off work around 9pm.

Well I am off to do something chores around the house and to make a cake for when Josh gets home. Will post pictures of it at a later date.. It will be awesome!!

Dogs vs. Kids

Between the boys and the dogs...

Even with being how cute they are....

We can't keep cushions on our dang couch!!


Oh, but look at the face S gave me!!!

BROOM!!!

Did you know that if you tap a broom on the floor then let go of it, it will stay standing?? TRY IT !!!


Josh didn't think it would work so I showed him and documented it with a picture. Can you get yours to do it??

Happy Birthday

I hope you have a great birthday dad!!!

Happy Halloween to everyone, even though it's a day late!!!

My Halloween cheesecake...

I had tons of fun making it...

As well as the next few are the cupcakes I made for the kids at the party we went too... Had a blast making them too!!




Then the boys...

Josh took them both trick or treating on Saturday night. I had to work so I wasn't able to join in on the fun.

I don't think he took any pics... BUMMER!!!
