Am I allowed to say I’m getting a little tired of football?
We go to practice every afternoon. The girls have friends there so they love it.
Me? Well, I have other things to do. But for the good of the family, I go.
(Do you want to smack me yet?)
Here is Jena at last weeks game.
One braid [...]

I have been attempting to finish this quilt for over a week now.
My original plan failed because I can not find the thread I used to applique the stars on.
I attempted an overall stipple and hated it so after about 4 squares I stopped and unpicked it.
I attempted to machine quilt stars all over and [...]

Sara and I have decided to just hang out in our PJ’s today, get over our colds, continue our potty training and take a big long nap and maybe finish a few quilt tops I have been neglecting.
We’ve all been fighting the latest bug that’s going around.
Everyone’s nose is looking a little like this but [...]

We took a Super Quick, as in less than 24 hours, camping trip over the Labor Day weekend. It was a packed weekend anyway with work, football and Ry’s bday party and then I was informed (and if you know my dad, you know what I mean) that we were coming camping with them after [...]

I know everyone says this but really…I can’t believe he’s 8!!!
He requested a Football Field cake. Not my most favorite cake I’ve ever made but he was happy and that’s all that matters right?
Probably the favorite gift, Football Gloves. 2nd would be the cash, cause who doesn’t like cash?
Jena….being Jena.
We had family over for Cake [...]

This is what happens when you get home from your morning jog and notice your yard is full of weeds.
So you start weeding them and to keep the two year old occupied you turn on some High School Musical Tunes and hand her the iphone.
She sits perfectly content in the grass singing away at the [...]

We have a lot of rocks around our neighborhood.
A bazillion actually.
Great big climbing rocks.
The kids love them.
(that is my niece Sydney, just in case you were wondering.)
And if your wondering if this post has a point, well it doesn’t.
Accept that my kids are cute.
And calm, brotherly love moments like this one, happen about ummm…I think [...]

Do you see that?
No not my ugly 80’s blue carpet.
The board.
The broken board on Ryan’s bed.
This is an example of what happens when your children decide it is a fantastic idea to pile all the pillows in the house on top of the bed and then jump as high as they can and land on [...]

Prepare yourself for 21 pictures.
I like pictures.
I can’t just pick a few.
You’ve been warned.
Isn’t he cute?
He looks so grown up in his uniform. (why does that word sound wrong?)
I now believe every boy should play football. It’s such a great outlet for all their hitting, kicking, knocking each other around energy! They get to tackle [...]
