Family Fun!

I have been working working and working some more.  I had the opportunity of coming home early, so I decided to make a quick stop at the dollar story.  Bought 3 sets of bow & arrows and about 13 finger lights.  Beto asked where is my bow and arrow? 

 I said you don't need them :D  

Beto:  Why?  

Me:  Because you are the turkey!  That set the tone for the rest of the night.  

Such a dork!!! But an AWESOME father.

 In turkey mode

Failed projects 101 & some fun :D g

Sometimes you just gotta laugh.

OK so the girls LOVE to "go acorn hunting". We even go at night with our flashlights and buckets.  I have this big glass jar so what a pretty natural decoration piece, right?  Well just don't wash the acorns.  We should of just dusted them off.  

 

 Do you see the maggot.  Towards the bottom.  

NAAAASSSSTYYYYYY

 acorns started sprouting...WOW

 Jules was NOT happy that we had to get rid of her acorns.

But I told her we would get new ones.

 I just can't get enough of that curl!!!!
I see a "faces curls of Jules" post coming up

 Not so much as a fail but more of a "re-do"

Put magnets on back of ornaments.  

I used the small strip/cheaper magnets.  They keep falling off the board.

The girls did enjoy them.  But I'm going to put bigger magnets on them.  

 I did it MOMMA.

Beto wanted to use his last two gamestop gift cards.  Jules and Vivi (Vivi more than Jules) are going through this, what seems to be a never ending cycle of sicknness...grrr.  Mothers hate sick babies.  I really didn't want to go BUT I have a weak heart for my little baby boy.

This is Beto with his antics.  With his sad face

 Once I told him YES this is what he did.  Yes he is picking his nose.

 Silly

 Big brothers are fun

 "Mom I LOVE this store.  It's my favorite!"

 "Please"

 20 bucks later....for a little bit of candy BTW.

BUT what makes it worth it....

THEY ALL HAD THEIR VERY OWN BAG.

 HA HA...Rookie got locked out and MUST dance to get back in the van :D

FYI i get locked out too but nobody has a camera to take a pic...haha

 SAD but refusing to dance

 Thinks its funny

 Bre with HIS candy and HIS new Halo game

 Things just got real!

He danced for 10 seconds and got back in.  

I was just too busy laughing.

 What's up doc?

 loving her cornucopia 

 still a tad sick but still playing...sorta

 The girls loved playing with their cornucopia.  

Freedom is never free

It's Veteran's Day!  

It's hard to express this holiday to younger children.  But I just kept it simple.  Jules thinks its army daddies that miss there little girls.  That's I guess how she can relate.  The bigger kids can get a better picture but of course not the whole picture.  I hate saying "Happy Veterans Day".  It's a day of remembrance of those we lost but also a honor and thank those currently in service.  I focused on the honoring and less on the remembrance.  

Fall in full gear

I favorite part about fall is the great weather.  Love eating dinner outside with the family.  Here is some pics of the family enjoying s'mores.   Love when the seasons change.  New season means new memories with my crazy but adorable children..AND the love of my my life.

Vivi looks like she is fishing

 My baby girl...where does the time go?

 oh Jules...you always have to watch out for Jules

 I'm not sure what she did to deb-deb but i'm sure it wasn't good

I turn my back and next thing i see is this 

 FELT TURKEY!!!

Gobble Gobble

Bre helped me make these on Saturday night after the girls went to bed. 

We made turkeys, a tree harvest scene and made the girls a cornucopia.  

Jules says coconut-opia. 

 Bre a natural mother hen.  She gets satisfaction making her

sisters happy.  We have so much fun on our project marathons.  

I know she will be a great momma bear when its her time.  

 Jules "taking a bow"

loving Bre's face

 So proud of themselves 

 Lets do it again :D

 "I did it"

templates....i don't need any freaking templates

I can make my own :D

 Bre looking for ideas 

It's about midnight right about now :/

 The cornucopias we made....

we totally rocked the cornucopia out!

 Like my squirrels and acorns :D

 I'm going snap crazy.  I put snaps on.  

When I want to change the background ...

i can just snap a new one on.  YES i'm going snap crazy and I like it.  

Can you see the snap in the right hand corner?
