Pumpkin Patch

Bri had so much fun at the pumpkin patch at Honeysuckle Hill Farm a few weeks ago. It has taken me forever to get these posted, but things have been a little busy around here.
(but what else is new right!)

She loved seeing all the animals. She especially likes chickens. We ever decided on a chicken costume for Halloween. (Pics coming in another post soon I promise....)

She loves pumpkins as well. At least she loves to say PUMPKIN really really loud and throw them...that's the same as liking them , right.......lol

I can't believe how incredibly fast this month has flown by! Where the time goes ....I do not know....but I do know that we dont get it back once its gone.......

Enjoy the moments.............

So.....

I started a new job today.....it was with seriously mixed emotions that I went back to work. Bri is almost 2 now, but I was not crazy about the thoughts of her going to a baby sitter. Turns out when we went to leave when I picked her up ...she ....don't want to mommy...don't want to. She didn't even want to leave.....lol....


Oh well.....at least I know she is in good hands and having a good time with out me!

Im working as a house manager for a doctor/professor at Vanderbilt. He is really nice and I think I am really going to enjoy the work. Its only 18 hrs a week 3 days.... M W F......which gives me every other day off and the weekends. Actually pretty perfect hours.....

So I have returned to the work force with the rest of you.....ill let you know if im still happy about that in a few months!

My Wittle Bumpkin.....

Girls Weekend....

are so much fun! Last weekend Candace, Kayla Jen and I went to the Smokies for 4 days of girls only fun. We hiked, we rode horses, we shopped, we ate and of course we talked!!!!!!!!

Jen is getting married in just a few short weeks and this was her bachelorette weekend...even if she DID talk to Keith ALLLLL WEEKEND!

this is me after hiking to the Chimney Tops in the National Park. It was so amazing to look down on clouds without actually being in an airplane! It was 2 torturous miles up and 2 back, but I am sooooo glad we did!


Here's to girls weekends!!

Jaxon is One!!

Jaxie Poo my lil nephew (2nd cousin actually)is One! I can't believe how all of our little one are growing up so fast. He is so cute and I think he likes his little truck me and aunt Tina got him :)

We love you Jax!

Reminiscing

Bri last fall......can you believe how much she has grown! My how time flys...

Madison is One!!

Mad Pad is one today!! She had really grown and starting changing alot in the last few months and she just started to walk as well. She had the cutest little birthday party in Nannies back yard. It was lots of fun!

We Love You Maddy!!

The Bounty Of.....

the neighbors is so nice......lol. Seeing as that we didn't even close on our house until the end of May a garden was out of the question. However, since I finally got a tiller after all of these years.....I plan to have quite the showing next year. I am even going to try my hand at pumpkins I think!

But anywayz, about once or twice a week I go outside to find little surprises lining the porch railing.......yesterday this box of green beans and tomatoes was waiting for me and I couldn't help but use them right up.......so glad the neighbors were able to put in a garden this year....... :)

Retraction.....

So....as those of you who attended NAYC with me know.....I was quite critical of the 1920's Indian look ;) Come to find out if you actually FIX your hair and don't just wrap a ribbon around a parted stringy mess its quite lovely!

Cheers!

Crofton County Cupboard.....

I so enjoy our once a month trip up to Crofton, Ky to the Mennonite grocery salvage and store. My pantry is full of all the things I use on a weekly basis for super cheap!! I don't have time for coupon clipping so much but I like the savings I get up there....plus no food tax!!! Gotta love it!
