My Little Pony

Feel free to laugh, because I know I'm silly...BUT it makes me happy. For those of you who don't know, I have quite a collection of My Little Ponies. For the last 2 years I've attempted to display them in my room on a low to the ground shelf...but with 3 small kids the display usually ended in a massive pile of ponies. So Dave in all his genius built me shelves that go up high on a wall for my birthday. This weekend I finally got around to painting them, and he hung them for me last night. Here is the outcome:

4 shelves full of happy organized ponies! I'm so excited! Oh and Dave do you think you could make 1 more shelf??? There are still 7 ponies without a home :)

Fishing

Sorry the pictures are so dim, but you get the idea. The kids have been on a fishing kick lately! Timmy says fish about 100 times a day no exaggeration. Monday evening we took them out to a local park so they could cast their lines.

Our Little Car

This past weekend we took a road trip back to my home town to help my parents clean out a rental property and go through some storage. It was fun to go back and see the old place, family, and friends. By the end of the weekend we had "inheirited" quite a bit of stuff. So it was a tight fit getting everything into our little car Sunday evening. Here is a picture of Dave in the front seat, he sat like that for 3 hours. The kids were pretty squished too, with no leg room and lots of pillows on them. I was driving and definately had the most space of anyone, but even I had bags behind my legs. On a brighter note, gas down there was in the $1.60's!

Fun Days

So in the 5 minutes I was in the bathroom he found and apparently sampled the markers, then moved on to rummaging through my purse hence the sunglasses.

Happy Birthday Addy!

I can't believe my baby girl is 4 today!

Happy Birthday to Me & Laura too!

So today is my birthday and it's been great so far! Dave took Jimmy to school and the other 2 along with him so I could take a nice bath and shower. When i came down this is what I found:I have the sweetest husband ever! So we had breakfast, went clearance shopping at target (75% Halloween stuff = lots of chocolate). Then Dave went to the doctor and the kids and I headed to playgroup. So like a said so far so good. A nice day. This weekend we were lucky to have LOTS of family come and celebrate with us. We celebrated my Dad's bday (3rd), my bday (5th), my Sisters bday (5th also, not a twin 6 years apart), and Addy's bday (8th). So all and all lots of celebration! Saturday night my parents, brother and sister and I all went to the magic time machine for a fun evening out. It was great!

Here is a slide show with more pictures from the weekend:

WooHoo!

The picture says it all. I filled up for under $20!

Halloween in a Nutshell

It's been a busy past week...here are all our Halloween pictures lumped together. We did a playgroup, a trunk or treat, and the zoo boo this year. All were lots of fun!!!
