Sunday afternoon

This is what our Sunday afternoon looked like...

...all napping except...

Tyler, he was playing the Wii.
No naps for this boy unless we are in the car going somewhere on a looooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg ride.

Fun Weekend part 2

We celebrated our oldest son's 9th birthday.
Where have the past 9 years gone?
Time sure does pass by quickly...and to think in 9 more years he will be an adult. YIKES!!! Need to erase that thought!

First time purchasing a cake from Target bakery. The icing was super sweet...just the way I like it.
We had a small gathering of family and friends.
Made a promise that when he turns double digits next year we will have a bigger celebration.
Surronded by all the children during gift opening. :)

I love this and will treasure it forever, they really do love each other!

Fun weekend part 1

This past weekend was jam packed with fun.
I will start with this fun first. :)
My youngest had his first t-ball game ever.

Looking so handsome in his uniform.

Ready to run home.

He made it home!!! So proud!!!

Playing 3rd base. I love his stance!

improvising

This is how you read when your brother is sleeping and you share a room with him. {He loves any chance he gets to use my book light, both of my boys think it is the coolest thing.}

My children...

They simply are beautiful creatures from God!

The big one has been so concerned about me.
I love his compassion and his love for others.
He always wants to do what is right and please!
He knows what I like and what I don't.
He knows that even when I am angry and yell at him, it is all because I love him and want him to be the best.

The little one wants to be big and do what his big brother does.
He loves his big brother so much and looks up to him.
He is sweet and my little love bug.
He will cuddle with you and knows when you need a big giant hug.
He is a little wild and crazy.

They are my world and I couldn't imagine life without these 2 boys!

busy, busy, busy

Wow! It has been over a month since I last blogged.
I feel like my life is spiraling out of control and I have very little time for the computer any more.
We have been watching a lot of this.

Not only is Tyler playing soccer his racing season is coming to an end, school started back about a month ago, and Reed is playing t-ball.

(pics of that to hopefully come soon)
Today school is closed due to the Jewish Holiday.
We are going to have lunch with dad today at his work since we never got a chance to do that during the summer.
Have a great day everyone!

ruffled headband

If you have been keeping up with my posts you will see that I have been into making fabric flowers. Well, on my hunt of fabric flowers I came across this tutorial on how to make a ruffled headband. This morning I loaded up my boys and my coupons to JoAnn's and off we went.

I was originally going to do black but my black headband already had flowers glued to it, so I opted for blue instead. As I was shopping around I found some pins on clearance for $1.97 and picked one up to adorn the bottom of the ruffle.

Check out the tutorial....here.

I watched the actually tutorial after I completed mine and discovered some things I did differently but all in all I think it turned out cute and plan to wear it wth my outfit when I go line dancing Wednesday night!
