He may not be as handy with cars... but this man knows his way around computers... four hours later and my broken computer is all better! Hoooray!!

11/14-16 - Sunday-Tuesday

 

No trip to Albertson's would be complete without a trip to the bakery for a free cookie!

Somehow he didn't get the memo that he's only two and not five and thinks that he can climb the big kid toys at the park... and wants to give his mama a heart attach when he tries to jump.

 

Snuggling on the couch... a favorite Sunday activity! 

11.13.10 - Saturday

The boys running Saturday errands.

This little one ADORES his daddy... I hope they're always best buddies.

p.s. notice their matching Real Salt Lake hats... I love it!

11.12.10 - Friday

A little Friday night Rock Band at the Francks house. Look how cute the littlest Francks is with his guitar that's almost as big as he is.

p.s. please ignore the piles of blankets, pillows and stuffed animals... that's another one of Buddy's projects going on.

11.11.10 - Thursday

I started taking swimming lessons... like to learn how to swim. I'm totally embarrassed... but super excited too!

11.10.10 - Wednesday

The best fifty cents I spent all day!

11.9.10 - Tuesday

I love Christmas shopping online... you just click a little button and packages start magically appearing on your porch!

11.8.10 - Monday

Sometimes you should have pudding for breakfast... how can you have a bad day when you start the day with dessert?

11.7.10 - Sunday

Buddy's first introduction to olives... let's just say he's not a fan.

What's not to love... there's one for each finger!

11.6.10 - Saturday

Loads and loads of stuff dropped off to Goodwill... my junk is now someone elses treasures!

11.5.10

A date with Tracy at the park... we talked and walked and caught up on life.

It was such a beautiful, perfect day!

11.4.10 - Thursday

Even more birthday presents from Grandma Mary... imagine our joy when it was Caillou video and a BYU jacket. We love birthday presents!!

11.3.10 - Wednesday

Buddy loves the "pompoms" (pumpkins) all lined up... It doesn't matter that I arrange them on my porch and bench... if he's around they end up in a straight line in the driveway. 
He's so so cute.

11.2.10 - Tuesday

A teddy bear picnic with our play group... we love play dates!!

11.1.10

Sitting out the porch enjoying candy corn and a rainstorm with my favorite little man. Sometimes its the little things that bring the most joy.

October 25-31, 2010

One of our family service projects this year was to go trick or treating at a nursing home... Buddy had no clue what was going on but we had a fun night trick or treating at a couple of nursing homes and then going to Parkside Baptist Church with the Haut's.

Friday Night FrightFest at Sherman Park.  Basically way too many people trick or treating to the local merchants. 

Mummy and spider eggs... one of our favorite Halloween dinners!

I love Texas this time of year... driving through the country and seeing field after field with rolls of hay. So pretty.

A little Halloween love from Lib!

Nothing makes a drab and dreary little backyard festive like a bunch of pumpkins...

Speaking of festive... it's Halloween week! One of my favorite weeks of the whole year!

October 21-24, 2010

Halloween treats for neighbors and friends from the "Francks"enstien's

Pumpkin Waffles with walnuts and creamy Buttermilk Syrup... be still my beating heart. I'm hopelessly in love.

(recipe will be included in pocket!)

A FABULOUS scrapbooking weekend in SE Texas with my Louisiana girls... we stayed at the cutest little cottage, had all our meals prepared for us, a massage and three days of scrapbooking... life really does not get better than this.

One of buddy's favorite birthday presents bought... he picked it out himself. And yes, it really does take up our whole house!

October 17-20, 2010

A little darker than my normal Halloween decor... but it kinda fits my mood this year.

One of my favorite parts of Halloween are the cute shirts from Target!

He mostly just humors me :)

Pet stores give me the hives... but in attempts at getting good mommy points I took him to the pet store so he could get his pet fix. He loves them... I don't... this is how we compromise.

A little weekend reading? He piled all the pillows and blankets in to his old play pen and that got a book?

When I walked in he was just lounging there reading... he's so so cute.
