Day Twenty-nine

This was one of those days I just couldn't pick one. We had a great time this day. Bekah, Abby and I went to Salem for Abby's hair cut and for a shopping trip.

Here is Abby before the cut.

Us after the cut

I think she looks so cute. The cut really fits her.

This is me doing a selfie!! Everyone else is doing them so I thought I should too.

These pants were so tight Abby couldn't even bend her legs.

Bekah is trying to get them off Abby.

Abby, the biker chick!!

We wandered in to Victoria Secrets and found the free sample make-up. Needless to say, we tried most all of what was there. The sales lady finally came over to "clean up" but I could tell she was watching us.

A dress I thought that would look good on Bekah, not.

After the V.S. make-upfest.

Just getting a little lunch. Abby really wanted the all you can eat pancakes. She ate two.

Day Twenty-eight

Bekah laid her head on my shoulder while we were watching TV today. It was the best!!!

Day Twenty-seven

This is what Larry woke up to on his birthday. Ben left a sweet message on the white board before he left for school.

Day Twenty-six

Sadly, this is the best picture I have for this day. We celebrated Larry's birthday and when it was time for blowing out the candles my camera died. So this is a decent picture of the cake and candle but not of Larry.

Day Twenty-five

 

Abby, Grace and Ben in all their glory.

 This was taken at Ollie (our nephew) birthday party. He turned two. He loves the kids and they love him.

 Here is Sarah and Abby all ready for the Father/Daughter Ball. Sarah came to help out but Abby went with her dad and grandpa.

This was taken just as Abby walked away. I'm bummed she wasn't in it.

Day Twenty-four

Again, I can't decide on just one picture for this day.

This first one is of Bekah and Abby delivering 50 balloons for the Father/Daughter ball. They had some fun trying to get them all in the Explorer.

This is the clock. It's A.M. It's the time I got to bed after Bekah came into the bedroom to talk. Some times our talks go late in the night. It seems it's the only time we have to really talk.

Day Twenty-three

Sometimes I just can't pick one picture to post. The first picture is Chloe gazing at Franklin the turtle. Up till then, Chloe knew the turtle was in there but never really did much about it. She was too small. After taking this picture, Chloe got up and batted at tank.

The second picture is Chloe in her "paint me as like your French models" pose. She is a strange cat. I can hardly pet her. I'm hoping that she calms down after she gets fixed.

Day Twenty-two

I was really bummed I missed the picture I wanted to get on this day. It should have been a picture of me and friend, Pam. We finally were able to connect for a much needed girl time. I substituted my coffee cup for the regular picture.

Day Twenty-one

This is a burn I got on my arm from work. I pulled a flat pan out of the oven and it barely touched my arm. I ran it under cold water really quickly and it hardly hurt.

Day Twenty

Today is going to be catch up day till Duck Dynasty comes on. Then I'm off to watch that.

This is one of my most prized possessions. It's a tree skirt that was made by Mammie, Larry's grandma. It matches the Christmas stockings we have. It's made from really nice felt. You can totally see the love that was put into it. It's one of the few things I have I would be really upset if it got ruined.

Day Nineteen

I came home to find my oven all clean! My son, Ben, did this all on his own. It hasn't been this clean in a long time.

Day Eighteen

What I watched this night. One of my favorite movies!!!

Day Seventeen

My Ducks girls.

Day Sixteen

Beautiful Bekah

Day Fifteen

Guess where I got to go today? Actually, it was last Wend but I'm just now getting the pics off my camera. Larry's sister in law and brother in law treated my family and I to a Blazer game. It never fails that whenever we go to Blazer games we always have some crazy sort of people sitting near us. This year was no exception. Alex said they are there because they pay for cheap seats so they can spend more money drinking beer so they tend to be more crazy. Of course, my kids are not shy to befriend these crazies and join in the fun.

Bekah spent most of the game playing with the baby. She even got her to sleep during all the noise. She had to shield one ear with her body and the other with a blanket and hold it close when there was an uproar.

Ben spent much of his night playing with his cousin, Ollie.

Here are more pics just cuz they are so cute.

Alex, Abby and Ollie

Abby making the baby cry. :)

Annie holding on to Abby's finger

Sweet Ollie

Sweet Annie

Sleeping Annie

Bekah, the baby whisperer.

This is kind of hard to see but Ben is scratching Ollie's back. Ollie LOVED it.

Day Fourteen

This might seem like a strange picture to share but it's a big deal to me. This is a dishwasher. It has been broken for almost 7 years but today Larry Bekah and Abby fixed it. This makes both me and the kids very happy.

Day thirteen

  

I love when I see the kids reading. If only she wouldn't read all day long!

Day Twelve

I'm not sure why Bekah decided to sit on Abby but it made for a good picture!

Day 11

This was left on our whiteboard by our daughter-from-another-mother. It was so sweet.

Day Ten

This is a strange picture but I wanted to post a picture of where I work. The right side is where I serve food and the left is the ovens.

Day Nine

This is our new to us guinea pig. Her name is Cookie.

Day Eight

I really wanted to get a picture of both hamsters on the wheel but I didn't have time to wait for them to both get in. They love to run together though. Sometimes they get going real fast and one will flip out. I think this one is Pip.

Day seven

Another two fer. Two pictures for the price of one. One the left is the paper towels that Chloe killed. On the right is Chloe and one of her moms, Alex. Alex had to hold her so I could get the picture. When I showed the paper towels to Alex she said, "So that was what you were doing while I was in the shower!"

Day Six

Ok, I decided to do a two fer. Two pictures on one day. The left picture is a picture of the awesome new shoes I found at Goodwill. They are Tommy Hilfiger brand and super cool. They just need a bit of a wash and will be as good as new. They were only $9.99.

The right side is a picture of these masks things the girls got in their stockings. The are like paper that you peel off and put on your face. When you are done you just peel the paper off your face. This is what the girls decided to do with them when they were done. Lovely.

Day five

This is were I spent much of my time today. The family and I were suppose to clean up outside by that fell by the wayside. We watched the old Footloose and the new one. Personally, I like the old one better but the kids like the new one. Here is hoping for a more productive tomorrow.

Day 4

We have a place in our bedroom where Sam can go and sleep. She has a blanket, a pillow and a stuffed animal. Whenever I can't find her she is in there sleeping in the sunshine beams. Sometimes Kota is a brat and will lay in Sams spot. Then Sam gets all worried and walks around the room. We have to yell at Kota to get her to move. My pets are such kids sometimes.

Day 3

This is what I spent part of my day doing. Organizing our bills. I found a good site online that gave me some good info on how to organize and so I took on the challenge. You can see the nail polish on the table also. I did a little polish while taking a rest.
