End of September

Many happy birthday wishes to Granny and MeMaw this week!

This has been a "boring" and uneventful week for us.
In fact, most of our fun pictures were taken THIS afternoon.


We did get about 5 minutes of hard rain this week. It was nice while it lasted.


Yep, playing the WT card letting the baby frolic outdoors in diaper solamente.

People talk about coming back as the family dog...
I want to come back as a house cat.
This is what Max did ALL week.
Regardless of the chaos occurring around him, "zzzzzzz".




My sweet bubby.





The mustache:
So, I acquired some fuzzy adhesive mustaches for a project (featured below) and I had extras sooooo.....
Mustache Madness!!



And we ended our week enjoying the cooler temps with a little backyard swinging.

LOVE the hand on the hip :-)


::And now::

How Pinterest Consumed Influenced My Life This Week:
(aside from the hours upon hours of pinning)





::Mozzarella Wrappers::
DISLIKE!!
Wanton wrappers subbed for traditional breading and baked instead of fried.
Don't fix with what's not broke.
::Beef and Bean Taco Cupcakes::



The bomb-digity!
Much better use of the wanton wrappers.

::Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies::
**Not my pic**
AKA Devil Cookies.
Ugh. Sooooo good!!


::Linen Closet Organization::
**Not my pic or my linen closet...rats**
Storing full sheet sets in a pillow case.
Genius!

::The Stache Jar::
A cool little place to "stache" spare change.

::Equestrian Chic::
My new riding boots with high knee socks and jeggings.
Yes, jegging.
I can't believe it either.



Hope you have a super duper weekend :-)

Another Busy Week In Review

We were busy bees again this week. 
Many very Happy Birthday Wishes to Meme and Nana this week.

Our week in pictures::

Who doesn't love Breakfast for Dinner?!
A life saver when you haven't been to the grocery store.





Anything interesting about this picture??

Upon closer inspection, and searching the whole house...one can see that a certain someone thinks she's pretty smart.




 San Antonio for Nana's Birthday!!

After school snacks



















This is what I get
when I ask for a
smile...














Hot Dog!
Muwahahaha Wiener Dog!!











Ready for a birthday dinner!





       We are so blessed!















Here he goes again...
Zzzzzzz





This is a great picture to illustrate our recent perils with mobility...
Thank God he's not on Aspirin anymore...




::And now for a new section I like to call::

(aside from the hours upon hours of pinning)








::Magnetic Refrigerator Organizers::
Pretty organization for the fridge!
(empty cereal boxes covered in scrapbook paper!)

::Spooky Jar Lanterns::

Painted mason jars with timed, battery powered votives





And finally...
I don't know what I'm going to do with this boy.
Look at those big puppy paws!!
 I don't think we're ever going to be able to get him out of this bed...
giving some serious thought to putting this mattress in his room and getting a new one for us.
I don't think he can fit like that in his crib!!

Little Man cannot tolerate a missed nap!!

A Busy End to the Week

Super tired, and it's just Saturday! I've got another 5:30 alarm to snooze thru and Billy has a full day of monkey wrangling left.

We've been busy. Wednesday evening, Nana came up and the crafting and decorating began.






Emmy hitching a ride on Wes' walker.




Making jack-o-lantern magnets with Nana.

We stayed up late and decorated the fireplace and mantel in a spooky witch theme.

We should have known not to stay up so late, because SOMEONE is a well-known early bird.






Wiener Dog is not amused with the early wake up call.
We spent the rest of the day shopping and decorating.

Friday, GD was in town for a visit.






It was my "free day" on my low carb diet. Roast beef poboy...nomnomnom

Fall is TRYING to push it's way into Central Texas. It was in the low 90's and nice and overcast...perfect for enjoying a little late afternoon swing.





Poor W was so enamored with being outdoors. It made me feel bad that we have spent SO MUCH time indoors since he has been well, thanks to the broiling heat. Oh well, we will make the most of fall!!





My sentiments exactly...

Yeah! Beautiful Day!

Oh my God, what a beautiful day it was!
Breezy, sunny and in the high 80's.
Yes, 80's!!
We have been prisoners indoors for over a month and a half due to the extreme heat.
But not today!
We headed over to a park by the house and had a nice family bike ride and stopped for a little play time.

My big boy!




Such a great big sis!




He went down the tunnel slide all by himself!

No outing is complete without a little pouting and sass
A little elbow to the neck never hurt anyone
