I found my camera!!!!!

That's right people...I'm back...I found my long lost little camera and I cannot wait to get back to blogging (silly I know...but admit it...you all missed me too!!!)

Dinner in the Clubhouse

It was been amazingly beautiful lately outside so me and the kiddies have been eating almost every meal out there. Tonight they wanted to dine in the 'clubhouse' and of course I was fine with that, as long as they eat I don't care where it happens! Even Payton climbed up there and joined in the dining activities....

Sweet, little Miranda

Miss Miranda is so independent, she bathes herself, dresses herself, brushes her own teeth, gets her own drinks and snack's, she can pretty much do it all already...Well tonight she decided that she was going to make a bed on Andy's floor to watch a movie and she decided she need 3, yes3 pillows.


Unfortunately Andy only has 3 pillows, which is more than enough to share, but since Sister needed them all she set him up with a blanket/fish combo...hhhmmmm...Andy was less than pleased. Little people have the funniest thought processes!

Bowling Night!!!!!

Since we got the 'kids' the Wii our family has been addicted to bowling...so sice we are all SOOO good at bowling on the Wii we thought we would take it to the alley...(We are NOT as good as we thought :):)

Jess, Kristy and the boys joined us...and the kids had a great time on their own lane with bumpers..they rocked it out!


The little boys hung out in their strollers like good little boys should :) Kristy took about 50 pics of them and this was the best of the lot...kids never seem to look were they are supposed to!

Russ and his 'professional' bowl...Jess still kicked his butt!

Girl and her 'professional' bowl...hehe

Andy thought she did such a great job he had to run out to her and lay a BIG one on her!

She thought she did a good job too!

Buddies :):)

The Grape Bandit

So all summer I have been waiting for my grapes to be the perfect size...I checked on them last week and they were perfect, juicy, sweet...yumminess. We had guests over so I figured I would harvest all my grapes after they left. We, naturally I was busy all week and didn't get to them till today and this is what I found on our entire vine...all my grapes were eaten off...hmmmmm. My kids know better than to do it...Raccoons? I guess I will never really know!

Another Crucit project

I am so excited about my Cricut and trying to find a million things to do with it (without going out and buying a bunch of new stuff to make) So I covered our color can (which was a formula can at one time)...cuteness!

Lovin' the Deals this WEEK!

I tell everyone Walgreen's is the best when it comes to snagging great random deals! I totally scored 6 jars of Ragu, 4 Jello. 2 Best Foods Mayo, 4 boxes of Pop Tarts, hair dye (for all my GREYS!!!!), shampoo, and 2 boxes of Rice Crispies for.....$7.92...I had lots and LOTS of coupons and I got a ton of Register Rewards that I used in 2 transactions....


The Walgreen's deals this week were so good I went back and got more dye (because it was .99 and more shampoo and a conditioner (which I can't find...weird) But anyhow this was $2.28 out of pocket but I got $8 back...so yes, I made $$$$$$

And again at Walgreen's this week (it was HOT, I'm telling ya) I got all this:4 Crest toothpastes, 2 boxes of cereal, 2 boxes of Pop Tars, and 4 (we ate one in the car:)) Rice Krispies all for.....$10.88 but I got $14 back....oh yes I MADE MORE $$$$ just by planning my shopping and stocking up...so now I don't have to buy toothpaste for awhile...:)

Yes, I know this may LOOK crazy but Andy has a birthday party and we will be giving fruit snacks in the goodie bags (and rice Krispin's:)) OK the deal was buy $30 get $15 back, the cereal was free, I had an Albertson's coupon for cereal for .99 the a manufacture coupon for $1 off...so all of these goodies were $15...:)
