All ready to go to the store...

Are you ready for some football???

Easton and Jon (heck Makenlee too) are so excited to watch the Packers this season. Mommy is too I guess it gives me a little of 3 hours to do fun things...Can't complain.

The guys watching the opener against the Bears.

Easton was happy he got to stay up a little late and hang out w/ Daddy.

It was cute after maybe 1/2 hour he said,"Daddy I am getting tired. I need to get into bed to go night night."

Poo mishap

So we stopped to get my free b-day Starbucks and when I got Makenlee out of her seat she pooed all over herself. NICE!! So then I put a new dipe on and discovered we had no shirts in her diaper bag. Luckily Target is in the parking lot so we strutted the parking lot and store sans a shirt...But at least she had a drink..Gotta keep a girl hydrated, ya know!

Strutting to Target

then Mommy found a dress on clearance for $1.97. How awesome is that.....
She is holding my drink by the way.
I don't give my 2 year old coffee....Just in case you thought I would....

Fun times on my Birthday

On my actual b-day we went miniature golfing and then dinner at Red Robin...

The kids loved mini golfing

30th Birthday Party

2 Weeks ago I turned 30.

Jon and some friends had a party for me....

We had a great time.

My yummy cake and flowers my parents sent me via UPS...I still can't get over the fact you can send flowers in a box..So cool!!

The hubby and I. I got all glamed up.

Thanks for the fun....

TN Valley Fair

A couple weeks ago we hit the fair here. We had never been to a TN fair before.

What an experience. Thankfully it is once a year.

Jon has a love affair w/ funnel cakes and this was like an apple pie.

Rather yummy I have to say.

Spaz

Struttin it

It is not the fair w/o fried oreos

They had funnel cakes on display. Most of the time they are fake. Well, as I went to take a look they looked totally real. So I touched it to find out. They were real alright....

Driving a John Deere

Easton loved the tractors

We were all ready for some TN fair fun. Fun it was....

Funny Picture

Is there a subliminal message here?

Saw this at the fair.

Fun Times W/ Makenlee

This girl provides us lots of laughs and such fun times. She has a firecracker personality and so joyful. She is quite creative in her outfits too...

She loves her bathing suits so she decided to wear it over her shirt.

Where is her mother??

I have decided her fashion woes are not a battle I am going to contend with. There are bigger hills to die on bathing suits is not one of them....

Great ensemble, choice of color and pattern design.

Who knew you needed wings to potty.

After she went pee pee she flew off....

30 is here

Today is my 30th birthday. I can't believe I am 30. CRAZY! It does not feel that old just weird.

Anyway I was thinking about all I have done the last 10 years.

Who knew by 20 I would move out of Sacramento to Costa Mesa, CA and start living on my own. By 21 I had a studio apartment in Huntington Beach and I lived by myself until I married Jon so maybe a year and a half or so. At 21 I met Jon. By 22 I was a married girl. Then we moved up to the San Fernando Valley where I interned and commuted to school to finish up my degree. By 23 I graduated college with my B.S. degree and we moved back to the OC (YEAH). At 24 I started working in the real world with autistic and special needs kids at various schools then got pregnant with Easton and become a Mom when I was 25. I then stayed home and raised the boy. At 26 got pregnant with Makenlee and turned 27 and we moved to TN and became a mini-van Mom. Got SVT while pregnant w/ her and nearly died on Christmas of 2006 b/c my heart rate was 300+ beats per minute. She was born a few months later healthy and strong. That is why I say she is a miracle. I am thankful God protected her and I. God healed me 5 weeks after she was born while on the surgery table. At 28 we went on our first "real" vacation to the beach. Oh, that was awesome. At 29 I started working part-time at children's hospital and now I turn 30.

Who knows what is ahead for me...But looking forward to finding out and walking this next decade. I am so thankful for God and for Jon, Easton and Makenlee. They have taught me so much and brought me so much joy.

Grandpa and Grammie came to visit

We went to the zoo.

We went to a railroad museum

A couple Saturdays ago we took the kids to play at the park and we had a picnic dinner.

Road Trip to GA Part 2

We took a road trip to GA to check some things out. It was quite fun and we enjoyed some much needed family time. We all were in one room together w/ one bed so how could we not enjoy each other's company..HA!

The kids and I hit Trader Joe's and a fun courtyard fountain area while Jon met about a job opp.

It was very pretty around TJ's....
