The Woods

Every year we go to the mountains with my side of the family and it's always a load of fun. So much to do for the kids and so much relaxing to be done with the parents.

This year acorn picking was a huge hit!!! With the kids and the squirrels. The pile was so big the squirrels thought they hit the jack pot.

The Stoner Cousins

Another "Pass Time" activity was making parachutes and paper airplane to toss off the balcony railing while us adults got plummeted with the air crafts.

It was cool enough weather to be warmed by the fire.

And roasted wieners were on the menu

Can't forget this pumpkin!!

As you can tell we are out growing this cabin. Bre and Trey shared the top bunk which they didn't complain about but it won't be long before they are kicking each other in the face.

The Grandparents and Grandchildren

Just us!

School Days

We'll the time has come! I now have two of....all of....my children in school now. Granted Bre is only in preschool but it's still time away from mommy two days a week.

Trey is now in 1st grade and loving it as much as kindergarten.

Since Bre doesn't go to preschool all day she is desperately lonely for someone to play with. So she literally follows me around ALL DAY and wants to help with everything. Which is great, but so boring in my eyes.
We've done a lot of baking, cooking and canning since school started.
But clean up is her favorite. She begs to wash the dishes and it usually means a sloppy, wet cleanup for me afterwards. But how do you say "no" to a request to do dishes???
