~*Can't Believe I've Been Gone So Long*~

I honestly can't believe that it's been so long since I last posted. Time sure flies!!! Thank you all for continuing to stop by for visits and for your wonderful comments...I really appreciate all of you!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I thought I'd share some pictures from my daughter Emily's 16th birthday party. She wanted to go with a pink and green theme since that's her favorite colors. I found small boxes at Wal-mart (Wedding section). My friend, Beth, and her daughter came over and spent an afternoon spiffying up these little favors. We filled them with pink and green M & M's. When Emily was little she called them Emmy M's.

We held her party at Foggy Mountain Lodge

Her caked was baked by Jim from Dainty Pastry Shoppe

Here's the birthday girl!

Emily dancing with her daddy!

Watch out world...here she comes! She just got her permit several weeks ago so, we've been spending our afternoons driving.
Thank you all for stopping by...I really appreciate!

Tuesday Toot MeMe

Earlier this week I decided to go back to my all positive posts and no negative. Pretty much that'll be easy but after looking at Toot MeMe and reading all those other entries I think looking at even the smallest things for accomplishments can improve one's image or thoughts. We all know that we attract what we put out there so there is no way I want to attract those awful things. So I need to

Ruby Tuesday: The Red Sleeper

I'm new to Ruby Tuesday, I've only posted one other time. Here's my Ruby Red post. Oh look at the two of them. As you can see, it was still a bit nippy in the air so Little A was constantly in sleepers but this was such a great shot of him and his sister, BabyGirl running around and playing soccer. Remember those sleepers? Oh the days when we were younger and could get away with wearing them all

Smucker's Has New Toppings

It's an ice cream type of day here in Missouri. Why? Oh ummm, because the weather is 92-101 and we deserve a cooling off. So what better way to cool down? Have an ice cream party. Thankfully Smucker's recently sent us a few of their delicious products. We got the Smucker’s® Apple Cinnamon, Smucker’s Special Recipe® Dark Chocolate, and Smucker’s Magic Shell® Vanilla Cupcake and I went and got

Random Picture Weekend

It is the close of the weekend with it being 10:21pm on Father's Day and I thought I'd do a bit of catching up on all the things we've been doing. We had a bit of fun in the pool over the last few days, then we tried moving the pool to a different location because it kept becoming lower and not by splashing.First lesson- a pool stinks very badly when it is moved after sitting in one location for

He's Home & I Drove to the Airport

Okay ya'll are probably wondering about that title right? Well for those that know me know I do NOT drive. Okay, I got my license at age 26 and we lived on a base, speed limit is what 25mph on a base? We then moved to Camp Lejeune, NC (jacksonville) and I barely ever left the base, so once again only around 25mph and sometimes 45 when off-base. Like I said, that was rare.We moved out to Misery,

Wordless Wednesday: My Office

I moved my office from upstairs to downstairs and have lined my wall in the basements with nothing but books and plants. What do you think? Now I can see everything the kids are doing and when they are playing outside. Happy WW!

He Stuck a Bead Up his Nose

Yes, you read that right. Little A decided to do some exploring to see what all he could fit up his nose. All I know is I was sitting at the computer finishing up my last paper when he came walking in the room repeating, "Nonio, Nonio" it's what he calls his brother. I told him just say yeah, he insisted on his nose but we couldn't figure out what he wanted. He just kept saying "Nose" and

Farmer's Market and Garage Sales

It was a day of thrifty shopping, well I guess I can't totally say that. Ya'll knew how much I wanted to go back to the Farmer's Market and due to my burn and the rain I never did go this past Wednesday, so the kids and I went today instead. It seemed like the same people there with a few different types of fruits and veggies. But here's what I bought: Farmer's Market:- Apple Butter from

Someone Tried Breaking In....

Just a little update on our life at the moment, while everything seems fine and hokey pokey all is not as it seems. Sure the family life is great, but its those things that go bump in the night that are scaring me now. It seems that on Wednesday Night someone tried to break into the house, I won't lie I did hear something that night at the front door but due to the storm I just ignored it and

The Anniversary Dinner

Well I haven't told ya'll this but the hubby had to go off to Arkansas for two weeks due to military training, which also meant he'd be missing our 13 year anniversary (June 7th). Hey, being military you get use to these types of things, to be honest the military has taken him for more anniversaries than I can count. But he'd be doing more of a work out then I would be on this particular

Wordless Wednesday: The Storm

It got really dark right after this and it was only noon. Yesterday we had a bunch of storms come through the Kansas City area and with some hail, winds, lightening and tons of thunder. We did not have to deal with any sirens thankfully, but I did have one baby hiding under the covers. Happy WW!

Ruby Tuesday: Farmer's Market

I learned about Ruby Tuesday through another blog I read called AskewtoYou (Hi Michelle), apparently every Tuesday you post a picture of something red. This should be fun especially since we have a ton of little red fruit at our house this week.I told ya'll we stopped at the Farmer's Market section of the Carnival because someone (a little girl that I won't name) couldn't pass up her strawberries

Table Gating Party Winner

Wow there were so many inventive ways to convince those kids to eat those veggies. Course for me it would be to get the hubby to eat them. Some of these I've never tried myself and will have to do, others I have and loved. But I know ya'll don't want to hear what I've tried doing to get the kids to eat veggies. Right? Hmm? Oh you do, well I've tried hiding it in the food by mixing it in, getting
