Fall Pictures

















Last weekend, the boys and I took fall pictures at the Montessori School. They turned out so good!!! Landyn got really into the posing; Kordyn really didn't:) but at least I got a few good ones (and some that I can use for blackmail later in life:)

The weekend is finally here!

So glad it's finally the weekend. We did a little shopping tonight, love a good bargain at Kohl's! Finally found some new rugs for the kitchen floor-with the perfect combination of brown, creme and green! And, bought a baby present for a shower next week-really needing a baby fix!!! I know so many people who have had boys lately!!!Good thing my niece and new baby nephew will be here on Monday! And, Kord got some jeans-wasn't sure if he and Landyn were going to make it out of there alive but they did:) While Jason checked out, I took the "screamer" to the car-he was sad because he couldn't have the huge remote controlled truck!

Tomorrow: a photo shoot at school. I am helping 2 teachers with their babies and taking pics of Landyn,too. Made a deal with Kord that he wouldn't have to go tomorrow but he has to on Sunday morning really quick on the way to church.
Then, it's a Halloween party for one of Landyn's friends. So glad soccer got cancelled:) After all this excitement, I will start the cleaning of this cluttered house:)
Can't wait to see my family on Monday!

Fall Decorating

 Painted pumpkin from Taylor's Greenhouse in Hoxie, Ar
 Loved this painted pumpkin-reminds me of Landyn!
 Some of my favorite things: Lamp, cookbook, caramel candle and pumpkin plate
 Another favorite cookbook and Landyn's haunted house he made with Mammie and Emma (ignore all of the junk around it:)
 Chalkboard stand and tray-not sure what Landyn wrote on there tho
 This pumpkin lights up but Landyn doesn't like it very much. Trying to find something to hang on that black stand
Fall plate, candle, painted pumpkin and fall girl-a gift from a co-worker
My favorite: Harvest China. Love these plates! And the bargain I got on them at TJ Maxx!

And that is my fall decoration tour for the year! Didn't do much outside since it's been 90 degrees up until last week-just didn't feel like fall to me!

All About Me

Soccer



Landyn is enjoying soccer. He is not a very aggressive child to kicking the ball from another kid is not really his thing! He prefers to just watch and kick it if it happens to come close to him!

Football Season



Kordyn's team is 5 and 0 so far this year!! Yeah!!!!!!!

Play day at home



Last Saturday, it was a great day to play at home. After soccer, Landyn played with his K-Nex, made a tent, and watched movies. Kordyn read,  and played the Wii. Jason was busy getting ready for hunting season. I cleaned the house, did laundry, cooked, blogged and sorted clothes. Then, we watched the Hogs!
