CAn you say Blues Clues!!!!

well i got an itch today to paint the playroom. We have a room under the stairs that is designated to toys only. It is the one room i do not care about. the kids can play and leave a mess and i do not care. I simply shut the door and do not have to see it. The first time i painted this room i did not have kids yet, i was pregnant and did not know the sex of the baby yet. So i painted it with a house and grass and flowers!!! Then i found out i had was going to have a boy. Still never changed it. Had another boy and contemplated changing it, since it was a little girly. So today was the day. I headed to Home Depot bright and early , hoping to have it all done before Roy got home from work tonight. Thankfully he does not get off work till 9 pm. I asked Cassi for some suggestions. I told her i wanted to paint stripes in boy colors. She suggested green. I thought to myself, I never thought about green. Good idea!! so we got all the supplies and away we went, Ryland and I that is. We did primer.... ok now ready for the first coat of the lighter green. WOW thats bright!!! The darker green will tone it down , right? Well i finally finished at about 5 pm. My mother-n-law walks in and her only words were WOW!!! I like it!! ( i think) well i am puling tape off and finishing up when i hear her say," Ryland your playroom looks like the guys shirt from Blues Clues!!" i stopped in my tracks and started laughing Hysterically.... Mary came in and asked what i was laughing about.. All i could say, "at least Ryland likes Blues Clues!!!" so i am finally finished and over the fact of what it resembles, just can't wait for Roy to see it. he has no idea i did it!!!!

The Zoo

For rylands 3rd birthday we went to the zoo. he had such a great time. he loved every animal he saw and wanted to touch them all. his favorite part was chasing all the birds. one big one came up to him while he was eating, lets just say he did bot want to chase that one! for dinner we took him and grandma to outback for their birthdays.( grandmas(roys mom) birthday was the day before rylands).

Happy Birthday Ryland

Yesterday was Rylands birthday and we were so busy i did not have time to post. Well i hope you had a great day!!!! happy birthday bubba!!!

Every year we have our Annual Family Halloween Party. Everyone gets dressed up, we eat yummy food, play games and then all the kids get to go trick or treating. The kids have such a blast playing games. They also all get awards for dressing up. They think they are pretty cool getting awards. Any ways here are some fun pics of the kids.

Talon actually did really good in the stroller.. the only pic i got is when roy stopped pushing the stroller he got mad and wanted to keep going.
Ryland by the end of the night. Pieces of his costume were coming off one by one!!!
All the kids ready to go trick or treating


Last night my family came over and we took all the kids trick or treating. We only went around the block because the kids already had enough candy from our Halloween party Monday night.The kids had tons of fun. Although Ryland did not want to dress up nor wear his cowboy boots. Although he would not take them from Monday to Thursday, but of course the day that he needs to wear them he wants nothing to do with them. oh well we still had fun.....
