New Years Eve 2010

Well it has been a while since i have posted on here, but i have been following others who do such a good job and it encourages me to continue....

New years eve... i have some of my favorite memories on new years eve, from when i was a kid and spending the night with my parents friends the Benners and the Lapps... to when i took fun road trips to the beach, Bush Kill Falls... and Baltimore...
many things have changed since then.. mostly i really despise being cold and being outside for new years is no longer something i wish to do.. also i have two lovely children
that i want to make this holiday special for.
I had my good times and now it is theirs... took a trip to the dollar store to get supplies, horns, streamers, small fire works = good times.i don't think i have been this excited about a new years eve in a long time! well since the first and last year Husband and i went away for New years :)
here is to a great night for the kiddo's filled with family time and great memories! 2010 has been awesome...ish.... but i am excited for 2011

question

I am very frustrated with adding pictures to my blog, they never want to move where i want them and i spend like an hours trying to get it set up... i am just bad at this or is this common?

simple perfections

i decided to atempt going to the beach by myself with my boys...









i was a little hesitant because this was also Riley's first trip to the beach, and i was not sure how he would like it. it turned out to be a great day just Momma and her men i had a great day splashing and playing together

Orgnization?

I think my husbands definition of organized is slightly different than mine...

welcome to our garage... one point of frustration i have with this moving and new house thing

i need to admit i am NOT a neat freak but this garage frustrates me i can never find anything and i never know where to put things. gardening things, toys,car tools, car parts, wood tools, old clothing, school books, candles, boxes, trash, parts of our old bathroom, parts of our old house, oh yeah and my car ...uggg! i need help :)

is it summer yet?

why does it seem that whenever i finish up all of my dishes i feel like it is time to start making a new mess?

today was no exception with this dreary weather Connor and i decided to mess up the kitchen baking some cup cakes

Riley and Connor then thought they should take all their toys out in the toy room...

mother's day suprise

my Husband let me be alone today for about an hour and when i came back downstairs this is what i found....



... Love

I can take you for a ride on my big green tractor

Connor and i mowed our yard today! wile we were mowing Connor was singing the "lyrics" to Jason Aldean's big green tractor song..."going for a ride on a big green tractor"..."we go fast we go slower"...

we also went to a flower store and i got more peppers for my Garden since i had some bunnies eat my poor little ones that i just planted... i also planted some marigoalds to hopefully stop the bunnies for getting to them again :)




i also got some herbs to use for cooking... we will see if they make me a better cook or not :)
