Getting Festive...Halloween 2019

We jam packed our calendars full of festive fun leading up to Halloween this year include a trip to the pumpkin patch for a class trip for Kinley, the annual hay ride at the club, and trick or treating around the neighborhood.  Here are some of my favorite pictures from all of our fun.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

This year we decided to load up into two different cars and head up to our property to cut down a Christmas tree.  Last year Tice went up on his own so this year was our first cutting one down as a family.  There was almost two feet of snow up there already so we are glad we broke with tradition and headed up a weekend earlier than normal.  The kids loved playing in the snow and it was so beautiful to see the property covered in snow. 

It was just a bit cold up there!

Fit like a glove!  Poor Tice had the drive home with the tree like that for over 2 hours!

Recent Happenings

Holy cow it has been forever since I last posted!  March to be exact and a whole bunch as happened since then!   For starters we sold our beloved "happy house" as the kids named it.  It was with mixed emotions but Tice and I both decided we needed more room so on the market it went.  We ended up selling in about 2 weeks for cash!  With no other house lined up in that short timeline so we headed to our friends house to stay there while they were in Australia.  After three weeks there we headed to my mother in law's to stay for about 4 weeks.  Once June hit we decided we needed something a little more permenent so we rented a townhome for the last two months.  Finally as luck would have it we found our dream home and moved in about two weeks ago!  It has been whirlwind but totally worth it in the end.  Tice kept telling me to be patient and that it would pay off and he was right!  

Almost all of the rooms are unpacked but my to do list is still a mile long.  In the last week I have begun the LONG task of painting the house and boy will it take a while with over 5000 square feet and some very tall ceilings.  No matter how long it takes though it will be so fun to see the house change for the better!

Can't wait to share even more updates shortly with you all and thanks for coming back to this little corner of mine on the internet!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Recent Happenings...Camping on our Property

We headed up to our property for our annual friend's trip in July and it was a blast!  We had over 30 people there one of the nights and it was so neat to share this special place with those close to us!  It rained a bunch but we still had a blast and can't wait to head back again next year!

Jeeping with some very tired out kiddos!

Recent Happenings...Kinley's 3rd Birthday Party

For Kinley's birthday this year we decided to go with the most girly, summery theme I could think up, Flamingos!  It turned out so perfect and she absolutely loved everything about it!

My pain in the butt homemade cookies...thankfully they turned out so cute!

We broke out the waterslide again and the kids went bananas

My happy birthday girl!

All flamingo'ed out in our attire!

Patiently waiting for cake!

My homemade cake...tasted better than it looked.  Kinley requested a strawberry cake with blue icing
