Chuck E. Cheese and another Field Trip..






Ok..


So we took the boys a couple of weeks ago to Chuck E. Cheese's ..I have not been there in years, And can I just say how sad it is now..that you have to have a hand stamp, and yours has to match your kids, just so some nut job won't try and leave with your kid...Yikes...We do not live in the world I grew up in....


Anyway...


Keaton had a lot of fun..even had his pic with the big Cheese himself...Braedon was just a little overwhelmed with all the lights sounds and kids running everywhere..but it was fun...


Also Keaton had his 2nd Field Trip ...it was to Fry's Grocery Store..they toured the store, and got to sample some of the food..and learn about how the store works...


there are a couple pics of his Field Trip, one of them is with his good friend Roxie...

[tag[1].jpg]

Ok..I have been tagged by Tammy..here it goes..

1. I don't like Fish...The thought of eating fish makes my skin crawl...I am happy to say, that I married a non fish person like myself...The smell alone makes me sick..

2. I love blues music...I don't think anyone knows that about me....I don't listen to it enough.

3. I am a soda addict...Seriously , when I say..I think their should be a 12 step program for it..:) it is hard for me not to drink it all day..I only let myself have one a day, maybe 2 on special occasions...like any day that ends in "Y" :)

4. I can't eat Luch until at least 12:00, for some reason my brain will not let me eat luch foods until after noon..which is hard when your making luch for your kids at 11:00 and y ou can't sit and eat with them, because you just can't make yourself do it..

5. I like old cars..like vintage cars...I would love to have an old Chevy or Ford to drive around in..like from the late 50's early 60's..

6. I like to sing to my children...I sing songs I make up all day long..my oldest does not think it is that cool anymore..but my toddler just laughs at me.

7. I am a bad scrapbooker...UGH...I can't make my self do it...I just don't know how to make it look right..then I get mad and then I give up...Maybe someday, I will master the art..

That was fun..Now I tag...Rachelle, Cylee, Meg, Savannah..Good luck girls...Yeah I only have 4 people to tag..I am kind of a loser...:)

Homemade Tortillas and Refried Beans...


So...I decided that I wanted to make my own homemade Tortillas and Refried Beans..


I was a little scared..My mom used to make them A lot..and all though, I don't think the Tortillas turned out quite as good as my mom's..I have to say not bad for my first time..I definately will have a very hard time eating canned refried beans ever again...They turned out great...Though Jeff thinks they needed more salt...he's a boy what does he know ..:)


anyway , here is a picture of my creation...


If the economy keeps going the way it is ....and inflation takes us over...I will be glad to say...I could live off my tortillas and beans for a long time...:)

I know Danyl will love motherhood..it is very rewarding...very hard, but very rewarding..


Welcome Brody...we are happy you are finally here...(especially your mama and Dada)..

Keaton's First Field Trip...




So..Keaton's preschool had their first field trip the other day..they all got to go to Chevy's Mexican food Restraunt. they got to tour the kitchen, see how they make tortillas etc, at the end they all got to have tacos.


The preschool teacher had all the kids make a shirt with all their handprints and names on it, she calls it their field trip t-shirt, they are to wear it at every field trip.


Keaton was so excited to wear it...until....well, when we put it on him that morning...the shirt was so big, it came down to his knees...he right away said..Oh no...I am not wearing this...I can't wear this...He was so mad that it was to big, he through the biggest fit, and almost did not go to his field trip....Of course when we got there, before they went in, they all stood in line and sang songs..can you tell by the look on Keaton's face he is not thrilled.....It is so funny...I had to take pics of him being a sour puss....


But once he got inside, and they gave him that hat..he was fine....


All in all, it was fun..and we will see what next months field trip brings...

Riding in the car....






It is moments like these that make me happy to be a mom....This was so funny...Keaton driving his little car, and Braedon sitting next to him...as you can tell by the look on his face, he is just praying that he stays in one piece...


I love my boys...
