Weekend pics....



I know, I just blogged yesterday and everyone is stroking out... but I got the pictures from this weekend uploaded and I had to share. On Saturday, we went to Sarah's birthday party. She is Shaunery and David's youngest daughter. It was a great party. The kids played hard, the adults got to visit(including David who was home for the week from Washington), and the cake was excellent! We were almost the last to leave, and the kids didn't want to go then...




On Sunday, we stayed home. Big and Little Otis worked in the yard, and Payton and I watched the race, well sort of. After the yardwork was done, Otis stayed outside for the kids to play. I'm not sure who's idea the water was, but soon there was a huge mud puddle and both boys were running through it, sitting in it, and throwing mud out of it. What a hoot! I ran and snapped pictures until someone had the idea(I'm not sure who that was either) to throw mud at mommy. I made a quick exit and got clothes and towel ready... Payton's lips were blue and he was shivering, but we still had to drag him in. He does love it outside. Anyway, here are the pics...

Where has April gone?




I can't believe it is the 21st of April.... This has been a busy month again, but we have enjoyed some down time at home and that has been nice. I went to the NASCAR race here the motorspedway. What a blast. The race was a little boring, but the tailgating was all worth it. We were sitting at the pit road commitment line, so I thought the seats were great. Any action that happened, was in front of us. I had never been to a race, so for me, it was exciting reguardless of the action on the track. The day before, I took the boys to see the Cheerios car here in town. We snapped a few pictures and they met the back-up driver.

Otis also went to Kindergarden round-up and registered for school next fall. He was excited, I was weepy. I can't believe he is ready for school. The teacher that interviewed him is sure that he will do well. I'm glad we have been sending him to pre-school, I think that has helped him develop the skills he will need for the classroom. She took him to see a "real" room and we snapped a picture.
Everything else is great! Otis and I celebrated another anniversary. Six happy years and counting. We went to eat to celebrate while mom watched the boys. We are busy getting ready for Kelli's wedding and shower. They are preparing to move and start officially start their lives. I think it's wonderful. I have some fun pictures from this weekend and will post them hopefully tomorrow.

For my crafty friends, I have finished 4 out of 5 cards for the swap, and I have done the 4 x 6 mini album for the challenge online. My page swap supplies are together and I am getting ready to get started on it. How's it going for you?
