Birthday!

We celebrated Peyton's 3rd birthday Saturday. He once again, would not eat his birthday cake! lol....wouldn't even blow out his candles! He was really into opening his presents though and had a fun time. Boy was he spoiled! I have hidden away a few toys and am going to pull them out slowly over the next couple months.

He got some fun new trucks and golf clubs and this is what he chooses to play with in the backyard! lol....yep, that is a good ole plastic bag that blew into the yard! Gotta love it!

Of course, I gotta share a picture of Maddy too! One of her favorite spots is on the boppy pillow on her tummy. She is so dang cute when she pulls her hands under her chin that I had to get some pictures.

Well, I have TONS of pictures from Easter. I'll post them soon! I sure hope to get more scrappy time this week than I did last and then I'll have some scrappy pictures to share!

Busy busy busy!

We have a busy weekend ahead of us! I need to boil eggs and get them cooled so we can die them tonight. Well, Chris dies them, Peyton puts stickers on them and I take pictures!

Tomorrow we are going to an Easter egg hunt that a local church is putting on, then Peytons birthday party and then on to Corey's (hubby's little brother). Both Chris's little brothers are going to be in town. Peyton has been talking about them all week. Yep, that will be one jam packed day of fun!

Just a cute picture I got of Peyton & Chris last night. Peyton really enjoys the rough housing lately.

I got this picture of Miss Madeline this morning. Her little tongue was just going to town!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter!

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!

I love you guys!

Scrap 4 Life is having a Blog Challenge. You can check it out here: http://lifeitswhywescrap.blogspot.com/. The first layout was for the BOM Challenge, a layout about siblings. Apparently I need a new photo of Josh and me as this was our most recent one and was taken three years ago!

This layout was for the April Color Challenge.

Here is a picture of Maddy and Chris that I got yesterday and really like.

Maya Road

I'm a huge fan of blogs and watch well over 50 of them! Thank goodness for google reader! I follow the Maya Road blog as I LOVE me some Maya Road. On their blog they came up with the CUTEST thingamabobber (I have no clue what they are called). Check it out :I need to take a class on blogs. I don't know how to do the word links (ya know where if you click on Jan it takes you to her blog), am horrible with inserting pictures and links. Well, this adorable little monkey moves to the right and left. Check it out to the left on my side bar!

Out of the mouth of babes...

To set the scene, Peyton was playing and all of a sudden came running over to me and asked if he could give baby sister hugs and kisses. Which he did then came to me and told me he loved me and gave me hugs and kisses.

Mommy: Peyton, you are so sweet. Can I eat you up?

Peyton: No I not a chicken yet.

Isn't that funny? I'm loving our little conversations and always look forward to what he's going to say next.

This would be what happens when I tell Peyton its time to change his diaper or clothes. He books it to his bedroom laughing the whole way and sits on his big stuffed turtle with the biggest grin on.

My mom found a box of Josh's and my clothes when we were babies. This is a sleeper that mom remembers putting Josh in. I LOVE it and wish I could find more. Its velvety and warm and I love the hood as it stays on where hats don't! I can't wait to put Maddy in some of the dresses that I had pictures taken in. Of course the reason I want pictures is I think it would make a fun scrapbook layout!

Wow!

Where did time go? I can't believe I haven't blogged since Tuesday! We've had a pretty good weekend. Chris took Peyton fishing at Haystack over the weekend. They had a blast. I watched Chris and Peyton leave in the old truck and Peyton just waved and waved and blew me kisses. He had the biggest grin on his face. They didn't catch anything, but it was a gorgeous day and they had a lot of fun anyway. I went out to find them but ended up driving back to town after I drove around for half an hour with no luck. Of course I forgot to send a camera with Chris but he got a couple shots on his cell phone he is going to make sure I get. Here is a picture though of the views from the campspot I want when we go out. This is really sad, especially since my Grandpa lives right close by (you can see the lake from his house) but I have never been to that campground! Yep, Saturday was the first time I had been on that side of the lake!

Off in the distance of this picture, across the lake is my Grandpas house that is well over 100 years old. My Grandpa grew up there and so did my mom!

Here is a bookmark I have been wanting to make for some time. This one was really quick and simple. I'm hoping to create a couple more soon that are a little more fun and fancy!
