Veteran's Day at Disney

According to a little photo reminder on my computer we spent last Veteran's Day at Disney. I think it's a good tradition!!

Toothless

She's officially toothless! She lost her first top front tooth about 4 months ago... the new one has yet to grow in, in fact, it's trying to grow in but the gum has completely healed below it so it's having a hard time breaking through. Anyhow, the other front top tooth finally bit the dust and we already have a visual of the new tooth coming in, so I'm sure this won't last long but I'm going to enjoy it while I can!!

A Bunch of Hunters - Viewer Discretion Advised.

You know... it's my husband's thing. He's a hunter. Not much I can do about it so I go with it. And the kids... well they love it too! So far this season Jackson has shot 2 deer. He shot a doe with his crossbow and a buck with a muzzleloader.... all on his own! He is an excellent shot. Ivy's buck never came in range for her to get with her bow (she actually is a great shot with the bow also) but together her and Daniel shot it with a rifle. 

Ground blind selfies!!

A Bunch of Random Photos

Here is just a bunch of extra photos I thought I'd throw in!

These boys are for hire!! And they accept payment in ice cream sandwiches!

 You know this is a good time!! 

 Almost everyday is a beautiful Florida sunrise. I love it here!

 Something fun going on over at Auntie Kara's!!

 Just your usual cuzzie fest!

 My church babies!

 Tatum's baptism... the girls sang a beautiful musical number. 

 Birfffday party!! Happy 8th birthday Charlotte!!

 I don't have many pictures of this but someone managed to send me one at one point... this guy right here was a workhorse after the hurricanes. All over Florida and Osceola County doing crazy chainsaw tree work. He's a real goodie!!

Soccer season came and went!! It was a great year for both the kids. I really love the Upward Soccer league... a nice, easy extracurricular activity for them both. Made the first half of the school year a little less hectic. Between this, school, piano and scouts - we are plenty busy!

 I may not have taken a single picture of them playing their game but at least I got the end of the year party at the park and face painting!! 

 4-wheeling cats. 

 Play dates and pizza!

 Jackson's attempt at a bonfire!! Love it!!

Benny Boo Bear

I have literally been blessed with the sweetest baby a mama could ask for. Our Boo Bear. He is the best buddy. Good little companion bubs for me. Except he thinks he doesn't need naps anymore. So I'll put him to bed and he'll climb right out of his crib and then pass out somewhere else in the house (because he obviously does still need his nap - silly baby) Makes for some nice snuggles, though. 

He's got a thing with towels. If he's missing and quiet in the house, he's probably in the bathroom chewing on our towel, weird, I know. 

 Golf cart rides around the neighborhood is this kids FAVORITE! I can get him to do anything with the promise of a golf cart ride afterwards. (he call it a ya-ya-yide)

 Pool contruction is very very interesting!

 He loves helping in the kitchen! His favorite thing to  help with is cracking eggs of course!

 He's also excellent at helping with the laundry. 

 Now that the weather is cooling off, we are enjoying the park more often. Another fan favorite... always to be enjoyed with cousins.  

 Reading books is always better in his tent!

 Soccer season. This means hanging with mom on the sidelines while bubba and sissy practice. Most of the time he's pretty good... only occasionally will he throw a fit because he wants on the field. Interesting fact - this kid kicks with his left foot. 

 Riding in the Jeep with dad to check the game cameras is ALWAYS a good time!

 Just another day, patiently waiting for the turtle to come out. 

 We hit the library every Wednesday for story time and it's a real treat when his favorite cousin, Ila (or Lila) comes along!

 There you have it! The life of my 2 year old!!
