Field Trippin'

I love going on field trips with the kiddos. Ivy's field trip was to our very own Wild Florida. She was so excited that her dad got to be the captain for her class. 

Jackson's field trip was to Epcot. I love hitting Disney with this kid one-on-one. He only let me hold his had a couple of times (for about 3 seconds each). It's hard watching him get big! 

Something Exciting....

So I have alluded to this in previous posts but now that it is finished I decided to make a post with all the pictures I have taken from start to finish... our POOL!!!

Can't really say how long it took... We decided that we were going to do this in June. They didn't actually start on the pool until August. The hurricane pushed things back a few weeks. And even now (end of December) we still have some stains on our plaster they need to get rid of and they need to put a final coat of paint on our deck. But it's swimmable. And even though the weather here has been cool (the water in the pool is freezing!) it hasn't stopped the kids from swimming! So we are enjoying it already. In fact, there are kids in the pool right now. :) 

Next up, finish the landscaping, lay pavers around the fire pit and put some sod in!

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.
