Fall funtimes

Geez I suck at blogs.  But I have decided I NEED to get better.  One day Facebook will be no more and I have to make sure people get to see my cute kiddos!


So...not taken today BUT check out Veronica's Princess Leia hat.  She is so stinking cute.  

Today the boys had soccer games back to back at different YMCA's so I had to go to one and Eric went to another.  I almost got kicked out of the Y for inappropriate language.  APPARENTLY people don't like being told to shut their smart ass mouths.  Who knew?  Anyway...


My bubby.  Gosh I love this little boy.  Last weekend he had his first and hopefully ONLY seizure.  Febrile seizures suck.  Not dangerous, but now EVERY time he has a fever I am going to panic.  I think it took me close to a year after Aidan's to not freak out.  Let's just pray this was a one time thing and we will not be repeating it.  He is all better and back to his wild self.

This year we went to the Rural Hills Amazing Maize Maze.  It was a lot of fun.  Basically we walked around for an hour and 47 minutes lost and then found our way out!  Not quite sure how, but we did and we didn't kill each other.  These things typically make me and Eric fight, but we did great!  Yippee for us!   

Now...this first picture was taken by Aidan.    I don't know.  Don't ask.  He took about 7.  I thought I would include one since the Port-A-Johns seemed to mean so much to him. 


 The kiddos in front of the scarecrow.  We had to tell Nate it was a "nice" crow.  He can be such a chicken sometimes.
The boys like to hold V's head.  No idea why.  Sort of made for a cute picture.  
But not as cute as this one!!! V actually fell asleep in the carrier.  This is HUGE!  She hates being touched when she is sleeping.  She probably slept for close to an hour. 

 I got to choose the flag.  If we got lost you were suppose to hold it up super high and wave it.  That did not need to be done.  We just used the people stationed throughout the maze to help.
 They are so weird.  Aidan is SUCH a wacky little boy.
 BOOGEY OOGIE FEVER!
 Corn.  duh.

My men figuring out where we were.  
There were 12 mailboxes throughout the maze.  You had to find a mailbox.  In each mailbox was a piece of the map.  So the only way to get a complete map was to walk around like an idiot finding these things.
 See?

 Yes.  You saw it here.  This is my husband.  Sigh....
 WE MADE IT!! YIPPEE!  They did not want to talk into the microphone at the end.  Oh well.
 FUNNEL CAKE!!!
So...that was our day.  Hope you enjoyed it!

Woops!

I have started another blog, Not a Short Order, and I have been slacking here.  Well, not as bad as I normally do.  It has only been a few weeks since my last update!  I just looked through my pics and realized why it had been so long.  NOTHING has happened. 

Except V making a friend
Is Eric attacking Aidan here?  Yes and No.  Eric is attacking so we can see how he fights off an attacker.  It works surprisingly well!

Check out the air he had!
Ninja spying


I added a new line of products to the stuff I am making.  Sandwich wraps.  Aidan and Nate both had to have sandwiches for dinner so they could try them out.  Silly Boys.




We had an impromptu drum session.
Grandma visited.

We discovered 3-D chalk is NOT that cool.
Took super spy pictures through the blinds.


Painted rocks.
SMILED!
And ATE!

July! And In July!

Holy Moly.  I think this post catches me up!
For the fouth of July we went to WV.  Eric's family (mom and dad side) have their family reunions over the fourth every year.  So up to WV we went!

First we got ready by making cookies!

Then for the LONG trip up.  For some reason they decided to be geniuses when making the road and make it merge down to one lane.  Causing it to bottleneck and to be weird unknown backups.  So we stopped for a break on the side of the road and i took pictures while Eric "drove"
How does one track speed by plane?




Found on the side of the road.  I thought it was neat looking.
First stop...Cookout at Eric's Great Aunts.


The boys on the four wheeler.  Nate=LOVE, Aidan = HATE
Then we went home.  Next up...the third and swimming!  We also had sparklers at Eric's parents house.  I think of everything!
Neat bridge on the way to the cabin

Awesome old building

Me and Nate in Eric's parents pool.


The boys and Paw Paul

Sparklers!
The next day was the Fourth of July!!!

Hmm...wonder who this was?

Meeting cousin Lily.

Aidan likes it with Mark!

Poor Mark

The Dodson Girls + Boy

Dad and daughter

BEST PICTURE EVER!!!!!!!

The kiddos

US!

The thinker

My Nate.


While we were there Veronica fell in love with some toys.  The toys are now discontinued.  BUT I found Nightmare Before Christmas toys.  EVEN better.

Then I discovered Eric's inner Gangster.


And Veronica turned 7 months old.



But please if you come over remember one thing.  Do not feed the caged animals.
