Our night away...

So for Brian's birthday I got him a night at the hotel where Kirk works... It is a beautiful place and we had a great time. This is the patio and our room was the bottom left with the door open...

and this was our view off the edge of the balcony of the patio...

Cutie Pie Cate...

We went to Dad's b-day party last week and Cate was so funny... Her faces are hilarious and Brian says that just makes him love her... He was really funny about her and it amazes me that he thinks she is cool... Of course, the boys can't get enough of her...

Halloween Pumpkins...

The kids did a really great job this year so I told them I would post their pictures of the pumpkins... They are ghosts...

OK... catch up time...

So it has been awhile since I was on because life gets crazy... I am going to post some pictures that have been stuck in my camera... Here is the lady who hit my jeep... that I still don't have back. They had to order a new hood and paint it and it was supposed to be done today but I'm doubting it...

Grampa's Coming

The boys are so excited they can barely stand it! He comes in on Brian's birthday and all the excitement is building... He won't be here for long and the boys have been working extra hard so that they can play the whole time he is here! Brandon just did an extra hour of schoolwork before bed hoping to get a few days off with Grampa.

Of course, we have EARLY games while he is here. Our games are at 8 and 9 so we will be up early but will have the rest of the day free... It should be a nice visit!

Now we just need to finish up the to-do list before he gets here. We got the door hung on the patio, got the painting done in the boys rooms, made a trip to the dump and got all the laundry and work caught up... So far so good!

Gotta luv the Jeep...

So after last week I thought I would get some reprieve from my bad week... Apparently I was wrong. Tonight when I was driving home a lady creamed my car. I was alone and I am fine, just a little sore (well, sore enough I may swing by a dr. tomorrow tho). The adjuster is coming out tomorrow to let me know how bad it is... But on the bright side... Her car looks much worse than mine. I think I will go take a picture of it tomorrow because she shouldn't have messed with me... Anyway, here's the jeep...

It is dark so it is worse than it looks. There are even places on the driver side that will have to be fixed from the impact to the passenger side. We have pulled some of the parts back into place to the best of our ability as well. She was coming out of the alley a few blocks from my house and never stopped or even looked. There is an island there and nowhere for me to go and I looked over and knew she was gonna hit me. She was in a Dodge Dakota pickup truck that is in much worse shape...

I told Brian how much I appreciated the fact that I don't drive a little car because at the speed she was going she would have run right over me...

Girlz Rule... Most of the time...

So I lost... It actually wasn't even close. I lost by 40 points. We played poker last night and I lost at that too so after the week I had I thought my luck was changing but apparently not. However, I did find my keys and my phone is working again!

We had a good weekend but Brandon's team lost their first game in almost two years! Brian was furious with the majority of the team. This is our rival team and we were fighting for first place and we lost this time. We play them again the last game of the season so there's still hope! Brandon had a good game though and his dad was proud of him.

Hunter's team won their game and he did great. That puts them well in first place so it looks like they will be going to the Tournament of Champions. He was so excited and his face actually lit up once they won. We were really proud of him.

So off to start another busy week... it has to be better than last week....
