Mostly a picture post



Yeah, so my boys decided they needed to wear some hair accessories, too. These were my first attempt at making hairbows.






These were my second attempt after watching the how-to videos. Not too shabby even though I say it myself...:)




This one is my favorite. Its shiny.

This was a pretty yummy carrot cake I made for Father's Day. Yeah, the chocolate icing didn't so much need to be on it. It was pretty decoration until it all started sliding down the sides....hahahaha!

These are all the family pics we took in Kansas. They were all taken in the rv park where we were staying. I'm going to do a post on all the rv parks we stayed in on our last little jaunt in case anyone is interested. Anyway, these are in place of professional pics. Gonna have to get some developed.
















Look what Sam made so the boys could get on the top bunk more easily...niiiiiice. Didn't he do a fantastic job?!

Home again, home again, jiggedy jig

Yeah, so we are back in Killeen again. We got called back last week, arrived on Thursday and just now have gotten our internet hooked up. Yay! We've had a very good reunion with our church family here. Anyway, that's a quick update for now.

A smorgasbord of earring pics just for Neeersa!

The intent here is not to show detail per se, but instead to show variety and length difference so that my long-time friend can indeed believe her eyes! Hahahahaha! A lady can grow in areas never before expected! Hope you enjoy, Nessa. :p

A bumboo in a Bumbo

We got a bumbo for Ailey Grace so that she can sit up and look around instead of just being on the floor any time we aren't holding her. She's starting to like it and she really sits well in it. We've had it for a few weeks, but she's just now getting to where she will tolerate it for a bit. Here are some pics:






Oh, and just so you know, the boys really enjoy sitting in it too.....

That's a Momma Diaper!

Yeah, so Sam and I joke around with one another when either of our diaper babies has a shooey and who's gonna change it. When Zekey has one of his major foul diapers and Sam happens to be present at that time, I say, "That's a Daddy Diaper!" (A dirty look from Sam usually follows this remark;) Anyway, I just asked Zekey if he went poopoo and Braden looked up at me and stated with a smile, "That's a Momma Diaper." Aw, man! Gotta go change a poopy...

Freddy's Frozen Custard vs. Steak and Shake

Okay, I know we might be behind the times and all, but we just discovered a steak burger. In my defense, I've seen Steak and Shakes many a time in the past, but because I didn't know they were steakBURGERS, I just wasn't interested. I'm not really a steak person per se, you see. So anyway, we were in Manhattan, KS going to Wally world and there was a Freddy's Frozen Custard across the street and so we decided to try it out. Oh my giddy aunt! Sooooo yummy!. Yeah, I have a new favorite burger joint. Aside from EZ's in San Antonio, this one is pretty great. I love the burgers. I prefer thin patties and they are thin and are very flavorful. I also like their fries. They are shoestring fries and I even like the little containers the fries come in - a cup. Oh, and the frozen custard...oh, yeah...mmmmmmmmmmm!

Now it just so happens that we went to a Steak and Shake the next week to see if it compared. They have the same kind of fries, though not nearly seasoned as well. The burgers were similar, but lacking and the shakes were good, but not near what Freddy's produces. The one thing Steak and Shake has over Freddy's are the little mini burgers. Braden loved them. I like that one of their kids meal has two mini burgers with fries. One for each boy. That's pretty neat. Maybe I can put in a request to Freddy's?:)

Here's the link to Freddy's Frozen Custard so you can see if there is one near you.

The Spam Museum

We did go to the Spam Museum and wound up having a great time. The boys had a fun time right along Spam Fan Sam. It was fun for me, too and I have to admit that I did get a t-shirt. Ailey Grace is the only one who didn't and that's because she might have fit into it for all of a few months and that's it. Anyway, here is our picture montage:







This is their wall of spam. (The cans are empty;)
