In the spirit of thanksgiving I wanted to give a shout to my dad and tell him how incredibly grateful we are for him and his many talents! He is such a generous man and has provided us with the most beautiful furniture. We can't thank you enough Dad!
Our dresser. We haven't had a dresser since we have been married and I must say its AMAZING having it, especially since it is absolutely gorgeous.
Triston's bed changed to the full.
My dad hand carved the flowers - so precious.
Bridget's beautiful crib!
Thanks a million
A few funny things
Bridget really got into her Halloween character as a lion...she has started growling. It is priceless! She does it all the time now and it cracks me up everytime.
Funny story about Mr. T:
T: Mom, I hate this song.
M: Whoa bud...we do NOT say "hate". It is not a nice word. We say things like, "dislike, I don't really like that, it's not my favorite" but we don't say hate.
Silence (Triston looking pensive)
T: Do you HATE it when I say "hate" mom?
One more story:
M: Triston you can't eat anymore of the cookie dough ok? Make a good choice please.
T: Ok mom, look away for a minute while I do something and when you look back I will make a good choice.
What a sneaky little rascal! :)
Halloween Festivies Prior to Halloween
This week has been crazy fun - full of Halloween party after Halloween party! This year Triston has really gotten into the spirit of Halloween so we carved pumpkins, made a monster cake (it was SO excellent but I don't have any pictures!), made hot dog mummies, and we are making spider cinnamon rolls tomorrow - so much fun. We have just stretched our Halloween celebration to the max, we want to get full use of our costumes. ;) Here are some pics of our Pre-Halloween fun.
Ok I had to post a few of Bridget out of her costume - love that smile
Triston really wanted to be Woody this year (he LOVES Toy Story right now) his costume was not quite finished here but you get the idea!
Our little Bridget is a lion
Party at the Science Spectrum
Making "snow" - something we are not yet missing!
Our second round of Hot Dog Mummies
Party at TEGA!
This place was made for our T Man - running, jumping, swinging while dressed like Woody?!! He couldn't ask for anything better!
Totally captured the real Boozer (that is Triston's nickname of Bridge)
Such a little lady
I finished it!
Since Triston has been growing like a WEED, we decided it was time to switch his bed from the toddler bed to the full size bed. So my mom and I decided to take up quilting! I made Triston's quilt and my mom is working on Bridget's. Unfortunately, I don't have a sewing machine but my mom let me use hers, so now that I am done she can start sewing Bridgie's. I started the quilt about a month ago and just finished it tonight I can't wait to get it on Triston's bed tomorrow!!! PS - I am totally addicted to quilting now, it is so excellent.
