Game Time

We went to a local Manhattan bar to watch the first half of the game.

Funky, Funk Bus

We are huge Kansas State fans. We went to Manhattan on September 11th for a couple days. We got to ride on the Funk Bus. The game that Saturday was out of town but we drove to the stadium and had a little fun. Al and I really want to try to make it back for a home game so we can really experience the Funk Bus for tailgating.








Thanks Ronna and Galen for the ride and everything! We love you guys!

Whiskey, Margarita, and Tequila Rose

You thought this post was about alcohol, right? WRONG! Our friends, Ronna and Galen, have 3 miniature donkeys. Their names are Whiskey, Margarita and Tequila Rose. They are really cute for being jack-asses.

Pumpkin Patch

We went to a pumpkin patch on Sunday with our friends, Nichole, Storm, BJ and Liana. It had a very small hay bale maze, a bunch of pumpkins, and a small animal farm. Lily loved playing with the little chicks. I bought a caramel apple before we left for an afternoon treat. It was pretty tasty. I LOVE FALL!

Trying something new and a party

The girls had their first roller-skating party!

Lily, thinking about roller-skating. She's wearing a shirt of Al's when he was a boy. KISS...wish I had a better picture from the front.

Lauryn was a good cheer leader.

The birthday girl, Katie. She rocked the skating rink. The girl is good...

Landree. Oh my goodness. This is all for her. She has a pair of Barbie roller skates and a cheap pair of Heeley's. So we'll just say this was her official first time roller skating. I had tears in my eyes because of the pride I have for her. She was determined. I have never seen her so determined to get better at something. She circled and circled the rink. Mostly within an arms length of the side carpeted wall. She had rug burns on her arms that are still healing. She fell on her bum so many times I'm sure there were bruises. She did not want to stop to eat pizza or cake.

So towards the end she let go of the wall a little. Way to go Lu!

a FIRST birthday party!

We had our friends and family over last Saturday for Lauryn's birthday party. At 4 o'clock our guests arrived. We had sandwiches, salads, fruit and veggie platters, and of course cake. The older kids enjoyed a pinata, jumping on the trampoline, and playing ping pong. The adults enjoyed "catching up" and holding Nichole's cute twin baby girls. I had a great time and I hope our guests did as well. Our girls were exhausted by the nights end. Landree even fell asleep on the couch at 8:30! Lauryn was a great party girl...

ONE

WOW, my baby is ONE!! After school and work we took the girls to Chuck-e-Cheese for dinner and a little cake. They all had a lot of fun.

Lauryn at one...
~loves listening to All the Single Ladies- and dances to it way better than the baby on Youtube (we still have yet to actually record her doing it- we could have been totally famous!)
~loves playing outside. Gets very upset if she is left inside.
~Claps all the time. We started singing "Happy Birthday" and Lauryn started clapping, so cute!
~shakes head no-no. She will do something she knows she's not supposed to and right before she starts shaking her head no-no. Smart girl!
~Says, Ma-Ma, Da-Da, Nigh-Nigh...
~Getting attached to Al and I
~Plays really well with toys and likes to play with the riding zebra, babies, blocks, and anything and everything Landree and Lily are playing with.
~Has 7 teeth but can only really see the bottom middle 2 when she smiles. They look like little white Chiclets's.
~Loves to eat. Favorite foods are fruit (mostly watermelon, strawberries and bananas), macaroni and cheese, eggs, and most breads (pancakes, waffles).

I can't believe she's one! The year has flown by. I want to keep her little forever!
