Yippee!! Dinner Time

Peyton was very happy it was dinner time tonight!
She had this thrilled look on her face.
Our happy girl!

Apple Pickin'

Maddie had an apple picking day with her preschool. I had never been apple picking before. It was fun. The trees were low enough for the kids to pick. I only let Maddie pick ten, because I know we would not eat more then this before they would spoil. She would have filled 10 buckets if I would have let her. She loves to pick things, (especially flowers that she is not supposed to from the yard ;).) We shared an apple on the way to swim lessons. It was so sweet and yummy. Apples = Fall!

A Weekend of Fun

I had a very busy weekend! Friday I had Bunco with a group of girls. This is always fun. I get to go to Bunco once a month. We have a good time and laugh a lot. I even won this past weekend. This is a bonus. :)
On Saturday we went to the Zoo with some of my family and a friend Tracy. It was a beautiful day and perfect weather! We wanted to see the baby elephant, yet, the line was over an hour long. Soooo... we just enjoyed the rest of the zoo. It was membership appreciation day and also cultural day. They had different activities set up to learn about different cultures and animals from around the world. Maddie enjoyed collecting stamps of different animals from around the zoo in a little "passport". It was a good time.

An elephant ear is the best next thing to seeing the baby elephant.



On Sunday we spent the day celebrating my Niece Jordyn's 13th birthday with family. It was good to see everyone! She had an Elmo Cake. Never too old for Elmo. :)

Tunnel Fun

For Maddie's 1 year birthday Bry and I bought her a tunnel. This has been the best gift. Maddie still uses it to this day and now Peyton has joined in. It folds up compact and is easy to store. I think it was money well spent for the hours of fun we have gotten from it and will continue to get from it. Here are some pics of Peyton having fun!

This picture makes me laugh! Peyton stops at all of the "windows" to look out. She almost looks like she has a nylon over her head the way she smashes her face into the netting! :)

Yummy

When I got home from work the other day my Mom and Maddie were making banana bread. It always smells so good while baking and makes the house feel so warm. It was perfect for the Fall like weather that was happening outside. YUMMY!

One Down, Many More To Go

Well I made it through the first night of Boot Camp. It was tough! I am very sore but am going to go back for more on Wednesday. (I hope I can walk tomorrow). I know if I keep it up it will get easier with time. :)

Little Sleepy Head

Little Peyton was so tired tonight she fell asleep in her highchair.
Sweet dreams!
