Holiday Popcorn

I may or may not of made this mess. Do you think I look guilty??? It was Dad's holiday tin of popcorn, mom was able to save some for him. I'm sure I'm still on the nice list though!

It crunches under my feet


mmmm tastey


oops.

Pop's Work Christmas Party

Saturday mom and I headed to El Dorado for Pop's work Christmas party. Grace, Lauren, Jordy and I all went to the party with Nana and Pop's with a little help from Aunt Julie and Mom. We had a great time! I love the blow up snowman and Santa. I still do not like the real Santa though. He was there and I wasn't happy! All of us got really great gifts from Santa, we are some lucky kids!

After the party we went back to the farm and the girls put on their fairy princess costumes that they got and I chased them around the house.

Naughty or Nice? Coal or Toys???


Jordy, Santa, and the girls


Whoa, Santa is huge!

Waiting for Santa to bring gifts...I think Lauren saw him!

My first meeting with Santa

Honestly my first meeting with Santa did not go well. I don't mind being the same room with that man, but I don't want to have to sit on his lap. I don't care if I get coal for Christmas, I'm not telling him what I want!

Nana, Pops, Grace, Lauren, Aunt Jacque, and Uncle Cale, mom and I all went to Breakfast with Santa at Grace's school. Out of us kids, Grace was the only one willing talk to Santa. She must be brave. I had a really fun weekend playing with the girls at Lauren's house! I practiced my tackling take down skills on Lauren for about 15 minutes on Sunday morning. She was a good sport! On Sunday I went and stayed with the Armbruster gang in Paola while mom went to see the Broadway musical Wicked.

On our way home mom and I got in a little wreck in Dad's truck. We crossed a very slick bridge and after some fishtailing, sliding, and one spin, we flew backwards into a ditch and through a barb-wire fence. Well that's at least what mom says because I slept through it all! We are both fine! I also got to sit in a Sheriff's car, which was my first experience with the law. Mom says it better be my last.

So despite banging up Dad's truck and scarring mom, I had a GREAT weekend with family!

I'll take coal! Get me out of here!


Singing Jingle Bells w/ Mrs. Clause - I like her much more than her scary husband


Look at Grace posing with her arms around Lauren and I - those 2 are growing up too fast! The pretty lady in pink is McKenna. She is Grace's cousin. She didn't like Santa either.


So happy!!!

Thanksgiving Warm-up

This weekend I went to tailgate before the K-State Mizzou game. I ended up falling asleep in Shelly's party bus. The rest of the day I played with mom and nana, and then we had pizza with my buddy Cole and his parents. But the best part of the whole weekend was the Thanksgiving Warm-up dinner at Aunt Johnna and Uncle Lance's house!!! Everything was soooo good. I had turkey, mashed potatoes, some green beans, and my favorite, a roll. I can't wait to eat all that good stuff again next week!

1st K-State Basketball Game

On Sunday we went to a Men's exhibition game against Pitt State. I enjoyed watching the game and sat in mom and dad's lap very quietly for the majority of the game. I eventually fell asleep. When we got home Dad gave me some ice cream - which I LOVED!!! We have ice cream pics and bball pics to come soon! I had a great K-State weekend!

So Yummy!


I have it easy, sitting on the couch eating ice cream...Mom told me NOT to get used to it!

Finally!! A K-State football victory over the Jayhawks! Mom and I went to tailgate and then

Happy Halloween!

On Saturday Grandma, Mom, Dad and I went to the 62nd Annual Council Grove Halloween parade. There were lots of people there and lots of fun costumes! After the parade we went to see some of my friends and then to hand out candy at our house.
I had a great weekend!!!


At the parade!

Mom and I

The Luce's and I, even their dogs had costumes!

Best costume - The Rubik's cube

KSU Homecoming/Brookville Chicken

This weekend I went to the K-State game with Mom and Dad. We met Nana, Pops, and Uncle Cale at the game. I had fun running around at the tailgates! On Sunday we went to Abilene to eat at the Brookville Hotel. I had some yummy chicken and a whole biscuit that I stole off Daddy's plate. I was exhausted and slept the whole way home.

Now that it's fall I've discovered how much I like being outside. I like to cry and throw fits when mom makes me go inside!

I'm a mess in public


I love leaves/dirt/sticks - the usual boy stuff!

Little Pumpkins Party 2009

Last night our Flint Hills Family group had a Little Pumpkins Party! Mommy was in charge because she is "Mom of the month". We all wore our costumes, played games, decorated pumpkins, had snacks, and had story time! Of course there are none of mom in her Rock Star costume because Mommy's never seem to be in pictures...just Daddys??.....

Sunday Jordy came over and we had a fiesta! Complete with a pumpkin pinata and hot dog roast. Afterwards we all went to Walter's Pumpkin Patch and had a great time! I was exhausted and took a 3 hour nap after we left.

Nana held me during the Wagon ride. I was sitting in Grace's car but she politely asked if I would get out - haha.

Not Much

Not much went on at our house last weekend, or this week for that matter. Here are some pictures of me recently.

I love my swiffer! I also love the broom....


Found my Cheerios!


Cheese! I have 12 teeth!!

Sunday - Finally Home!

We finally made it back to El Dorado early afternoon and Jordy, Uncle Jack and Aunt Julie were there waiting! I had fun playing with Jordy and Grace! It felt good to be out of the car.

Ian and Kali's Wedding on Oklahoma

I had a long weekend of traveling! Nana, Pops, Uncle Cale, Aunt Jacque, Grace, and our family all drove almost 5 hours to a wedding in Oklahoma. Ian is a cousin of Dad's. We all had a great time! I danced, napped, and bothered Grace!
Nana joined Grace & I on the dance floor


I tagged along with Grace

Napped with Pops for a while. He and Uncle Cale were keeping up on the K-State game score - and Uncle Cale also gave me bunny ears.
