Went to put on shoes and this is what I found. I may buy him his own vaccuum after all! He said with a tilt of the head and his dimpled little cheek “But I didn’t dump them on the floor like normal!” So very true So very true!

So this past weekend was my niece’s birthday. She turned two and it was alot of fun with family. Here is a picture of my sister and sister-in-law with our kiddos. My sister is on the right and her daughter is the little girl. My nephew is the little boy on the left and my sister-in-law. The kiddos wouldn’t stop chowing. So we all just smiled for the camera. It was turtle cake. Pretty cool.
Then the opening gifts is always cute. My niece runs up opens one and then takes off again and plays. She wouldn’t stop moving and couldn’t concentrate on one piece of “loot”
This is my nephew with my son’s Bobby Hat on and that is a vaccuum pipe from a “clean like mommy” set for a pretend vaccuum. my son was in love with the whole set. My BIL was putting it together and it was amusing to watch because he would grab one piece and stick it together and another piece would wander away in a little kids hands and then migrate back and my BIL would stick it together a little more. Finally when done they all went to clean the kitchen floor. My kiddo asked me for the toy as well. Giving me all the reasons why he needed it. I commented that if he wanted to clean he could use any number of “actual cleaning” things we have like the vaccuum.. etc…etc.. I got a roll of the eyes. haha. I guess pretend is more fun.
Here is my nephew also look into the squirt gun like it had a scope on it. haha.

This is my sister’s Turtle cake. It had sneakers on it. Soooooo cute. She always makes the cakes for my son. This cake was super fun!

This is my Aunt Gillian and Uncle Mark.

Well that’s it for Birthday Party Pics. I tried to get pics of my niece, but she wouldn’t stand still for a moment, but she hads lots to keep up with. lots and lots of fun!

A little tape goes a long way… or at least til the roll runs out.

So I am good for a little game… “What ya doing?” I know this tire is flat. (I have such an uncanny ability to get flat tires that if I could wrap it up with my ability to shrink clothes. I am sure I could rule the world or at least jump start the economy trend with all the clothes and tire replacements.. anyways)… My son says very matter of fact.. like duh! didn’t you see me walk out here with the tape… ” I am fixing your tire. It just needs air and you’re good to go” So I told him “well smile so I can take a picture of you fixing my tire.” and tried not to giggle. So here he is with tape and fixing the tire…
Here is the tire with all the holes he could find repaired. Yes, I am out of tape to wrap my nieces bday present. I hope he doesn’t notice me snage two pieces to tape the ends. And we are waiting on Dad to get home and run the air compressor. All I can say is… Maybe I’ll buy my little one some Duct tape for Christmas. MacGyver here we come! Love my life!

So much more than Just a dog (Oct 2009 Sketch challenge)
New Layout using CD00605
This is my latest layout using CD00605 – Family Frame. This was one of the files available in the last QMC but you still have time to join this QMC which can be found HERE.
This is a photo of my In-Laws, my DH and my son and daughter on a recent visit to our home. This was my last chance for a photo shoot with my daughter as she is now working as an Au Pair in Virginia in the USA. Long way from Australia! My In-Laws just happened to be visiting at the same time, so we had a house full for a few days, it was great!
This file was perfect for this layout! The file includes the rectangle frame that I have used here and the Family title, but as an added bonus, also includes an oval frame as well! The frame around my photo and the “Family” have had styles applied to them.

Thanks for looking,
cheers, caz

And continuing on with our pictures. We went to the pumpkin patch and it was windy. My hubby was gonna take my picture so I am trying to get my sunglasses up on my hair to stop the wind blowing it and also I like to see eyes in pictures. Pictures with a bunch of sunglases never appeal to me. SOOOO …

then when I go them up my stinker kid decided he was gonna block me anyways. so it ended up with him on the floor of the trailer and me tickling him. other mothers there were looking at me like I was crazy and disturbing the peace, but I didn’t care. It was fun!
These field was just full of sunflowers and justbeautiful. I love sunflowers.

In the search for the perfect pumpkin…
Found it..
Yep here it is!!!
Then we went to the orchard and had some fudge, but first we twisted a jump rope which my son uses to rope the dog, his Dad, me.. probably not as the guy intended, but lots of fun.

We ended the day with apple pie and ice cream for the guys and fudge for me. Great great day and weekend. Have a wonderful day!

Corn Maze and Corn Bath? Pool?
So continuing on our adventures from the weekend. Here’s my guys on the tractor on the way to the pumpkin patch, but first we went to the corn maze. My son has his hat tweaked her a little and pushed down because it was windy!

So here we are at the start of the corn maze. We have our list of helpful hints and are on our way. My son is excited because we pretty much followed his lead. He led us left and right and right and left. And answered questions at these little stops.
And then we finally made it to the exit. It was lots of fun and our kiddo was so excited to get there.
And then after that we went to wait for the pumpkin patch tractor. My son remembered this big stock tank with dried corn kernels in it and again this year didn’t want to leave the “corn pool”. Greg and I just hung out and chatted while he played in the bin. there were no kids and then a bunch of kids and finally we got my kiddo to get out. But he just loves it. and even brought home some corn with him. On the tractor ride I shook his hips and corn fell out of the bottom of his pants. And today when doing laundry I was throwing it away as well. Corn + stock tank + kid = just good silly fun!
