This is the latest and greatest at our house. A card table with a sheet over it. Tyler's new hide out. I need to get sewing and make a real fort like the one my mom made for me when I was a kid. Tyler and Colten inside their "hide out."
This is Tyler at school listening to a book. I thought the head phones were so cute on their little heads.

Jack loves to play outside. He will go to the back door and say side side, letting you know he wants out. I took these pictures after we came in from playing outside. You can see, Jack hates to come inside.


I don't know how Tyler fit in this little box. Leave it to Tyler to squeeze himself into something smaller then he is.

Take Me Out To The Ball Game

Mike took us to the Diamondback's game on Friday, September 26th. This was Tyler's first professional baseball game. He loved it. His favorite part of the game was the fireworks that exploded after each a homerun. Tyler also enjoyed when the mascot threw t-shirts into the stands. Although, he was a little disappointed that he didn't get one. We ate peanuts and cheered for the home team. Our seats were rockstar seats, just seven rows above the visitor's dugout. I've never been that close to a professional game. The Diamondbacks played the Rockies, winning 6-4. It was a good night for all.


Thanks to Brad Holm (Mike's new boss) for the great tickets.

Playing at the park

Here is another new recipe we tried and liked. It is a little spicy for the little ones. You could leave out the cayenne. The sauce was great!

Scrapbook Junkie

Ok, I'm becoming a computer junkie; first blogging, and now digital scrapbooking. I have a healthy stack of paper scrapbooks. For the longest time I have wanted to scrapbook digitally. A few days ago Tyler asked to look at our paper scrapbooks. He really enjoys looking at all the photographs in the scrapbooks and Jack seems to enjoy them too. Recently, while we were looking through the scrapbooks, I decided to finally figure out how to digital scrapbook. I thought it would be easier and less messy with two small boys. I was right about the mess, but digital scrapbooking hasn't proved much easier than paper scrapbooking. Thanks to a great instructor (Christianne) and free downloads, I am going to be glued to the computer for a while. Sooooo much fun for me.

I used Adobe Photoshop Elements and Shabby Princess downloads.
