WOW! What a weekend!!









So we had a crazy weekend, lots of fun! On Saturday we started off our day with Cody's 4th Birthday Party, Happy Birthday Buddy!! I was taking pics with Lisa's camera and forgot to get one of Cody with my camera but I have a cute one to share of Wyatt, Maddy and Bailey playing on a raft. They had such a great time! Thanks for the fun Cody!

Then we went to pick up Gabby and Nicky, the cousins! Last year I helped Gabby with her 10 year project and told Nick that if he had to do it I would help him to. Well you guessed it it was his turn. Basically the project is to show off your 10 years of life. They have to do things like a time line of their lives and World events, 10 favorite things, 10 adj., Baby pic, Hero pic, and some other fun stuff. Here's the trick nothing can be handwritten. Thankfully I borrowed the Cricut and the Disney Font Cartridge from Holly and Lisa and we were off! It turned out great! We had a lot of computer research and lots of printing. That brings me to my next...got a new printer a HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-one and it is AWESOME!!! I can't believe the pictures it prints!! So here is Nick with his project.


While I had the whole crew, Uncle Shawn/Daddy decided to make Smores, INSIDE the house. I guess it's a good thing we have a gas stove! They loved it. So of course I had to get a pic of that, duh! Gabby loves smores!


And last but not least... we had a major event happen in our house this weekend. My son decided he wanted to give a hair cut to himself. Yep you read right. Neither one of my kids have ever cut anyone's hair or their own hair. (OK Maddy cut out a rubber band in Lidia's hair cuz it was stuck, but she was trying to help) This was a complete shock! He was helping Nick cut out some things for his project and pretty quick he says... "Mom my hair is falling out" I quickly turned around and said "what are you talking about?" Just then I see the scissors in his hands a little smirk on his face and hair falling off his head. I totally flipped out! I was so mad!! PICTURE DAY IS TOMORROW!!! I said couldn't you have waited til after that?? So once the shock wore off I laughed my butt off!! Needless to say we went to Great Clips to see if they could do something, not really he cut it all the way to the scalp...cuz "mommy it feels like a rats tail". So for his Kindergarten pic he will have a little buzz in front oh and a fat lip. No I didn't give it to him!!! He and Nick were jumping on the trampoline and he hit Nick's shoulder with his mouth and split his lip. Gotta say this will make for a great Scrap Layout! Sometimes you just have to LAUGH!! Told ya crazy weekend! Have a great Monday.

Hee Hee Hee, I love it when they cut their hair. Fortunatly mine do not cut their own, they cut others, well meaning her sister. Kelsey decided that Shelby needed a hair cut when she was about 1 and cut all her cute baby hair off. I was not laughing, I cried, only because it was the same color as Kelsey's lions hair and I couldn't find the "human" hair to keep. fun times

You will look back on this & laugh. My Mom had just given birth to #5 when my brother #4)had decided to give himself a hair cut @ the age of 2. It was like he openend the scissors as wide as they could go & went for the middle of his head. It was bad. Now we can all laugh about it. My boys have yet to do this. Knocking on wood that it doesn't happen.
