Fall is in the Air!

It's October and we're feeling the fall weather.
Beck had a quick trip the pumpkin patch with his cousins.
He conquered the maze to find the tractor, which he couldn't get enough of!
He was more excited to push it, rather than ride it.

Beck, just like his mom, cannot pass up
getting his picture taken in one of these things!
Good thing he has such fun cousins that join in with him!
Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cool, crisp air,
Leaves changing color and falling to the ground,
and it is the start of the holiday season.
I am looking forward to spending time with
all our family and close friends.

L.A.Z.Y.

(pic. has nothing to do with the post)

Last weekend I was out for a jog and I came across
a house in the neighborhood next to mine,
it had been toilet papered.
It was fun to see, I can't remember the last time
I had seen a house that had been hit!
As I kept on jogging, in the same neighborhood
I came across another house, toilet papered!
HAHAHA, good times.
But, as I kept running I started to think about the
houses that had been hit and I have to say,
I am a little disappointed in the younger generations.
No toilet paper in the trees, House tops were bare,
a few rolls draped over the bushes and wrapped around the mailbox. That's it.
BOOO. The kids did a crappy job.
As I crossed back into my neighborhood, I saw one more house
toilet papered!
Equally disappointed!
L.A.Z.Y.
The kids these days are lazy, they can't even put a little effort into
toilet papering a house right.
COME ON KIDS, TAKE SOME PRIDE IN YOUR WORK!

Last bit of sun

I am determined not to take for granted the nice weather we are still having.
Rumor has it, it will all change next week... BOOOO!
We have been enjoying the sun all week long.
Tonight we took Beck out on a walk
and actually let him WALK!
He loved it!
When we got home the sun was just starting to go down
and Beck played with the hose and got
all wet!
I loved it!
It was quiet outside, perfect weather, Beck was excited,
After awhile he was soaking wet, tired, and ready for bed.
I am LOVING the weather right now.

30 day Challenge

I am not sure where I saw this challenge
but as soon as I saw it
I knew it would be something I would like to try.

30 days without eating out!
Repeat... 30 DAYS without eating out!

I cannot remember the last time I went over a week
without eating out.

We do great during the week
but once the weekend comes, it is party time at our house!
No cooking and no doing dishes!

Well... Not for the next 30 days.
I have my menu for the WHOLE week and I will be cooking!

Any other takers on the challenge?

We're starting a tradition!

It wasn't planned but it's working!
We're starting a NEW tradition.
For the last couple of years Beck and I have made our
way to Boise to visit my Bro and his Family
while Aaron mans the Funnel Cake booth at the Fair.
This year we ate at this great place, Flatbread Pizza.
Beck and his cousins found this little dog out front... I had to snap a few pics!
Some pics of us waiting to eat.
The Best Sister-In-Law in the world!
The little kids were able to make their own pizza
Than watch while they cooked it!
Pretty darn cool.
And the Pizza is TASTY!
After pizza, we headed down the road to Powell's. This candy store is unreal.
Honestly, I wanted everything.
My pictures do not do this store justice.

I ended up walking away with a sack full of salt water taffy
and some energy beans (for my running)!
I Love this area of Boise, it is so pretty,
and really with a candy store like Powell's
you can't go wrong.
I Also LOVE spending time with my
Brother and his AWESOME Family.
We're looking forward to our next trip!!

GAME DAY BABY!!!!

Yesterday was full of emotions.
We had some pre-game jitters, waiting for the game to start.
We had a first quarter full of highs!!!
A second half full of LOWS, tears, cursing, and praying!
and a last minute full of screaming with excitement
a finally touchdown with only 1 minute left, to give us the WIN.
A true Bronco VICTORY, the only way the Bronco's know how to do it,
Keeping everyone on their toes!
Get the credit cards ready, we are on our way to the
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
