The whole week was filled with laughter, shopping, gaming, swimming and of course, eating.
The ambush for the return of Steph and Papa from their trip to Wisconsin (they brought us some nice Venison too. Yum!)
Carson turned 3! And guess what cake he requested? A car wash cake. No kidding. Jana is such a good mom and obliged this request. I would have suggested my child come up with an easier cake to make! And look how creative she was! That's coconut on the giant marshmallows and fruit roll-up flaps complete with a rice krispie treat car and cookie wheels.
The kids playing at the piano. They also enjoyed swimming and visiting the Colorado Winder Farms (haha, actually the Spencer's home) to pick up the daily carton of chicken eggs, visit the cat Cookie and tried not to break any limbs on their zip line. Forget about chuck-e-cheese, when you have such a sweet backyard!
The guys decided to make a trip to the local thrift store and buy some ugly outfits to surprise us all.

I made some rosemary place settings, waaay too much cornbread stuffing (which we ate for the next week),and Tyler made 5 gourmet pumpkin (custard) pies. Then of course, we had the good stuff.
Tyler and I being matchy matchy. Oh, and as a side note...I've noticed people eying my belly, friends even, and I know what they're thinking. And you're wrong! It's just fat!

Ha! I love the thrift store chic! Seriously awesome. If I could make that one of my family traditions I would but my husband would NEVER wear pink (coward!).
ReplyDeleteBahahaha! I like the sweaters and your, ". . . it's just fat" comment. I had some lady ask me when my baby was due a little while back. Hunter was five-months-old at the time and I think I said something like, "five months ago." It took her minute. Then she was embarrassed. I wasn't.
