What have I done...

Avery has always told me she would not allow her hair to be cut. I could get away with trims but she did NOT want to look like a boy. Out of blue, she has been asking to have her hair cut short like aunt Brittany's. She's been asking everyday for me to cut it and welp, since we are pinching pennies right now...that is exactly what I did....pulled out the ole scissors. When you see her, don't look carefully! Even make a new fun hair bow!

Annual Trip to the Christmas Tree Farm

Every year after Thanksgiving, we drive to Owasso to cut down a tree. We missed Mandy and Zac this year :( Align Center
Wes and I made it into this picture...Group shot in front of our tree. I love how the wind blew my hair perfectly!
Hayride back to the front where we enjoy free candy canes and hot apple cider!
Too bad we have no room for a Christmas tree in our house this year. I'm for sure making Wes put up lights instead!

Our Thanksgiving

I'm very thankful we have so many family members. All the cousins (that could make it) from my dad's side. Not pictured -M, H, N, M, L, S, M, A, C, J, and our little angel in heaven C.
So sad Henry doesn't have a cute shirt also! Turkey craft aunt Brittany brought!
I'm still so sore... Ready to go get my parents Christmas tree today!!

Random Pictures

Most Monday's we go to the library for story time. Yes, Zane is usually still in his jammies. This day they got to make a rainbow necklace.
Zane finished out a good soccer season! It was soooo nice not having to go to a game this past Saturday- I needed a break!Somehow the coach got confused and we missed our time for getting pictures done (happens more often than not and is so frustrating...). So we made our own picture day and of course my camera got Mr. Sticky finger's leftover snack on the lens. There will forever be a lovely fuzzy spot right over my baby :(
My neice spent the night a few weeks ago and I just came across this picture. Cracks me up!
I felt like trying something new with Avery's hair last night, so we did an upside down french braid.She loved it and wanted me to do it again this morning... I'm ready for Thanksgiving soon! Very thankful to be about to get out of this cluttered house :) Will be super thankful when the sunroom is done!

This is what's been going on...

My idea of having a little sunroom facelift (insullation, sheetrock, laminate floors) resulted in this...One wall had some termite damage which means we will be giving ORKIN some buisness in a couple of weeks :( The other wall had bad water damage and the wood was rotting so thats always fun. We now have to redo two walls and the lovely quote sexdupled (is that a word?).
In the meantime, we have all of the toys and junk in our living room...

Oh how I can't wait to get rid of this clutter. Dave Ramsey just might be a tad smart afterall.

Inside a photo shoot

After making 3 of these turkey shirts... I was so over Thanksgiving and ready to move on.
So I'm a little early, but I couldn't help myself. You may be wondering, how many ruffled jean skirts can a girl have? Or you could care less! Either way, I vow to never make Avery another one until she outgrows these!
This is what a photo shoot looks like. I will start by saying I am not a photographer nor do I know how to work my camera. That said, I tell A to start posing. The first one is always some weird sexy teenage looking pose in which I remind her she isn't Hannah Montana but someone trying to make Santa smile...and she becomes a reindeer!? Then I get...akward IBS looking pose...Then I get one that I think is it...But decide one more just in case...
and it becomes the winner!

Wes is back on ATRA and having been off of it for 2.5 months, he is back to bad headaches, nausea, and just feeling icky. Pray his body adjusts to it and he feels better quickly! He only has to be on it for 2 weeks, then gets another 2.5 month break.
