Little Dude

Why does Grandma B do this?!?!

It did not seem that long ago that B was looking devotedly at his daddy...

Dude with an Attitude!!

now he's not so little anymore....said with a tear in his mommy's eye!!

Happy Grandparents' Day

Mr. B had been practicing what to say and when I started to record......

I guess he was DONE telling you but we hope you still enjoyed the day!!

September 11th

Today I'm especially grateful for the men and women that continue to protect our Country...near or far from home. We will never forget the events or those that lost their lives that tragic day.

 ALWAYS REMEMBER!!!

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL?!?!?

The first game of the Iowa State football season started great!! I love afternoon games...but I wish it wasn't so HOT. We decided not to do the RV this year and I think this is going to be a whole lot easier for us....others in our group may not think that. B Man had a fun time running up and down the hill and found plenty to keep himself occupied until the real action began. We are really lucky to sit by some fabulous people that help corral B when he needs to get down and "stretch" his legs. 

I'm ready TO GO!!

Good thing I brought my "tractors".

Bags, anyone?!?!

Our annual first game family photo

Waiting for those doors to open

Here comes Coach Rhoads and the ISU Cyclones

This only lasted about twenty minutes

HOORAY...WE WON!!

It's gratifying to have the first WIN of the year!!

( Hopefully this weekend's game against IOWA ends the same way!! )

Mother's Day

Casey surprised me with brunch at Mimi's. Cafe....not the place to take an energetic little boy who was not interested in eating OR sitting in our booth. It was so nice of Casey to try and handle him BUT I have to admit I've never eaten so fast in my life so we could get out of there before his next outburst!! Next we went to get some plants for our house and wandered around looking at all the home improvement gadgets. When we got home my guys continued to spoil me by giving me an external hard drive to put all our photos on... so hopefully no more lost memories from a computer crash!! We finished the day with ICE CREAM!!!

I'm truly blessed to have that charming dude calling me Mommy!!

Father Like Son

I have the best looking lawn service in town!!

Sorry for the lack of blogging...

 AS LIFE HAPPENED!!!

Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I will get updated with what we have been up to since...I don't know....APRIL!! Some posts will have more pictures than others because I've enjoyed everyday life with my son and not my camera. The events may not necessarily be in any sort of order either BUT the memories will still be noted here in the blogosphere for future reference!!
