OU/OSU Game







Jeff and I got to go to the OU/OSU football game Saturday night. We had so much fun. It was so worth standing in the freezing cold. Football is so much better in person than watching it on TV. Maybe next year I will get to go to more than one game.
Don't we make the cutest couple!

Dressing Nice for School

I have to share this picture and the story that goes along with it. Nathan decided one day that he and Lane needed to dress nice for school. Lane thought that was a great idea. The next week Lane wanted to dress in his nice clothes again. So I let him. He was soooooo funny. When he was dressed and ready for school he danced around the living room and told me he was a rock star in these clothes. When he arrived at school he strutted all the way to class. Several people told him he looked hansom including Ms. Rolland. When someone would tell him he was hansom he would say I know. It's funny now but I'm not sure how we will handle him when he is older.

Fall Day Motorcyle Ride


A few weekends ago, when the weather was still permitting, Jeff and I went for a two day motorcycle ride. We had so much fun. The boys stayed with grandparents and we drove and drove and drove. We put over 300 miles on my motorcycle. We drive all around the Illinois River and up Highway 10. The trees were beautiful. The weather was wonderful. The time spent together was priceless.

Halloween Skeletons

The boys decided to be skeletons this year for halloween. Nathan wanted to be one since September. When we went to find halloween costumes, Lane could not find one that he liked and Nathan conviced him it would be cool if they were dressed alike. I think it turned out pretty cute.


I had to post this picture of Nathan. It's one of the last with his front tooth. He has now lost both front teeth. I tell people he lost them so he could sing All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth. It took a couple of days to get used to the sight of him without teeth.

We took the boys to trunk or treat this year. There was one truck they could climb into. In this picture Nathan and Lane are waiting to climb in. They both look a little nervous.
After trunk or treat we took them to a neighborhood to trick or treat. This is the first year we have done that. They really enjoyed it quite a bit. Aren't they the most adorable skeletons you have ever seen.

Birthday Cakes

I made cakes for my niece and nephew's birthday party. Originally Mariah wanted a flower cake. Then she decided she wanted to share her party with her brother so we changed it to football and cheerleader. She loves being a cheerleader.

At the party we had cookies for the kids to decorate. They had a lot of fun. I'll have to remember this for Nathan and Lane's party when they roll around. Nathan decorated 5 cookies. He had to decorate one for me and one for his dad. He is always thinking of others.

Air and Space Museum

Nathan's class field trip was to the Air and Space Museum. Lane got to go along.

They got to climb into a plane and play around. Of course Lane climbed in with Nathan. Nathan enjoys his role as big brother. He makes sure Lane gets to do everything he does.

Baby Shower

Brittney and I decorated for Kendra's baby shower. She is due Nov. 11. I'm not sure if she will make it that long. Her belly is so cute. She is one of those women that don't show any sign of pregnancy except for the belly. They are having another girl. Aspen is so excited. Brittney made a very pretty diaper cake for the baby shower.
