Contryman Christmas Party!

Do you see the resemblance?

If you know Sarah, than you know this is a scary picture!

Ahh...can you see the pure "mommy" exhaustion in our eyes? It's there!

Hey everybody!

Lunch...

Why is it that no matter what you take to the office for lunch, it's always the LAST thing you want to eat when it comes time for lunch? I have the best intentions of eating it at 7 a.m., but noon rolls around and I'm outta there! I'm going to the closest fast food place and not coming back for an hour. Is it that I can't stand to be in the office any longer so I leave, just to leave?! Lunch is not a lunch to me, unless I've exited the building. I've done the whole, bring the lunch, eat it in the car, at the park. Those days are always great during the summer, but during the winter sitting in my running car never sounds that appealing.

So, today I'm searching the web for interesting lunch ideas. I've either come across things I've never heard of or am not willing to try (hummas, pita) or things I've tried and gotten sick of very quickly (fruit, nuts, cheese and crackers). This is going to be my New Year's Resolution. To prepare my lunch every evening, bring it to work and ACTUALLY eat it! What an interesting thought!

If you're reading this, leave me your best office lunch recipe. I do have a fridge, microwave and even a stove. Yes, I have no excuse...

BTW, went to "Yes, Man" lastnight. Awesome movie. You really can't expect anything less from Jim Carey. It reminded me of "Liar, Liar". The crazy, kookiness, but completely different story line. It also has that girl from Zooey Deschanel, who is different, but deliteful!

I'm uploading pictures as soon as I find my camera, ha ha!!

A Regular Night

Oh, hello mom. I love your cooking!

I'm trying to swallow:)



Are you gonna leave so I can throw this on the floor???


Hmm...do you think she saw that??

Christmas Pictures

This is my attempt at Christmas pictures. I am boycotting Wal-mart!!
This one is great. I turned on the vaccuum to get the little one's attention. It sort of backfired.

Geesh! There was a lot of work behind the camera to get a smile out of the lil one!

The Best Christmas Ever!

This is Trevor's Christmas present. She's a 6 year old mare. Don't you dare tell!!
Her name is Blaze right now, but that won't last. Trevor told me if he ever got a horse, which he doesn't think he can have until he's 8, because I told him that...that he would name it Cupid or Vixen or Blizten:)

This is Trevor asleep. I just thought it was funny. OUCH!

T-Giving with Grandpa

We traveled to Tecumseh to visit my grandpa. My cousin, Jon, his wife, April and their daughter Alexa were there also. It was a great time. Felt like paradise! Literally, my grandpa keeps the temperature in the 80's and it was 84 when we were there!

My grandpa, Tyson, Trevor and me
Tyson and my grandpa. The last time my grandpa had seen
Tyson was when he was only 1 week old. What a change!

Not sure what's wrong with him this time...probably exhausted from wrestling with Uncle Dan.

Trying to act unamused!

Wild boyz!

This is when it gets weird...

My Aunt Pat lives in Phillipsburg Kansas, practically Nebraska, but just over the state line so we get to say we go to "Kansas" for Thanksgiving. My aunt and uncle live in a log cabin and she's an antique nut. Her house is amazing and my cousin and I had fun taking pictures among the "exhibits". This is right in front of the "Sooner Bee" which isn't where they live, it's a huge "play cabin" for her grandkids.
This is 1 of the 2 out houses that I saw, I'm sure there's more.

"We caught a fish"

Creepy guy in the old car had the hots for Stacy!
