Gardner Village... My FAVORITE place!!!!

I have to say... I LOVE Gardner Village!!! Even though I wasn't able to get any shopping in (its CRAZY with 5 kids) it was so much fun. My mom and I took all the grandkids down there yesterday (My brothers 3 boys and my 2, yep... no granddaughters yet) and we went to the petting zoo and my nephew got his face painted but my favorite part were all of the witches!!! It was so great, I'm already planning my next trip back there!!!

Yesterday Jackson's preschool class took a field trip to a pumpkin patch. It was pretty fun, Jackson really loved the haybale maze... but he would NOT smile for the camera when they were taking a group photo of all the kids in the hats. Guess I need to train my kid a little better about pictures. It was pretty funny too, cuz his teacher had all the kids pick a pumpkin out that they will paint on and then bring home after their party on Thursday and Jackson picked the smallest pumpkin in the patch!!!

Today was a big day for Tate. He got his first haircut (he was wiggly so don't look too close!) and I noticed on his bottom gums a couple of white bumps... could they be teeth? We'll keep you posted....

I guess Jackson was just too tired to make it the rest of the way up the stairs!!

This was Brent's first attempt at laying tile... I thought he did a pretty good job!!

Matt, Jackson & Tate

Me, Matt, Jack & Tate

My brother Matt came into town for the weekend, the last time we had seen him was at Christmas so this was actually his first meeting with Tate!!! It was so good to see him, even though it was short but he's promised to be back in April when my other brother, Bradley comes home from his mission.

Dad's Birthday

Yesterday was my dad's birthday. We celebrated by having dinner and then playing a mad game of Family Feud. Thanks to Pete & Kimberly for hosting!!! Love you guys.

For those of you that know me well.... you know how true this is!!!!

You Scored an A

You got 10/10 questions correct. It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors. If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs. As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human. And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes.

Both of You Wear the Pants

You and your guy seem to have stuck the perfect power balance. It's not that you don't disagree - it's just that you've learned how to compromise well. You're both mature enough to know that you can't always get your way... And usually, you're both adult enough to reach an agreement - even if that sometimes means giving in a little.
