Dear Santa..Oh, Christmas Tree..and GREAT NEWS TOO!

We did a bit of decorating, and finally got our tree up.

This year it is a real tree (yay!)

Since a family of little baby mice surprised us in our fake one. (no more storing stuff in the garage in cardboard!) LESSON LEARNED...(and let me save how THRILLED I was, when my DEAR husband decided to suck up, yes SUCK UP...the baby mice in my VACUUM..for another post. Yes, yes I'll do that :)...

Moving on shall we? :P

Anyway...here are some great pics and video!~

~~~~~~~~~

FIRST OFF....let's start with some..

GREAT NEWS...

I have to say how PROUD I am of Samuel! He made the A/B honor roll in his third grade class! Even with all the "issues" with focus he has been having.

Calling his name to recieve his certificate and free happy meal ticket...

And on TOP of that...to make the news even SWEETER (careful you'll get a toothache)..

I get these home from his teacher!~(all within a 2 week period!)

THIS ONE MAKES ME SOOOOOOO PROUD I CAN'T STAND IT!!!

This was the last one! :) GO BUG!!

He is such a great child. Sometimes I think I musta done SOMETHING right! :)

A video of them doing the Scout promise in front of the judges...(a funny little side note I'm adding for the vacuum incident dear! :) Ummm, if you will note at the beginning of the video...Brad (who is doing the videoography here)...cant even tell his son from another cub scout (though he figures it out) in blue! :)!

RANDOM SHOTS~

Fall Fun 2010 + A Surprise

Leaves, leaves, and more leaves!~ :)

We have a huge yard surrounded by forest so we get about 3 ft of leaves each year.

Cleaning them up is half the fun! :)

I can't get over how fast 2010 has gone. What a year it has been. So much stuff has happened...and yet here we are....

blessed!~

We have some pictures of our fall, the house and of course the surprise I mentioned above. :)

Enjoy! We sure did!

XoxoxoxoxoXOXO

My goobers. I love them So...

ARE YOU READY FOR THE NEW SURPRISE?

I am STILL in disbelief....

but..............

we got a puppy!~ from the SPCA.....

Meet Biscuit.....(once Midget)...

Brad is happy as pig in poop...he has worked on me for a LONG time for this!...

So is Bug... :)

He is a 5 month old hound mix....and is SUCH a good boy!!!!!

We REALLY got lucky with him. He is so calm and loving and a great listener. He isnt potty trained but so far has been awesome at learning. We are currently crate training him...and so far....so AWESOME! :)

Here he is on the first day we brought him home....he is SUCH A CUTIE!

You must be wondering how this all came about. As I was ADAMANT about not having another animal.

After all...who normally gets stuck with everything at the end of the day?? ME.

Well...that being said...

Bug takes SUCH good care of Missy(the kitty) and his responsibilty of her litter and food....PLUS he got on the A/B HONOR ROLL!!!!!! So I compromised....

we could get a puppy as long as I wasnt picking up ANY of the poop.....

Brad WHOLE heartedly agreed, and Sam and him made a pact to teamwork it.

So we went to the pound on Sat...JUST to look.

We saw Biscuit (formely Midget)...

and Brad FELL IN LOVE.

We took him into a room to check his temprement and how he behaved around cats, and he did great.

I STILL wasnt sold though.

After all a dog is a HUGE undertaking.

We slept on it.

Went back Sunday around 2 to take him outside to see his mannerism...

He sold us. :)

He was such a great dog it was like he was meant to be part of the "pack" (THANKS CEASER).

So now we have 6 members of the family. :)

I think we are finally complete!! scratch that...

I KNOW we are! :)

God bless!

P.S I have an update on Bug too....I'll get that out tomorrow! :)

GREAT WOLF LODGE!

HOLY MOLY what a FUN place to go!!

Expensive...but fun!!

The kids and even the ADULTS had such a blast!!

This place had EVERYTHING in it. You never had to leave.

Wanna know the COOLEST part?

You wore these plastic bracelets that were your room key, AND MONEY! (it was linked to a credit card when you check in)...so you NEVER have to carry ANYTHING!!!

You could use in in the stores, arcade, restaurants, food..etc....
it was SWEET!!!!!

There was also a game called "MagiQuest" for the kids...you buy a wand...and ALL throughout the lodge are pictures, stuffed animals, and other things that come along if you wave you wand. There is also a "quest involved" if you choose.
The kids LOVED this!!! I mean TOTALLY worth the $$$$$!

Anyway....here are TONS of pictures!!~

Here is the Lodge pulling up! It was HUGE!!!!
