Gift for Susan

I found this idea on Pinterest...

So Gramma, Mommy and T made his box of fun...

and mailed it off to Susan.  She pops the balloons and there are messages inside...

hopefully it puts a smile on her face!!!

Mommy and Gramma take T for some old school ice cream

I told Tristan... this is Tom Thumb.  It's on my favorite lake and my FAVORITE place for ice cream.  Bummer it was chilly but that didn't stop us from enjoying this view:

and some ice cream

and we even snapped a few pics!!

then on the way home, we drove by Grandma and Gramps house... man I (we) miss them. They sure would have loved you Nugg.

I was going to stop and play a prank on my cousin... but she ended up coming around the corner!  BUSTED!  So we got to see cousin Karen and cousin Jim.

 

 I should have worn makeup!

 

that's better!

I did this about 10 times... this kid keeps me on my toes!

 

last picture with the pup!

 

 

Sure was fun seeing family!!

 

We then came home and made some fun of our own...

 

MARBLE RUN!!!

 

trying to make our own fun... has been fun!!!

 

Daddy hit water!

So proud of you Holtie.  We love and miss you!!!

 

 

Happy (would've been) 100th Birthday Grandma!!

I miss you more than you can imagine Gram....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Daddy is off to Guatemala

Can't wait to see more pictures!

OUR first school project - we survived!!

So Holt and I went to orientation last week....

and, well... we signed up for a lot. We like to help. We want to be a part of T's schooling...

Little did we know the first thing Holt signed up for was due THIS Friday.  Yeah... THIS Friday.

So, off to the dollar store I went... and we ended up with this:

Daddy was finishing my soccer field...

 

you can see we are still building the "Healthy Habits Highway" - street needs dividers and cars are yet to be glued on but you get the picture.

 

 

 and this is our "NO Fast Food Farm"

 

Yes, that's a real tractor...

 

and this... well this is the "Town of Please and Thank You!"

 

And... where does everyone sleep you ask?

 

The "Cottage Of Consideration" of course!

 

(look at my little clothes on the clothesline!!)

 

 

 and if you need to work some ants out of your pants

 

Get on over and play soccer at "Fair Play Field"

 

 

 

Or ...if you need to just relax...

 

Get on over for a sailboat ride in the "Love the Lord Lagoon"

 

 

There is one square left to be completed.  Apparently Ms. Molet has a sign so we will be adding that

 

so you'll have to wait for that one!

 

At the end... they will end up at

 

"MS. Molet's Class - Population - 12"

 

 

 

Here are the "people" that Kate made... greatness!

 

 

 Will send a pic once everything is done. We are working with another mom... Holt took pictures of all the kiddos today and they are going to be stick figures with big 'ol heads added to this somehow.

 

It will be cute.  Tonight gave me a glimpse of what Holt and I will be doing for the next 15 years.

 

PROJECTS!  Thankfully we make a great team!

 

Just hope this one thinks so too!
