The wierd thing about it is that this is the age that I can remember my mom being. I can't remember her turning 30 or 31, but I can definitely remember her being 32. wierd, huh? Kind-of makes me feel a little old! I found my 2nd gray hair last week and pulled it out immediately..good thing I've got lots of blond now! Yesterday I was thinking over my life and felt so very grateful! God has blessed me with amazing parents, an awesome brother and sister-n-law, and not one, but TWO gorgeous sisters who I am so very proud of! Then He brought me my husband and his great family! God has given me such an amazing husband who becomes more dear to me as each day passes and then 3 little munchkins who are my rays of sunshine and complete my heart! Thank you God for all of your abundant blessings that you have put in my life, I know that in the big picture, they are all a GIFT from YOU!<br /><br />My day, yesterday, was so great! My husband let me sleep in, which in my family is like gold! I was awakened before school with a FULL song of "Hark, the Herald Angels sing" by Benjamin, Luke and cousin, Jaxon! It wasn't the quiet christmas carol version, it was the loud, rock band version! I was laughing so hard that this was the song they chose to sing me! Ben said that they practiced a few different songs, and this was the one they stuck with! Then they filed over to the bed and handed me their birthday cards, complete with "happy Birthday, Mom" to "you're beautiful" to pictures of Jesus on the cross, being that it was just Easter! Then I went back to sleep and I got to sleep in til 9:45!!! I SOOOOO needed it! I drank my starbucks from hubby in bed, then walked out into a clean house to which my amazing husband had done that morning, plus he had taken the day off! I finished the day with lunch with my very best friend, freshberry with Ben and the kids, a suprise appointment at a spa for a massage, dinner at my favorite restaurant with Ben and then cake at home with mom and dad! After that I cried my eyes out watching "Marley and Me"...<br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:180%;">what a great day!</span></div><span style="font-size:180%;"></span><br /><div align="center">Thank You, Ben, for such a special day!

And I didn't even have anything to do with it! All of a sudden about 2 weeks ago, she just decided that she didn't want it anymore! She went to sleep with it that night and then woke up, sucked on it and then just handed it to me...never to be used again! It was great, but the only thing was that Ben and I weren't really ready to give up the paci yet, we even kept trying to give it back to her, with NO success! I hadn't even thought about weaning her from it yet, oh the paci, we miss you, paci!! My house and my car is soo much louder now! I should probably just be grateful! I think that she subconsciously wanted to out do her brothers..they both weaned in a day after cutting holes in theirs, but she's too good for that I guess! What she doesn't know is that her brothers beat her by about 3 months! Oh well, what Miss Diva doesn't know won't hurt her!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/Scfn7SXB6MI/AAAAAAAAAgg/kDDYas-itXs/s1600-h/dec08+through+march08+291.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316472890860890306" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/Scfn7SXB6MI/AAAAAAAAAgg/kDDYas-itXs/s400/dec08+through+march08+291.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/ScfnXscB3yI/AAAAAAAAAgY/kibKQGWfqA4/s1600-h/dec08+through+march08+290.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316472279385890594" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/ScfnXscB3yI/AAAAAAAAAgY/kibKQGWfqA4/s400/dec08+through+march08+290.jpg" /></a><br /><div><div align="center">I wonder what she has in store for us next?</div><br /><div align="center"><br /><br /></div><br /><div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-6321311872736262963?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-57232522300260443322009-03-23T12:23:00.000-07:002009-03-23T12:35:58.564-07:00<div align="center">Ella gets to do this...<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/Scfir069gfI/AAAAAAAAAgA/DBs8ND6H9KI/s1600-h/dec08+through+march08+456.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316467127702356466" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/Scfir069gfI/AAAAAAAAAgA/DBs8ND6H9KI/s400/dec08+through+march08+456.jpg" /></a> Maybe that's why she is such a daddy's girl! </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">BUT, he could have at least got her hair out of her face </div><div align="center">and out of the chocolate and took off her clothes...right?</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">The clean up must have been a chore, </div><div align="center">because he hasn't done it since! </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-5723252230026044332?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-15358781062971674572009-03-23T11:11:00.000-07:002009-03-23T12:22:09.474-07:00<div align="center">First grade basketball season ended a couple weeks ago.

It really opens your eyes about the underground world of human trafficking and how easy it is for these men to take these women and the lengths they go to to conceal it all. And the worst part, in the world right now, this is a HUGE problem! The news needs to start making this more of an issue. They say that you have 96 hours to find them or they are pretty much lost forever. After seeing this movie, I believe it! But, seriously, every girl should see this movie, no matter how old you are!

Even sitting in our seats before the show, with all these big teeth on stage, Luke thought we were going to see "Madagascar 2" and Benjamin thought we were going to see the circus!!! Finally, when the announcer said the "Walk with Dinosaurs" show would start in 5 minutes, our secret was out and they were sooo excited!</div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">Luke was kind of bummed for a minute in the beginning when they opened up the show with a little movie, " AGH! It's a movie, not dinosaurs?" I pointed out to him these cute little baby dinosaurs on a rock in the middle of the stage, AND THEN, the curtains opened and out comes this real life fun- looking dinosaur and Luke's face was PRICELESS!!!! He was so excited!!! "They're real, momma!" Excited until, the dinosaur goes over and EATS the cute little baby dinosaur and has it dangling in it's mouth!!! The dinosaur then looks our way and then I hear loudly, " MOM, IT'S GOING TO EAT US!!!" from my wide-eyed little Luke! I quickly reassured him that they were in fact not going to eat us...Yep, within 5 minutes of the beginning of the show their is gasping, kids crying and kids that were once in their paid for seat are now in their parents lap!!! Thankfully, my boys just sat there and watched in awe! </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">The show goes through the different prehistoric eras and the different dinosaurs that go with that era and tells the life of the dinosaur. Everything was just awesome, from the pop-up vegetation, the lights, to the huge dinosaur poop! I couldn't get over how REAL the dinosaurs looked and how big they were compared to the guy, excuse me "paleontologist", that was on stage talking about them. Whoever made these things is amazing! Even their wrinkled skin looked so real! Their eyes blinked and the way they moved was so impressive! All of that combined, made you quickly forget that these things were indeed animated and fake and that the big dino's were on some sort of sliding thing and that the velocoraptor had 4 legs instead of 2! And the way they sounded and looked at you, GEEZ!!!!! That was probably 1/2 the reason that most of the kids were on their parents laps!!!</div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">We started off before the show in our balcony seats, but because there wasn't alot of people there, we ran to the lower seats right before the show started, and if you can do that,</div><div align="left">DO IT!!! To see the dinosaurs up close makes it even more fun and life-like! And I highly recommend the snow cones...yummy! </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">This show was by far the coolest kids show that we have ever been too! But, beware, it is not just the sweet, friendly "land before time" dinosaurs that are there....following the impending doom music, the predators from "Jurassic park" show up for dinner!</div><div align="left"></div><div align="center">and...</div><div align="center">guess who followed us home? </div><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHKP374LPI/AAAAAAAAAZg/CxSjVydcsLY/s1600-h/jan+09+003.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296737010826358002" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHKP374LPI/AAAAAAAAAZg/CxSjVydcsLY/s400/jan+09+003.jpg" /></a><span style="font-size:130%;"> Lukeosaurus</span> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-559403269910220216?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-87228535596040351742009-01-29T07:14:00.000-08:002009-01-29T20:32:00.037-08:00crazy haired and bug-eyed, going on the third day of no school for the kids because of ice and snow... p.s. the roads are FINE today, should have had school! <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHIswLMSJI/AAAAAAAAAZY/Y9AghhU3lms/s1600-h/crazyhair5.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 269px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296735307936057490" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHIswLMSJI/AAAAAAAAAZY/Y9AghhU3lms/s400/crazyhair5.jpg" /></a><br />well. at least Ella is enjoying it!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHIiSInqBI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/uswquxgxWUg/s1600-h/jan+09+001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296735128073512978" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SYHIiSInqBI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/uswquxgxWUg/s400/jan+09+001.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-8722853559604035174?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-5264618951558425592009-01-15T17:29:00.000-08:002009-01-15T17:33:01.012-08:00Ok, here you go, you wanted to see my HUGE muscles, so here they are!

We had such an awesome time! We can't wait for next year, but will probably go someplace a little bit closer! That was such a LONG drive! It was probably made worse with 3 kids in the back! But it was all worth it, Purgatory is such a fun mountain to ski! Ben and I got engaged in Durango 10 years ago, so it was fun to go back! The boys took 3 days of ski school and loved every minute of it, It was really fun to watch them progress every day, Ella did great in the child care and we got to watch my mom and dad learn how to ski for the first time, I got to try snowboarding and had such an awesome time skiing with Ben and my sisters!

Well, she just turned one on friday, December 12th! I can't believe that it has already been one year since she was born! </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">A little of the story...This time last year, we were in the middle of an ice storm and had no electricity! It was tuesday, Ben had just met his mom in Joplin to borrow a generator! I was schedule to be induced on Thursday. I had been praying that since this was my last baby, that I would go into labor on my own to see what that "felt like". The boys were both induced. In the middle of the night, I started having contractions and boy did they come on fast and REALLY strong! We jumped in the car, met my parents in the driveway, sped through town, passed a cop, reminded myself to breathe, squeeled into the circle drive at the hospital, forgot to turn off the car, waited for the slowest elevator ever, then waited some more at the admitting window with the slowest nurse ever, raced back to a room, stripped and thrown on the bed, still trying to remind myself to breath, checked by a not so gentle graduate nurse and heard" she's an 8", watched my husband LEAVE the room to go and move the car, stuck with a needle, was pleading for my already paid epidural, saw a nurse gowning up for delivery, was relieved to see my doctor run in obviously just out of his comfy bed at the hospital since he was living there due to the ice storm, saw my mom and sisters run in to watch, was still pleading with Ben and the nurses for my epidural, heard" it's too late for your epidural", relunctanly agreed to take stadol which was not in the room, felt alot of "fire" if you get my drift, didn't even need to push, she was coming anyway ...then my sweet baby girl that I had SO prayed for was before me in a matter of maybe 5 minutes..</div><div align="center">Born at 3:41am! </div><div align="center">And then the not so friendly nurse came in with the stadol...are you kidding me?!!!</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Yep this is how it went! From door to baby, 23 minutes! Alot more graphics, but I won't go there! It was so fast! I guess God answered my prayers about seeing what "labor" felt like! But I should have added to that prayer for no pain, and less chaos! To Ben, it was all a blur! He was just thankful that we left when we did and he didn't have to deliver a baby!</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">But it was all worth it! Ella is the sweetest little girl!

Sorry, Luke! Yes, Luke is FINALLY 5! His birthday was November 13th~This has been the longest year ever! On his 4th birthday, he looked up at me and said " mom, I can't wait to be 5"..... Little did I know then, that he seriously wanted nothing to do with being 4, but wanted to be the almighty 5! It seemed like everyday from then on, he was asking how much longer to his birthday! Yes, it has been the longest year ever for him!!! This year him and Benjamin had a "joint" birthday party which was alot of fun, but on his actually birthday we had a little dinner party for him to celebrate. He wanted to go to McDonalds! Benjamin talked him into Incredible Pizza, which was extremely loud, due to the 200 or so teenagers there for some sort of something...They just took over the place! But he had alot of fun though! He wanted a power ranger, a transformer and a "red walkman" like his brother. So, in the end it was a great night! <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FwEaZjI/AAAAAAAAAQw/srQfouiYdFc/s1600-h/november2008+058.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271245759337621042" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FwEaZjI/AAAAAAAAAQw/srQfouiYdFc/s400/november2008+058.jpg" /></a> Blowing out his candle....<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FlNHzYI/AAAAAAAAAQo/ZZJqhLwbkYg/s1600-h/november2008+075.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271245756421361026" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FlNHzYI/AAAAAAAAAQo/ZZJqhLwbkYg/s400/november2008+075.jpg" /></a> Blowing our his candle... <div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FfGFYiI/AAAAAAAAAQg/xLuOrOEMpOY/s1600-h/november2008+078.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271245754781229602" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SSc6FfGFYiI/AAAAAAAAAQg/xLuOrOEMpOY/s400/november2008+078.jpg" /></a> <div><div>His shark ranger from Benjamin...<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScwfy63zUI/AAAAAAAAAQY/roSaFeE3VNM/s1600-h/november2008+080.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271235211663232322" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScwfy63zUI/AAAAAAAAAQY/roSaFeE3VNM/s400/november2008+080.jpg" /></a> His torch transformer from Ella...<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScwfvLi_GI/AAAAAAAAAQQ/iLCgUTyTJDQ/s1600-h/november2008+084.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271235210659429474" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScwfvLi_GI/AAAAAAAAAQQ/iLCgUTyTJDQ/s400/november2008+084.jpg" /></a> His red walkman from papa and gigi...<br /><br /></div><div align="center">Happy 5th Birthday my sweet Luke! </div><div align="center">You are growing up to be such a mighty man of God!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScwe8WMh8I/AAAAAAAAAQA/_dT0ctiLCiY/s1600-h/november2008+103.jpg"></a><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SScweHn9OkI/AAAAAAAAAP4/dXT4AwtxX74/s1600-h/november2008+104.jpg"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-2996478640782595833?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-45685402830909242502008-10-31T19:53:00.000-07:002008-10-31T20:11:10.593-07:00I just had to post these pics, I LOVE them!

They had a blast for some reason today...Usually, the boys will get bored and then just start digging in the dirt or something like that. But today, was different. Luke met a little friend who ran around with him and they were all over that park! Benjamin played with Ella mostly which was really fun to watch... This was the first time that Ella actually "played". She loved climbing up one side and then sliding down the other, with Benjamin's help of course. I think she is getting her independent streak though, because she kept pushing his hands away! Plus, when you take her away from something, she starts making<em> ALOT</em> of noise! <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkQE94esiI/AAAAAAAAAN4/e-XA_G6egOQ/s1600-h/park+020.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262755317076111906" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkQE94esiI/AAAAAAAAAN4/e-XA_G6egOQ/s400/park+020.jpg" /></a> Riding the ladybug...this was after some "whiplash" from Luke" helping her ride"!<br />At least <em>they</em> thought it was funny...<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPkHlIrFI/AAAAAAAAANw/P-f0zJmscZ4/s1600-h/park+022.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262754752743648338" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPkHlIrFI/AAAAAAAAANw/P-f0zJmscZ4/s400/park+022.jpg" /></a> Climbing the rockwall...he is obsessed with this outfit, the shirt is way too small:)<br /><div></div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPjlXn56I/AAAAAAAAANo/5KzlYDez5qY/s1600-h/park+031.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262754743560169378" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPjlXn56I/AAAAAAAAANo/5KzlYDez5qY/s400/park+031.jpg" /></a> Ella kept looking over the top, probably wondering, <em>"what is this thing?!"<br /><br /></em><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPjasHLKI/AAAAAAAAANg/5jCBzABJAok/s1600-h/park+054.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262754740693314722" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPjasHLKI/AAAAAAAAANg/5jCBzABJAok/s400/park+054.jpg" /></a> She thought she was big stuff playing with the music makers...<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPizdCEdI/AAAAAAAAANY/l2aId3xpXnk/s1600-h/park+066.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262754730161082834" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPizdCEdI/AAAAAAAAANY/l2aId3xpXnk/s400/park+066.jpg" /></a> Some more "whiplash" from Benjamin... which they still thought was funny!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPijvZGtI/AAAAAAAAANQ/bEBGRRzGFM0/s1600-h/park+075.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262754725943122642" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SQkPijvZGtI/AAAAAAAAANQ/bEBGRRzGFM0/s400/park+075.jpg" /></a> This was a tube that you can crawl up in with holes all over it, I looked up and there she was!

Actually, Martha Stewart gets the credit, not me! First of all, they make a great teachers gift! Since our school doesn't celebrate Halloween, we try to improvise! We used to do this for friends, family and neighbors also, but 20 pumpkins later I was covered head to toe in glitter and it was ALL OVER my house, so now we stick to just the teachers and their assistants! This year I only had 3 to do! I try to use "Fallish" glitter colors of red, gold and green, but you can really do whatever. My favorite is the red and the gold. When I add green to the mix, it starts looking a bit like christmas! Mixing the glitter is pretty too. All you do is spead elmers glue with a paintbrush all over 1/2 of the pumpkin and then pour the glitter over that half, then let dry. Then come back and put glue on the other half, then cover that side in glitter. After that dries, I put dabs of glue where you can see the pumpkin and then recover with glitter. You can either leave the stems their natural color or you can paint them green, I have done both and either way looks great! Then I wrap in celephane, tie with a ribbon and add a " Happy Fall" card...So easy to do and so simple! Last year I went fancy smancy with the decorative ribbon and fancy cards, then Benjamin said that it looked "girly", so I will have to save the fancy stuff for Ella Grace's teachers, then I can go all out! Well as much as you can with a pumpkin~ </p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-5830133554987785359?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-89756805145417525182008-10-20T09:28:00.000-07:002008-10-20T11:33:17.231-07:00It is always a fun time when it's time to go to the pumpkin patch! The boys love going to pick out their very own pumpkin. However, they do grimace a little when I pull out the camera and start telling them to smile! This year they had to " freeze smile" while Ben was trying to get Ella's attention so I could quickly take a picture! They were good sports about it though! Ella loved the playhouse, which Luke "protected" her the whole time. She also loved the wagon and at times it was a battle to get her to not stand up! The boys loved jumping from the top of the hay pile ( Thank you Jesus for no broken bones!) 5 pumpkins later, dirty boys and a bleeding lip (yep. ella fell in the wagon as she was standing up) it was unfortunately time to go. Usually they want to paint their pumpkin for some odd reason, but this year we managed to convince them to carve something fun on them! Since Ben won't be here for Halloween, we decided to go ahead and carve them this weekend, hopefully they won't go bad real fast! We tried to find something to carve on them that wasn't too "halloweenish" so we went with a silly face and a spider. All in all it was great fun! The boys really got into the carving thing..Luke loved pulling the "pumpkin guts" out, which of course Benjamin thought was "gross"! Daddy in the end had to finish them, but they really turned out cute. Thanks , daddy! Isn't it great when you <em>truly</em> have a "family day". So many memories made in such a little ounce of time makes you truly grateful for what God has given you...Thank you God for my precious family! <br /> <br /> <br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SPy81xTwZHI/AAAAAAAAALw/VwymSIa6UZY/s1600-h/pumpkin+patch+009.jpg"> <br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SPy81xTwZHI/AAAAAAAAALw/VwymSIa6UZY/s1600-h/pumpkin+patch+009.jpg"> <br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SPy81xTwZHI/AAAAAAAAALw/VwymSIa6UZY/s1600-h/pumpkin+patch+009.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

It was an Army party in the park complete with camo bandanas, dog tags, and camo face paint! They went on a "mission" that included about 5 clues in all and then finished off with some good ol' fashioned tug o' war! They have talked about it ever since and say that they want to do it again next year! <br /> I might just be ok with that, Ben and I had just as much fun as all the kids! <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff"><tr><td><a href="http://smilebox.com/play/4e4467354d6a41334e773d3d0d0a&campaign=blog_playback_link&blogview=true" target="_blank"><img width="386" height="303" alt="Click to play benjamin and luke birthday party" src="http://smilebox.com/snap/4e4467354d6a41334e773d3d0d0a.jpg" style="border: medium none ;"/></a></td></tr><tr><td><a href="http://www.smilebox.com/?partner=google&campaign=blog_snapshot" target="_blank"><img width="386" height="46" alt="Create your own slideshow - Powered by Smilebox" src="http://www.smilebox.com/globalImages/blogInstructions/blogLogoSmileboxSmall.gif" style="border: medium none ;"/></a></td></tr><tr><td align="center"><a href="http://www.smilebox.com/slideshows" target="_blank">Make a Smilebox slideshow</a></td></tr></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-4158330154972705521?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-89697401872552055182008-10-01T10:19:00.000-07:002008-10-01T10:25:13.648-07:00Thank you so much to all our faithful readers!

Sorry it took so long! It was actually pretty easy, I figured it out myself! And it works, tried it out today! I thought I was a "computer person" until I got knee deep into the blog world and realized that I had a lot to learn..widgets, gadgets, html, playlists...all new words for me, but old words for the pro bloggers! Thank you to all who have helped me figure this stuff out!<br /><br />So, now you can subscribe to our blog and then you will get an email when I put out a new post!<br /><br />But just in case, if you see that you are not getting emails related to the blogs after all, please let me know, maybe my efforts weren't as good as what I thought!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-6973297292635128890?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-84254992371819890702008-09-21T14:29:00.000-07:002008-09-21T14:44:41.212-07:00We had so much fun with Aunt Rachael and Brent while they were home and now it is time for them to go back to Maryland. <em>SO sad</em>. The boys loved having them home and were very upset when they had to go....Benjamin cried before we left the house and Luke was shouting and waving, "good-bye everybody!", like no big deal, what is all the crying about? I knew that he didn't realize what was going on, but I knew it would come eventually...<br /><br />As Benjamin was silently crying in the backseat of the car, all of a sudden Luke yells at the top of his lungs.."IT'S NOT FAIR!" and I said, "What's not fair?" And then<br />Luke said" First Maryland took uncle Justin and now they have aunt Rachael!" Like Maryland was some character off of Stars Wars or something...maybe one day they will understand?<br />It just made us all cry harder!<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SNa8_yxA3nI/AAAAAAAAAI4/qr5cwvmno6w/s1600-h/DSC_0006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248590219892022898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SNa8_yxA3nI/AAAAAAAAAI4/qr5cwvmno6w/s400/DSC_0006.JPG" border="0" /></a> We love you Brent and aunt Rachael!

I can't believe that he is 7 years old! I remember bringing him home from the hospital like it was yesterday! <em>What a beautiful boy he was!</em> And what a great baby:) So laid back! I can't imagine him getting any older, <em>but I know he will</em>. I thank God every day for sending me such a precious boy! What a joy to be his mother! He is going to be a <strong>mighty man of God</strong> and be able to do anything that he sets his mind to!

All the grandparents chipped in and got him a "Wii" game system, which he has been wanting now for a year and a half!

It is 3 on 3 soccer which is pretty fun to watch! He stopped 4 goals from the other team! <em>However</em>, once he did that, he decided to be the goalie <em>all the time</em>, even when his team needed him down <em>at the other end of the field!</em> So in the end, there was a lot of yelling "Luke, go help your team" and then he would take off in full sprint to the other end!<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLWvEKhEI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/b0IPiHan6zs/s1600-h/september08+027.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243117245152527426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLWvEKhEI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/b0IPiHan6zs/s400/september08+027.jpg" border="0" /></a> fighting for the ball with his own team mate...<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLWzBgl-I/AAAAAAAAAGY/3h8KieIe-OQ/s1600-h/september08+031.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243117246215133154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLWzBgl-I/AAAAAAAAAGY/3h8KieIe-OQ/s400/september08+031.jpg" border="0" /></a> gettin the hang of it...<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLXllzRSI/AAAAAAAAAGg/uglTfs1yEJc/s1600-h/september08+041.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243117259789124898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLXllzRSI/AAAAAAAAAGg/uglTfs1yEJc/s400/september08+041.jpg" border="0" /></a> group huddle...<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLX2lDYBI/AAAAAAAAAGo/YRJX7JRJCJM/s1600-h/september08+050.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243117264349388818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLX2lDYBI/AAAAAAAAAGo/YRJX7JRJCJM/s400/september08+050.jpg" border="0" /></a> Go fire!!!<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLYK97I5I/AAAAAAAAAGw/nuvceIyabTY/s1600-h/september08+055.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243117269822415762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SMNLYK97I5I/AAAAAAAAAGw/nuvceIyabTY/s400/september08+055.jpg" border="0" /></a> What a great game, they all played really well and were exhausted at the end!

About 15 minutes later, he has proudly finished his business, "wow, that's a big one" and also his magazine!<br /><br /><br />Benjamin and Luke needed a break from each other badly, so I told Luke to go upstairs and play in his room with his special toys.

He <em>loves</em> soccer and Ben and I know nothing about it, but we are trying to learn the rules right along side Luke! They ran the <em>entire</em> practice! They played keep-a-way, sharks and minnows, and then did some soccer drills, he was exhausted afterwards! But on the way home, inbetween whining about another drink, he said how much he <em>loves</em> soccer and how he can't wait until next practice! His little team is going to be really good, I think, ya know for 4-5 year olds!<br />I just need to bring 2 water bottles next time for my thirsty camel.....<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcvDK_m0I/AAAAAAAAAEY/Z_HGcCnbrLE/s1600-h/august2208+143.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239758654843886402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcvDK_m0I/AAAAAAAAAEY/Z_HGcCnbrLE/s400/august2208+143.jpg" border="0" /></a>Playing keep-a-way with the ball<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcvlD9kJI/AAAAAAAAAEg/5jii7khTDPY/s1600-h/august2208+145.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239758663941197970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcvlD9kJI/AAAAAAAAAEg/5jii7khTDPY/s400/august2208+145.jpg" border="0" /></a> Doin the soccer dance...<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwErjACI/AAAAAAAAAEo/cc6-I8ha1Yo/s1600-h/august2208+154.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239758672428728354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwErjACI/AAAAAAAAAEo/cc6-I8ha1Yo/s400/august2208+154.jpg" border="0" /></a> No, no , no, it's that goal down there...<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwoJjOFI/AAAAAAAAAEw/i1nDO_mBlg0/s1600-h/august2208+179.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239758681949812818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwoJjOFI/AAAAAAAAAEw/i1nDO_mBlg0/s400/august2208+179.jpg" border="0" /></a> This is what happens when daddy decides to shoot for a goal, uh..he breaks it...:)<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwzMfy4I/AAAAAAAAAE4/2AXleb0b7Yw/s1600-h/august2208+206.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239758684914961282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLdcwzMfy4I/AAAAAAAAAE4/2AXleb0b7Yw/s400/august2208+206.jpg" border="0" /></a> The future David Beckham...uh, you know, the born-again, saved <em>christian</em> one...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2524371896929939120-1462534483183104342?l=freemanfive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frameyourwords.comnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524371896929939120.post-4088368214686884152008-08-25T10:40:00.000-07:002008-08-25T12:30:45.929-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLLwWeZosUI/AAAAAAAAADw/GmHvDY4bX68/s1600-h/august2208+046.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5238513585493684546" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0sVgHIe8Db0/SLLwWeZosUI/AAAAAAAAADw/GmHvDY4bX68/s400/august2208+046.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />So the boys and daddy thought that it would be a lot of fun to see if Ella would like to be stuck in a laundry basket and to their delight...she <em>LOVED</em> it!
