fluff

i got a sweet email from someone the other day wondering why i haven’t been posting and replied that i just haven’t had much to say… lots of fluff but nothing terribly exciting. she replied that she liked reading my fluff. so in case you do too, here’s today’s fluff. 🙂 and i am not just talking about her hair. 🙂

i am so sorry she has a mom who forgets about the girly details. i rarely dress her in dresses, i rarely take the time to comb and brush her hair. 🙂 chris ends up doing it. i am used to my boys who have ‘wake up and go’ hair! and thank god kira is old enough to take care of hers herself! i do appreciate her curls though, so i am going to try and do better. sheesh. 🙂

love this pic of kira and her best friend at the baseball snack stand. so glad they were there to cover my shift since i know elsie would have been a little terror in there. she is addicted to the red vines! like her mommy! 🙂 speaking of kira, she misplaced her glasses and needs a new pair. sigh. anyone seen any cute frames?

i can’t tell you how many times i find her here. this is the snack cabinet. her favorite: raisins. she thinks she likes the granola bars and i tell everyone.. don’t open the granola bars for her.. she doesn’t eat them!!! what do we do? we can’t resist her and we open the granola bar. 🙂 who could resist her in her gauchos? seriously, i melt!

this boy cracks us up. he always has issues with his pants. did you see the last post where he had on holy jeans? i said no more holy jeans. you have to start wearing these lovely new pants. he pitched a fit.. he doesn’t like the way the cargo pocket feels on his skin. you’re kidding me. kid, you are wearing them. more fit, more fit, more fit. a few hours later.. cakes- what’s up with the pants? oh, they’re fine! 🙂 (of course!)

i love how the boys can use the last few minutes in the morning before school starts to play stuff. then they leave it there and when i pick them up, the first thing caleb says is: wanna finish playing?!? love it.

you don’t know how hard it is for me not to eat the kids candy. mmmm. lindt chocolate!!!

and the kid’s crosses from church on sunday. caleb says, i used red for the blood of christ. nice! 🙂

it is windy today!!!! see my wind chimes?! the power already went out, the street lights are all out and the windows are rattling! what’s up with that? elsie is so funny in the wind. i need to get a pic of her!

and flowers from the garden. mom was here over the weekend and put some in a jar for me. of course she did.. because jamie doesn’t do things like that! she also cleaned off our surfaces.. a very nice treat for chris.. he loves clean surfaces. we also got to go on a few dates. major treats for us. we appreciate mucho. xoxoox

oh and did you see last sunday’s brothers and sisters??? the artichoke town where they filmed is ours!!! we saw them filming and were amazed to see it on air already! the new nancy drew movie that’s out soon was also filmed here.. at the church where c and i got married! and the scary new halloween movie was also filmed here.. cam and chris saw it during a night run. crazy to see them transform a street into  halloween when it’s not!

did you actually read all that?? it was a lotta fluff!!!! 🙂
