It's getting harder and harder for me to get these 2 together!  But I am bound and determined! so..... here is what I am given!  :) They will thank me one day for all this pictorial documentation!  :) 

Those Blue Eyes Look Green tonight......

Weekend fun!

We had a weekend full of partyin', ridin', washin' and relaxin'!

:)

 "What are YOU lookin' at, lady?"  

My Praying Mantus!

A sweet text from MJ this week from the kiddos! 

"Whatcha eatin'?" 

"What's on YOUR plate Momma?"

  

I was informed during playtime.... from Left to Right is Grandmom Tractor, Momma Tractor, Daddy Tractor and Baby Tractor!  

Like that sizeage! ;)

 

Reid decided he wanted to sit up on Pierce's 4 Wheeler! ;)

 Someone decided to not nap in his bed, but actually in his floor!  :) 

Mr. Technology!  :) 

We got to Party Hardy with Graham for his 2 year old Birthday!  

It was a beautiful day!

 Look at that sweet face!  :)

Reid LITERALLY loves to watch the washer!  He has been kind of fuss pot due to teething and for 5 minutes he was quiet and enjoyed the swish of the washer!  :)

Pierce helps me now sing The Star Spangled Banner to quiet Reid!  I asked him to do it with out me this day!  

Love it!

Had Bad "Hair" Day!

I have realized that my little fellas take after their Daddy.....they can wake up with some crazy hair! 

It makes me smile!  :)

A Picture is Worth 1,000 words.......

They say a picture is worth 1,000 words..... 

Wonder what they say about how many words 1,000 pictures are? 

:)

We got to go and spend some time in Paris!  We had such a good time!  

We canned homemade salsa, Pierce got to shuck corn for the 1st time, Reid got to ride in the Gator in his own homemade seat for the 1st time, A new baby calf was our entertainment every morning, and visiting the "Piggies" as Pierce said was a highlight of our trip!  

I do think this is what Momma and Daddy's (Nona and Papa's) hair looked like when we pulled out of the driveway on the last day!  They were beat! :) Thank you for letting us BEAT YOU DOWN!  :)
We loved every minute of it!  

We love you all so much!!!

 My Salsa!  Spot had given me a whole cooler of tomatoes!  This is what we did!  I can't wait to try it! :) 

 Fun in the bath tub every night!  :)

I got the seat in the back! Every one else is up front! You can barely see Pierce but he is sitting in front of Nona!  We are going to check on the baby calf!

 Isn't she cute!?

Momma's lilies!  SO TALL!

 The mushrooms were fun!

LIME!

Kumquat!

:)

Mom's pineapple!  Getting close to harvest!

Sweetness!

Kitty with No Name!

 Pierce had so much fun with the kitty!  As you can see on down in the pictures! ;)

10 AM Popsicle break!

 Pierce got to Shuck Corn the first time!  He did really good!  He would quit though when he got to the silk (aka: Hair as I call it!)   :)

 Friends!

Pierce feeding Baby some corn leaves!

 "Cheese Momma!"

Happy!

We got to go see piggies!............

 Just ONE of the control panels in the hog barns!  Mine boggling to me!

 Chasing them! (of course right?)

 Trying to get them to slow down to come up to them!

Eating!

:)

They nibble on your boots!

Cleaning out!

Love that face!

"Hello!"

Look at that mouth!  :)

Down the hallway of one of the barns!

Best picture ever I think!  :)

One of the tractors was left after working around the barns..... Pierce wanted to get in it!  as you can tell! :)

 Pierce's face, cracked me up, he was talking the ENTIRE TIME!

:)  

Our morning Gator ride!

We hadn't gotten Reid's special seat ready yet! ;)

 Hanging out in the front yard while Nona and I canned!

more corn!

 Reid watched this time!  :)

AND Reid's special seat was BORN!!!!!!! :)

YUMMY!!

Piggie cupcakes! :) Best Ever!

1st of MANY cupcakes! ;)

Reading the paper with Nona!

It was fair week for Henry County!  We meant to go, but I just enjoyed being at home so much that we didn't make it up there to see the entries and the livestock!  

I wanted to try to get some night time pics of the carnival without having pay to go in, though!  

so,I was lurked on the edges! ;)  

Brian got to come to Paris on Saturday and we took Pierce to see PLANES!!!! He did really excellent!  About 20 minutes until it was over he looked at me and said "I done, go Papa's house"  But we convinced him it was almost over and he needed to keep an eye out for the Tractors!  :)  

He MADE IT ALL THE THROUGH IT!!!  :) 

He enjoyed popcorn too as you can see!!! :)

Can you say "Best Cat Ever"?  

He let Pierce PUSH HIM IN THE STROLLER!!!!  

What cat does that??? ;)  

More pics to come here..... :) 

"Ta DA!"  :)

Dana and John wanted a picture with them and Bacon (Yep, the puppy's name is Bacon - HA!) with the pigs!  I tried to work my magic!  Hopefully they approve!  :) 

Clay, is one of Dana's good friend's sons....he loves to come out and visit John and Dana!  and John had him hard at work when we got there that morning!  :) 

I was able to get in the pen with the pigs this day.... and try to get some pictures!  They just MOVE SO MUCH!  I didn't get as many good ones as I would have liked, but, I'm getting some good ones in December if it kills me! (December is when John gets his next load of babies)  :) 

Cutest face ever! 

Clay, the Pig Whisperer!  :) 

"Oink" 

Love this! 

Napping! 

That little one with his nose up makes me laugh!  :)

OH!!!  and this is for my good friend and office mate......We pass this on the way to John's and the farm..... I thought she would love this! 

I think I have a thing for signs and I am just discovering this in the past couple of years!!!  :)
