Happy biRthDay AVI...the BIG 1!

I can't believe how time flies!!! I know that that is so cliche, but it is just so true! One year ago today our family was blessed with one of the sweetest little girls that I have ever know. And I feel so lucky that she is mine. She is definatley not a baby anymore though... she is a dimple wearing, sparkly eyed, red headed, 6 tooth, skooting around, spit fire of a 1 year old!! Giving her older brother more of a run for it every day! We just love you so much Ave's!! And we can't imagine our lives without you.

Now THAT'S a sHiNeR!!!

Tonight Beckham, Quinn & my brother Brock went on a 4-wheeler ride. Beckham loves anything that goes fast. Well lets just say that they might have got going a little too fast. They were going over some "loopdy-loops"(big bumps) as Becks called them & when they came down, the handle bar just jumped up and got him right in the eye. Quinn said that he didn't cry too hard & that he just wanted to keep going. When they got home he must have asked me 20 times to look at his boo-boo in the mirror. He said it was just like on Doctor Daisy from Mickey Mouse Club House...for those who have kids. Anyway, he was pretty proud, & wanted to put it right on the computer to show Bobbi(grammy) Donna.

I'M A BIG BOY NOW!!!!

Well, after a couple of long nights... we are officially BINKY FREE!!! While Beckham was at school on Friday, I was making his bed & decided that enough was enough!!! I took his binky and cut the top off. When I went to pick him up I told him that they were broken. The first thing that he said was "Don't throw them away!!!" So that night he cried for a while telling me that I needed to get him a new one, but after a while(an hour and a half to be exact) he calmed down and fell asleep. By the next morning he said he wanted to throw them in the garbage. Followed by "I'n a BIG BOY...I not need dos anymore". Next is potty training!

Double Your Pleasure...Double Your FUN!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to our friends Kacy & Darin... they just found out this week that they are being blessed with Identical Twins. Kacy & I went to the Garth Brooks concert together. She was feeling quite tired the next day, little did she know that this was why. Anyway, Congrats again & good luck!

HEY- What's Cookin'?

One of my friends in my recipe club told me that I should blog my recipes that I make each month. Hense the new segment...HEY- What's Cookin'? Every Sunday night I will Post a new digital recipe card. Some I have created myself and others from some of my digi friends. Hopefully you enjoy it & try some of them out. This Sunday I made shredded pork enchiladas with green sauce. This is the recipe for the pork. I just rolled it in corn tortillas with cheese, topped with canned green enchilada sauce &--more cheese, of course.

Better late than never!

So I know that I am a little late, but unfortunately my blog had to take a backseat to the store. But anyway... here are our pics from Halloween and October in general. The kids were Mickey & Minnie Mouse. Avi wouldn't keep her hat on, so I had to run out and buy a matching bow at the last minute.( for all that know me, that will come as no surprise). They both made a hawl and we only went to about 10 houses. Let's be honest, when you're this cute, people just give you what you want!

AND THE WINNER IS..... ME!!!!!

Can I just tell you all how excited I am. This morning I had to come to work early to do some funeral arrangements for George Osmonds funeral and I was listening to the radio. I know nothing new right? Then they started playing kind of a game called "Joe's List". Kind of like Craig's List. What would you trade for Garth Brooks concert tickets. So, I called and told them that I would trade the funeral arrangement that I had just made and stay to make another one, if they would give me the tickets. Long story short. They let me keep the arrangement and gave me a pair of tickets to the sold out concert in Kansas City... on MONDAY. And believe it or not, they are pretty good seat. Lower bowl 16Th row. Needless to say I am totally excited even though at the present time I have no idea how I will get there or where I will stay. I'll update ya later!!!

Pardon our mess!!! We will remain open during construction.

As you can see we are currently under construction. We will be cute again soon!!
I will do some halloween posts later today. Sorry that I have been such a slacker!
We changed over the store to Christmas, so Bloomer's has pretty much been my life.
So come in if you need some really cute Christmas decor. I'll post pics of the store soon too.
