pickin pumpkins

This is what happened when it was time to go!! lol

He had so many in there he couldn't push it.

Then he wanted to empty all the pumpkins and fill up with hay and sticks.

The Pumpkin Patch!!

Last friday we went to the pumpkin patch to pick out a few pumpkins for the porch. They had a few tractors there for the kids to climb on and a corn maze for the kid. They had a great time! Here are a few pics.

Ashlee liked the white ones

Zack liked all the pumpkins

Beebs came home to visit!!

Beebs loves his momma!!

HEllo

After two months of living with my brother Beebs finally came home to visit. The kids and I were very excited to have a sleep over with him. I am amazed at how much he doesn't want to be home with us! He is very satisfied with the amount of love and attention that Jared and all his friends show him. He is walked every day, fed some from the table, lays on the bed, and even gets his chopps whiped with a towel when he is overly slobbery! He has had a few problems lately we discovered he had 3 lumps on his body and immediately thought the worst. After surgery, 6 hours recovering at the vet and the sick stomach from the anesthesia we found he was fine. No cancer just fatty tissue!! Thanks to Jared and Chris for taking such good care of him, he loves you more than me :( Here are a few pics of the visit.

Camping at South Fork

Over labor day weekend we went camping with my family to South Fork. We used to have family reunions there with my dad's side of the family when I was little, but we have not been there in over 10 years. It was fun to get away, go tubing down the river and remember old times. We all had a great time and didn't want to come home! Here are some pics.

It's hard to say goodbye

Kisses and loves goodbye!

It was hard to make this decision but since Beebs keeps getting out of the house and not coming back, we figured it was time to find him a new home. For those of you who don't know Beebs plows the kids over to get out and the dog catcher has to bring him home. He has been out several times in the last few months, but we have been able to catch him. The last two times we have had to pay to get him out of puppy jail. It was hard for all of us. Jason gave Beebs to me for my birthday 4 months after we were married 7 1/2 years ago and the kids do not know life without him. We found him a new home with my brother Jared were there are no kids so he won't be let out and Jared and Chris spoil him. He gets walks every day, new toys and lots of attention. Thanks Jared for loving Beebs as much as we do. It breaks my heart that I wont's see him wagging his tail for loves when I get home!! We love you Beebs!!
