Pumpkin Patch here we come!











































Who would have thought it was still going to be hot in late October? We had a good time, but did not stay long since it was so warm. The boys both got pumpkins, and Curtis got peanut butter fudge. Everyone was happy:)

Air Show































We headed to the Bay for the Blue Angels and Fleet Week. What an awesome experience to see the Navy men stanting along the edge of the aircraft carrier as it cruised into the bay. The boys loved the ferry ride over and seeing all the jets.

Whose chair?































They crack me up. Grayson is certainly coming into his own.

Brothers

My little chalk artists.











Love you!

































































































Fun in the front yard.

Landon Lines...and Why? Grayson Why?

Raising boys is certainly my calling. I have to thank my brothers for teaching me the ropes and, for the most part, preparing me to handle the daily ins and outs of boys.

Landon "It is about three five nine thirty."

Grayson likes to drink the bathwater. Don't judge, you're not allowed to duct tape children's mouths shut while they take a bath.

Landon "Gross Grayson. You just drank booty water." Little does he know

Landon "Mom, I can feel your waist and it is getting bigger and bigger." Guess I will go to the gym.

Grayson likes to help put on his lotion and then licks it off of his hands. I let him, thinking he will hate the taste and the natural consequence will work. WRONG! He just asks "mor peese"

Landon says after slamming his face into the corner of the table. "Mom come quick. Look what I did to the table. I left a tiny dent in it. I just earned 50,000 man points." Mommy thinks, "You actually earned the points from the shiner you just gave yourself, but if you think it is because you dented the table, we'll go with it."

Grayson likes to eat the chalk. He then cries and attempts to spit it out and looks at me with an angry expression as if to say "Why is this gross chalk in my mouth?" I look at him the the expression that says "Someday you'll catch on."

Landon "When I grow up I am going to be a rock star, secret spy, police man."

Grayson likes to eat crayons. It is a good look on him. Very colorful smile.

Landon watched "The Little Rascals" and especially liked Uh-hu. He says to me the other night as I am tucking him into bed. "Hey Uh-hu." Mommy replies, "Uh-hu." "Let's read one more story before bedtime?" Mommy says "Uh-hu." Then I realize I have just been outsmarted by a 4 year old.

Grayson loves to brush his teeth and then drag around the toothbrush to clean the rest of the house too. He now owns two toothbrushes.

Landon says the other night, "Mom, loosers suck." Mommy "What did you just say?" L, "I said loosers suck." Mommy "Where did you hear that?" L, "The Little Rascals." Mommy thinks that was probably not a good movie to show her own little rascal.

Grayson likes to take out the baby wipes, wipe the top of the changing table, and then put the baby wipe in his mouth. He smiles like he is so proud. I am starting to think his taste buds are a little off.

AND for the best line lately.... "Hey mom. I peed in your shower when the water wasn't on."
Mommy thinks "That is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time and where is my bleach?"

Yosemite!

I don't want to take a bath:(











Bath time and a BEAR!







































































Landon put on his helmet and went rock climbing. He he:)


























Go Girls!













































Yosemite was our first family trip this summer and we are hoping to make it a reoccurring one. (Reservations are next to impossible, Thank you Gina's Aunty El). The boys were great and Yosemite was beautiful. We had a great time with the Woods family, but especially loved watching the boys play together. Boys and dirt always equals a good time. Grayson loved the bike rides and made sure to say hello to everyone we passed in Yosemite. I called him the ambassador. Landon was a great little hiker and expert marshmallow eater. Here are some pictures from the trip. I will add more from my camera later. The bear is real, though hard to believe. Curt got some great shots of the wildlife. Grayson was excited to see the bear and deer too, but called everything a "puppy!" So fun!!!!

Landon Lines: Part 2
Landon looking at Mommy "Who ate my sandwich?"
Mommy: "I didn't eat your sandwich. Oh, Giggs must have eaten it."
Landon: "That little busted dog"


Landon and I were laying in his bed and I was telling him about how he was as a baby. I mentioned how he used to suck on his binki and then fall asleep. He looked at my sadly and said, "I miss my binki."
I started to laugh at the fact that I stupidly brought up the binki tragedy of 2010 again and that he still missed it. He looked at me seriously and said, "Go ahead. Laugh it up fuzzball." Clearly we have watched a lot of Star Wars.

Landon, the future Rock Star.

Here I am!
