Green Teef

Halloween is quickly approching and Ryker is starting to get ready.
 
 
 
Maybe I should stop fighting the fight of the teeth brushing...
I mean he's even cute with green teeth!
 
 
ROAR --- Monster
 
 
 
 
Wow Ryker, You are so Scary!
 
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend.
My weekend is going to be filled with seeing people I dont get to see very often.
 
Pictures to follow next week! :)

Life Lately through Instagram

Well I have totally been failing on the blogging front.
With that said,
Here's life lately through Instagram.
 
We painted after having a melt down about ice cream.
 
 
 
We rocked out to some Sunday Night Football with Shania Twain
 
 
Our new porch pet....NOT!
Lucas said he killed it... I don't believe him.

 
 
 


 
 
Few hours after my surgery...
Surgery had to be done in preparation of the Exciting News !!!!
 
 Grandma with her boys.
 
Cousins enjoying each other.
 

 
 
 
 


 
 
3 Best Friends.
Ryker, Sawyer, Santino 
 
 
 Showing off their ginormous hedge balls. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Santino got to hang out with Aunt Casie today.
We had a good time as you can tell.
 
 
Well, that's life lately. I apologize again for being MIA for 14+ days. That's just ridic!
I'm surprised my sister hasn't killed me yet.
 
I will try to stay on track and keep this updated much more frequently than every 14 days.

Could be inappropriate (you have been warned)

This post could be inappropriate and disgusting to some.
You have been warned.
 
Grandma and Grandpa it's about going #2 and has nothing to do with Ryker.
So if you want to stop reading now, I totally understand.
But the stories are quite funny.
 
On Monday, I happen to run across THIS STORY (incase you are new here, click on that purple THIS STORY to read what I'm talking about). I honestly do not remember the last time I have laughed so hard. I think mostly because this has happened to me on more than one occasion, Lucas, ex-roomies, sisters, parents will confirm that. Also, I think this story might appeal more to the women only because I'm sure you have all been there before. Plus, I had a male friend read it at work and read it to Lucas when I got home. They didn't think it was near as funny as I or my girlfriends did. 
Enjoy!
 
Speaking about the story above.
It reminds me.
Along time ago, Oh, 6 years ago I guess....
 
I was at Luke's parents for maybe the 5th time. Had to have been some sort of holiday or special get together because everyone (brother in-laws, their significant others, mom, dad, nieces, you get the point) was there. It was the end of the day and everyone was sitting around the living room falling half asleep and loving the conversation.  Then BAM it hit me. I have to go #2 now. Like NOW!!! There are 2 bathrooms at my in-laws, one for the public (which is maybe a foot away from the living room), and one in their bedroom. This being the 5th time I had been there I didn't really feel comfortable using their "private" bathroom.
 
 So I very calmly got up and made my way to the restroom. I was in there longer than a #1 would take and I knew that everyone in the living room knew what I was doing. So when I finally finish, I search the entire bathroom for some sort of smell good spray, (remember bathroom is like a foot away from the living room) BUT find nothing, so I close the door behind me hoping no one uses it for awhile and very awkwardly return back to my seat.
 
 Not 2 seconds after I sit down. Luke says "Wow, that took you long enough" - Very embarrassed reply back "haha, yep" (face had to have been as red as tomato)- Then what does my wonderful husband (boyfriend at the time) do? He decides that he need to use the bathroom. He walks in and very loudly says as he quickly comes back out "OH, my goodness!!!"  Then grabs a lit candle off the top of the TV stand holds it up to his nose and returns back to the bathroom.
Everyone laughed, I laughed at them laughing at me, but I was dying on the inside with embarrassment.
 
Luckily Luke decided to stick it out with me, despite my gut problems, and I decided it's okay to embarrass your significant other every once in awhile. I am still trying to plot my revenge 6 years later!
Honey, someday you will be embarrassed.
Very very embarrassed! :P
 
 
Hope this wasn't TOO inappropriate.
AND
 Hope you got a laugh or two in today.

Zoo Weekend

Well, long time no bloggy...
 
My sister is getting pretty annoyed with me. Pretty sure she said to me yesterday. "If you're not going to write on your blog anymore then I'm going to quit checking it. Let me know when you post something." WOWZERS.... someone needs to take a chill pill I think... I mean does she not realize I am a busy busy person. I have things to do. A lot of things. Things that take time. Things that require my attention.
 
Don't worry. I won't bore you all with all the THINGS that I have to do on a daily basis. I mean seriously. It's totally boring but someones gotta do it.
 
With that said.
 
I will tell you how our weekend went.
 
Started off playing with my camera and a little trick I found on pintrest. Might not be the coolest thing ever invented but it was pretty neat.
 
Just a shape cut out of construction paper.
 
 
 
 
 
Next up was the zoo.
 
I, for one, LOVE the zoo. And I just KNEW Ryker would love it too. He talks about animals ALL THE TIME. So like any mother I couldn't WAIT to see the excitement in his eyes watching and looking at these animals.
 
BUT this trip to the zoo was pretty much a BUST.... a BUST! -- It was below 50 degrees and apparently they don't let all the animals out if it's below 50.
 
Elephants were put up.
Monkeys were put up.
Giraffes were put up.
Every primate was put up.
:(
 
But this IS what we got to see  Polar Bear sleeping, Lions sleeping, Tigers sleeping, African Dogs sleeping, Crocodiles sleeping, and Kangaroos hopping.
Oh and hungry Deer.
 
But even though the zoo was a BUST. It was nice hanging out with my family enjoying each others company. Would do it again in a heart beat.
 
Here's a few pictures of our adventure.

Polar Bear

 
"Scratching" his nose. Side story. Ryker and I were looking through these pictures when we got home from the zoo. I said "Ah Ryker, Nice Bear" he said "NO, Scratching his nose" :) cutest thing ever
 
Checkin out the Cheetahs -- well the top of their heads. They were sleeping.
 
The Lions.Very entertaining. Obviously.
 
 
"Wow, Look at the Lions. They are sleeping! EXCITING!"
 
 
So precious. Love you both!
 
DO. NOT. MESS. WITH. ME.
 
Pretty sure this was Ryker's favorite part of the day. He had so much fun feeding the deer.
 
 
Note: The sign on the right hand side of this picture. This family doesn't follow directions very well. :)
 
 
Thanks for listening to my rant about the zoo being a bust.
 
Can't wait to go again!

Wedding Weekend


This weekend was full of dancing, family, and memories.

It was a good time to be had by all.

We attended a wedding on Saturday night and Ryker got his groove on.

His Arm is moving so fast it's all blurry!
I got to dance with Ryker during the mother/son dance. What a great idea for a wedding. While the groom was dancing with his mom they invited all mothers and sons to come and join them. They did the same for the father/daughter dance.
 
 
I have told you about my friend Katie before... She is the one that just had the handsome little boy Santino. They got to dance during the mother/son dance as well. Presh!
 
 
What's a night out, without a family photo.
 
 
We had a wonderful weekend!
We got to spend Sunday with Luke's side of the family.
We mostly yelled at the TV while the chiefs played and listened to the kids chase each other around in circles.
Wouldn't have wanted the weekend to go any other way. Well except for a chiefs win. That would have been nice.
 
 
Oh...
 
Wanna know what happens if you poop your pants at Rykers school and you're a boy?
Yeah, Those are pink pants.
Would hate to see what they do to the girls!
Probably shave their heads!
 
I was unaware that he was out of extra pants... and apparently these were the only ones that fit him.
Lucas was not a happy camper when he saw his son in these pants.
Ryker loved them! Of course!
 
I laughed! :)
 
 
Hope you all have a fantastic week!
