Funny things said

The other day after church I took the girls to Once Upon A Child. We arrived a little early so I decided to go and get the girls a quick snack to hold them over till lunch. There was a White Castles very close, I thought that would be fine since they have little hamburgers. I pulled up to the window and ordered 3 single sliders 2 with no onion or pickles. When pulling around to the window Gracie asked me why I hadn't ordered anything. I told her I did. She said. "Well did you order in Spanish?" ☺

October wrap up

Not sure if I am been busy or just not motivated. I have been neglecting my blog because I just haven't had the extra energy. But I missed you all and thought I would catch you up.

My Birthday(s) were all great. My husbands side of the family through me a great birthday. It was called "An evening in the field" You all know by now that my husband grew up on a farm, well this also comes with eating a lot of family meals in the field out of the back of a pick up. My SIL thought it would be nice to recreate this for me. It was so much fun and kind of hope we do it every year. My BIL, her husband Brian, did a nice post that I will add here. You should check it out. Thanks Butlers for all you did, I had a wonderful time.

The only other big event was Halloween. We took the girls to our Church on Saturday. I don't have a lot to say because it was kind of a dud. I don't say this to be mean but since my girls are 4 and 3 they honestly could only do 4 games and 2 of the games I had to "help" Lilly. Good news I did, I mean Lilly, won a fish! His name is Hal short for Halloween. The girls love it. I think Danny is hoping we keep the fish and get rid of the cat. Or hoping the dog eats the cat. ( j/k)

Maybe next year I could volunteer to help think of games for the younger children. But in all actuallality we thank them for their efforts.

Halloween night was awesome. We took the girls to my dad's neigboor hood to go TOT. All of my immediate family met at my dads, we had Awesome Chicken chilli, cornbread, and my mom's famous pumpkin bars and a pumpkin roll.

My Dad and Lilly





After dinner we went TOT. Gracie of course loved it. She took charge and wanted to ring every door bell. Poor Lilly, after the second house she asked for her stroller. She is tiny and always feels she needs to remind us she has tiny legs. She got carried a lot.

Gracie was Sleeping Beauty and Lilly was Tinkerbelle

Aunt Marica helped a lot! She is an awesome Aunt

Gracie asked if the skeleton was real, still not sure she checked it out with her wand.

After we went TOT we sat outside and passed out candy to the rest of the neighboor hood.






October was great. Now I am excited for November and Thanksgiving! Yummy.

The New Mom Jeans

Today we were allowed to wear jeans to work if we paid $5. All the money was going to the Breast Cancer walk some of our employees are participating in tomorrow. We all love jean day so of course I participated. Well I also had to be at work early today to open the front desk which means I work up at 5:15am. I only got 6 hours of sleep.

At 12noon I took my lunch break and went to use the little girl's room. And in there I noticed that my jeans were just horrible, I hated the way the looked on me and the way it made my figure look. They weren't flattering at all, they were actually quite boxy. I remember them being a boot cut, I didn't realize though that was term for boyish. As I am stretching, which by the way is completely normal thing for me to do in the bathroom, squats, leg lifts, a little Tae boe, Anyway that is when I realized...................I had on freaking MAN jeans. Are you serious, I have on Danny's Jeans? Which actually is quite awesome because if anyone has ever met Danny he is a little on the skinny side.

I was so embarrassed that I immediately told at least 5 of my friends, who were also amazed. One of them said, Hey at least he wasn't wearing yours. Now that I would like to see! Nevermind, I wouldn't

So about a month ago, my mom made a silly fashion error and wore her shrug upside down, to a very nice restaurant. We all made fun of her and I said to her quote " How could you do that and not notice" Touche Breanne Touche.

Note to self, no matter what time you get up in the morning, please make sure you grab your own jeans!

My Birthday, Bonfires and Books

2 weekends ago we celebrated my birthday with my side of the family. We had a bonfire, roasted marshmallows made dough boys and ate chili. We started the weekend off by attending the Franklin City Fall Festival. This is a cute picture of the girls with Danny, they thought they were hiding from me but I had my camera ready. You should have heard their squeals (especially Danny :) )

My mom has a tradition where all of us have to take a picture with our cake and candles. 28 about sent to Pumpkin Pie on Fire.

Did you see that cute little girl trying to blow out momma's candles.....

One of my presents was a Nook. I was so excited. I still haven't quite figured everything out but I love it. I am having a hard time figuring out what book to buy. I definitely want to add the KJV Bible but would like suggestions on anything else you think I need to have!





Here I am roasting a dough boy. Thanks to the Butlers for that Tradition. It is basically just a biscuit wrapped around a stick, toast it in the fire then add butter and cinnamon and sugar. Delish!

Lilly kept trying to roast a marshmallow but the smoke was too intense for her, so my sweet aunt shielded her eyes for her.

Here is my mom and pops. They sure know how to throw a great party.

Mommy!

As you can see from her hoodie and sun-kissed tan, she just got back from Hawaii.

By the end of the night the smoke was definitely playing with my eyes too. This is the best of 3 pictures.

On my real birthday my work friends took me out to lunch to Scotty's Brewhouse. The have the most amazing Fried Dill Pickles. Yummy. Well the servers also brought me out a birthday ice cream with a candle. Thankfully they didn't sing or embarrass me!

This weekend we are going to hang out with Danny's side. We, Elaine, are cooking in cast iron skillets over the fire. I am making my hot apple cider and carmel apple salad. I will post those pictures later. Have a great weekend everyone. P.s. I am going to the Colts game on Sunday. Yeah Yeah I know, they are 4-0. But people I am a true Colts fan, not some band wagoner! hehe
