Trucker Cookies
A good friend of mine and fellow mother of twins Dory makes beautiful cookie and cookie bouquets. So for DT’s birthday I decided to have some trucks made. She did a great job, so much detail and they taste excellent soft and buttery with a hint of almond, yum. DT was so surprised he really […]
I want brown eggs and beige eggs and blue eggs and green eggs
This week has been a surprise and a half. First things first it was my first official full week as a stay at home mom, then we got a flat screen tv, then we went to the zoo. We also purchased a dell desktop (thanks for all the suggestions) and it came in yesterday, then […]
Pie Pumpkins, Butternut Squash and Acorn Squash
The garden was in major need or grooming and we DT first weeded, picked, pulled everything except, the okra and peppers. This Texas heat is almost unbearably hott, oh who am I kidding it is unbearably hot. But somehow my sweet husband DT can tough it out to work on the garden. He loves his […]
Zoo, TV, and a Knee
One perk of being a Stay at home mom (SAHM) is that we can go to the zoo and mall at the drop of a hat in the middle of the week. So DT had off yesterday and on we went. It’s been about a year since our last zoo trip and a few things […]
Cutting Rice
Its that time of year again, the farmers are in their fields cutting rice. My dad and grandpa were busy last Saturday cutting rice and we brought the boys by to ride with Poppy (my dad) in the combine. About a few days before they started cutting we had a big rain storm and it […]
"Family" water play

Corpus Christi – The Aquarium
continued…. part 1 and part 2 So over 2 weeks have gone by and I forgot to post about the last leg of our trip at Corpus to the Texas State Aquarium. The boys loved riding on the elevator, and asked very politely for this picture to be taken. As a rule of thumb that […]
How well do you know your spouse? DT remix
Remember long long ago I did a How well do you know your spouse, and answered in all honestly about my hubby Double Trouble (DT.) Well I figured it would be pretty cool if he did one about me. He was reluctant at first I told him, have fun with it, be witty, make um […]
Fruits of our labors
I am not posting weekly garden pictures this week, because we’ve had some rather exciting new that I had to share, so this post will be a discombobulation of our weekly happenings. Oh also remember I warned you on my picture obsession? This post will not disappoint. We’ve had a rather fruitful week yet again, […]
New Camera = Tons of Pictures
Did I mention I got a new camera for my birthday its a Nikon D 40 and I am obsessed in love with it. I have taken more pictures this weekend than I have in my entire life, OK so that’s probably and exaggeration but seriously I am taking picture of everything. No one is […]
