A Good Laugh

Do you have those certain pictures that every time you look at them you can't help but laugh hysterically?? Well, for me, this is one of those pictures! This is my niece Courtney and she loves, loves, loves this mustache. She loves it so much that she even keeps it in the freezer! Her facial expressions absolutely kill me; too funny!

A few observances for November 12th, 2010:
  1. We have little pedal tractors in the store for Christmas. I learned today that no matter how bad I want to, I will never be able to reach the pedals and race through our showroom. BUT--I can use my feet instead and their should be pedal races for big kids!! Like me!
  2. Rainy days, like we're having today, make me want to curl up on my couch with a good book and hot tea.
  3. White trucks and mud don't mix.
  4. Christmas is only 43 days away!

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! If you're headed out for opening morning of deer season tomorrow, please be safe, and wear your orange!!

Father Daughter


I love, love, love pictures! Dad and I took this picture at our family reunion back in September. He's a pretty neat guy--even if he does refuse to change my oil in my car or fix my tire.
This fall is starting to finally wind down. There are just a few guys left in the field and I'm loving it! Last year at this time we were about 50% done...working on the combines when it's cold and snowy is ZERO fun!
Thanksgiving is in 22 days, which is just amazing to me! And before we know it, Christmas will be here too. This time of year I am thankful to have an amazing that family that cares about each other so much. There's a lot of little things we take for granted every day and it's important to remember them---on good days and bad days.
Here's wishing you an amazing "early" holiday season!!!

Sea Urchins


These are my two most favorite girls in the whole wide world!!! Channing is 8 and Courtney is 12. Therefore, I was like 8 when Courtney was born, right? Ya, that math works out.
Ha! I wish! I was 15 when Courtney was born and man was that a fun day! There's something about your sister having a baby that makes life very surreal. I had babysat a lot in my teen years and loved little kids, but when Courtney was born it was totally different. She was a part of me, she was family...and it was awesome! Court is in 6th grade now and so incredibly smart! She cracks me up all the time and has a great sense of humor. She loves, loves shoes!! She may never wear any of them, but man does she love them!
Channing is my buddy and has been since she was about 3. She was adopted at 3 and I have no recollection of her before that. Ha ha! Just kidding! She despised females when she was really little and absolutley LOVED my dad (her grandpa) . Sometimes she would warm up to me and in would walk dad and out of my arms she would go! She still loves her grandpa, but Aunt Nick is pretty cool too! Channing is in 3rd grade and has the reasoning of a 35 year old. She cracks me up with anything that comes out of her mouth! She also just shot her first deer recently while hunting with her dad!
I love both of them so very much and feel so lucky to have them in my life!
