The Camden Aquarium

This aquarium was amazing!

Here is a picture Beth took of Luke. I didn't realize she had the camera until Luke started to cry. "Beth did you drop the camera on Luke?"

her reply, "Kinda".

So serious for being eaten by a shark. At least her Daddy is trying to save her life.

Somehow this picture looks so inappropriate.

Oh, Now that is much better.

Beth is rocking the 80's hair.

Such a sweet moment.

We could have watched those fish for hours!

Wyatt stayed awake the whole time. He was totally mesmerized by the exhibits.

Homemaking?

Since we have moved I have not be able to get a routine established that allows me to feel like I am keeping up with the housework. Instead lately, I find myself doing laundry, cleaning and picking up the kitchen all day everyday. It has gotten tiring! I decided to do some research on how other stay at home mom organize their days. I came up with this so far...

Monday- Market (grocery store etc)

Tuesday- Tidy up

Wednesday- Wash (laundry and change sheets)

Thursday- Tidy up

Friday- Fun day (free to do whatever needs done or not)

Saturday- Spot clean

Sunday- Spot clean if needed

Please let me know how you organize your day!

Crayola Factory

We went to the Crayola factory as a surprise for Beth.

See below as I was able to catch her excited lil face.

(Ok well anyone who knows Beth right now knows that she is much too busy to take time out of her busy day for a photo shoot. And, if you manage to get her to stand still she will by no means look at the camera when you shoot.)

This place was a clean up crews worst nightmare. Glitter, glue, construction paper, streamers, ribbon, markers, crayons all over the place. But, we all had a great time.
Wyatt wanted his picture taken.

Beth watched how crayons were made with Daddy.
Did you know Crayola uses corn starch to adhere the wrapper to the crayon.

That way its totally edible...kinda.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a Happy New year! So it has been some time since3 the last post! I am sorry about the delay for all my fans. With Christmas and Family in town the time just got away from me. I was attempting to get several posts done today but, someone not to mentions any names, woke up from his nap and now thinks I should pay all attention to him :-)
Wyatt petting charlie, what a good sport.

My Christmas card wall, this was taken earlier in December and I have received several cards since then. Thank you to everyone who sent us a card. It really made us fill like we were getting to celebrate Christmas with our friends and family.

Here's looking at you kid

Have a holly jolly Christmas.

The unwrapping nap

The excitement of Christmas was just too much for Charlie.

While in Dayton on some leave, we went to the Officers Club for lunch. Grand-T was kind enough to get a few good Christmas photos for us! Thanks again!!

Cowboy Curtains

I went to the thrift store on base the other day and to my delight I found this vintage cowboys material. I really was wanting to find curtains for Wyatt's room, because honestly the blanket was a little ghetto! I figured 3-4 yards was at least enough material to do something. I then headed over to the BX and got some curtain rings and safety pins.
This is what I came up with. A simple no sew project. I would have sewn the curtains together but my sewing machine is in storage still. But, for now this will do.

Oh and yes, I did nail the curtain rings to the wall! haha a little hole filler will fix that later.
