Time to play Catch Up!

We have been soooo busy I don't even remember what I have posted and what I haven't so IF I have already posted these I am sorry but better to be safe than sorry since I print these blogs out into books for my family! Anyways I went out to Haroldsens Farm and picked me a BUNCH of  Raspberries for some of my most favorite don't want to use anything else Raspberry Jam! Ever since I was a little girl we would go to my Grandma Cox's where she would have her YUMMY homemade bread, butter, and of course Raspberry Jam! So I want to keep that tradition alive. I can't find the picture and I am very bummed about it, BUT my sweet Sister-in-law Jodi came over and helped me make some bread. I couldn't believe it it actually turned out and it was SOOOO good. I have tried for 6 years almost to make dough rise in this house and we (Doug too) have never been successful until now. It is such an easy recipe and I can't even BEGIN to tell you how incredibly yummy it is! So thank you Jodi!  

 How cute is my little helper! Please ignore the dishes in the sink. Apparently something exploded all over the Microwave food cover!
                                     

JAYDEN!!!! I didn't think I would be posting this post for a few years but it finally happened my little bald baby got his first haircut at 16 months!!! I could not BELIEVE how good he did. He just sat there and let Kylee do her thing. We love Kylee at our house she does such an amazing job plus she comes to my house even better!

 Look at this handsome boy! Love him!!!

 

                                     
 All done. Can you tell a difference? Not really cause it was like only 5 hairs got cut!

 KARSTON: I decided Karston needed to have some fun and run some energy off. Well some days it worked great some days not so much. He was SOOOO funny to watch. He would get there and do really well for the first little bit then slowly his energy would dwindle down and we would see him laying on the turf rolling around or sitting in the net or making a chain with some of his little soccer buddies who also didn't care about playing a soccer game. Everyone probably LOVED it when they saw that they were playing our team because, Well our team never really had the attention span to play a full game. One by one they slowly left the field to go sit with their mom and dad. It was great fun!

 If nothing else came out of it he was pretty darn cute out there!

So there are just a few updates of what has been going on in Purcellville. As always there will be more to come so stay tuned!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! Okay so I know that I am late on posting my Halloween pics but oh well! We LOVE figuring out what to dress up as. This year we decided to go with the best scene from hopefully you guessed it "Mary Poppins" Step in Time! Doug was Bert, I was that Poppins woman, and the boys were little chimney sweeps! I have to say so far THIS costume is my favorite! Well I guess it is right up there with Scooby Doo! We did a pretty good job there too!

 I was TERRIBLE at taking pictures this year. I only got this one of my new little niece Bryndyn. Isn't she just so dang cute! Cutest little lamb EVER!

Anyways we went to our families houses and pigged out on food at each place. The kids also went with Grammie and Grampie to their Trunk or Treat which in my opinion has to be the BEST thing ever. You are done Trunk or Treating in like 30 min and you get just enough candy! It was a great time and we can't wait to figure out what we will be next year!
