Monday Madness!

While Anderson was off with his dad catching two Steelhead and shooting one pheasant, Cayden stayed home. When Payson and Macy came over Cayden got an idea... Take one roll of toilet paper...
One enthusiastic volunteer...
And wrap away.

I was impressed that Cayden first asked if it was OK to use an entire roll of toilet paper for their little game.I said it was fine as long as every single bit of TP was picked up.
So what do you do with all that toilet paper when you are done making mummies?

Why you wet it down and form a giant TP snowball of course!
Hours later when I ran into the kids bathroom to grab something this is what I found...

The Icing on The Cake

As much as I would love to take credit for these cute photos of Branson, I can't. Anderson not only let him lick the edges of the frosting bowl but he helped himself to my most prized material possession...my camera. So besides cute shots of the youngest Cazier getting a sugar high...
the other news that is finger lickin' good... is that I am now a part of a digital Scrapbooking CT (creative team)!
I get to design digital scrapbook pages for Scraps-n-Pieces!
I am so excited to take this on and I feel honored to be chosen. I have started a new blog to highlight my hobbies so take a peek at Just For Fun...A Place for Scraps & Photos.
As soon as I get the hang of this I want to start offering digital freebies. This may not make any sense to most of you but I am ecstatic!

Fall Photo Shoot

I was honored when Danyelle asked if I would take Abby's photos for her baptism. They came over on a gorgeous November day and while Abby was putting on her dress I snuck outside with Oliver to snap a few pictures. Take two very cute kids and a beautiful fall day and this is what you get...












Now if only my kids would be so cooperative when I go to take their picture!

CAST that Splint Aside!

On Thursday Branson turned 2 years old!On Thursday Branson got a handsome blue cast to replace the nasty ole' splint.

I would love to say that on Thursday Branson was happy and sweet and the perfect Birthday Boy...but he wasn't.
On Thursday Night he did love opening presents...presents that were all "floor friendly."

He got some Elmo DVD's, new books, a cars and trucks sound puzzle,
and his favorite...
the Fisher Price Race and Crash Speedway.
I had seen this in the store before and had decided that it was a toy I would never purchase. (When will I learn never to use that word?) It didn't require enough imagination or creativity on the child's part. But after a week of not being able to run and jump and ride around on his tractor, and thinking about the l...o...n...g four weeks ahead...this toy was exactly what Branson (and Mom) needed!



Need I say more?

What does Branson's splint and Branson's Mom Have in Common?

They are both becoming completely unraveled. So Branson broke his leg last Friday but the orthopedic surgeon didn't want to see him until this Thursday. They wanted to be absolutely sure that the swelling was down. I failed to mention to the receptionist, as she gave me the date of his appointment, that this would land on his second birthday. So besides having to wait forever to get a cast on his leg the pore little guy has to spend his birthday in a doctors office. We have been keeping one of John's socks on the leg so Branson can't mess with it, but today he beat me to the punch. I heard him saying "Ow....owwww...ow.....owweeey." When I came around the corner he had completely dismantled his splint and all the fluff that goes around it. If you think this looks bad, you should see all my bookshelves that are at ground level.

November New Era

We haven't received our Church Magazines yet for this month. It seems that November is always a tad late due to it being a General Conference Issue. But Scott Ashton looked on line and on page 9 of The New Era is a picture of the most handsome boys I have ever seen!(Anderson 3rd one in from the left. Cayden far right.)
I really can't believe it! I always wanted to be in the New Era when I was a teenager. I guess I will have to live vicariously through my kids. And I will be eagerly awaiting for the actual magazine to arrive in the mail!
