Home - Cute - Home

My house in Ohio is so stinkin' cute! I mean, it really is. My mom has done an amazing job with it.

This is a chain link counter my sister made for my mom for her to count how many weeks until Paul gets home from his mission!
So clever to put it in an awesome, huge jar.

This artwork was done my Grandma Wilson.

I always hate leaving this house, because I have so many memories in it. It really was a great home to grow up in.

Awkward & Awesome Thursday

I'm not sure what THIS event would be categorized under, probably neither.
But my little hometown of Zanesville, Ohio made it into the headlines.
I am super sad that all those animals had to be killed, but fully agree with the decision on the Muskingum County law enforcement in their actions. 
Boo to you Terry Thompson for being the sole reason all those animals died.


Awkward
- Losing my car in the parking lot. This happens too often.
- Hubster's phone sending text messages to random people in his phone
- Seeing a sheriff badge duct taped to the podium and the Muskingum County Sheriff gave a press release. I mean, really? Someone couldn't have made a little loop and stuck it on the back?
- Scooting myself along a big metal gate to avoid stepping in the mud in 4" wedge heels for family pictures. Then climbing over the fence. Although I made it, so I guess that is awesome.
- Feeding Chubbs one morning, half asleep and then realizing he did in fact manage to leak out of his diaper and pee on my lap. Good morning to me.


Awesome
- These videos (one, two and three) made by two of my buddies for the Weber State University campus stores
- Pumpkin patches
- Hot chocolate...or Ho Choch and my old roomies and I used to say it
- While driving to work, seeing a super old lady (like in her 80's) walking down the street with hot pink Skullcandy headphones.
- My little bro's turning their mission papers in!
- My little man, Chubbs, turned ONE!! Holy crap!
- And the Hubster had a bday too.!

Lions and Tigers and Bears...OH MY!!

It is rare that people have heard of my hometown Zanesville, Ohio. 
But I'm pretty sure if you have been paying attention to the news last night and today you may have heard about 50 exotic wild animals getting loose? 

Yup. Happened in good ole Zanesville.

or this report...


and if you watch this report below I will clarify for those of you who don't speak "Ohioan"...
Woof = WOLF

ducks and a fire...

While still in Ohio we went and fed ducks. 
They were a little overbearing. Bless my sweet dad for scaring the mean ones away. We instructed Munchkin to only feed the ducks in the water.
That will show those mean ducks on the sidewalk...take that!

Then we had a fire, roasted marshmallows and made little pies (take wooden dowels, put rolls from a can over the end, roast and then fill with apple filling...oh so good).

Photobucket

Then Chubbs woke up and decided he didn't want to sleep anymore, but wanted to join us...
Photobucket

and how could I say no to face like his. 
Photobucket

And the fireflies were out. I didn't get a decent picture of them, but Munchkin sure had a blast catching them.

pool day...

One day we decided to go to the pool. 
We forgot swim suits and water wings, so we had to make a trip to the store for that. Then realized Munchkin needed flip flops that could get wet and some toys of course. 
He picked out transformer bottoms and he couldn't have just one gun...
Photobucket
The water was freezing but I had Chubbs so I got to take him to the shallow kids area where the water was warmer. We will pretend it was warmer solely because of the depth and bright sun.

the Zoo...

We went to the Columbus Zoo while visiting Ohio and it was awesome. 
I'm sure we walked about 17.689 miles while we were there, but it was sure fun.

This turtle sits like this for hours waiting for something to swim in his mouth. He has a thing on his tongue that moves so fish think it's a worm.
