Pumpkin Fun!

So this past Saturday we headed out to the pumpkin patch! There was so much for everyone to do there. Alexia got to ride the ponies, Shelby got to pet a mini donkey, We ate snow cones and picked out the "perfect" pumpkins....

After the pumpkin patch we headed over to my parents house to carve our pumpkins! Pumpkin carving isn't my thing lol. Im not as creative as the rest of my family! :) but it was fun none-the-less. We had pumpkins with faces, a kitty pumpkin, a skeleton pumpkin, a spider, spongebob(guess who's that was!), a wolf, and then Shelby's little pumpkin said "Tubbs". They all came out sooooo good. Too bad they didn't last long...they are alread shrivling up since its been like 87 degrees out here in October!! The important thing is that we had tons of fun and got to spend time with our family.

Finished Products!!

So, as a young kid I became accustomed to not being able to find my name on anything. I mean they always had "Sheri" but it was rarely spelled the way that I spell my name. So on the off chance that I ever did find anything whether it be a trinket, pen or whatever I always bought it...and still do. Well Alexia is going to have the same problem. Poor kid, I have yet to find ANYTHING with her name on it. The always have alexIS or alexA but never A-L-E-X-I-A. Well lo and behold I was grocery shopping at WalMart and came across french fries with the brand name ALEXIA!! I thought is was so funny that I had to take a picture and post it! Of course we bought the bag lol maybe now her name will gain some popularity!!

Ear Piercing!

Ok so im just starting this whole blogging thing! Seems to be the thing to do now-a-days! I think that its a good idea for friends and family to see what's going on in our life! Anyway, I thought this might be a good first post! Last weekend the girls got their ears pierced. Yay!! Alexia did awesome, not even a tear. Shelby on the other hand...well she screamed bloody murder! It was so sad to see her so upset, but once we gave her the bottle she was fine. All was calm again! Here are some pics of the fancy girls
