Peyton's Class Field Trip

Peyton's class went down to the state museum and I had the opportunity to tag along. We had a great time learning about sea animals, outer space, and dinosaurs among other things. Enjoy the pics!

Pics for Father's Day

For the Father's Day this year I had the kid's pictures taken in Sooner gear. Brian also got a signed football for Christmas that I had to sneak out of the house but we were successful and got some really cute shots.

Makenna's 1st Haircut

I took Makenna to Snipits for her first haircut. She not only got her hair cut but styled with 2 ponytails, a first time certificate and we got her to take home her cut curls. She was not happy one bit about having that cape on her but it was nothing that a Dum Dum sucker and an animal cookie wouldn't fix! All in all she did very well. And now since her hair has been shaped up, her curls are curly again. We even purchased some moose for her. She's such a girlie girl.

Why I love CVS

I love CVS because tonight I went and bought 3 packs of Pampers Cruisers for only $2.16 per package! They have their jumbo packs on sale for 8.99 and thanks to of my favorite saving money blogs (here and here) I found out that this is a non advertised item that earns $5.00 in Extra Care Bucks per pack with a limit of 3. I read the discussion board and some where saying that the ECB's weren't printing automatically. I told this to the sales clerk and he just took my word for it and at the end of the transaction, he printed me a $15.00 ECB receipt. Within my transaction I used a $4 off $20 purchase coupon and a Pampers coupon and it brought the price down. I would have done better if a) I would have had 2 more Pampers coupons and b) if I would have had some ECB's on hand from a previous purchase. BUT, I'm not complaining by any means! You know what else? The Pampers coupon I had wasn't even for Cruisers. It was for Easy Ups. THIS is why I love CVS!

Kate and Levi

Two dear friends of mine had babies on Friday.

Karen and James had a baby girl-Katherine Elizabeth aka Kate at 8:17 am.
She was 8lbs 6 oz and 20" long.

Shannon and Alison gave birth to a little boy-Levi Allen.

He was 6lbs 11oz and 19" long.

Both families are doing well and I was eating up getting to hold them both. Baby fever is definitely on! Should we have a third??? What do you think?

Bird Family

As soon as I put up hanging baskets on our front porch...we had birds. I used to not like them but now I find their process very intriguing. The only thing I don't like about it is I find it hard to water my flowers. Brian helped me take down the baskets so that I could water them and of course mama bird flew out. I took the opportunity to take some pictures of the future children. I'll have to see if I can get brave to get some of the young'ins when they're born.

8th Anniversary

Today is our 8th wedding anniversary. It's been a wonderful 8 years together and Brian showed his love and appreciation by giving me diamond earrings. They are beautiful...in a trillion cut just like my wedding ring. He surprised me this morning by bringing Makenna into the bedroom and putting her into bed with me. I noticed something a little odd and then it dawned on me that she was wearing diamonds instead of her little silver studs. What a wonderful morning! He also had flowers delivered to my office and took me out to lunch.

***
Brian, I love you so much! You're the best husband in the whole wide world...and not because you gave me diamonds...although that always helps! ha ha....
They say sometimes you just know...I'm sure glad that we did! Happy Anniversary!
