Dinner Time Prayers

We have a tradition at our house every single night.  We sit down at the dinner table, Ethan says the blessing and then we all eat.  I have been wanting get pictures of him saying the blessing because has the most adorable prayer face.  He loves to say blessings for the entire family and we love it even more.  Another dinner time tradition is our yorkie, Sadie Mae.  It didn't take her long to discover Ethan's messy eating habits.  She would sit under his high chair while he ate waiting on him to drop her a crumb or two....and the beat goes on with Addi Grace!  Dinner time is one of my favorite parts of the day.  If your family doesn't sit at the table each evening for dinner, I would strongly encourage you to try it one time.  It is a great way to come together as one unit and learn about each other day.  LH&K Always!

Kirby, It's More Than Just A Vaccum

We went to Aunt Meisha and Uncle Brad's house this weekend.  We had plans to stay all weekend until Mommies work called her Saturday to work.  They guys came home and picked up the big kids (Ethan, Bennett and Adrian) and took them to deer camp while they sighted their rifles in before we left.  Modern gun season opens this coming Saturday.  It doens't mean much to you right now Son, but in a couple of years it's going to mean the world to your Daddy when he can take you with him all the time.  LH&K Always!

Our First Halloween As A Fam of Four

I made her tutu! My first one ever and it turned out better than I thought it would!

I looked like I swallowed a pumpkin last halloween. I was 2 weeks from having Addi Grace! She is such a blessing and wonderful addition. I think we'll keep her!

Ethan with his girlfriend, Maddie Grace! How ironic! We approve, she is so stinking adorable!

We had a wonderful Halloween this year. Maddie Grace and her family came over for a visit before all the trick-or-treating festivities kicked in full gear. It was really slow this year for candy takers. I guess the H1N1 outbreak has everyone as nervous as it does me. Cousins AJ and Grayce came over to play later that night. We had a great time with everyone! LH&K Always!

Deer Season Has Begun

Daddy and Ethan with the first buck of the season
I can just see the two of these boys in 20 years holding their bucks so I can take their picture. I only hope they stay the bestest of friends throughout their lives.
Ethan loves helping his Daddy do even the grossest tasks.

This was a hilarious day in our lives. Daddy had gutted the deer in the woods and brough it back. When he pulled it out of the back of the truck all Ethan could do was walk around the deer in circles saying "Oh My Gosh" repeatedly. I'm not sure if he was confused or in shock. Either way, it was so stinking cute. Ethan got to go hunting with Daddy the day before he killed this big buck. That was the boys first official deer hunting excursion! LH&K Always!

Hay Is For Horses

The GANG!
Addi Grace playin in the hay!

They look real excited, ha!

One of our best family pics yet! Ethan and Daddy chees'n

Ethan and Mommy cheesing!

We went on our first hayride Saturday night. It was so much fun until Addi Grace had to leak through her diaper during the ride and I wasn't prepared, go figure! I am always over-prepared and over plan everything so how did this happen? Oh well, we had a great time anyway roasting hot dogs and listening to the Razorbacks ALMOST beat Florida. It's pretty tought beating Florida when they pack their own Ref's. LH&K Always!

Can You See Me Mommy??

I love her excited face
Daddy always lets you blow his calls

Could you look any cuter???

You have the best smile!

Daddy has you convinced that when you put on his camo nobody can see you. It is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. LH&K Always!

Suckers, Wipes and Toilet Paper Oh My!

Tough girl

Caught her in the act!

Addi Grace has been such a trooper through all this congestion so I thought she would enjoy a sucker! We are still eating on the suckers Uncle Jason got Ethan for his birthday last year!

This is what happens to a little girl when she runs out of sucker!

she loves to push her pack-n-play around the house

and she pulls the wipes out of the box as fast as she can

I keep the camera within arms reach all the time. These pictures are the reason why. I catch the two of you doing things I can't believe your little minds think of. Addison loves pulling wipes, tissue or toilet paper out like a mad woman. She can empty a box of tissue before I can get across the room. I'm not sure if she is curious as to how they come out or that they come at all together. I wish I knew. LH& K Always!!!!

Ms. Mischievous!

This picture says it all about her little personality. She is so curious about everything. I even caught her reaching deep into the box of 24 dr. peppers to see what was in it. She cracks us up!
LK&K Always!

Just One Of Many Fights

He is giving her the "don't you even think about it" eye!

he gets so aggrevated when he is trying to get dressed and she tries taking his shoes. My girl OVES shoes already, just like her momma.

Ethan won the tug of war, this time

Ethan gets himself dressed each morning. Now I don't let him pick his cloths out yet because he would wear the same Thomas shirt every day but he does dress himself. Now that Addi Grace is mobile she can't help herself. She loves shoes and loves chewing on the rubber soles of tennis shoes. Ethan has to battle her everytime he tries putting his shoes on. I have to get this fight on video before it's to late. LH&K Always!

Hogs vs Texas A&M

Tracy and Addi Grace

Addi Grace found her a new buddy with Avery.

Avey was lil miss mother hubbard :)

Addi Grace terrorizes Ethan, Ethan is quick to respond with a "no, baby girl" and then...

she gets upset. She has such a pitiful look when she cries.
AJ, Ethan and Addi Grace playing before the game

We love football season. We had a football watch party at our house Saturday evening. Daddy smoked a bunch of meat on the Big Green Egg, we put the blow up bouncer in the back yard for the kids to play in and we had such a great time visiting with everyone. Have I told you how much we love football watch parties??? LH&K Always!
