Cell phone free tractors

February 16, 2011

The boys will be happy for days, since we got to go ride on the tractors. Poppy and Pop-po were plowing up their rice fields to prepare for this year’s crop. And of course we took full advantage of the tractor rides. For some reason I find it funny when farmers (aka my dad and grandpa) always [...]

Oh, Christmas Tree!

December 8, 2010

This Christmas the boys are 3 and very interested in helping decorate their own tree. I simply set out their ornaments and they started decorating. They took the job very seriously and loved hanging the ornaments, wherever they would stay. Which resulted in some unique decorating tricks. While they were decorating their tree I was [...]

No Shame

December 1, 2010

At Thanksgiving on DT’s families side this year, Aunt Uba (DT’s sister) had the wonderful idea of bringing a karaoke machine for the kids to play with. Little H had lots of fun giving it a go, and lots of moral support from Little W, who is currently laughing at him. Did that stop H? [...]

A Tractor Birthday Party

November 17, 2010

We celebrated the boy’s 3rd birthday last weekend with a tractor themed party. We rented this “train” that you pull behind a lawnmower.

Witches, Monsters, and Cowboys.

Our Halloween started Saturday with a fun trip to the carnival. We played lots of games and visited with friends. We even ran into a super Witch! Little W was not to thrilled about this witch (Brooke) so she had to make a quick exit. Then for Halloween the boys dressed up as cowboys. They [...]

A little this and that

October 13, 2010

I just wanted to share a little bit of this and that for our recent happenings around the house. It’s October a busy and fun time for us. After all is pumpkin and Halloween season, and luckily for me my boys love it all just as much as I do. The other day I was [...]

Pumpkin Patch Fun

October 12, 2010

Our pumpkin patch was this week, and we took the little sweethearts to pick some pumpkins and take some great photos. They mostly cooperated and loved the unusual pumpkins. But the sun was super bright. But we got a couple good pictures none the less. And the tractor was a big hit. Got to switch [...]

Howdy, y’all! Welcome to my blog world. I am Sweet Pea, a 20-something Texas native and a newlywed…well, almost. We wed May 2006. Shortly after we were blessed with identical twins boys born November 2007.
