"Pretty Pumpkin Painting with Peytie!"

"Try saying that 5 times fast!"

Oh my... it's the one armed girl!

Oh, shooo... there's the other arm. ;o)

Mommy, Peytie & Nana Karla among a mess of paint.

(Think we maybe could've cleaned off the table?) Ha Ha!

Such a serious artist...




I'm amazed that she didn't have her toungue sticking out in this pic.

She was doing it the whole time! She's definitely a Vrbas! LOL!

Finally... an update!

I know, I know... it's been a while since the last update. Things have been pretty crazy around here lately. I haven't been taking a lot of pics either. However, Papa Jerry took these the other night at their house. Grammy Tami watched Peyton on Thursday afternoon for us & when I got there to pick her up, she was pretty fascinated with Grammy's knee high panty hose. It was so funny! She refused to take them off & get dressed so we just went home in them. On the short trek home (the whole 3 houses down) she kept telling me "I'm pretty, huh mommy?" It was adorable! Thanks for the pics Papa!

Sorry so late bud! We love you & hope your 2nd b-day was great!

JUST SOME GOOD 'OL PUNKIN' PICKIN'!!

The Fall Blast Crew went on our 2nd annual 'Punkin Pickin' Trip. Brian & Heidi Wright so graciously, have let us come out & raid their HUGE pumpkin patch now for 2 years. We have a lot of fun & really appreciate it. It's such a blast! Thanks guys!!

I think I found the perfect one mom!

Gary, Paige, Nana, Karson, Kari & Peytie pickin' punkins!

Such a BIG pumpkin patch, yet such a TINY girl!

Yep, I'm thinkin' this is the one!

YAY!!

The group, after picking... we filled 3 pick-ups with pumpkins and some really cool gourds too!

Karson & Peyton playing with their favorite thing in the world... DIRT!

Miss Paige Marie

Lookin' pretty ornery, girls! ;o)

An afternoon at the lake!

Last Saturday we went out to the Trenton Lake. A bunch of our friends were camping at Macklin Bay for the weekend and we were invited to join them. We decided that instead of camping, we would just go out for awhile on Saturday & just hang out with everyone. It was a lot of fun even tho' the wind was horrible.

Mindy & the kids playin' a mean game of tetherball!

I think she was trying to show them how to do jumping jacks...

All the kids playing

More tetherball!

Ok, this has got to be the funniest pic! I was also trying to show the kids how to do jumping jacks. (If I only exercised on a regular basis, I wouldn't have been so winded after this! LOL!)

And a' 1 and a' 2...

We had a fish fry that nite for supper. It was soooo good! Here, Karla & Gary are fryin' em up!

Paige & Peytie... best buds!

Paige is such a ham... she LOVES to have her picture taken.

Beth Ann... such an adorable diva!

Peyton had a blast on this little tractor... it was just her size & no petals - that was the best part!

Pics from the weekend...

I realized the other day that there are no pics of just Joe & I since Peyton was born. So, I decided to get the babysitter to take a couple before we went out the other nite. I guess they turned out alright. ??
