Cricut Machine

This is it!! This is such a cool machine. My first attempt you can barely see is the word Thanks. I'm going to have sooooo much fun with this when I can get all my scrapbooking stuff out of storage. Cant wait to start scrapping again.

First picture with new camera

First picture taken with our new camera is of this handsome grandpa.

Early Christmas Presents

Santa came early to our house. Ron and I both got a 20% discount coupon for one item at Walmart. They give these to their employees every year, probably the only good thing about working there. Just kidding.
So what we used it for is a new digital camera, yyyeeeeaaahh!!! And...........I got a new toy to add to my scrapbooking supplies. A Cricut Machine!
Those of you that scrapbook know what i'm talking about and those of you that dont have no idea and I dont know how to explain it to you exept that its really cool!
So here are some pictures with my, oops, our new camera.

Alabama Goblins

Yyeeaaah! Finally I was able to upload this picture of Hillary and Britney. Bat Girl and Goth Ann (raggedy ann) These cute girls also hounting the neighborhood, while Mom and Dad sit in the garage handing out candy to visiting goblins
Thanks for the picture, Sheri!

Zion National Park

Isnt this beautiful? Just one of the many mountain views in Zion National Park. Again my camera doesnt do it justice but you get the idea.

Ron and Gram at Zion

Ron and Gram and Russell, the bridge we were standing by was closed. It was not baricated very well so we had to keep a close eye on Gram and Russell so that they wouldnt fall over the edge.

Gram and Irene at Zion

Even Gram enjoyed the day out, she didnt like the cool breeze but I think she had a nice day out too. You can see the leaves turning colors, nothing like what I saw in Maine, but it was pretty anyway.

A day at Zion National Park

We spend the day at Springdale today, which is just outside of Zion National Park. Our Realtor was doing an open house so we had to make ourself scarce for a few hours, and since it was such a beautiful day we thought it would make a nice drive.
We had lunch at the Bumbleberry Inn and stopped and took some pictures.

Yeahh, I can post pictures again!

Tennessee Goblins

These are the Tennessee goblins, ready to haunt the neighborhood, well at least the trunks at church anyway.

Trae, Izabelle and Mattie

This is such a great Picture of Mattie, Trae and Izabelle that I had to post it.

Mattie's first Halloween

Mattie's first Halloween, nothing scary about this one. I think she is cute and cuddly dont you?

Pumpkin Cobbler

This is a great recipe and just delicious. We had it at the womens retreat and when word got around how good it was, it was gone in no time. I'd like to share it with you.

3 eggs beaten, 15oz can pumpkin, 12oz can evaporated milk, 1 cup sugar, 1/8 tsp salt, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp. ground ginger, 1Tbs vanilla, 18oz pkg yellow cake mix, 1 1/4 cups margerine melted (I used butter, even better) 1 cup chopped nuts.

Mix the first 8 ingredients together, pour into an ungreased 13x9" baking pan. Sprinkle cake mix over the top, drizzle with margarine. Bake at 350 for 25 min. top with nuts and bake for an additional 15 min. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whip cream, if desired.

I can tell you it is sooooooo good!
Enjoy!

Zaq and Grace's school

This is a picture of the school that Zaq and Grace attend. Its a Christian Acadamy and they are doing really well here. They love their teachers and they love the school.

Eating apples in the orchard

Grace loved eating the apples right of the tree

Tractor Ride to the Orchard

Taking the tractor ride to to orchard was almost as much fun as picking apples in the orchard. Grace is holding on to Josh for her life.

Apple picking

We went to Wallingsford Apple farm to do some apple picking. Trying to get all 4 of them to stand in front of the sign to take a picture was pretty much impossible. As you can see Grace was all over the place.

Trip to Maine

Gracie in one of her famous ballet poses, my camera just doesnt show the beautifull colors of the trees that good, maybe "Santa" will bring me a new camera and next year I can take some good pictures of the landscape.

Beautiful trees in Maine

I took a trip to Maine this month to stay with Tina's kids while she went to her yearly conference in Chicago this year.
The colors of the trees are briliant this is only one of the trees that i passed on the way to Walmart by her house. I could have taken 100 pictures they were all so beautiful.

Ron and Gram's Birthday

We went to Cracker Barrel for Ron and Gram's birthdays. Their birthdays are only one day apart so we usually end up celebrating on the same day. Gram loves the Macaroni and cheese and chicken strips kids meal. She says it "melts in your mouth" She turned 95 this year and still running circles around us.

Mattie Elizabeth 2 months old. Is she not a cutie?
Looks soooo much like her daddy
