My plan for this past weekend was to invite one of Lacey's friends from school to come over to our house and play while I cooked and cleaned. I was hoping that a friend would keep her occupied and I could get something done. Well I knew my plan would either work or backfire on me! It just so happened that it worked! Lacey and Rachel played WONDERFUL together! They played outside on the swing set, they drove the car, they painted, played hide and go seek and doctor with the baby dolls all while I cooked dressing, cookies and peanutbutter balls in 3 hours!! (Not joking...I did it all, while they were playing! It was awesome!)
Lacey and Rachel having a ball in the Mustang! They ran into every tree, bush and swing they could find. They had a great time together.

The Peanut Festival
One afternoon we surprised Lacey by just showing up at the Peanut Festival. She was sooo surprised when she saw the Ferris Wheel and she realized that was her surprise! She went nuts, she was so excited!
Feeding the goats, llamas, cows and sheep at the petting zoo.
Riding the tea cups! First ride of the night!

Lacey bungee jumping! She loved that too. Not heavy enough or daring enough to try to do flips!
Mommy and Lacey on the Ferris Wheel. Mommy was a little nervous! That thing is high and goes slow enough for you to realize how high you really are!
The view from the Ferris Wheel. You see the Wild Mouse ride? Well you have to be 42 inches tall to ride it and Lacey really wanted to ride it. Well she's only about 39/40 inches tall. Well the little guy that was operating the ride asked it she was tall enough and I said yes. So we waited in line for 20 minutes. He kept eyeing Lacey like she wasn't tall enough. So I put her hood on her head and told her when she walked by the man to stand on her tippy toes or he wouldn't let her ride. Well we get up to the gate and she is on her tippy toes. He measures her and tells her to stop standing on her toes. Well she would NOT get off her tippy toes. I had to physically put her heal down so he could measure her. She was about an inch short (with the hood on) but he let her ride anyways! Lacey was determined to ride the Wild Mouse!!

Long Overdue!
Some of Lacey's friends at school.
Her friend Rachel.

Some of her classmates.
Zane wanted to take us on a boat ride to see the changing color of the leaves. It was a little chilly that morning, so we bundled Lacey up in her ski suit. She was pretty warm!
Decorating the pumpkin!
Our finished product!


Halloween evening with Scott, Tina, and Ivy.
Lacey and Ivy playing with a box! Out of all the toys they had the most fun with a box!

Ivy wasn't thrilled about having her picture taken!

Now it's Ivy's turn! She wanted a butterfly! Lacey actually wanted her whole face painted but we just couldn't do that!

I have no idea what to title this! :)
I have to first apologize because I have not been updating my blog like I have in the past. I guess the newness of it all is starting to wear off. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy posting pictures and writing tidbits on here but I just haven't found the time to "play"! I promise I will post some more pictures soon. I have pictures of Lacey getting her soccer trophy, her completed and organized room, and pictures of her for crazy hair day. All coming soon!
Ok, so now that you know I don't have any pictures to post let me tell you a few of Lacey's cute and funny sayings...
The other day I was getting her out of the car and I had her unbuckled but she was taking her dear sweet time. I had about 5 bags of groceries in my hands, the mail, the keys, etc. Well I told her "Lacey, hurry up and get out, my hands are full with the groceries!" She looked at me and said, "Momma, that's not my fault!" What do I say to that? Stop talking back or true? Especially to a 4 year old! How witty!
Ok, another one...She won an ipod shuffle at school for being the top seller in her school. Well she came home that day and said, "Mommy, I won a shovel at school today!" I said, "You did! What do you do with it?" She said, "Mommy, you know you dig with a shovel!" Too cute! Oh, and by the way, we have this apple ipod shuffle thing and don't have a clue what to do with it. I looked it up at Walmart.com and they are selling for $75 so it seems like a good prize but I am clueless about this type of technology! Ok, so I am exaggerating just a little...I do know what to do with it but does it take a long time to download 500 songs...and what 500 songs am I going to put on there for a 4 year old? Oh, I know, her favorite song...Apple bottom jeans and the boots with the fur, and the whole club was looking at her!! HA!
I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL day and I love you all!!! Thanks for reading and taking a look into my crazy world as a mother!

A beautiful promise!

Mickey and Minnie at the clubhouse.
Mickey looks a little drunk....Sorry Mickey! He doesn't know which door to go in or out!
Ok, next is a project Lynn and I decided to tackle at about 7:00 Sunday night. We took everything out of Lacey's closet, toy boxes, bookcases and went through and organized it. These are the before pictures. I'm not going to post the "after" pictures just yet because I want to take them this weekend and show Lynn that Lacey's room is still clean and organized! Thanks for your help!
