Mostly Wordless Wednesday #12! NO WAY!!!



I have been needing to vent about this since it happened on Sunday; I thought a Mostly WORDLESS post would be fitting considering I was SPEECHLESS when my oldest son was NOT listening to me about running around the house with a rubber baseball on a string!!!

I told him it would end up hitting something and he would be in HUGE trouble if he broke anything of mine!

They say, MOTHER KNOWS BEST because sure enough on Sunday, he was running and CRASH!!!! My living room wall shelf FULL of antique dishes and tea cups/saucers I collect came crashing to the floor! I came around the corner and this is what I saw...



All but 4 of my lovely sentimental and some PRICEY collectibles, shattered on the living room floor! I literally did not know what to do or say! Brian came around the corner and proclaimed, "HOLY SH*T!!" I just stood there stunned, then screamed "GO TO YOUR ROOM". And a big speech came after that followed by a GROUNDING... but no BUTT WHOOPING! I contained myself; my son was crying saying "I'm a dumb kid..." over and over. I told him he wasn't a DUMB kid, but he made a really DUMB decision to run with the ball, after being told MANY times NOT TO DO IT!!!


So much for part of my collection:(

Not so much of a HAPPY WW here!

You Ask... I'll Tell!


Hi gals!
I have been coming across a LOT of blogs lately that have had posts that let their readers "ask them anything"! I thought this would be something FUN and different to do!
Plus it gives us a chance to get to know each other better:)

Lets keep it PG :) and please NO religious or political questions!
I choose not to express my beliefs/thoughts on those 2 topics on my blog!

Soooooo... ASK AWAY!
Ask me ANYTHING you have ever wondered about me!
I will reply to your comments on this POST, as you leave them for me:)
That way everyone can learn a little something more!!

Hugs,
Noelle ♥

SCRAPBOOK SUNDAY: CIRCUS!


Welcome back to Scrapbook Sunday!

Today I am showing off some CIRCUS themed layouts I did in one my oldest son's albums.
These pics were taken when my son was in Pre-K and his class put on a circus at the end of the year for the parents! From age 3-5 he was OBSESSED with playing dress up and pretending to be a cat. It was ONLY fitting that he chose to be a CAT for the class circus!

Here he is doing his PAW-SOME tricks :o)



They decorated the class room to look just like a circus and had popcorn/cotton candy for us all to snack on while we watched!



He made an invitation and circus tickets for us by hand!
I love looking at this now to see how much his handwriting has changed in the past 3-4 years!

I added these lil bits of memorabilia to the last page of the circus layout!

Also found some cute circus themed stickers to use too.
The clown stickers actually weren't that FREAKY looking; like how clowns usually look!


Thanks for stopping by to visit me today!

Check these gals to see their SS posts: TINA and KATIE

If you did a SS post; leave me a comment and I'll get you linked up!!

Only 3 more...


... 3 more months that is TILL OUR WEDDING DAY!!

Today marks 3, just 3 months till November 14th the day Brian and I will say "I Do"!

I thought I'd be a bit sweet (for once) so I text him today and said "3 months from today, I will be your wifey!"

He text me back and said, "Haha, thats what you think!"

My response back to him, "Why can't you ever be ROMANTIC?"

His response, "Why can't you ever take a JOKE?"

Yup, I am marrying a HUGE Joker...
NOT Mr. Romantic!

Sighhhhhhh!!!

He romanced me strong in the beginning, over 9 years ago...
I guess its all out of his system by now! LOL

Are your hubbies the same way?

Thinking of Halloween Costumes!


I know its a bit early but I have Halloween costumes on the brain!
I usually have my kids costumes picked out/purchased or made by October!!
My mom likes to make the boys costumes but is pretty busy with all my wedding decor and prep to do them this year.

I am looking for ideas...
My oldest is obsessed with Pokemon, which would make him SO happy to be one of the characters! But, they are not the cutest and hard to find! I like to pick unique things for them to be, you know... something out of the ordinary!

I really want to dress Gage as Mickey Mouse cause I think he'd be SO DARN cute:)
But its such a COMMON costume!

Gavin has been these for Halloween:
duck, lion, scarecrow, Cat in the Hat, Tin Man from Wizard of Oz, a Pirate and a King.

Gage was a pumpkin for his 1st Halloween and a squirrel last year!

I'd like to find a "duo" for them to be or something that kinda goes together!

ANY SUGGESTIONS???

What is your most memorable or unique costumes that you or your child has worn?

One year my mom made us POPPLES!! Remember those, if not- click HERE.
One year I was SMURFETTE when I was little!!

I really like Halloween; the fun NOT SCARY and gross parts of it, how about you?
