I always said these two were glued at the hip....

When you have boys two things are certain

1) Weird objects soar thru the air (brooms).

2) Things break (or, in this case, shatter).

Thanks T!

Labor Day Saturday

I don't remember celebrating Labor Day too much, but I do remember it helps start the football season, which I am always excited about.  We spent today at my brother's house and my cousins, Harry and Ashley and kiddos, also came down for the cookout.

Of course, lots of football watching - and kids, ALL AROUND!

This was Lilly's first family gathering, which can be very overwhelming, but she seemed to do great!

 Philip had to give mom a lesson on how her computer syncs with her new iPhone (this should be interesting).

And, of course, cornhole was played.

Poor Gary, his first American cornhole experience and he got partnered with me.  (I feel certain Harry is laughing at me in this picture)

 Good to have these guys around:

And good to meet this new little one of Harry and Ashley's:

This is when I know we have socialized too long, and it is time to go.  

I don't brag on my hubby enough

Sometimes it is hard to have a carpenter as a husband.  It is hard only because you know what he is capable of, but he is either too busy (and for some reason doesn't want to work on the weekends) or he doesn't have work and there is no money for materials.

He has recently built a deck, remodeled three different bathrooms and remodeled a kitchen.  Here are some pictures of his work:

A master bath and tiled shower -

 A beautiful kitchen -

 Aren't those lights cool?

 3x3 tiled floor

An awesome shower I envy -

A deck-

A screened in porch -

And he even helped build a log cabin

He does such awesome work!

we can't always wait for Capps to finish....

Got to spend time with both of these cuties today -

Lilly, age 18 months

 Libby, age 4 months

Summer Birthday All-Day Lollipop

Capps' teacher gives these big lollipops to each student to enjoy on their birthday.  Today was the day that all the Summer birthdays got theirs.
