Yee Haw!

A few weeks ago, we took the boys to the rodeo! {Counts as my Project 52 activity with Trent for the month.  grin}  The boys definitely had a blast and as they get older I see us staying longer and doing more - we have dare devils for sure!

Watching a horse show

Feeding the animals (STINKY!!)

Favorite activity (there may or may not have been a tantrum when we got off)

You can't go to the rodeo without eating some carnival food.  In the first picture, you'll see Trent made some friends with people we don't know because their food apparently looked too good!  He also refused to share his ice cream with his mama!

Checking out more animals

My mom thought this picture was so funny.  I think it's time to lose my last 10 baby pounds - you can't even tell who's pregnant. {grin}

Rides!  Trent wasn't big enough for very much, but Miles rode a few 'big boy' rides with his daddy.  One of them he did NOT like and kept reaching for Patty out the side of the ride - we didn't mean to laugh but it was kind of funny.

Can't wait for next year!

Project 52: March Update

I accomplished 3 goals for Project 52 this month and maintained all my continual goals (no fails!), so I'm pretty happy this month.  I need to pick up the pace though on some, since 3 a month isn't going to equal 52 by the end of the year! 

1. Create (read: pay someone to create) a header for my blog. - As is evidenced by the new look to my blog, I got a whole new look!  Yay!
 9. Finally finish Jane Eyre (I’ve started it twice). - I really enjoyed Jane Eyre!  It started out a little slow but turned out really awesome.  Had some neat twists and turns throughout.  Definitely happy I finally finished!
 16. Spend some time in my flower beds. - I officially have done some work in the beds (although Brent has done the most), so I will say this is accomplished, but I hope to actually plant some pretties in the next few weeks.
