Fall clean up


It's that time of year again. Time to clean out my flowerbeds and get ready for the snow. Will and Blake were lots of help driving the tractor and dumping the flowers as I got them pulled and loaded. I love my boys.

Henry's Lake







A few weeks ago we decided to load up the kids and go fishing at Henry's Lake. We had so much fun. I have only been fishing once about 12 years ago and this was a whole new experiance for the kids who thought the boat was only for wakeboarding. There was a lot of screaming and flying worms. We ended up with 5 big slimy fish and some great memories ( After we caught the first fish Aubrey wanted to know where the blow hole was.) The girls also came up with some great new fishing songs. Will is such a good dad he is so busy but he always manages to come up with time for family. We are very lucky to have him.

Attention all fly babies!


What is Kristi smokin today! The answer is nothing my friends. I just wanted to let everybody know that me and my cute niece have started a new blog game/help center for our flybaby friends. A few years ago I was feeling very overwhelmed by all of the duties I seemed to be failing as mom and home maker. I just couldn't seem to see a light at the end of the tunnel that would enable me to keep up with my house work so that I would have the time to spend enjoying my family the way I wanted to. So I Got on amazon and bought a book that I had recently heard about by Marla cilley called sink reflections and it did wonders, not only did it change how clean my house was it changed my attitude. I highly recomend it to everyone no matter what stage in life you might be in. Well anyways Amanda and I will be posting a simple task or two on our blog daily. Feel free to participate at any time, and please leave your comments. I will be hoping to hear you. There is a link to our blog just us fly babies under my friends and family list.
