A new blog to check out!!!

I have been dappling in the new frugal lifestyle movement that has been going on lately, ( I'm kind of flop but I'm trying) I've made an atempt at using coupons but my impulse buying usually wipes out any money that I've saved. And I've been trying to build up some food storage as well, and yesterday believe it or not I made laundry detergent from scratch. It's always nice to get advice from someone who has a nack for for these types of things. So if you are interested in learning more my friend Stephanie has a new blog that has some really fun ideas. http://myfrugallifestyle.blogspot.com

We love this little boy!!!

Of all the gifts Aubrey and Hali have ever recieved Blake is the best!! They never grow tired of him. I keep waiting for them to get irritated or bored with him, but they never do. He is the first person they want to see in the morning, and they will always drop what ever they are doing to play with him or help me with him in any way. I seriously think they are more patiant with him than I am. I can't believe how lucky I am to have these three little children, I am so proud of each and every one. I love them more than words can say.

Our new winter hobby

As many of you know us Toones spend alot of time on the lake, we even found out we enjoy the water in winter as well. William probebly went ice fishing once or twice a week Jan.- March the kids and I even tagged along a couple of times. We had a blast. I'm glad Will found a hobby that can turn into family time as well. Will turned the big 30 last Thursday and I got him an Icefishing shack for his birthday to bad the ice fishing weather is about over, I am sure he will get lots of use out of it next year.

I've lost some names on my blog lists, playing with my background. If you don't see your name leave me a comment so I can add you back.

Look who's 1

My baby boy is one today, I can't believe how fast the last year has gone. It's like he was never a little baby. I feel so very blessed to have him, he has definetly been my easiest to enjoy thus far. We love you Blakester and look forward to seeing you grow!

Melissa emailed me some pictures of Olivia Bday party and I looked at this shot of Hali could totally see myself. I thought I would share.

Super Bowl

We spent Sunday at Toones for the anual Super Bowl bash. I couldn't tell you anything about the game, I was there for the food. We had fun however and Blake got to show off, he can walk and Grandma Toone has been working on getting him to throw his hands in the air every time someone yells touch down. Pretty cute!
