Autumn Time

  Happy Autumn to you all.
This is my favorite time of the year. I love the colors, the much cooler weather ( I HOPE).

I have already decorated the house for Fall. I have been waiting for this day all summer. 
Found this picture and thought it was cute. 
So tomorrow is a new working day of the week. 
Starting my workout program. I am excited about this.
A new attitude to go with the new season.
New or revised goals are in the works.
With only 93 days till Christmas I need to do some major planning for the holidays.
Have a wonderful afternoon. 
Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Gabby is 13

I can't believe that my youngest is 13 years old.
She has grown to be such a beautiful young lady.
Still goofy and a lot of fun.
This is Gabby ready to leave for school this morning 
Love this pose
And this one. 
We are going to have to really keep the boys from our house with our 3 beautiful teenage
daughters now.
Tonight we had Gabby's Birthday Dinner
Per her request we had chicken pockets, corn and Toll House Pie for her cake.
This was as we were getting her pie ready to light the candles.
 Gabby and E'lyse
 Gabby looks like she is saying "Hurry already"
 Gabby really looks bored now.
 Finally
Then we sang
 
Gabby made a wish and blew out the candles 
   Time for the family tradition of all the candles in her mouth
Tada she did it!
Crazy to think she is a teenager now.
People always say they grow up so fast,
and they do.
Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Bath Time & Hanging Out In My Room

These pictures where taken when Coco and the kiddos were here visiting. 
This is one of the problems with not keeping up on the blogging there are so many pictures.

For some reason we tend to end up in my room hanging out.
Kylia looking cute (love the piggy tails)

Faith with grumpy face 
 Coco's evil plan of foot in Faith's face

 Faith was a little disgusted by Coco's plan. 
 Gabby kept hiding trying to not get her picture taken 
 HA I got one anyway. 
This was taken at a different time .
Gabby watched the kiddos while Coco & I went away.
Gabby put Evil eyebrows on Kylia.
She is so cute! 
It was great having having Coco, Talmage, Naima and Kylia here.
It is always a lot of fun having them here.

Dallas is 21

 We celebrated Dallas's 21st Birthday a day early 
since Coco and her kiddos were going home the next day.
Dallas, Sara and Dean came over for dinner and cake. 
Funny story Dallas had called me on Monday. I had already planned & had meat thawing out for dinner.
Dallas say's "I was wondering if you wanted to do my Birthday celebration tonight since Coco is leaving in the morning? "
 I said sure. Normally I would ask person having Birthday what they want for dinner & cake, pie or cookies. 
Me:  " What about your cake or what do you want? " 
Dallas: "Well I guess Sara and I could stop and buy a cake. Unless you want to make a chocolate cake with peanut butter icing."
Me: "If I want to ?"
Dallas: "Yea, only if you want to?"
he he Love this kiddos.
So we had planned dinner of meatloaf and I did make the chocolate cake & peanut butter frosting. 
Sara, Dallas and E'lyse standing beside him.  
   Sara, E'lyse showing sisterly love (or just trying to get in the picture) hugging Dallas.
Family tradition of putting all the candles in your mouth. Of course this is after we have sang and the candles have been blown out. 
(Honestly I almost chocked on mine in June there was so many). 
 Sara giving Dallas a Birthday kiss. 
We had a good time visiting and celebrating his Birthday.
I can't believe he is 21 boy does this make me feel a little dated. he he

Tuesday Night Class Results

I have sat down at least 5 times to get this post up and something
would call my attention away or the computer wouldn't let me add it.
So anyway the class on the Tuesday night that I though went well.
I am not sure how much the girls will remember or if they will ever use it
but, I did what I could and had fun.
Glad when it was over. The class went way longer than planned.
After the class we all had healthy smoothies that were yummy.
 Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Why Did I Say Yes?


Last month I was asked if I would teach some information about massage to the young woman in our ward.
Tonight is the night. Why did I say yes? I get very nervous doing things like this. Even though I love massage and can go on for hours about it, I still get nervous having to talk to people.
 So I decided I would go with the basics of eating healthy, then exercise and then to massage teaching some 
reflexology on their face, ears, hands and feet.
(No this is not my hands or my feet)

Cross your fingers for me and say a few prayers that all goes well.
 Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Labor Day


It is Labor Day are you doing anything fun?
We are just enjoying the day off.
 The girls are excited they don't have school and get to sleep in.
E'lyse and some friends are going to a Diamond Backs baseball game.
Alan went dove hunting. Sunday was the opening day of dove season. He won't hunt on Sunday so he was excited to be able to go this morning.
I am going to work on some de-cluttering, organizing and reading.
Be safe and enjoy your day! 
 Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Sunday Pictures

It was a good Sunday. 
I slept in and it felt so wonderful. Truly needed it today.
We were very late to church making it for the last 2 hours of church. 
I have been called as a Nursery Worker. I get to
hang out with the 3 year old children. 
They are so cute and each has their own little personalities blossoming. 
These pictures were taken after church. 
E'lyse, Faith and Gabby looking pretty for their Sunday picture. 
 Silly girls 
 E'lyse concurred Gabby  
 Faith coming at me 
When we got home we ate lunch then I took a nap. 
I think my body is trying to fight off something so I am not fighting the sleep I am just doing it when I can. 
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. 
Hugs. Bobbi Jo 

Happy Dog

This is my sweet Nellie. She doesn't like her picture taken so it is hard to get one of her. On Saturday I caught her as she was sitting in front of our fan in our bedroom just enjoying the fan blowing on her.
I asked her if she was enjoying it? She then proceeded to roll around on the floor in front of the fan. 
So I was able to get this one. 
Hugs, Bobbi Jo
