Gorilla, lions, and bugs...oh my!
This month My mom and I decided a trip to the Cincinnatti Zoo was needed!! :)
We had such a great time! This zoo is amazing, you really get to see animals close up and the exhibits are so beautiful! Korbin liked it, but Kolton he was in heaven...he LOVES animals!
This was the most beautiful lion i have even seen. So big and truly a beautiful creature of God
the insect wall...one of Koltons favorite exhibits. The whole place was full of bugs. It was so interesting!
Having fun in the jungle!
Ice cream break
I think our ice cream break was Korbin's favorite part....that along with the train ride!
petting a wallaby
This is my happy boy!! I love that sweet smile!
Korbin and Nonna playing!
This elephant just came right up to the fence to say hi to us!
Aunt Margie and Sheila came along for the fun!
This was the best picture i got with my boys after about twenty tries..oh well, memory made!
The zoo was great, i love doing new things with my boys and introducing them to fun things! I can't wait to take them back already! Next time we will take Daddy (he couldn't take off work) :(
Kolton and Korbin, you had a blast at the zoo and I am so thankful for memories we make together!

Yummy Fall treats!
The other day I came across a recipe on a blog and had to try it out. Kolton loves helping me bake, so while Korbin was napping we baked up a yummy treat!
Here is the recipe.
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins....need i say more!
i love my KitchenAid mixer. I have had it 6 years (it was a wedding gift) and use it all the time!
Kolton loves the mixer too. He thinks it's "so cool"
I topped the muffins/cupcakes off with cream cheese icing and we have already devoured half of them!!
I didn't take an after picture..i was to busy eating them....i will next time!
If your reading my blog and need a yummy treat to make..this is it!!! SOOO good!

pumpkins, corn, and Cuteness.
I love the Fall of the year...Great weather, beautiful colors, pumpkins, fun activities, and football!
We started the Fall off with a trip to the Corn Maze...
playing in the corn box. Who ever thought of this was brilliant!
After having lots of fun the boys picked their perfect pumpkin and we headed home!
Kolton's room make-over
I decided to re-do Kolton's room into something alittle more "big boyish"(since he is four and all..lol)
He loves it, and i think it turned out really cute and perfect for him!
that nightstand was orange, and i just painted it red to match the new bedspread alittle better.
This is a picture of his room before...well a pic of his wall anyways! I didn't take one of the whole room, it was in bright colors and dinosaurs. The blue paint on the walls was nice but i just couldn't handle it any longer. The new beige is much calmer!!
Korbin 1st *little* haircut!
He didn't have much that needed to be cut. But, he definitly needed a trim.
He really though he was cute after getting a new do!!! :)
Kolton's 4th Birthday Party(s)
I'm behind (real behind) on posting on my blog. But thats ok, i'm about to catch up!
This year Kolton wanted a Pokemon birthday. Its his favorite thing at the moment. I couldn't find anyone to make a Pokemon cake, so Nick (my husband) took on the task. Him and and my mother-n-law. They made an awesome cake and cupcakes...Kolton loved them, we all did!
a Pokeball cupcake!
We had Kolton a small party after Wednesday night kids group at church
He is FOUR!
My lil' boys are growing up and i couldn't be happier to be celebrating another birthday!
On Kolton's actual birthdate we went to Chucke Cheese....its become a tradition! We have so much fun watching him run from game to game to play and his eyes light up when we walk in the door!
Nonna and Nana with the birthday boy and Korbin (wanting me pick him up..lol)
Happy Fourth birthday Kolton!!!!
