Addicted

Hello. My name is Kim and I have an addiction. At times I am ashamed, but mostly I am not. I love it. It is Pinterest.

I cannot seem to stop watching the Pin boards. There are so many creative, crafty people out there, who are smart enough to post what they make. (Yay you!)

Well, after looking (and repinning) a lot of really cute things, I finally decided to try a few myself. And thanks to my iPod touch, a camera is always readily available!

Here are a few pinterest creations brought to life by me:




EASY donuts... The kids LOVED them. Refrigerator biscuit dough, cut the hole out with round cookie cutter, dip donut and hole in cinnamon sugar, bake according to package directions. We made a glaze to go over the top, and then I even dipped some in chocolate frosting! Yum!!



Today I made 'Heavenly Hand-cream' wow. This stuff is GOOD! Baby lotion, vitamin E cream, and Vaseline. That's it. I whipped it in my mixer, and found these cute jars in the dollar section at Target. Love it! Think I am gonna give it to my infant teachers at the Day Care. They wash their hands a million times a day, and their hands crack so bad.

Well, I have made other things, too. I guess I just didn't take a pic of it. You should see the ornaments I am making right now. So damn cute.

My name is Kim, and I have an addiction to Pinterest.

First Game Ever

So Zack had his first game scheduled for Saturday, the 10th. It was in Arvada, about 30 minutes from our house. We got there and they told us that our game was canceled. The coach wasn't told, nothing. We were not very happy. However, another team said they would stay after their game to scrimmage us. The boys were pretty happy about that. The other team was 8 & 9 year olds. That's ok, we still did really well.



Here is Zack's team. The Grizzlies. (Yep. Zack is the littlest.)



Defense... Defense...



Waiting for his turn. He really did a great job. It is so much fun watching midget football...even if it is flag football. Zack loves it...and Todd does, too.

Flag Football

Football. It is a way of life. Our life. Not a day goes by where I don't have to dodge a flying football just to get to my kitchen. (Yes, footballs being thrown in the house, somehow I lost that battle...)

He has grown up going to every one of his big brother's football games.

Many days he would carry a football behind his back and walk up to his daddy and say, "Daddy, guess what I have?" and they would play catch. He has been throwing since he was 2. He even holds the laces the right way, just like Daddy showed him.

He is one hell of a little football player. This is going to be a good year.

First Day of School

Zack...ready for Kindergarten!


His Superman back pack. Cool.


Pretty Emily... 3rd Grade


Walking to the classroom doors...


Same school, different teachers. Yay, Alice and Zacky!


He was so nervous... Broke my heart. Daddy had to step in.


He only cried a little thru out the day. It was very weird as NONE of my other kids ever cried! I was the only one who cried each time. Dad and I took him the first few days. He cried the second day, too, but just at drop off. He made a friend, and said "bye" to him. It was cute. Starting next week, he will be riding the Day Care van, and Emily will walk him to class.

Estes Park - Cub Lake

We went up to Estes Park. Just to go. Entered into Rocky Mountain National Park... And hiked the 2.3 miles to Cub Lake. It was beautiful...then we had to hike another 2.3 miles back.

This is what all that hiking did to my 4 kids:

Fun

Pie in the face is very sticky and kinda stings your eyes.

Good to use as a hair gel...
