{Lucky you!}
The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year.
4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be a picture of myself, or a handmade piece of artwork for your living room. I may sew you something. I may bake you something. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!}

LETS PLAY!

9-24-08 Kiegen is VIP

This is during singing time, so funny to watch.

When they are the VIP they get to bring home this Bear to watch for the weekend. Then when they go back to school they get to tell everyone what they did with "Buddy Bear".

It also happened to be clown day the same day he was VIP. Kiegen didn't dress up, but his teachers did and so did some of his classmates. It was so funny.

So on September 24, Kiegen was the VIP at preschool. We made a poster board with everything he likes and he got to help the teacher hand out treats. He brought the puppies in to show his class and just had a great day. We even went to Dairy Queen for lunch and got milk shakes.

Roxy and her Babies

Today Roxy, our miniature dachshund, had four precious little puppies. There are 3 boys and 1 little girl. Our neighbor and good friend Tyra, who is a great photographer and took all the pictures below, came over with her kids to see the birth of the last 2 puppies. It was a teaching experience for all the kids, and boy did they have some questions as the babies were coming out:) Kiegen is trying to talk us into keeping the very light tan little boy, but we'll have to see.

*Warning there is one birthing picture below, but it isn't bad*

She is such a protective mommy.

This little guy came out and didn't make one sound so Spencer thought he wasn't breathing. Nope he was fine, he just latched on seconds after birth.

The birthing picture, I told you it wasn't bad.

Isn't that the sweetest thing!! Baby and mommy, oh so cute!

Kiegen's First Day of Preschool

Kiegen started preschool Tuesday, September 2, 2008. We started off the morning with a good breakfast. Spencer made eggs, toast, and bacon. Yumm!

He was very excited and took his Spiderman backpack with wheels:)

He has his own special cubby to put his backpack and jacket.

After preschool is over they line up and wait for their moms or dads.

Kiegen's first day was great! He learned about Astronauts and planets and couldn't wait to go back the next day. Having his best bud Zac (the one not looking at the camera) in his class is really fun too. They both love preschool.

Kiegen's First Blog

Kiegen always sees me updating our family blog and decided that he wanted to start blogging too. He has his own digital camera that he takes pictures with all the time and wanted a place to show them off. I'm not sure how long it will last because I barely have enough time to update my own blog, but we're giving it a shot. Check it out at kiegen.blogspot.com

Mowing the Lawn

We finally got grass planted and along with the weeds it was long enough to mow. Kiegen and Spencer got on the riding mower and now it looks great.

Kiegen even got to steer himself and did an awesome job. He loves helping his dad.
