2 Weeks Later

Wow, it's been 2 weeks. My Ky visit was wonderful. We got to my mom's house on Friday morning. My nephews were out for their fall break so we took my nephews and lil bit to Two Sister's Pumpkin Patch in Mt. Sterling, we had a great time! They did the corn maze, the petting zoo, played in the hay rolls and then picked out their pumpkins. Just driving around in Ky in the Fall made me miss it that much more. It was perfect weather, warm with a brisk breeze, and the leaves had changed, it was beautiful. I'm so glad I made the trip. After the pumpkin patch the kids went to see Beverly Hills Chihuahua, we had seen it already so I went to Wal-mart to develop some of the pictures from the pumpkin patch.

On Saturday, one of my nephews had his 5th birthday at the local pizza place, yummy I even got to eat birthday cake on my visit. I have a wonderful huge family, so anytime someone comes in to visit from out of town, the family has to get together. So my Aunt hosted a cookout and we got to eat and visit with the aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was great!

Sunday was dinner at my grannies, this is what I waited for; roast, potatoes, and cornbread. Then we sat on the porch while the kids picked up the walnuts out of the driveway. They picked up like 12 wal-mart bags so my dad gave them $6 each to get milkshakes from Dairy Queen, so of course that was are next stop. We went out for ice cream. After the ice cream, my mom took lil bit back to her house and I drove over to visit with one of my good friends. It was a good visit and she has the cutest daughter who is sooo country, I mean most people would say I have a bad accent but these people are way more country than me. She was like ... Honey this and Honey that, she is only 7 so you could just imagine, it's hilarious in a cute, sweet way.

Monday my friend I had visited called me at lunch and said she and her daughter had played hookie and wanted to eat lunch, sooo... we went to the local Chinese place (her choice), I'm not big on Chinese buffets but it was good company. This may sound redneck but it's the truth, after lunch we went to Wal-mart shopping. This might tell you theres really not that much to do in my hometown.

Tuesday through Thursday we just hung out and visited- I did make a trip to Lexington to get my butterscotch pie and it was worth the trip, so delish!!! Friday we were headed back to KC but stopped by Mt.Sterling court days and picked up a few items first, but I just didn't have the time to look, because by this time my husband wanted me back home, sooo we had to just skim by a few isles and hit the road.

We got back home on Saturday morning and it was super chilly in KC. I really missed my sweet hubby while we were away, we went out and ate then went to see Appaloosa -it was an ok movie about friendship (my husband had been wanting to watch it).

Sunday morning I was up and cooking breakfast for our tailgating for the Chiefs and Titans game. We ended up leaving the game at half-time because the Chiefs suck and were losing terribly.

I had felt sick since the day I got back from Ky so I have just been resting and trying to get over it. This is why it has taken me so long to post and also the fact I joined Facebook and have been on there more so. But I'm starting to feel better so hopefully I will be back to posting more regular.
