Saturday Fun

Stuck

While in her bathtub this weekend, Camden calls out.

 

"Help!"

 

"Help!"

Apparantly, her jumbo bucket is not jumbo enough to fit a 5 year old's backside.  We all giggled (and it did take a little bit of heft to break the suction that was keeping her in).

Tent

While cleaning under her bed this past weekend, I propped her mattress up.  Camden crawled in the space and declared it her new tent.  She even slept there one night while her "watchcat" stood guard.  (This looks light because of the flash, but it actually was the middle-of-the-night dark).

Selfie II

Love this selfie of my and my baby on a hayride at Hobson's farm.  She always brings a smile to my face!

All But...

Forgot to post pictures of the finished kitchen.  YEA!

 

Love the seamless sink.  You just wipe everything from the counter straight in.

We still don't have everything back in to cabinets or in the spot we want them.  We are also going to do some tile work behind the stove and walls beside it.  It's another small project that doesn't take priority since the kitchen can function without it (and it's hunting season!).

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new kitchen!

Hog Roast

One of the little churches in town (Papaw is actually attends there) has a hog roast every fall around Halloween.  They have a clothing give-away as part of it (you can see the clothes on the basketball court), plus a concert of some sort.  

 

We always go up to the town park for it.  I didn't get a good picture of the "roast", but there was a good turnout and lots of kids for Camden to play with on the small playground.  It's so fun to see her interact with them since she knows (and is known) them from school.

Trick or Treat

Kevin took his little pink unicorn trick or treating on Friday night.  Because of severe weather on Halloween, our town moved the action back one night.  Per tradition, the first two stops:  Gaga & Grandpa and Papaw.

 

I bought "pre-glittered" paper to make her horn and didn't think about the sticky side of the contact paper.  In the course of getting ready for the night, the inside of her horn stuck together and she had a flattened horn.  She didn't care, but I wish I had caught the potential problem and stuffed it.

They hit every house in town that had a porch light on!  She had TONS of candy.  They ran into several friends from school along the way.

When they got to Paxton's house, Camden wanted him to come for the rest of the evening.  They headed back to our house where I was handing out candy. 

I like that job, but I also sprang my foot (and probably hairline-fractured a bone in it), so a night of walking was not going to be fun.  Initial x-rays at Urgent Care last week were a non-break and I was sent home with 8-10 days in a "boot".  However, it had been 3 weeks since the twist and I was still in significant pain when I walked in regular shoes.  At my primary doctor visit on Friday, he pinpointed a bone that by it's tenderness indicated a possible hairline.  Since I was already wearing a boot he suggested 3-4 more weeks (ugh) in it to finish the healing before we spend more money on an MRI/casting/etc.  The boot really helps, but extended walking leads quickly to soreness.

Kevin was exhausted when he got home.  They really walked a long distance, plus he was pulling the wagon with various numbers of children in it throughout the evening.  But, they both really loved their time together - nothing like Daddy-daughter time on such a fun night !
