Ryan and Samuel were playing yesterday and they seemed to be having so much fun. Here are a few pictures!
I love those big blue eyes
Samuel discovering Daddy's mouth. Ryan was roaring and it just makes Samuel laugh so much!
My happy boys!
And the verdict is...
Well, Greta was the only one brave enough to send in a guess...so you win by default! The picture above shows the groceries I bought on Wednesday. The grand total before taxes and store discounts & coupons was $107.10 I walked away with a receipt that showed that I spent $4.72 and a new coupon to use on my next visit for $2.50. So I'd say I did pretty great! Thanks Liz for getting me into this, and my pantry and human garbage disposals (Ryan and John) thank you too!
Thank you Greta
A friend of mine has a blog and she has begun couponing! About a month ago she held a contest to see if people could guess how much she paid for her groceries. I thought I would do the same. The winner will receive a $5 Starbucks gift card in the mail. You have until Friday morning at 10am to submit your guess. ***A side note-our store tripled my coupons! The original total before taxes was $107.10
Since it was difficult to get everything clearly in the picture I will tell you what I bought:
4 cans of dole mandarin oranges
3 containers French's spicy mustard
1 jar Frank's Red Hot Sauce
1 container KC masterpiece BBQ sauce
2 boxes Martha White Corn Bread mix
3 boxes Pillsbury Cake Mix
3 bags Sara Lee Sandwich Bread
1 package Solo cups
2 Dawn Dish Soap
2 Lysol All purpose Cleaner
2 Lysol Toilet cleaner
1 Colgate Toothpaste
1 No Yolks noodles
1 Reynolds Aluminum foil
1 Container of Comet Cleaner
3 packages of 8ct Bandaids
1 package Mentos Gum
1 Package Trident Layers Gum
6 Snickers bars
Have fun and guess well!!!
Pittsburgh!
Last week we drove to Pittsburgh to visit some great friends. Mark and Rebecca moved there the same weekend we moved to Wilmington and began their career as operator of South Hills CFA the same day we did here. For Christmas I gave Ryan a trip to PA to see our friends and LOTS of snow!

The four of us. Becca got one of their teenagers to watch Samuel so we could all go out for an "adult" dinner, one that doesn't include cheerios and baby food!
At the sports museum. Mark trying to see how fast he could karate chop the mat!
They had a life size Operation game...it was fun!
Becca and Samuel building a skyscraper to see if it could withstand an earthquake.
Becca sent Samuel this cute little shirt to wear when we were there, it was definitely cold and snow covered, very cute! Thanks Aunt Becca!
Samuel's RuRu (Ryan's mom) got him ready for the snow. This little snowsuit was great because it covered his hands, feet and head! It reminded us of the Christmas Story...he had a hard time putting his arms down, but he liked the snow a lot better being covered up!
The family playing in the snow and hiding under the big branch that had fallen in their back yard!
