Won again!

I follow some really awesome blogs...no, really I do! You should see all the talent out there! I enter as many giveaways as possible too, and now its paid off twice! I follow this cute blog, The Crafy Crow, and she hunts down all this really cute stuff for you to do with your kids. Well, she had this giveaway for this amazing little book By Little Hands and I thought: that would be fun to have! So, I entered and won! I was really shocked...really! The author emailed me and got my address and this cute little book is on its way to the Reece house! I cant wait to check it out! See people...it pays to enter contests!

Labor Day

We went camping for Labor Day with my parents, and Chad and Krista were able to make it up for a few day too. We went to Panguitch Lake (the usual!) and we had a blast! We fished and rode the ATV'S all over and some of us (not me of course) even TENT CAMPED!! Can you believe it? Hunter and Jeff slept in Jeff's (notice I didn't say OUR tent??!!) and Chad and Krista had their own. Hunter only made it one night in the tent and halfway in the middle of the 2nd night Jeff walked him into the trailer and said "Hes crying and he wants you". Duh...of course!! Its COLD out there! Here are a few pics!

Allie thinking she gets coffee in the morning too

Jeff and his HUGE fish (trout) he caught. And he actually said to me...wait for it..."I kinda wanna get this mounted". gesh...

"US"-self portrait!

Doughnuts

Hunter and I made some doughnuts this afternoon and since I am still craving Fall I made the icing a spicy, apple cider icing...these are fabulous! And so super easy! Just bring a large pot of vegetable oil to high and cut holes out of the center of refrigerated biscuits. And, when you have little hands (and may I say extremely cute and still dimply ones like these) you just have to drop them in the hot oil and flip them once they brown up. About 2-3 min on each side. Then, dip the tops in the icing and just dunk the holes all the way under and enjoy! Nothing like sweet, simple, easy lovin'!




Allison has chicken pox!

How did she get it? Don't know. Where did she get if from? Don't know that either. All I know is the cute little girl got them! Who du thunk it? I didn't even think kids these days still got these, you know with the vaccine they get to protect them from it and all...oh, wait...yep, its coming back to me now...she didn't get hers! She is behind because of those darn ears...and now look what happened! At least its a very mild case of the chicken pox and thank God for that! And, she is handling it well, so another point for Allie! Plus, look at those cute pink cheeks and those round, chubby little knees! Yep, she's still got it! Even if she has, well, the plauge! Poor baby!
