Weekend Wrap-up

I have been a little slow posting about last weekend's happenings, but here it is...

Thank goodness, I (Daddy Buck had to work and the boys were at home with a babysitter) was in good company for the last LSU football home game; otherwise, the day would have been a total loss. Yes, the LSU Tigers lost to the Ole Miss Rebels; but, I was able to spend the day with our dear friends, the Gipsons, from our old hometown of Jackson, MS. Aside from the team's loss, the day was great fun.



S (on the left in the picture) is a huge follower of this blog....Thanks S & A for coming to Baton Rouge, I had a great time at the game with you!!





On Sunday we went to church followed by lunch at TJ Ribs, the boys then skipped their naps and we went to our niece, Grace's, 6th birthday party. Happy Birthday Grace!!! The boys had an excellent time. After the party, the boys and Daddy Buck headed home for a much needed nap while I ventured to Wal-Mart to tackle grocery shopping for Thanksgiving dinner. Imagine this....I wasn't the only person with that idea :) The store was a chaotic nightmare!!





Recipe
here's a party pleaser/finger food/sweet treat that's so is super-simple.....only 3 ingredients!!



Oreo Cookie "Clumps"

1 package of Oreos
1 package of cream cheese
1 package white/vanilla almond bark

crush Oreos in Ziploc bag first, cream cream cheese and slowly mix with Oreos, roll mixture into balls and dip in melted almond bark, allow them to "set-up" in refrigerator and enjoy!!

Our family had another fun-filled October weekend...

______________________________________


Friday night we went to see our friends from MS, the Gipsons. We spent the night...Daddy Buck left Saturday around lunch time to go hunting while the boys and I spent the remainder of the day playing in the "country" with our friends.

Here's a quick recap of all we did with a few pictures to follow: Friday night high school football game, four lab-mix puppies to play with, feeding sugar cubes to the horse, riding the four-wheeler, picking lettuce from the garden, and family fun day with church friends ending the evening with a hayride.







Thank you Gips!! We had a blast!! See you in November for the LSU football game...

For now, I can tell you that Daddy Buck killed a 150+ sal (hog) on his hunting trip this weekend. It was his first kill!! And, with a bow&arrow!! Yeah Dad!!

The boys and I, along with my friend Mama Olive and her son Little Lou, went to the pumpkin patch today.

There we partook in a petting zoo, face painting, milking a cow, picking, pumpkin painting, rolling down the hill, swinging, and enjoying the many animal statues.

It was a magnificent fall day...cool morning, warm afternoon, cool evening!!
