Pumpkins and cats tails and zombies oh my!

There are alot of things going on in the Hardman house! Oh goodness. We have been busy painting, moving our stuff from down stairs to upstairs, organization like crazy, winterizing the house (an awesome thank you to my sweet nephew who came to help us with that!) and much more. I should make a post everyday to keep up with the many things that are going on. Hopefully soon after Christmas I will be able to post some house pics. I got the sad news yesterday that my desk will not be done until shortly before Christmas. It is going to be quite the project for my nephew! I am very excited to get it going and can't wait to have it completed!

As for right now I thought I would update the happenings of the most recent holiday. We went riding with my brother and nephew, to the pumpkin patch, carved pumpkins, went to witches night out/made carmel apples (that was just me!) and had a murder mystery party. It was all so much fun!!! I could go on all night about all of the activities so to save myself (and all of you) time I will just let the pics say it all...

The past few weeks I have had the chance to go to my nephews football games. The past season's I have not been able to go due to me being in school. This season has come and gone and I cannot believe it is almost over. I have tried to put in an effort to make it to these games to show him support from more than just his parents. I cannot believe that Chad will be graduating in a short 8 months. I want him to be able to cherish these types of things, I can only hope that I will be able to help him capture the moments. There is only one more game which happens to not only be their rival but also his cousins attend this school and all 3 of them will be participating in one way or another. I am hoping to get some great shots and for it to not be bitter cold! Wish me luck!

Here are ALOT of pics of the past games that I have been able to attend.

The big T all lite up during the game

Just over a week ago, they had their last home game. At the last home game of the year they present awards for all of the seniors as a tribute that they season is coming to an end. Here is all of the seniors.

Sr appreciation

This is the "are you kidding me???" look. Love it!

I love this photo! It show the moment of true action... no pain, no gain!

This is probably my favorite photo that I took. To me this shows the true love that a father has for his child. It shows that Chad does not want to disappoint his dad. He is listening intently. I just can't describe how I feel when looking at this photo but this photo sends so many emotions through me. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

Cam- It is just so hard to shoot into the sun!

My brother does not smile a 'true' smile. I love that I was able to catch this in a picture!

This picture looks awesome blown up. You can see the detail on his face.

My nephew Jayce

He knew I was taking this picture. I either get the finger (from his dad, oh and I tease him that I am going to start a photo file on facebook titled "the finger" from him flipping em off so much) or I get the tongue.

My nephew Kaleb. This kid is so photogenic. I go down on to the field to take pictures and he wanted to come hang out down there so his mom let him come hang out with me the whole game. He was very excited and and was such a good kid. He stayed right by my side the entire time and did not get in the way of me or the football team. He was even more excited when during half time, as the team was walking past us, Chad came and gave him a big hug. He loves the football players!

Yes that is 2 pairs of sunglasses

Too cool!

Such a cute kid.

Love this picture too. This was more of the senior appreciation.

More Sr. appreciation. Chad with mom and dad.

Laugh of the day

So I was on facebook today and my cousin decided to post a funny status. I wanted to share it all with you but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to 'share' it. So I will type is. B is my cousin and D is her dad (my uncle) It goes like this:


B is wondering, does anyone speak rice krispie? Cause I can't figure out what they are saying to me every morning -- I am pretty sure they are quite angry today.

D: I speak rice krispie. Their vocabulary is very simple and consists of only three words. Snap, crackle, pop, not necessarily in that order. If you pour beer in em they slurr their words which may sound like snatch, craple, poop, not necessarily in that order. If ya need any further enlightenment on rice krispie etiquette, let me know.

Their a great snap, crackle, pop when ya mix em with frosted flakes.

Try em with chocolate milk : Snappy, crackly, poppy... ya man!

Next time they get angry, put a lid on em and ya can drowned em as well as suffocate em then eat their limp lifeless soggy bodies.

B: I see you have a better relationship with breakfast food. I will have to talk to you on this subject more often. How close are you to captain crunch?

D: Well the food industry should automatically give a free box of it to any one who has ever crashed a car in moments of the occasion

B: I agree with that but I'm not sure they would.


Maybe this a moment that you had to be there to see unfolding (or to know the people) but man this sure cracked me up!!!! It is a classic. I wish I could be as witty as some people I know and come up with all the wall stuff like this!

My recent guilty pleasure

For those of you who don't know, I have been on a battle of being healthier without feeling the pressure of committing to specific amounts of pounds or going to the gym so many times a week. I have a very busy schedule and when I commit to stuff like that I get stressed. However I am doing weight watchers without paying for weight watchers. I have my moments sometimes. My weight has always been a battle and it always will be, but I have found something that I look forward to every day that fits within my 'points' budget!


Starbucks oatmeal!!!!! (with a side of passion tea lemonade with raspberry that is 0 points!!! A drink that I devour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I have issues with textures of food. I have tried oatmeal in different varieties. It smells so good but the texture makes me gag so I just don't eat it. I was hesitant to try it one again. I have no idea what it is with this oatmeal but I love it and it doesn't make me gag!!!! I crave this breakfast every morning. This is what makes my days go a whole lot better. Starbucks Oatmeal.... YYYYUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

You have GOT to be kidding me!!

Really?!?!? I am going to be a complainer for just a minute, everyone has their moments. Just when I THINK things are starting too look up and life is coming back together... BAM!!! it shatters in to a million pieces waiting for me to pick them up again and put them back together. I realize that there are people who are in worst situations than I am but I am SICK of getting the short end of the stick when I work so freakin hard! This is really some sick joke and I am not laughing anymore...
