Sleepover!

This past weekend Michael, Elsa, Jon and Lily came out to Manhattan to visit. Michael and Elsa went to see a play at K-State that one of his former students was performing in Saturday night. It was a great night to get to watch the kids and I could tell that Peyton was having a great time with her cousins. I blew up the air mattress in the living room that turned into a trampoline. I was so happy that they were all able to come out for a short visit. Jonny said that this was the best "Sleepover Ever!" and that he was going to miss me. He is such a sweet boy and I love him.

I thought that it was so cute that I put the bed together for Jon and Lily and Peyton jumped right in and laid in the middle between them.

Are you ready for some Football?

K-State Football!!!

Fall has arrived and it is football season here in Manhattan.

Here we are all heading into the stadium with a sleepy girl to watch the first game on the season

It didn't take long for her to wake up to join the celebration

Tons of pictures from Summer Time Fun!

Where did summer go?

Here are a ton of pictures that I took over the summer and have been really bad about not posting them for you all.

One of Peyton's silly faces

Mom and Dad were doing yard work and this was the only way we could keep an eye on her. At least she seemed to enjoy herself being contained.
I have to laugh that Peyton looks like a natural in the front seat with her phone ready for the road trip

Peyton up on the farm having a great time with the baby kittens

She was so excited to see the kittens... and No we did not bring one home

Eye to Eye

Not so sure and needed her Daddy

Peyton and Cody swimming in the pool

Peyton talking with Grandpa Yoder and Daddy about how much she loves swimming

Loving the sweet corn!

This was a first...Peyton has never fallen asleep in her highchair so we had to get the camera out. Not sure what we did this day but she was wiped out.

Peyton dancing...the radio is attached to the cabinet to the right of the sink and she always goes and stands in that corner waiting for me to turn the music on so she can dance.

Peyton was having so much fun this summer swimming and has no fears. Watch her stick her face in the water to blow bubbles with her cousin Cody.

Happy Birthday Grandpa Horton!

Today is my Grandpa Horton's Birthday and I wanted to wish him a "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" I love you and I hope that you have a wonderful day.

Peyton wanted to wish her Great-Grandpa a Happy Birthday too!

Peyton's Play List...

*Beyonce - Single Ladies

*Britney Spears - Womanizer

*Miley Cyrus - Party in the USA

*Kanye West - Heartless

*Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling

There are many songs that Peyton is a fan of, but these are the songs right now that she is a fan of listening to right now. It makes me laugh so hard to watch how her dance moves change to each of them and it really sounds like she is singing along during parts of the songs. At least I can say that this girl has good taste in music and Mom and Dad have no complaints to listen to them either. It makes it hard sometimes while I am driving because I want to turn around a watch her.

ALL THE SINGLE LADIES!

Sorry the video is so dark...it was night time and we are trying to get Peyton to go to sleep but we had to do a little dancing first.

Trip to Omaha Zoo...

Back in July we took Peyton to the Omaha Zoo! It was so much fun and we could not have asked for better weather. It was during the time that we had cooler weather and it was so nice to walk around the zoo and not be sweating to death. Peyton had a blast and loved all the animals. We always knew once she saw them because she would say "Ooooh!" and have a huge smile. It was well worth the trip to see her so excited. We stopped in Mount Ayr Friday night to stay with Grandma and Grandpa Yoder and Uncle Drew was in town and they decided to go with us to the Zoo. It was great to have them all be there with us.

Peyton and Daddy checking out the monkey hanging in the tree. Can you see it?

Poor Uncle Drew. He was holding Peyton while she had an accident. It gave the rest of us a good laugh! For some reason Peyton was just filling her diapers like crazy and we ended up having to go through 2 outfits that day. Peyton was our Pee Pot Johnny on this trip!

Peyton checking out the Penguins. She loved them and wanted to touch them so badly This was so cool standing under the water tank and watching sting rays and sharks swimming all around us. Peyton pointing letting us know about the fish and saying "fish"

Loved the jelly fish. Wanting to touch them as you can see.

Peyton and Daddy checking out the elephants

Loved the gorillas

Happy girl at the zoo!

Long day and Peyton couldn't hang on to the end. She was wiped out from having so much fun
