Sunday At The Webers

When we woke up Sunday morning, the house was full at Grandma's. There was Grandma in her bed, Sawyer and me in our bed, Alex and Charlotte in their bed, Melissa on one couch, and Jake on the other couch. Alex and Jake headed to Wagon Wheel for breakfast. Melissa headed home and changed. Then her and I cooked lunch. Grandma and her poor foot... we tried to keep her foot up as much as possible... she can be a stubborn one though so she didn't listen much.

Sawyer helping in the yard...

Liss and I used the grill. I have never grilled before. We figured it out.

We grilled pork chops....and they were delicious.

We had a crew for lunch even though we were planning on just having 6 of us. People just kept coming so we just kept feeding them :) That's the glory of Grandma's house.

After awhile, once Mallory came out with Melia and Uncle Richard, we headed down to the garden to pick pumpkins for Mal's wedding decor.

She's so pretty.

Searching for pumpkins....

Charlotte was going to help.

They found a pumpkin for Wayne. Can that smile get any bigger???

Alex and Didi were picking tomatoes for homemade tomatoe juice. Grandma CLEARLY was not sitting with her foot up :) We have the evidence, doctor.

Alex picked this....

She got a pumpking! Stinky cut her one!

Tomato pickers.

The old house that Dad and his siblings grey up in.

They really love each other.

Alex went fishing with Stinky.

Sawyer loved it.

Learning to fish...

Oh this face....gets me every time.

Look who we found on our way back to the house!!

Charlotte was "wunning" back to "Maw Maw's" house.

While everyone played in the yard, Grandma hung out with her foot up like a good patient :)

Dad came over from the Villa. He rode back with Eric. He and Alex drove back to Metamora together. The kids and I left later that night. It was a great weekend as usual. Family, Fun, Outside...

A Sport Filled Saturday

On Saturday, September 14, we woke up at Grandma Ann's house. Mary and Anne both got up with me and the kids. It was nice to have so much help at 7 am :) Mary and Chad headed back home bc they had a full weekend back home. We stayed down and Alex decided to come down Saturday when he got off of work.

Katie had a regional softball game so we all decided to go to it.

Charlotte rode into town with Grandma Ann and Aunt MeeMee.

Sawyer rode to town with his Momma once he woke up from his nap.

Katie was a maniac on the field :)

Aunt Kathy is famous for always having apples with her. Charlotte knows that Aunt Kat will have snacks and what not for her :)

Sawyer just walked right over and crawled up on Grandma's lap. He actually does this often now.

Sweet Sawyer kisses...

It's so easy for these kiddos to be spoiled around everyone. They get to do whatever they want :)

Aunt Kathy and Liss after the game.

Sawyer watching the win...

Great game Katie!!!

Sibling love.

After a fabulous win, we headed to the Wagon Wheel for lunch with everyone that went to the game. For whatever reason, it took an hour to get our food. Then the food I ordered was too greasy and made me sick. The kids were pretty good considering they needed a nap in the worst way.

We said goodbye to Aunt MeeMee. She headed back to Jeff City, MO after lunch.

We went back to Grandma's house to play for awhile. Then we took the kids down to Aunt Kathy's house for a bath and to play. Alex met us at Aunt Kathy's. We drove down the lane to Grandma's house and picked her up. Then we headed up to the high school football game. It was Alumni Night so all of our family that had played was getting announced. Mom and Dad even came over from the Villa so Dad could get announced. Even though Grandma had just had surgery, we were able to get her parked close enough that she didn't have to walk far...and we got in for free.

Here is Dad walking onto the field.

Uncle Jim is in the green Tshirt, jean shorts, and grey hat.

Jake is at the end walking out.

Dad was pretty happy to be in his old stomping grounds...

Alex and Charlotte had a pretty front row seat for the game.

Melissa brought Wayne up to the game.

She let him out of the stroller and he was EVERYWHERE. 

But he was super excited to see his Great Grandma Ann.

I love this picture.

He was so happy to see her.

Charlotte was scared of the person dressed as a Hawk. (She  just really hates humans dressed as animals...or anything other than a humna.) Sawyer was tired and needed to go to sleep.

We left after the third quarter. Alex picked up pizza for us and we headed to Grandma's. Alex, Jake and Melissa went out that night. I stayed at Grandma's with her and the babies.

It was a busy but fun Saturday! :) Oh, just love living and breathing in a small town...

A Night At The O With The Fam

On September 13, Mary and I headed down to Grandma Ann's house to hang with the family and go to the Oasis (a bar/restaurant) in her town where a friend from high school's band was playing. Jake and the Naked Truth came up from Nashville and was playing at the bar that night. 

We went up to the Oasis for supper. Alex had to work so it was just me and the kids. We went with Grandma and Mary and planned to meet everyone up there.

Me and the best things I ever did.

When the band got started, so did Charlotte.

Check out her sweet dance move here. She always finds friends. She was dancing around with all of those kids...and she had no idea who they were.

Grandma had had surgery the week before on her foot so she was kind of gimping around.

She was a dancing fool. She got VERY mad when I made her leave. She cried and carried on because she didn't want to leave her friends. Sawyer was tired and just needed to get to bed.

Didi and her two beautiful girls.

I took the kids to Grandma's house around 8 pm. I got them both to sleep as Grandma and Katie were getting out to Grandma's. They listened out for the kids in case they woke up. I prayed they wouldn't.... (and the didn't.)

I headed back up to the O to hang with all of my cousins.

Can you spy the creep in this picture???

Mary loves to photobomb....

Jake and Alicia

Creep in the back again.

Anne Marie came from Jeff City to see all of us. She got to the bar around 10 and hung with us for an hour then headed out to Grandma's to see her and her gimpy foot.

Siblings... Aunt Kathy had already gone home and Uncle Jim had other plans. I think Rich was technically gone too :)

We were posing for a cousins picture waiting for Caleb, Jake, and Chad. Kurtis was just standing weird in front of me so I did this inappropriate thing. It made me awkward. She said, "Oh Sarah. No."

He loves his girl cousins (and Alicia)

This is a good picture of all of us.

Cousins. Love my cousins.

Mary is a good time.

So, when Jake was done singing, I was walking around with my big mom camera around my neck taking funny pictures. This guy asked if I was working for the paper. I said "yes. Of course. Would you like for me to take your picture?" He said "Yes." So I did. He didn't like the picture and wanted me to erase it. I said, "No, front page."

So then the longer I stood there I just kept thinking, "I know this guy from somewhere." I kept trying to place him. Finally I asked him where he was from, etc. Turns out he was a bouncer at a bar I used to go to frequently in college. I knew I knew him. Sad that 9 yrs after graduating I still remember the bouncers.

Great job Jake! He really sang great!

After his show, we got to hang out with him and his wife and have a few drinks. They actually had a night where they didn't have to worry about there kids since his wife's family is from the next town over. It was great to see them :)

Cousin Shots!!

Check out frowning girl with the arrow pointed at her. Do you think she is mad she wasn't getting a shot??? This picture is priceless in my head.

Didi took a shot too. Uncle Grant was super excited.

I love this pic. Rich is serious. Uncle Grant is laughing hysterically in the background.

Uncle Rich was super excited about his new phone. I wanted so bad to play a trick on him that included his phone....

We had such a fun night. It really was great. We closed the bar down. Chad drove Mary and I back to Grandma's house. Her and Anne were waiting up for us. It was so nice to just get to have fun with my family :) We are always a good time!
