Glad you could stop by my party and visit with me a bit. Come in, take your shoes off, and grab a chair. Care for a cocktail?
How about enjoying some appetizers while I tell you about everyone here at The Pumkin Patch.
For those who don't know me, let me introduce myself. I'm Trista.
I'm a SAHM by day and I work part time a few nights a week. While I love being at home with my kids, my job provides me with some time alone and some extra cash. Both of which I consider valuable to a mom.Speaking of kids, I should introduce you to them.
This handsome little man here is Zach.
This handsome little man here is Zach.
He's 4 1/2. He's a smart little man. Can write all of his alphabet, count to 50, 10 in Spanish, he's been bragged on as being the smartest in his class, he's a mama's boy, a wonderful big brother, and loves to cuddle. He holds steady to the idea that Hannah Montana is his girlfriend. Hey, Dream big or go home!Then we have the Queen of the Castle. Her name is Reagan, she's 2 1/2.
She's such a goofball. Yet she's EXTREMELY loving, she's a daddy's girl, she loves to love on people, she loves playing with her dolls, she loves her dog Trixie (even kisses her goodnight). She loves Harry Potter (LOL) and Ratatouille. She is all for anything Pink!!!!
And since I didn't have these children alone, it's only fitting I introduce the Man of the House. The most amazing husband and father in the world, the hardest working man I know, my husband, Mark.
Well I hope you've enjoyed yourself! We've loved having you over. Don't forget to come back now, ya here. :D
Also, don't forget to join me here next week for The Big Spring Clean!!!





Welcome to the Party! Make Yourself at Home!!!

I love the stripes! My daughter is very loving, much like yours, if there is someone sitting in the floor with no one sitting in their lap, she wants to sit there and get to know them! My son is a momma's boy and I just know he is going to be very smart! Looks like we have lots in common. Happy Blog Party!
