Tis... The... Cold Season

I'm Not sure if You have Walked into Your Local Smiths store

Or any other Store for that matter..

If you have,

I'm sure that wall of Cinnamon spice has slapped you in the face.

and made you realize that its time to get your butt in gear

and start buyin for Christmas..

or for many

Even put up your Christmas Tree!

For us Bascoms..

It hasn't really taken any effect.

Other than..

I'm sure by that look you all know where we're headin..

Ahhh yes.. The Vet, But This isn't just any visit to the Dr. For Tuck

Its his LAST one For the Year... Or lets hope at least.

Tuck did Awesome at the Dr.- Met a few friends, Nipped at the Nurse, and Got a pretty new Tag..

I think he earned whats coming..

PETCO run!

Now.. I went into this expecting us to go up and down

every isle at LEAST 5 times.

But Tuck knew Exactly what he wanted,

when he chose it I thought..

 "oh no.. drop it.. drop it.. please"

I tried showing him other toys and treats.. 

 but man that pup has attitude.

he would sniff and stick his snobby nose in the air and proceed to play with Decision #1...

So being the nice push over of a mom I am .. we made the purchase and went home..

I'm glad at least one of us is happy with it..

Let me Explain.

Tucks weight for this week was 35 lbs..

 the weight of the rope ball = 35 lbs!

Tuck Loves it.

It loves Tuck

Tuck Is black

The ball also has black.

Lets face it... It was meant to be. 

Now for the undoubting self explanitory questions of the title..

Jake has Been sick all week, with

 head aches,

 sniffy noses,

swollen eyes,

and a

scratchy voice

Attractive.. I Know..

Well.. I got it Too!

Who would have thought Living with someone who is sick Ironically enough gets you sick!!!!

Damn!

I blame this...

Well that didn't stop us!

This Pretty little DI purchase was my weekend project.

I've been looking Everywhere for a long dresser like this for our bedroom and finally

came across this $15 one at the DI

While sniffing and nose dripping I painted the purchase and am quite pleased

Finished Product pictures to come!

(its currently drying in my Garage)

Meanwhile...

Handy Husband Jake Was working on our formally known as

 "random overly large Closet space"

and Transforming it into our future main level bathroom!

It still needs quite a bit of work but so far

we've hung half the bead board

Framed in the mirror

and laid the tile

Like I said " it still needs quite a bit of work"

Finished Product picture To come.

These are our typical weekend outfits.. Don't judge

and know we actually do get ready for the day... Occasionally.

This is the extent of that Cinnamon spice Effect..

Here is a quick sneak peak of our Christmas Family Pictures

Look For your Christmas Card in the Mail!

We're so thankful for the Brother in Law John Boy for taking these pictures!

We're so excited about them!

Have a good Week!
