Miss Manners

By

We've been working really hard on our manners at home. Don't get me wrong. My kids are pretty much perfect. But, there is always room for improvement when it comes to manners. 

I have told the girls (as Gavin has beyond no interest),  that once they have reached the age of 8, they may go on dates with me and my BFF Michelle (whom the girls adore) ONCE their table manners have been perfected. Heaven has been working *really* hard and making some real improvements so this Sunday she got her first date out with the ladies. 

 She chose hibachi so we picked up Michelle & Erika (Bonus!) and headed to Sake Cafe after church. Heaven had to order her own food from the server, as well as make her request for additional needed items. We're also working on her SLOWING DOWN her eating as she tends to eat like a Hoover Vac on most nights. She did GREAT. She loved the Hibachi Show & eagerly chatted our ears off with tales from her Orlando trip & excitements of the new school year. 

Michelle got to be the final "judge" of her behavior, and Heaven was very relieved to hear she will be invited back, though Michelle did give her a few tips! She is already planning our next excursion.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success!

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
