A Freaking Trumpet??!!??

We hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. We had a wonderful, lazy weekend filled with family, friends, some rainy day movie marathons and even a bit of shopping. It was just the low key weekend I was looking for.

It was not quiet however.

So this happened

Saturday, the mini Lady Brandts & Ava worked for Nana at Flordiatown Station. The store is closing, and they are holding yard sale's on Saturdays to clear out the remaining items. Nana paid the girls each $10 for helping and they were also allowed to pick one item from the store to bring home with them. Ava picked a doll, Annabelle picked a tea set, and Heaven picked a trumpet. A FREAKING TRUMPET! 


Not only did she pick a trumpet...but this is a USED trumpet...so basically she spent a large portion of the weekend making loud trumpetish sounds from a slightly bent...not fully functioning...key sticking trumpet that a strangers mouth and spit have been on. Thanks Nana. Thanks a lot.


Gavin thoroughly enjoyed the college football season kicking back off this weekend. He got to watch his Gators claim their first victory on Saturday, but he watched pretty much any game that he could catch on TV as well. He even watched the Nole game with us on Monday evening...though he claimed he wanted both teams to loose.

Gavin was not fan of our new porch decor. He was also not a fan of the AP poll that came out this week putting FSU ahead of UF!!





We decided that since Gavin has a room  here...he can continue to use the front door...at least on non game days.



This is the girls doing the Seminole "chop" clearly we've got some work to do.

The Who's Who of Whoville

 The girls had their church Christmas Program this weekend. They performed at both morning services and were equally amazing each time around! They've been practicing for the mast few months, and all their hard work most definitely paid off.

Can Do Kids

Check out these AWESOME mid terms!! All A'for Annabelle and A/B's for Gavin and Heaven!!! Dang these kids are smart! Clearly I'm wearing off in them.....

Treaters

Here are the Branditos all ready to hit the streets trick or treating. We had a great time  & much to the kids pleasure came home with loads of candy. Of course their intake will be limited...but they haven't considered that just yet  (John already went through and claimed most of the kitkats) Gavin had trouble deciding exactly what he wanted to be this year. His top two picks, were Link from Zelda & a skeleton.  As you can see, in the end he decided on a skeleton. His costume was pretty cool & the bones were textured so you could feel them. The mask was short lived... thankfully... because honestly, it was a little scary... oh, and because it almost caused several accidents due to the limited visibility it provided. Heaven dressed as Abbey Bominable from Monster High. She's really into Monster High right now as I'm told it's very "cool" unfortunately her "cool" parents find most of the dolls a bit inappropriate, so really A...
