Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for! I read a post over at Steece's Pieces that has inspired me to find the positive in the negative more then I do.
Head over to Suz's blog and read her post.

Mom, I hope you are having a wonderful trip! Enjoy every minute of it. We miss you, but we are thankful you have been given this awesome opportunity.

The Ray Family, I wish we could all be celebrating Thanksgiving together...but we will have to wait for Christmas. I hope you have a very peaceful, stress-free time! Give lots of kisses and hugs to my Izzy, Luke, & Matthias.

The Ellis's, I hope you have a safe trip to KC. We love you and hope to celebrate and be thankful with you on Friday!! xoxo

The Bridge's, we hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with the Grandparents. We can't wait to see you and celebrate together on Friday!

What a Sweet Helper!

I have such a sweet little helper! This used to be his worst enemy...but now he cries when I try and put it away.

Glad It's Monday!! What??

Yes, I said it! I'm glad it's Monday. Even though I have 3 marvelous children and they were very good all weekend....I was delighted to kiss their pretty little faces and send them off to school and daycare this morning!
You see... Clint left early Friday morning for a boat race at Canyon Lake in TX. He took my neighbor's husband as well...so all weekend Kerri and I joined forces.
We had a good time and there were no major meltdowns per say. The kids played from house to house and Kerri and I actually got some alone time to watch a movie on Saturday night.

Clint and Jeff came in 3rd and had a great time in TX.

Are you kidding?

I Love Fall

How pretty are the colors of this? It's on my way home from work, so I see it every day and always say, "how pretty".

Just thought I would pass it on.

Family Halloween Pic

Complete with red eyes and all....

Jr. was horrified by Blake's costume! I felt so bad.

Halloween 2008

Halloween was fun this year (not that it isn't every year, but a 17 month old brings a new kind of fun to the "party")
So, I knew Jr. wouldn't be very excited about his costume seeing that he doesn't even like to have long sleeved shirts or pants on....so I decided to start slow.

First was the little feet....hard to see in the pic...but they are black slippers.....


Then it was the black tights with the feet.....

Then came the dreaded body....(i didn't have the undershirt on yet)....and you can tell by his face he was NOT amused!

Then the hood....and undershirt.... I was not his favorite person after that! Poor little skunk!
BUT, then all was good in the world again when I pulled out a Dum-Dum sucker....From then on (and after 5 or 6 suckers) he was fine...

And was experiencing his first SUGAR RUSH! We missed having Laynie and Blake, but we got to see them for a few min and take some pics.
