A GREAT LEAFY DAY!!!!!

Today I had the wonderful pleasure of watching two of Tara's kids. Britnee and Cody! I got all the kids bundled up for the COLD and we went out side to rake Grandpa's leaves. We invited our neighbor Dallon over to join in the fun too. After a couple minutes I realized I had over dressed us all. Our mittens and hats came off! It was a Beautiful Day!!! The kids were Great Help for a bit anyways lol! They couldn't wait to jump into the big pile we had made. I think I got some Great PICS. The rest of the time they kept themselves entertained over on Curtis's Clubhouse. Thank you Christensens!!!! So I raked up the rest of the front yard leaves!!! I don't think the kids even knew they had been working!! hehe My secret plan worked!!! LOL Anyways It was just a Great Day! The kids had lots of FUN and the Mom got lots accomplished!!!!! Oh and to finish the Great day off Tara and Jaycee brought us home YUMMY PIZZA from Sams Club and me a big fountain DR. Pepper!!!! Thank you Tara and Jaycee!!! and Thank you all my leafy helpers!!!!!

Halloween 2008

I love Halloween! It is such a fun time to get creative, eat candy, go to fun parties and Dress up. All of which I love to do! Although I wish my kids would just eat all the Candy and let Brit and I decide what they are going to dress up as. I love dressing them up in themes. A couple years ago Brit and I did Wizard of Oz! It was so cute! We had tin man, scarecrow, the lion, Dorothy, Witch, and Glinda. This year we wanted to do Peter Pan but Brax had something else in mind. He insisted on being a ninja - and what a tough one he was. Braunsn wasn't sure about being Captain Hook either but we still convinced him to be a pirate, only because the rest of the fam dressed up piratey for the murder party. He ended up being such a cute 1st mate!! How Glitterific!!! Saige and Charleigh were two of the most Beautiful Fairies! Saige was Tinkerbell and Charleigh was Silver Mist from the new Tinkerbell movie. And little Ridge was a lost Boy dressed up in a lion costume! We had lots of fun going to the school fall festival and to the KOA Halloween Trunk or Treat! The kids got lots of Candy! I hope I don't eat it all! LOL Thanks to my dear friend Ashley I was able to make it through both these nights with my sanity! Happy Halloween Everyone!!!!

Murder of the Mateys!!

You will always remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow - Pirates of the Caribbean

You are without a doubt the worst pirate I’ve ever heard of. - Pirates of the Caribbean

"Life is pretty good and why wouldn't it be? I'm a Pirate, After all."

Ahoy, Ye Mateys and Scallywags! What a great night with friends and family!
