Holidays

Well, the holidays are comming on FAST!! There is still so much to do!! I can't believe it has snuck up on me.......again!! Just a short update, I look forward to the holidays, seeing my kids and all the grandkids is the high light for me. I love it!! We won't be getting together for Thanksgiving this year Stephen and his family always go to Ivys family for Thanksgiving and this year Joe and his family go to Val's family but we will get them all for Christmas. I am so excited it is always exciting to watch the children's little faces as they open presents, and see there surprises! The older ones are always fun and this year will be especially fun for Joe and Val since Jacob understands whats going on. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and great holiday season!! Sorry no pictures, I know my daughter hates no pictures but the one at the very top is new!!

Halloween Fun

Here is Tianna she was a hippy. She took great delight in calling me up and letting me know she was going to dress like I did when I was young. She is convinced a was a hippy when I was younger! She was so darn cute! One lady there at the trunk or treat did say " oh my gosh, I had pants just like that!" I thought Tianna would die! Even though she gives me a hard time about hippy stuff, I don't think she really believed people dressed like that! Tianna with the cutest Elmo ever!

And this is Jacob. He was Horton the elephant. And what an awesome elephant he was!! His mom and dad say he put that costume on the week before Halloween and would not take it off!!

Another picture of the cutest, sweetest elephant around!!

Randy holding our little monkey!! And he is quite the monkey! He likes his papa to hold him and doesn't ever think we should leave.

More Halloween

We all went to Joe and Val's for trick or treating. They live in Ucon and everyone goes to the church building and backs in around the church and the kids go trunk or treat. I wasn't thinking it would be that great....I always took my kids out around the different neighborhoods, however, it was a blast. The kids got lots of candy and had tons of fun. Here are - left to right - Stephen Brandon, Dallen, Tianna, Joe and Randy. The guys sat on Joes truck and gave out candy while the girls took the kids around. This was after the older ones were done.
This is Riley, our little monkey he was so tired!! But he was such a cute monkey and he can do the monkey sounds!

This is Brandon, I believe he was the grim reaper.....pretty scarry guy!

Dallen was a dead guy risen from the grave. He can put on a pretty good show too!

Here is Jordan the cutest Elmo you ever saw!! He loves Elmo and when he walked there was a little music thingy in his pocket that played the elmo song.
