New Song

By Ryan (he came home from school today singing this . . .)





Little Ronny Foo Foo hopping through the forest, scooping up the field lice and bopping them on the head.



Down came the good fairy and she said,



Little Ronny Foo Foo I don't want to see you scooping up the field lice and bopping them on the head, I gave you three chances and YOU BLEW IT, poof, you are a goon!



I love that kid!

Move Over Martha!

I am NOT a crafty person! I don't have the patience for it, or the time usually, but something about Christmas makes me want to get my craft on and sew, and paint and glue things.


My friend made up this cute idea for a Christmas Countdown, I changed it a bit but I think it turned out really great.
We are trying to focus more this year on Christ in Christmas and the real reason for the season, so I found this Christmas Calender Countdown on line,
there is a scripture and some challenge like find a person to do something nice for today, or show your parents you love them and pick a room in the house to clean up, and puzzle piece for everyday, that will eventually look like the manger scene. It was the perfect thing for my little stockings.

I put a puzzle piece and scripture in every one on the 24th we will read the Christmas story in Luke. The kids are having a lot of fun with it!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!

We had an awesome Thanksgiving! Hope you all did too =)

Angel Baby

So Jillian's blessing was a couple Sundays ago. And I really didn't get any good pictures . . . Sad! Terry leaves about 2 hours before I do, so I am scrambling in the morning trying to get everyone ready and out the door in time, so pictures before we left weren't going to happen. Then after her blessing we all split to go our separate ways to classes and meetings and so no pictures happened then. The ones I have are just my attempt when we got home before the kids all shed there church duds. ANYWAY, the blessing was great Terry did an awesome job as usual AND if you can believe it, I actually made that fabulous dress (pat myself on the back!) Actually I had my mom (mega seamstress extraordinaire) hanging over my shoulder every step of the way saying, cut here, pin this, pull this string, sew here, so I guess in reality I just demonstrated my incredible ability to follow instruction :)
Turned out SOOO gorgeous all the same, and the dress isn't to shabby either!





Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

There is TONZ more fun stuff to snag too! Check it out!

Finally!! Halloween . . . Ready, GO . . .

Kids First Piano Recital Baby's First Halloween (super cute outfits Kelli and Cha!) Carving Pumpkins (all of which we grew in our own little pumpkin patch, there were tons more but I didn't get any pictures, hey, busy around here =) TA DA Pumpkin by Chance, dumb dog Caramel Apples, a Halloween must! We melted colored chocolate for the kids to drizzle over the apples and make them cute, yeah, drizzle is not a word they understand Nana came over early on Halloween with fun crafts and yummy lunch, mummy dogs and orange floats, Thanks Nana! I did make orange dinner for Halloween, another must, but again no pictures, it was cute though and yummy . . . just pretend again!Halloween Carnival at the church (we did trunk-or-treat that night too, but again, no pictures) Getting Ready to hit the town Trick-or-Treating We found out our kids really don't like trick-or-treating, who knew there were kids alive you had to coax into going to the next door. Next year we will get them all dressed up take pictures, hit the neighbors house then come home and watch Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown and eat all the candy we bought for the trick-or-treaters who never showed up at our door!!! Funny Girl, Sitting at the table one day Raegan says, "Mom, do you like my ring? This is the ring from when I was married to a wizard . . . he broke up with me, but I still love him." random Janie, all day, every day, a week before Halloween, "I a meermaid"

The end, pheeff we made it!
