Card Swap!!

Hey there I just wanted to post my newest creation. Some gals in my ward are doing a card exchange. If you have ever done one of these then you know that you make 12 cards to swap with others. I love this Idea cause you get 12 different cards with so many different Ideas. I just love how my cards turned out. Hope they will like them too...

Happy Halloween!!!

Tonight was a very special night for us we celebrated being a family even though James was not here. James was able to see the kids in their costumes before we left for the Trunk or Treat Party at church.. While he slept he left his computer on so we could call him when we were ready... The kids were having fun showing Daddy their costumes Katelynn (BATMAN) Austin (SPIDER MAN), and Savannah (FAIRY PRINCESS)... This is his Holiday, and hopefully we were able to bring him into the fun. After we got home we went around the block and the kids were so great for me; they stayed with me and did not run off like I had a fear of. Then we ran home so we could pass out our candy to the trick or treaters. The kids loved to see other costumes, and taking turns passing out candy even Savannah got a kick out of saying bye bye to all the little ones.. We settled in and spent the rest of the evening watching the movie "Journey to the middle of the earth" which I really really enjoyed.. So Happy Halloween to all of our friends and family Especially you James. We love you and miss you terribly.

Visiting teaching goodies!!

Well the fact that I am married to a man who thinks that Halloween is like the best holiday ever... I have always tried my talents making things for my sisters in my wards for holiday times... Here is my newest creation I am so excited to get better at it I was hoping to make the cookies more decorative, but of course with three kids I just had to get them frosted fast.. LOL here they are what do you think? There are three suckers in this mix along with the cookies Yummo!!!

Celebrating James' Birthday!!

So since James is not here to celebrate the day with us. We decided to do what he loves and dedicate it to my man and his day...So honey I hope we made you proud. I cut the top, and then let the kiddo's go at it getting the gooey brains out of the pumpkin muahaha... Then when that was done I had the task of carving a two sided pumpkin one side is traditional and the other well not so much,,, Darth Vader I hope I can pull it off I did do a drawing first then I used that to kind of cut around it... So Happy Birthday baby hope you love our pumpkin this year its soooo spooky... So what do you think? Did I do a good job on the starwars /funny theme... It's cute...and the #1 thing is the kids love it. we miss our pumpkin carver... Love you baby

Just a thought!!

Have you ever been doing the dishes, and started by making sure that your youngest is not around to be heard or seen? Then rush to get them done quickly to find out that they can hear you unloading it no matter where they are in the house, and still manage to rush to help you by grabbing the glass dishes first. Errr it drives me crazy!!! I have tried over the years with all of them to re-direct their help with giving them the plastic dishes; only to find that they still go for the glass ones.. Ha I have learned to try and get all the glass out first. Still sometimes just not quick enough!!!

Playgroup Halloween Party!!

Ok so I have a predicament with Savannah and her first Halloween Party!! I had to drop Savannah off for the first 45minutes of the party only because I had an appointment during the time, but I did bring my camera for when I did get there praying that I did not miss a whole lot. I finally arrive and they were all in back running around having a ball. I started to take pictures of my little fairy princess, and low and behold the silly blond that I am forgot to put back the memory card that was still loaded into my computer at home. So here is Savannah in her costume but not at the party. I know she had lots of fun. Thanks Jana for having it at your house, and for letting Savannah come play. (she was talking to daddy when I took this picture isn't she cute!)

Eagle Dollar!!

Katelynn came home today with an "Eagle Dollar", which is an award system at her school for doing good works. She and her friend returned some jackets to the office that were left in the girls bathroom. If she earns enough she gets to watch a movie with others. Good Job Kiddo!!!
