Happy Halloween!

The kids enjoyed the trick or treating this year. It almost didn't happen though.
Bear came down with a tummy bug tonight just as we were getting him ready to go.
We tried not to stay out too long, and Jeff ended up bringing him home a little early, but both of them are enjoying a massive amount of candy! We had ghouls and goblins ringing our doorbell long after the candy was gone and the lights were turned off. Here it is 11:30 at night and we can still hear kids running through the neighborhood. Our neighborhood had several houses that went all out in decorations. Including one house with hot cocoa, and another house with a fogger, strobe light, bubbles, loud music, and syncronized lights. There were people dancing in the driveway! We all had alot of fun. I just wish my Little Bear was feeling better.

I got the pictures!



Jessica emailed me all the low quality pictures today, and told me just to let her know which ones we want in high resolution. Well we narrowed it down to 25 pictures. I noticed that some that I remember her taking weren't there, so I'm assuming they just didn't turn out. Ohwell. So here's just a couple, so you can get a peek. I hope you like them as much as we do!


Getting Anxious

The kids are anxiously awaiting Halloween! Jeff always takes the day off, so we're planning a day of fun! Bug and Bear are both constantly asking if they can wear their costumes, and after I did a few alterations to the costumes, I think they're finally ready for the spooky night. I told the kids that I'd take them outside in their costumes today, and snap a few pictures. Minus the makeup of course. Right now Bug and I are fighting a nasty cold. I'm just hoping Bear doesn't get it by Friday. Hopefully Bug and I will be better by then.

This picture looks a little blurry when you click the link. It's just because of the size they made it.


Don't worry, I know this isn't a legit site. I don't care. It's just nice to be able to see what others think of my pictures.

Wheeler Farm

We went to the historical Wheeler Farm tonight and had some family pictures done. One of the Mommies, Jessica Lloyd, was practicing to go pro. She offered to take pictures of some of us Mommies completely free! I couldn't pass that up so I spoke with her last month, and I managed to get her last open spot in October! She took tons of pictures, and she's going to edit some of them and then give me a disk with the images on them. Starting next month, she'll be pro. We had lots of fun, and while reviewing the pictures, it appears that we got quite a few awesome ones! So... Pics coming soon! I can't wait!!!!

I would sell our house, so we could live in the mountains. I would also buy a nice big beach front home in Maui so we could go whenever we wanted. I would also pay off all the houses we owned and my parents house.

More Fall Fun!

The kids and I went outside for a small "photo shoot." Okay, I admit it, I'm trigger happy with the camera lately!!! I wanted to get some cute fall pictures before the rain and cold comes this weekend. So even though the weather was warm, I dressed the kids up and took tons of pictures. I was having so much fun. I only wish I had a better camera, instead of this broken old thing. A better background would have been good too, instead of the chain link fence, but I still love the pictures!

Loving her little brother!


He looks so sweet.
