Pumpkins

So we carved pumpkins last night. and I forgot to take pictures so I went outside tonight and took pictures of the finished products. from left to right. Kaylie's Wolf howling at the moon, Kendra's Mummy, Kalista's Cat, Stockton's Bat sitting on a pumpkin.

Halloween Fun

So the first 2 weekends in October the kids got to do some fun activities. the first weekend they decorated pumpkins with their Grandma Gwen, Grandpa Tim, and Aunt Brandy. which they all had a blast doing, they were so proud of their pumpkins.




Then the next weekend we made sugar cookies and decorated them. and again Gwen, Tim and Brandy came over to help decorate them. they all had fun and enjoyed eating the toppings and frosting while decorating and they enjoyed eating some of them afterwards.
I didn't decorate any while they were all decorating I was busy making more icing cuz I didn't make enough the first time. so I decorated the few cookie that were left over at the end.

Gonna try to keep posting

So I haven't blogged in awhile obviously but I'm gonna try to do it again. but you have to bear with me cuz I have a very trouble making 2 year old and a computer hogging 9 year old so I don't have much time to blog.

Jenny's Birthday




So I decided I really wanted to see Jenny and her kids, so since her birthday was Friday the 21st. I decided to be nice and throw her a birthday party. I decorated my kitchen up kinda cute with stuff to entertain the kids, bought cupcakes, ice cream and presents. she came along with Shelley, Hannah and Missy and we had a party, it was fun. I'm glad I gave her a party, she had a good time and all the kids got to play with their cousins they haven't seen for awhile. I also enjoyed that I got to hang out with her and just sit and chat which I haven't been able to do for what seems like forever and I was missing that. so I would say over all we had a great time.

This is a video of the kids singing Happy Birthday and Alissa says at the end that Jenny smells like a monkey I thought it was funny so I'm sharing it.
