Family Photo


So we finally went and got a new family photo. the last time we had one taken Kendra was 3 months old so its been about 7 years.
we went to sears cuz they offed me a $100 photo package, and I've always liked how they work with my kids and get them to smile and how nice the pictures turn out. this time though it was all crap. we were there for 2 hours, the lady who started taking the pictures couldn't get Stockton to smile it took someone coming and taking over to make him smile. they took a few pictures with a white background that in the one good picture wasn't even all the way over. then they did the majority of the pictures with a black background. you couldn't see the outline of my hair or Kendra's hair with the black background and Shan was in a black shirt which completely blended in so you couldn't see his shirt.
oh and the $100 photo package turned out to be 1 10x13 and a photo CD, the photo CD with 1 picture on it cost $80 which is crazy. so I
had to pay for the other pictures I got. I will have them on Dec 2. its on;y 1 other photo other than the main family picture.
oh also there's a weird circle on my throat on the photo which is like a glare or something not sure where it came from, but it wasn't really anything on me.

Crappy Flu

So I think I had either a Flu or food poisoning It didn't feel like the flu all that was wrong was I was throwing up like crazy and was dead tired since I had been up all night at work. about 1pm I finally stopped throwing up and was doing a bit better. thank goodness for Kaylie she got home from school at 2 since it was a short day and she watched all the kids so I could sleep and when Shan got home later I was feeling so much better from getting sleep.

I have to wonder if it was the flu since the next night Stockton woke me up coughing like crazy and then he threw up 2 times. then was done. was thinking his was just from coughing so much till tonight.

Kendra and Kalista both in separate rooms started throwing up just minutes apart. and they are still throwing up. hopefully it wont last long because I worked last night and only got about 4 hours of sleep today due to Dr appointments. and I am extremely tired and grouchy.

I'm sure none of you care to read about my throw up stories but oh well enjoy. I have to tell someone and you choose to read my blog so you choose to read about it. :)

Halloween Picture

 
Posted by Picasa

So Shan took the kids trick or treating and I stayed home to give out the candy. Hardly anybody came I'd say maybe 20 kids total if that so I was giving out 2 candies to each kid. Turns out that's what everyone was doing and since there was no trunk or treating this year more people were home giving out candy. My kids came home with there buckets completely full and they were gone maybe an hour and didn't leave the cul-de-sac, which normally we have to leave to get more candy and they still only fill there buckets half way.
so I'd say they made out pretty well this year.
