Happy Halloween

...I mean isn't Halloween here yet?

The pumpkin patch




Spooky Faces



Princess in an over-sized stethoscope

Spidey - out to rid the neighborhood of their candy


And the just plain scary!


I'm putting this on my blog so no one else tries to blackmail me with it...

just so everyone doesn't ask, Storm from X-Men..

Love the pictures! My kids said that your DH was imitating Bro. Moala when he was a teenage surfer dude in Hawaii. Lol! I'll email you the picture I took at the TorT tomorrow; I'm having problems sending them via email. You did look like Storm, but my next guess would have been Trinity from Matrix, then I realized, nope she had short black hair...

Hey cool costumes. It looks like Afton's hair is starting to grow in nicely. She looks cute. - Chrissy

Hello! I tried sending the picture today, but it failed because your email is not good anymore. Email me again and see if I can send it then, ok?


Quick thoughts

So I'm finally up with the times and have my own blog. You'd think if someone was a "webmaster" that they might be current with a full family history...

Now I'm frantically searching my mind for all those clever things my kids did and all those life changing thoughts that would really help all who read my little blog. Nothing.

Just two quick stories about both kids. Maybe then I can feel at ease knowing that my children's lives are adequately documented.

Jake has always been interested in numbers. He loves to ask random people (fellow shoppers at Wal-Mart, those who happen to stop next to us at a red light, etc) what their address is. Finally Jake discovered his life calling when we went through the Wal-Greens drive thru to pick up a prescription. Jake decided he would like to be the teller asking people for their address to verify their getting the correct prescription. We are in the process of getting him a store job application right now.

Afton has profound moments when I realize just how fast she is growing up. This week she saw a little girl walking with just her mom. She pointed at the little girl and said "Ohhh, that little girl doesn't have a brother." Let's just hope she always appreciates that she has a big brother!
