Birthday fun!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DASH!! What a stud - muffin! Alec is so excited for his birthday, but he tells us that he's mostly excited for his baptism! So here is one of his baptism pics that's he's mighty proud of. He did have a fun birthday with balloon pancakes and cinnamon rolls (thanks to Kristy). A cool skateboard - a fun game called Super Dash - cool binoculars (G & G Shewell)- and $ (who doesn't like money!) He's having a late night birthday party at home tomorrow night so don't come by our house - either the kids will be yelling or I will be. :)
Happy Birthday, Son!

It's always messy!

We had a funny experience two days ago. One of the kids' fun friends was over playing. They were mostly playing downstairs with the dress-up and after a while her dad came to get her. He asked if she needed to pick anything up. She responded "No, they always keep it messy down there!" The poor dad just looked at me and we both laughed. Out of the mouths of babes!

Eric turned 3!

Eric turned a TERRIFIC 3 year old on Nov. 14! Now that we've written it, it has to be true!
He is pretty proud of his light saber. Poor kid - it already broke. We kept telling him to be careful with it, but he couldn't resist "killing" with it. Look what Star Wars has turned him into. He also got a Mr. Potato Head, Carrot Head, and Corn Head. He thought those were pretty funny.

His favorite is the cool shaving kit - so he could shave in the bathtub! Isn't that such a cute picture! He had such a fun birthday - he loved helping make his cake because he knew it was for his birthday. Brian was getting a box of clothes out of the Expedition that my sister had sent up and right away Eric asked "Is that for my birthday!" Everything we did, he just knew it was for his birthday! What a cutie!

It's beginning to look and feel a lot like CHRISTMAS!

It's SNOWING! and not just a little bit of snow - it's coming down like crazy!
Kortney is loving it - it took us forever to get her back inside the house. Her hands were freezing and her pants all wet, but she loved it!

Eric's first words when he saw the snow was "Can I go out in it, Mom?" These kids are definitely winter kids! Their mom - not so much(BRRR). They must take after their dad.

Halloween

We had so much fun for Halloween! The weather was wonderful and there was so much candy that Eric kept jumping and running to each house to get more! By the end of the night he was most definitely exhausted!
Here's my hunk of a chunk Brian - he had an awesome mullet - I was a washed out blonde - Kortney was a cute little fairy!


The kids looked awesome. Korrynn was a fairy - Alec was a skeleton - Spencer was a vampire - Kayley was a secret agent. Eric was a lion (he loved roaring at people when they gave him his candy) The kids had a blast!
