I spent 3 hours at the elementary school yesterday helping out with Halloween parties and the Big Parade. AJ decided to be a giraffe for the school festivities and Reese changed back into the witch. AJ the Giraffe was popular with the elementary school kids. He LOVED being able to eat the best snacks from…

Recently heard in my living room:
The scene: Taco is holding a rifle. Reese is dressed up in a fancy pink bridesmaid dress, holding a baby in her arms. Apple, distraught, is walking down the stairs, swinging a stick. Apple: “I’m a nice old lady! I’m a nice old lady!” Reese: “She tried to kill my baby!” Taco: “Why do you…
AJ’s Weight and the Halloween Candy
What do AJ and our Halloween candy have in common? Are they both sweet? Hmm…sometimes. Sickeningly sweet? Chewy and sticky? Lots of colors? Nope–both AJ and our Halloween candy weigh 32 pounds. I’ve never had so much candy! Help! I was able to put aside a huge bag of Snickers and Milky Way to use…
Trunk or Treat….let the candy eating begin!
With everyone on antibiotics, we were ready for trunk or treating! I’ve never seen the kids so willing to pose for their Halloween pictures (so I took advantage!). As soon as AJ saw Twizzler’s “Black” Batman, he wanted to put on a Batman costume, too. I told the boys to show their muscles, and AJ…
4 days, 3 trips to the doctor, 6 Rx’s (so far!)
Did I say something yesterday about looking forward to a day of rest today? Hmm…think again! Reese went to bed last night complaining of a sore throat and pain in her ear, so guess where we headed this morning? Back to the doctor for the 3rd time in 4 days! Did I even mention that…
The annual Pumpkin Patch field trip!
Today was the kindergarten’s annual field trip to the Pumpkin Patch! I was looking forward to going with Reese, and Reese…..well, she was just giddy with excitement. No day at our house would be complete without a little bit of excitement….so of course, someone HAD to get sick. On Tuesday night at 8:00, all of…
Christmas pageants, anyone??
I just found out tonight that I am in charge of putting together a relatively small/basic children’s Nativity for our Church Christmas dinner/party. So I thought I’d turn to my great blog readers (especially those of you who never comment!) and ask for help. Have you done or seen something in the past that worked…
My sister’s family pictures
I teased you with a preview of their sunrise silouette…and now I just finished editing and uploading a select few of my favorite shots from my sister’s family pictures (remember–I took hers and she took mine). The rest of the pictures can be found here on my photo blog (please visit!). I love my sister!…
Done
That’s what’s going through my head tonight. I’m done. I’m done with the Primary Sacrament Meeting presentation (the kids did an AMAZING job–everything was perfect!–we even ended on time!). I’m done with today’s Sharing Time….which is my last for a while. For those of you who haven’t heard, I was released as the Primary President….
Today’s my lucky day
Remember my car trouble yesterday? Well, I prayed and prayed that it would be an easy resolution (or that it would just go away!) and guess what? The car was running completely smooth and trouble free today. I don’t know what happened yesterday (it seemed to not be engaging in first gear) but apparently the…
