The Kid’s all Together

Jay's 8th BDay 308 Kennedy (7), Karli (almost 6), Lydia (6 1/2),

Jack (4 1/2), Jay (8), Joshua (2)

This was by far the absolute easiest picture I have ever taken of six children together.  I stood them in line, told them to smile and we were done.  Too easy – there has to be a catch.  Probably next time that I want their picture together they will ignore me!

Halloween Preparations and Trick-or-Treating

The kids enjoyed cleaning and carving pumpkins again this year.  Josh wasn’t too sure of the gooey stuff that was inside the pumpkin (also known as the “guts”).  They had fun making a mess and deciding what face they would put on their creatures.Jay's 8th BDay 276 Jay's 8th BDay 269 Jay's 8th BDay 272 Jay's 8th BDay 275

 

They trick-or-treated happily until they got tired – then Jack said that he would just wait in the car- all in all we did about 12 houses and came home with enough sugar to last for a very long time – so much that they have not even touched the bucket of candy in days – can you believe a child can get too much candy?

Jay’s 8th Birthday

I can not believe that my Baby Jay is eight years old!  He had a very nice birthday party and enjoyed all of his gifts (although he did not receive the gift he really wanted – a dirt bike).    Jay's 8th BDay 315 Jay's 8th BDay 326Jay's 8th BDay 336

Joshua’s Two!

Joshua had his second birthday.  He was very into it.  Loved the attention and all of the toys!  I made his Elmo cake – pretty proud of it, I thought it turned out well.  He even blew out all of his candles by himself!October 2009 008Joshua's 2nd BDay 037 Joshua's 2nd BDay 021

The mountain is beautiful.  I now fully understand the addiction that Miranda has!

Washington Trip 093And I can’t forget Sara at the fair.

Washington Trip 049I have never laughed so much for so long as I did in WA.  We had so many heart to hearts and even more hillarious conversations!  As we laughed about it we “worked on our six-packs”.  My stomache muscles and side muscles ached from laughter – it was Fantastic!  Thanks for the wonderful time everyone!

Jack’s First Day

085

Here is Jack on his first day of 4 Year Old Preschool.  He had a bit of a rocky start with leaving his mommy but he is doing wonderful now.  In fact today his teacher told me that he is adjusting really well – wouldn’t even know that he gives me a hassle about going to school…  I think that he just likes to work me over.

And then there is Joshua – he hated to have his picture taken until this day and then he thought that he should be in all the pictures saying “Cheeeese!”.
