{Trunk-or-Treat}

We went to our Churches annual Trunk-or-Treat.  They had a chili cook-off, face painting, carnival games, and trick or treating.

{Halloween Carnival}

Before Halloween a local grocery store had a carnival.  The kids dressed up and had lots of fun!

 [they had blow up bouncers and slides!]

 [They had a train ride.  The kids loooved this]

 [The kids got to climb into and look around the inside of a firetruck]

 [Baby blue eyes smiled at everyone!  Always such a sweet girl]

{50's Day}

The kids dressed up for 50th day of school.  Jaedyn borrowed a poodle skirt from Dance & she looked darn cute!!

{Playing catch-up}

Life has been busy.  Blogging and taking pictures is still important to me.  I am going to try and get caught up.  Hopefully that means scheduling a bunch of posts today....   Stay tuned and see if I accomplished it (with only a left hand)

Also, say a little prayer for me, I go for wrist surgery tomorrow morning to fix my wrist that I broke almost 2 weeks ago.  It has been an interesting trying to do things one-handed these past two weeks.

{Cute Kids}

Almost every morning after the big kids have gone off to school, Tanner spends some quality time with Bryn.  He always asks me to take a picture with her.  I think it is so cute how much he loves his little sister!

{Jaedyn Lately}

I was taking pictures of Bryn the other day, and decided to snap a few of my growing beauty!  She is blossoming before my eyes.  She is the sweetest daughter, the best helper ever!  She makes my job as a mom much easier!

{3 Months Old}

Our sweet Brynlee Cait is 3 months old!  She is cuter than cute!  She is smiling, cooing, and just generally being cute!  Here are the latest pics of our beauty.

{A final swim at the Lake}

The lake house is under contract and we are closing on it soon.  We went up before it got too cold to swim.  It was Bryn's first time in the water.  She was a champ.  Everyone had fun!!

{Long overdue}

It has been a long time since I've blogged.  I have plenty to blog about, but have been occupied with other things.  Like - selling the Lake House, playing with my kids, selling stuff at the garage sale, buying new furniture for my house, playing Scramble on my phone, going to the gym... the list is endless..   However, my cousin posted a few pictures on Facebook today and I wanted to make sure I saved them.  I don't have a lot of pictures of my mom or of me as a kid, so I love it when he does this!

[This is me and my Uncle Jeff - I am probably about 9 or 10 years old here]

[I love this picture because it has my Mom (top right) and my Grandma - Baha.   My Mom is about 14 or 15 in this picture]

[This picture is an oldie too - my mom is holding the cat.  My guess is she is about 10 in this picture]

I will get back to blogging.  I have a beautiful baby that is growing up so fast and other kids that won't stop either!  I need to document these times so I can look back when I am old and gray!

{Fun Run}

The kids had a PTA fundraiser at school where they tried to raise money and ran laps.  I decided to not ask for any money and gave the teachers gift cards instead.  My gripe with the Fun Run was the school only got 1/2 of what we raised.  The 1/2 went to PTA - I think PTA is great in all, but I really want "my" teacher to have what she needs for "my" kid.  So I opted to just give my teachers gift cards.  The kids still got to participate in the Fun Run, and had a blast.

[the kids were so excited to see Dad!  Poor guy always has to work, but was finally able to come to an event!]

[Bryn hung out and watched the kids run - and napped]
