trick or treat

it was a cold and rainy trick or treat last night 
the girls didn't last longer then 40mins. 
the older boys lasted an hour and a half.









Van is the grim reaper, Petey the lizard from Spiderman, Tatum is Cherry Jams ( from strawberry shortcake), and Ollie didn't want to dress up.

Pumpkins

Hope everyone had a happy Halloween! Here are the kids jack o' lanterns.

The fourth.

Well, we watched the fireworks last night, all except Ollie and Daddy. ( Ollie doesn't like loud noises so he really doesn't like the fire works.)

Easter weekend updates

A few quick updates for Easter weekend.
Tatum and I made Pioneer Woman's Knock You Naked Brownies.
they were yummy!!!!!!!
Tatum licked the bowl and got some on her nose.
my little helper

Then we colored eggs.
Here is all of our pretty colors
and our colored eggs
I took lots of pictures of the kids coloring eggs and of their baskets, 
but I haven't downloaded them yet.( sorry)
My mom and step dad came down on Easter. We had ham and cheesy potatoes, which was yummy and filling. The kids had fun and played outside. Tatum and Ollie played with their sidewalk chalk and Tatum had my mom doing the hop scotch. 
It was a really nice weekend even though I had to go to class on Saturday.

 Josh is on Spring Break this week and we have been doing lots of things around the house. Today we spent most of the day outside in the yard. We tore out one flower bed and planted flowers in another. Tomorrow we are going to mulch. I love to do work outside. However today it was cold and I think my face got a little wind burnt. I will update and show you some pictures of our flowers and plants when we are done, we might even get some painting in too. If I get the Easter pictures downloaded, I'll share them as well. I have not had a chance to be on the computer much this weekend and my laptop is broke. I won't have her back till next week, so I may not be on her much .Plus I have lots of reading for class. Petey starts flag football this week. This is a busy busy week. I'll try to get a What I Wore post on here tomorrow. I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend.

Top of the Morning to ya

do you remember when I said that I was going to make these Lucky Pancakes here?
Well, I made them this morning for breakfast.

they were yummy!
Petey also had the idea of making green scrambled eggs, so that's what we did.

It was a very St. Patrick's Day breakfast!

February is here.

February is such a cute little month.
Its full of hearts and Love.
Its never been my favorite month, but I always liked decorating my box for valentines and of course making valentines for all my classmates.
as an adult, I have not really paid that much attention to valentines day.
no special dinners or anything
However, Valentines Day is Tatum's favorite holiday, it might have something to do with the fact that pink is her favorite color and she loves hearts and crafts, ect.
but maybe we do need a little extra love in this winter time.....
because after all you need is love.

NYE '11

We enjoying spending New Years Eve at home with our family and this year was no different.
We ate pork and sauerkraut at midnight.
Tatum and I picked out some cute party hats and we watched Coldplay live on Austin City Limits.
Here are a few pictures I snapped of the kids that night:
Hope everyone had a happy and safe New Year.

Christmas morning

well, the kids had us up at 7:30 on Christmas morning.
Van set up his video camera to catch Santa, however when he woke up in the morning his camera was off and he found this letter:
I am just going to post some pictures from the morning ...

Tatum got Josh a Steelers football, he likes the Browns ... their rival!
Van reading his letter from Santa.
