A NEW friend!!!

After seeing the new "Twilight Saga: New Moon" on Friday night, my mom and her friend Sue stayed over. Zoiee made a fast friend. Sue brought gifts for the girls and read books in the morning. Zoiee got a wireless microphone that works through the tuner. She sang for us Saturday morning and hasn't stopped singing with it since.




Our little Gracyn finally says something....ah-oh!!!! My heart still yearns to hear Mama come out of her mouth but I will take this word. She was diagnosed with expressive language delay so she should start speech therapy soon. Hopefully this time next year she will be able to say mama. The picture above is how you will usually find her throughout the day but usually in regular clothes. She loves to wear others shoes, even my heels. Anyone who knows me know I don't like shoes in the house so Zoiee has learned real quick to wipe them off before her sister wears them. It's one of my crazy quirks but I am loved anyway!!!

Halloween Events!!!

The Weekend started out with a bang. My sister and her 2 kids came down for the weekend. I think this will be the tradition now because the weather is always nicer here. We went to our ward "Trunk or Treat" on friday night. Patrick dressed as a basketball player doning a rock star wig I won at Bunko last month, I dressed up as Coach Sue from Glee without the attitude. Saturday, Patrick and I were able to have a date. When we got home, he spent some time with the kids in the back yard building snowmen from our left over snow from this past week. It turned out to be quite warm that day.


Olivia & Seth digging in the snow.

Gracyn had to play too!!


Zoiee rolling the bottom ball for her snowman.


Seth, Olivia and Gracyn. Gracyn always likes to HELP!!!!
I was supposed to make cheerleader costumes for the girls. I even bought a simplicity pattern. But when I opened it, I realized "I HAVE no idea what I am doing!!!" So I am going to get sewing lessons for christmas and make the costumes. I will be ahead for next year though. So. that is a plus!!


Zoiee in her cat costume...Zoiee loved the make up Auntie put on her. The lipstick wouldn't come off so she has red lips for church the next day.


Gracyn as a very "cheap" cheerleader


Olivia as a princess. She loved the sparkly make up she got to wear.


He sure can ROCK that look!!!!

This is the only picture I could get of Seth as a ninja.


After church on Sunday I make candied apples. They were YUMMY!!!!
