Trick or Treat Ready!

Fall Weather

I took this picture out my back window, love this kind of weather!

Let the sewing frenzy begin!!

halloween sewing has comenced. Actually, at this time of posting, I have just finished all three of my kids costumes! I know, I'm amazing. But, I don't have pictures yet, just my starting pictures. This years challenge came in the form of Aerica drawing her own design. She wants to be a devil, a cute sassy devil. So, with no pattern I had to dig deep. It turned out great, Aerica deserves some design credit too. I also did Cy's without a pattern. I don't know what I was thinking, but I think it turned out ok, I will post pictures soon!

Thanksgiving Point

For fall break we took the kids to Thanksgiving point. We saw the 3D movie about bugs, perfect for my kids. If you know my kids very well, you know they are all crazy about any kind of bugs, but especially preying mantis. Jessie collects the cocoons and keeps them so they will hatch. Don't tell, but I try to find them all and throw them away. So far no hatching babies in the house! Well, the bug movie has a story about a preying mantis, it shows it hatch and all the thousands of other babies hatch out of the cocoon too. In the quiet theater, my mesmerized 6 year old, with her giant 3D glasses on, whispers to herself "my dream come true". Chad and I just looked at each other, choking back our laughter. My kids loved it, we had a good day.

Pine Wood Derby

So, Cy had his first Pine Wood Derby. He had tons of fun. He and Chad worked of his car together, Cy designed and did most the work himself. Chad helped when he was needed. Cy took the pictures himself, so, these are what he thought was improtant. Good Job Cy!

Hospital Blues

Jessie ended up in the hospital over the weekend for 2 nights due to her asthma. She just couldn't breathe. She had some visitors who brought her some good treats and my little ponies (her favorite, thanks Kiz and Baker!) And she loved playing old maid with grandma nanny (my mom). They helpled make it better for her, thanks guys. She is home now, and we are doing her breathing treatments here. She is much better and ready to go back to school. I definately like working at the hospital better than being a customer! At least Aerica liked the wheelchair.
