My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

Halloween Happenings



We made it through another Halloween. This year we threw together costumes at the last minute and I have to say that I am pretty proud of ourselves. Turner was a cowboy, Max a court jester, Me a bride and Josh my bridesmaid. The dresses were in the closet just begging to be worn :)
(I know I know your not suppose to cross-dress, good thing my mom doesn't read my blog.) Turner and Max were invited to Stacy's Scardy Tot party-it was so fun! We had a blast being immersed in toddler world. (thanks for the picture Stacy I stole it from your blog!) Friday night Turner and I carved his pumpkin that he got at the pumpkin patch with GG and Crapa. We threw homemade pizza in the oven (our typical Friday night dinner) and ran around until we were all ready. After the candy was gone I turned off the lights and headed out to join the kids. We ended up at the McKays where they have a fire pit and doughnuts. We didn't even need coats it was such a warm night.
This is Turner's face when we informed him that he couldn't eat his Halloween candy until the next day (we sure are mean!) Max had a blast trying on Josh's wig- so this is what a daughter with a lot of hair might look like- cute if you ask me! We had just a great holiday and look forward to celebrating for the next couple of months! Now to decide where we are going for Thanksgiving...

You rock--throwing together costumes like that. What was my deal--debating about it for weeks. BTW, Max looks like a porcelain doll with that wig--I seriously had to read the caption to see that it wasn't a doll you had photographed.

So cute! Thanks for coming to my party.

I love little kids in wigs...especially when they leave them on and don't cry about it. I try it every year as you will notice from my blog. Now Dax sadly is too cool for the wig game. Come on buddy...your only 2!!

So fun, I love halloween and seeing what everyone comes up with for costumes! Your boys sure are cute! I think you should come to Milwaukee for Thanksgiving! The picture of Max turned out cute even if he doesn't have a full fledged smile, can't wait to see the ones of my boys!

Oh my goodness. Josh is so funny in that wig. What a great sport. I love Halloween and was terribly sad that you weren't at the party. We missed you but sure enjoyed you while you were here. Your boys are cute. Max is a doll. Love it!!
