November so far....



We have had to seperate our kids from David and Lissa's kids at night because the talking never ends. We started putting all three of my kids in our room. The first night Logan kept coming out saying that Rai was bugging him so he couldn't sleep. I told him to ignore her....you can see that this is exactly what he tried to do. I went in to check on them and he apparently had fallen asleep plugging his ears!

My musical girls...

so...Ever since Logan could talk he has been against me singing. I would sing at the piano or in the car and he would tell me to stop. I think he may have even plugged his ears a time or two. Maybe he just thinks I am terrible at the piano and at singing. *sigh* I tried to give him a piano lesson a few months ago, and he wasn't having any of that either. It really is too bad because he has a great voice! He makes up songs all the time, loves the radio, but he just isn't a music guy himself. But... It looks like I might have some hope with my girls! This is a duet waiting to happen!



Just look at those fingers...they are getting technical and everything!

I always have some random picture in my post that doesn't fit the "theme" so here it is... I looked up some hair- dos online and copied them so that I could actually make Rai's hair cute. Look how great it turned out!

Halloween!!!

ok...so this picture isn't a Halloween picture, but I had to post it! This is Rai's Christmas dress and I made it!!! I know! Isn't it cute??! I will say that the tulle was VERY hard to work with but the dress turned out so great it didn't even matter! I am working on Jocy's matching dress now, and Lissa is refusing to help me...so I have had to do and re-do almost everyhing I sew. I closed up the sleeve seam ( both of them) before I even put the sleeves on. That was a big pain to rip out! I guess that is one way to never make the same mistakes again!


This is Jocy's favorite cupboard in the whole house...Its where all the food is!












Happy Halloween!! We went trick or treating in Lissa and David's neighborhood this year for Halloween ( since.. you know... we live there and all!) It seems to me that Halloween is kind of going by the way side. We walked around the whole neighborhood, and there were only about 4-5 houses on each street that were handing out candy to the kids. Luckily we got a really good walk out of it and the kids still got a lot of candy. They had a lot of fun! Rai, Jocy and I dressed up like witches. I think this is the first year I have dressed up since I have been married! Zach went as a Paramedic ( original I know). We realized that Logans only dress costume that I left unpacked for him was WAY to small..so we had to improvise on his costume. David cut jagged sleeves on Logans pajama shirt and Jagged bottoms on his sweat pants to make a pirate costume. Lissa had a pirate hat that he used...which was good because I don't know that anyone would have known what he was with out it!! Logan LOVED his costume and that is all that matters!


The three witches!
