Happy Birthday to Dave!




My wonderful husband also had a birthday - Happy Birthday Babe! He got a sweet treat and a sweet gift from his bro's family. All in all we've had a great few weeks besides the constant coughs, sneezes, and runny noses.

Glasses


Dekan also had to get glasses. We found out he is severely far-sighted in one eye, and has to wear glasses all the time to try and correct it. He sure is cute. You can see the red room we painted behind him while Dave's mom was here. I went on a scrapbook retreat and Dave got to go to Dekan's class Thanksgiving feast to take pictures. He wasn't interested in trying any of the food there, bummer.

ICE!











Dave's mom also came for a visit, and among other things we went to see the ICE! exhibit at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine. It was very cool, and and very cold - 9 Degrees! Absolutely everything was made out of ice.

Happy Birthday to Me.


I know it's been a while for me to post, but we've been busy. I turned 30 earlier this month, and my husband was the greatest (he's had a few years to practice). He made sure I was sung to and everything (something that normally doesn't happen on my birthday for some reason). He also got me a cell phone which apparently I was only one of 5 adults in America who didn't own one. It's good to now be one of the masses. Pumpkin pie is my dessert of choice, no corn for me thanks.

P.S. These pumpkins win


A neighbor had these pumpkins - my personal favorites this year. No idea what the third one is but I loved the throwing up pumpkins.

Happy Halloween!







I forgot to get Dekan and Chandler in the act of trick or treating even though we went out 3 different times (yeah, that's right). We started with the outlet mall from 4:15 to 5:30. We came home to have our Jack-o-lantern pizza and pick up Dave, then went around the neighborhood until 8:00. From there, we went to visit Dave's brother's fam who handed us bags of candy - crazy! The next night we went to our ward's trunk or treat. So, after way too much trick or treating, we have 2 grocery sacks filled to the top with candy - RIDICULOUS!! But, the boys had fun. If you can't tell, I have a bun in the oven - that's my costume. I actually went around the outlet mall with it on despite the weird looks from people who had no idea what I was. Happy Halloween!
