Twilighters Unite

So yeah, I'm a little obsessed with this book, maybe you know it? Anyways, I went to see the movie (along with everyone else and their dog) and have to say I enjoyed it. Of course there were some parts I thought were cheesy but I couldn't help but smile like a giddy little school girl through the whole thing. I hear it's better the second time around, which is good because I've been itching to see it again! Oh yeah and I love the soundtrack!

One Down, One to Go!

This past week my honey was in Pittsburgh taking his comprehensive exam for mortuary college (He took classes through the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science for two years). The exam consisted of 15 sections and one embalming. He passed of course and we are all so proud of him! John is officially done with mortuary college Yippie! He still has to take a state board exam to become licensed in the state of Idaho, but no more classes. This week John is busy making up for the week he missed here at ISU (He is also attending Idaho State University, majoring in Economics). John and I will both be graduating from ISU around the same time and we are both anxiously awaiting that day! Congrats John, You truly have a special gift for helping those in their times of grief. Love You!

Dreams

This morning Ashlyn initiated a conversation with me that was to cute not to share..

Ashlyn: Mommy I had dreams last night
Me: Oh wow, who was in your dream?
Ashlyn: Daddy and he was singing songs to me and it made me happy.

Halloween Festivities

This past weekend some friends of ours put on a Halloween party specifically for all of our kids. It was so much fun to get together and watch our children have fun in their costumes. Thank you Mandy for initiating and pulling it all together. The girls had a blast.

What a cute little bumble bee!

These are some of Ashlyn and Adrianna's buddies here in Pokey.

The girls running around like wild monkey's, no wonder they were so tired!

Nanna conspiring a way to get more candy!

Minnie and Me!

Ashlyn needed a little pause from all the action

MMMM, doughnut eating contest!

Adrianna was to little to reach the string.

Ashlyn loves babies, she was intrigued by this little girl. She referred to her as mariposa baby for the rest of the evening.

Ariel and Minnie Mouse had tons of fun, they are still asking if they can go back to the Halloween party!

Little Miss Attitude

As I was looking through family photos the other day I found that oh so many of our Ashlyn pics look like these. Poor girls, she absolutely hate change and has a hard time adjusting. We have progressed from all out tantrums (kicking, screaming, and wiggling all around the floor) to a grumpy face and a " no, stop it, I don't want to, leave Ashlyn alone, I mean it." I can't help but chuckle a little when she pulls a grumpy face, it is just to dang cute!

What a bunch of sillies!

Adrianna: " Ashlyn I gonna bite you"

Adrianna: " Give me a smoochie"

Ashlyn: " Aww you so cute Nanna, say cheese."

Two minutes after taking this picture Adrianna stole the purple Barbie computer (as pictured in Ashlyn's hand) from Ashlyn and then proceeded to hit her big sissy in the head with it!

Witches Night Out

Thanks ladies for dressing up! I had so much fun, let's do it again next year!!!
