Halloween

He had a fun HaLloWeEn.

But I am so glad it is over.

The girls loved cleaning out the pumpkins with daddy.

 Grandma Adrienne had her annual Halloween Party

And once again everyone was really good with costumes.

Kate the tiger (not a cat)

Meg the bat

Hank the transformer

Ruby the witch

 Bring in the clowns....

 Andy and Jeni

and Family

 Patti and Steve's kids

 Jimmy and Linzi and kids

 Grandma Adrienne and Ruby

 I did Kate makeup six times over the past five days.

I think she looked great, but I am done I can put away the make-up.

 Meg

 Hanks first costume was a transformer and we went trick or treating to Gayle and Dales

and

Hank had an accident.

So now he is Superman.

 Glenda and the Bate

 Isn't she the sweetest little witch.

Rod's sister Denae through a great Halloween Party on Monday, but I didn't take my camera.

Lots of fun games and treats.

Thanks Denae for a great time.

Happy Birthday Denae.

Kate's baptism

I am so proud of Kate and her choice.

It was another wonderful day with family and friends.

Kate and Ruby

September 9th was a special day for our family.

Kate turned 8.

and

Ruby was blessed in our church.

It was so wonderful to be surrounded by all of our family.

I can't believe Kate is eight years old.

She is turning into a beautiful young girl.

She is a wonderful helper.

She is kind and wants to have lots of friends.

Her fashion sense is a little off sometimes.

And has become very picky about clothes.

Sometimes I want to scream but its not worth it.

She LOVES pickles.

I canned 80 quarts of pickles last summer and they lasted less then a year.

She loves to dance, play and school.

 I didn't get any good pictures of Ruby in her blessing dress.

I kept meaning to take more but now it is a little late.

She received a beautiful blessing from her dad.

In the blessing she was told "she would have a smile and a personality that will enhance others lifes"

I received a blessing years ago and was told I have "a smile and personality that touches each of us."

I thought that was pretty amazing to share those sweet words.

I love this little girl and wish she would stop growing.

She is such a peaceful baby and has a smile that lights up her whole body.

 Happy birthday Kate!

Cabin with Granna

We went up to the Cabin in August with Granna.

It was our only trip this summer and Ruby's first trip.

The water was so cold but the kids had so much fun playing in it.

The bath water shows how much fun the kids had today.

I love the cabin and {love} that my husband and children {love} it too.
