Trick or Treat

Halloween is over! My little trick or treaters are tucked in their beds. We had a great time, we went church, they had tons of stuff for the kids to do. A bouncy castle, candy, clowns, scooter races but my kids were looking most forward to seeing ELMO!! Logan has been talking about it since Wednesday, I had my doubts, but he assured me he was going to have his pic made with him so we stood in the long long line and when it was my little Spidermans turn...he changed his mind!!!! =) An exact repeat of Santa last year LOL, he pleaded with ELMO to talk, ordering him almost, "Talk, Talk" I guess since the poor guy dressed as Elmo knew he couldnt duplicate the infamous Elmo voice, he opted not to talk, thus Logan didnt get any closer to him than 5 feet or so. Oh well, maybe next year!!! Kennedy didnt get a chance to say NO, Brian plopped her down in his lap and stepped away, she seemed a bit confused although, her new favorite word is Elmo, she carries him around the house, watches him on DVD so I am proud to say I got several great shots of her sitting on Elmos lap!! Thank goodness we didnt stand in the line for nothing
We left there and went to some friends house for a visit and we ended the night with a delightful dinner at the always delish O'Charleys!!
They enjoyed themselves so much, I hope you guys had a great time too I will post pics tomorrow!
----------------Happy Halloween------------

SO, I couldnt bring myself to commit to bangs BUT I did finally razor a few angled pieces so we can avoid her hair hanging in her eyes all the time! Pretty cute right?

"Babies Don't Keep"By Ruth Hulbert Hamilton

Mother, O Mother, come shake out your cloth. Empty the dustpan,
poison the moth.
Hang out the washing, make up the bed, Sew on a button and butter the bread.
Where is the mother whose house is so shocking?
She's up in the nursery, blissfully rocking.
Oh, I've grown as shiftless as Little Boy Blue,Lullabye, rockabye, lullabye loo. Dishes are waiting and bills are past dueLullabye, rockaby, lullabye loo.
The shopping's not done and there's nothing for stew.
And out in the yard there's a hullabaloo. But I'm playing Kanga and this is my Roo. Lullabye, rockaby lullabye loo.The cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrowBut children grow up as I've learned to my sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs; Dust go to sleep!
I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.

Scenes from Logans 4th Birthday Party!!!


Logan was pretty amazed with the slide going up! (So were we)














Logan... eat the cake, not Spiderman!













Kennedy sat in Krystals lap for an hour



So when the slide guys arrived they told us that they have never put a slide into a backyard before that they have only rented it to companies before. We were glad to be the first, it was such a huge hit with all the kids!!! I heard several kids protesting when Mom said it was time to go!!!













We had big kids, little kids, and babies a really great
turnout for Logans party!

Billie Jean, Kennedys teacher was awesome with
all the kids she was so much fun!
Matching dimples!!
The kids thought it was the coolest when there was
an adult on the slide...there were very few who wanted
to slide down so those of us who did took a barage of kids
down with us each time!!!


These are Logans Big Sisters (22) and (16) Proof that slides are fun for everyone!!!
