For Patrick

For the last 8 months or so, I have been horrible at sending Patrick any letters or packages. I know he has probably given up on me, but we still pray for him every night as a family and my kids still adore him. So this post is to show Patrick how much his little nephew looks up to him. Now if only Cory and I knew anything about wrestling!!!

Who taught me to put on make-up?

The last week or so, people have been looking very closely at my right eye. No... it is not a poor attempt at make-up. It is a black eye. Cory and I did not fight. I did not fall. My kids are fine. The end of a bungee(yes, the black hook part)hit the corner of my eye. It hurt pretty bad. These pictures were taken last week and it got worse. Now it is black and blue more towards the bottom and has that pretty yellow jaundice color around the edges. Sorry about the lack of make-up!!!













And on a happier note...look how cute my baby is. He is 7 months now and adorable. He still isn't sleeping through the night and now refuses a binky or a bottle. If anyone has any suggestions on how to wean him with as little fight as possible or how to get him to sleep through the night(or even 5 hours). I am up for suggestions!

Halloween & Grandma Holley's 90th Birthday

We had so much fun this year. After a lot of stress, Jaden decided to be an indian and luckily his dad's indian costume worked perfect. Grace of course wanted to be Cinderella and I stole my sister-in-law Crysti's idea and made Lane Gus, the mouse from Cinderella! The highlights were Jaden getting a huge bat full of bubble gum and Grace eating all her mosquitles(AKA skittles). Lane was a cute mouse with his fat little cheeks and Cory and I are still enjoying stealing the kids candy.

We got to celebrate Grandma Holley's 90th birthday on Sunday! It was fun to see everyone. Grandma is a sweet lady and we love her. My kids are super spoiled, they have 4 great grandparents(Jaden has known 6). 3 of the 4 had huge birthday celebrations this year-Grandma Floyd turned 80, Grandpa Gallier turned 80 and Grandma Holley turned 90!
