Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving with my family this year. It was such a beautiful day the kids played on the play ground and we even ate outside. I thank Heavenly Father ever day for the life I have. I am so blessed to be able to stay home with my kids. I may complain at times about my three girls, but I would be nothing without them and they really are great. I hope to find joy in them and my life everyday, have a more positive attitude, and have a thankful heart because I really am blessed.

Katelyn is 6!

We had a great day with Katelyn on her birthday. She started the day off with Chocolate chip banana pancakes. She was excited that she got to go to school on her birthday.

We made some Hello Kitty cookies for her class. I think they turned out super cute. Katelyn was so fun to watch at school handing them out to all her friends.

After school she had two of her friends come play. That evening we had a family party. Grandma P, Grandma and Grandpa Thompson, and Sarah's family came.

Katelyn loved all of her gifts. Sadie asked where hers were.

The Hello Kitty cake and cupcakes turned out really nice.

We finished the night by playing some Just Dance.

When I was one, I had just begun.

When I was two, I was nearly new.

When I was three, I was hardly me.

When I was four, I was not much more.

When I was five, I was just a live.

But now I am six, I'm as clever as clever,

I think I'll stay six

Forever and ever.

Please do Katelyn!!! I am enjoying her more every day. She is sensitive, caring, and thoughtful. She is so smart and is reading extremely well. She is so creative and is always playing make believe. She is super silly and playful. I would no longer call her shy. She is a people pleaser and is really responsible. We love her so so so much. My life would not be the same without her.

Happy 6th Birthday Katelyn!

Trick or Treat

We had an awesome Halloween this year. The girls decorated two of our pumpkins that we grew in our garden. There was parades, parties, trunk or treating, food, dentist appointments, real trick or treating, costumes, a surprise wedding, and candy candy candy.

Our Witch

Katelyn was so excited to go back to school after being out for a week for fall break. They had a school wide parade and a class party.
We had ourselves some Mummy dogs for dinner.
She was all ready to go trick or treating with Dad.

Our Rapunzel

Sadie had long golden locks for her costume. We braided it so it would be a bit more manageable.
She got good at using her frying pan as a weapon. Good thing she didn't have it with her at the dentist. Instead she screamed her head off and kicked her feet and didn't let anyone come near her. It made a mother very proud :( She is sure a feisty girl.

Our Pumpkin

Hanging out with Katelyn
Juliette is getting to be such a big girl. She is now 5 months old and is sitting up all by herself. She is definitely drooly and we are awaiting a tooth. She is unbelievably lovable.

Our Jolly Green Giant and Candy Corn

Nate handed out treats at the trunk or treat and I had to bribe kids just to take a picture with me.
After a long night, the best part is sorting to see what everyone got.
We really did have a great Halloween. It is so fun to see the kids get so excited. We were so excited to hear that my brother and long time girlfriend surprised everyone and got married all dressed up as Gnomeo and Juliet. I love you Travis and am so glad that you and Tara did it the way you wanted. Happy Halloween!!!
