Halloween 2009

Each year gets more fun with the kids and holidays. I was kinda relieved this year when Luke told me he wanted to be spider man. I had wanted to make him a costume, but I'm really un-organized this year, so I was happy to buy him a suit. When I got done making Abby's costume, I told my Mom I was just going to buy Carly something because I didn't have time to do hers too. So my Mom took pity on me and made Carly's for me.

And thank you Mom, because I think Carly was the cutest witch!

Abby really likes to take care of everyone, she watches over Carly so well. She carried Carly's bucket to each door so that she got enough candy. G &G Dawson came trick or treating with us around the neighborhood, then after we went over to G&G Jenkins for dinner.

Of course the end of the night ends with Ab being partially naked. All the trick or treaters got an eye full.

the last couple of weeks

Well, here's our last day in our apartment... moving day. I tried to keep the kids entertained with cookies and a movie, but it only lasted as long as the cookies.

Ben and I celebrated our anniversary on the 17th. Ben had to work most of the day, but luckily we went to my Grandma's 75th birthday party, so we did go out and eat at least.

Also on the 17th, Abigail and Luke were both fighting their way out of the shower at the same time and Ab fell on the bottom where the door closes. We were at my Mom's so she watched Luke and Carly while I took her in to get stitched.

She asked if I had my camera in my bag... she wanted to send a picture to Uncle Blake. So here we are waiting in the Dr.'s office.

And finally my favorite part of my new house... outside! The kids play outside all day, Luke and Ab have bonded so much playing together, I love it.

While we were in the moving process, it made me realize what great family we have! We had such eager babysitters, movers, plumbers, & painters.

Once things get settled, I will get more pictures up of the house. I'm painting, and I've only got two bathrooms and two bedrooms left.
