Don't we all just love halloween!? Getting them ready, all the paint and hairspray and work, and for an hour of trick or treating...ugh!! Actually I love halloween but by the time it's over I'm usually sick of it. This year Kel was the grim reaper, Sydnie was Spiderella, Kian was the Gatekeeper and Taya was a pirate.
Even Celi came out and dressed up with Taya.
Shane's kids came out to trick or treat with us too. All in all
You would think that moving into a new neighborhood the kids would make new friends, not enemies. Not really, Kian was actually playing with the new neighbor and he was swinging and iron rod trying to swat moths. Kian's face just got in the way. It didn't look bad when it first happened, but when he woke up in the morning it was nice and black. He's pretty proud of his first black eye.
Every year it has of course become tradition to carve pumpkins for halloween. The best part is the older they get the more independent they are. Even Taya did alot of her carving alone. You gotta love the mess it makes too... we need to switch to painting them!
We were at Chucky Cheese for Ashen's birthday and they have that quick pic thing. Anyway, Shane and I decided to take a picture. We were trying to hide our double chins and not move and wait cuz it takes forever. Needless to say, we were laughing so hard that I couldn't hold still and if you look, oh there it is, my double chin. Whatever, ok so what?! Anyway, I decided to add the other two pictures because since he's single and my husband is always gone, we're together alot.
Hey, just a little about my cute family. I've been married to Danny for almost 12 years and we just added the last addition to our family. Danny works in Colorado as a Safety Man, so he is gone a few weeks out of the month. It's hard to have him gone so much but he has a really good job. Kel is 9 and has a happy outgoing personality. He loves to play video games and hang out with his dad. Sydnie is 7 and is very sweet and lovable. She loves to dance and play soccer and be with any friend she can find. Kian is 6 and he would be described as a teaser or goof ball. He's very boyish and loves to show off on his bike and shoot guns with his dad. Taya is our baby girl. She is 4 and she loves babies, make-up and anything girlie. Kylen is our newest addition. He is 3 months old and so far has everyone wrapped around his tiny little finger. As for me, I'm the mom, the housekeeper, the cook, and one everyone runs to when they need a hug. I love my family and I love being a mommy.
