Happy Halloween!!!

I hope everyone had a great Halloween! I got to go to Shannon and Josh's and take Lydia trick-or-treating!! I got to leave work a little early so I got there just about the time that the kids started. We had some wonderful stew and biscuits (family tradition) and then took Lydia to a few houses. She really didn't need to go to many because this was all new to her. Plus, the candy was more for Josh and Shannon then for her (even though she did enjoy the fruit snacks).
Sorry some of them are smaller...I am still learning how to do this!
Getting read to go!
She looks so little up there by herself
I think this picture is so cute. She is so serious!
She did like the treats after!

We got to look at a toy catalog after and she was very interested it that!


She was being so silly...we were trying to take a picture of the both of us but she kept looking at me and laughing instead.

busy week (and weekend)!

Wow, I feel like each week goes faster and faster. We had our fall fest at work on Thurs. and I had so much fun! We all do different games in each wing and have the kids dress up and walk around with their parents. There was pumpkin decorating, tattoos, ghosts prints, candy tree and so much more. Then this weekend I went to Six Flags with a few friends and had a great time! I am not a big roller coaster person, but they got me on two of them. I still stood in line with them on the others and go to do a few other things. It was their Halloween fright fest so everything was decorated for that. It was alot of fun. I didn't get home until around 2am so I was exhausted and just wanted to go to bed but decided that I should take a shower since Six Flags is not the cleanest place. As I was shutting of the water the nozzle came loose and there was no way for me to turn off the water! I ended up calling my dad and he said that I had to call the landlord and let him know. At 3:30 in the morning!!!!! I did and he had me shut off the water heater and just leave the rest running and he would be here in the morning to fix it. I skipped church to wait for him and he still has not come! I just hate waiting around for someone when I have better things to do. Tonight I am going to a bonfire for my small group with will be alot of fun (but cold)! I will try to take a pictures there.

sleepover with Lydia!!

Shannon and Josh had a fall party to go to last night so Lydia came to stay the night with me! I think we both enjoyed it. We started out going to dinner with Grandma then came back to my apartment and played until bed time.


She loved playing with Bella and Jazz but I had to put Jazz in his room because it was getting to wild with the 3 of them. It was so much fun to have her and it will only get better as she gets older!

Bella and Jazz

Here ya go Mom...I am going to try to keep up on this as much as possible! I will start with some pictures I took tonight of Jazz (Shelley's new cat) and Bella. They did good tonight until Jazz got tired of Bella jumping around then his claws came out and he got me on the face and Bella on the nose!!! That was the end of play time. He is now safely back in Shelley's room (or should I say Bella and I are now safe from him) :) Here are the pics:
