Dirty Day

Back to Millie feeding herself, she needs to take a bath about every hour. Do you see how I feel every time she eats. I need a washing room in my kitchen, or a bigger sink. 

Chili for lunch

M & M's after Trick or Treating

Halloween

This Halloween was not awesome. James started getting a fever right before, therefore he cried as he got his costume on, and as he walked out the door crying and cried all the way until he got candy. Millie on the other hand couldn't wait to go and loved getting candy, and did not want to share. We did not make it very far. The pictures are not great but I needed to document this night. Luckily we got some good ones from the trunk or trick

Wind Storm

We had a crazy windstorm! It pulled out a tree in the neighbors yard. Down the street they are building a new school, we drove by to see the damage. I would hate to be in their shoes. 


Carving Pumpkins

Family carving pumpkin carving, means that Dad gets to carve everyone's pumpkin while everyone else ran around. But they loved it! The kids really loved seeing the candles in the pumpkins.




The only time we could get him to stick his hand in the pumpkin

Then he wanted to look in to see the "yucky" stuff

The best family picture

James was so happy



Millie only wanted to sit on them

Dinosaurs... ROAR

Jon had been hunting all week, and came home late Friday night. My dad had a meeting here in the Tri-Cities, which meant my mom was able to come up. At the Trac (a local arena down the street) they had a Dinosaur Expo. I was glad that we were all able to got together. They all had a blast! James was scared of the dinos, but loved all the activities. Millie loved ALL the dinos, and just wanted to walk around and see them.

She just wanted down to run aroun


They got to ride Dinosaurs


Digging for bones



James loved the bouncy house/slide


And then the highlight was that Jon waited in line for 1 hour, for James to ride a dinosaur for 1 minute. It was worth it

Playing Nicely

I am not sure what brought this on. Or how he thought of it, but they had so much fun playing. As long as no one got hurt, I enjoyed watching! 




Trunk or Trick

Our church did a Halloween party Friday night. It was a pizza party and then a trunk or trick. The kids loved it!! James picked out his own costume as a T-Rex. Millie could not have cared what she was, but she loves hats! So she had no problem being a witch.

Elk Hunt

Jon did it, he got another bull elk this year. It was during a 5 day hunt. He is proud of it, and we are proud of him. It is bigger then the one he got a few years ago. We are having it mounted as a shoulder mount. 



Play Gym

We have a gymnastics gym in tow, on Wednesday they do open gym. We occasionally go, the kids love it. We brought Maely along and the kids were so happy. Millie loves to find the car and just sit in it, and laughs. I love it!

Pumpkin Patch

We were invited with friends to go to a pumpkin patch. It was awesome and the kids had fun. They did hay rides, little train rides for kids, straw maze, and of course picking out pumpkins! I forgot my camera, thankfully Jessica brought hers and took some pictures for me.
