Damien. Halloween. Parties and Stuff.

  First..I am telling you all to go to http://windowslive.com/Desktop/Writer and download and use it. This entire post took less than 30 minutes and there are A LOT of pics on it. Do it. Try it. You’ll love it!!

So. Halloween. It is ridiculous the amounts of candy they get. Seriously. Miss Kenna was a hippie clown. Thanks to my friend Tina, we MADE her costume. Complete with funky bell bottoms. It turned out way cute and Kenna loved it, so that was good.

Marissa was a fairy and Brady was Snake Eyes from GI Joe.  It was a lot of fun.

For Halloween Classroom Parties, I was in charge of the “healthy” treat. It was rough. We did end up making little Ritz Crackers with Peanut Butter and Pretzels for legs to make little spiders. They turned out awesome, and I am told, yummy. I was trying not to puke with the PB. Even the smell grosses me out. Ew.

Bonus for Halloween. Marcus came home!!! He had been in Pennsylvania for 2 weeks. We didn't tell the kids he was coming and he showed up at Brady and Marissa’s school for their parties. They were so surprised. I was ecstatic.

 

While Marcus was gone, we had to carve pumpkins. I was dreading that. Especially doing it alone with three kids. Well….Jeff and Breezy were here and I roped them into helping the kiddos carve pumpkins. They totally loved it. They turned out awesome.

   

While Jed and Chelsea were here, we had dinner at mom and dads and had shrimp. Yum. I also took their family picture. So so cute. Damien is a doll face. I loved squeezing him. So sweet.

Brady…a mess from helping with the shrimp.

Damien. Looks like he is gonna hit Chelsea with a right hook.    

Jed. He is a dork. And I thought Kenna was bad when taking pictures…He is just as bad. They are such a cute little family. Damien looks so much like Jed it is insane!!! 

So there you have it. Doing good. Just starting to think of Christmas ideas. Crazy how fast it  sneaks up on you. Jed was deployed last week for Afghanistan. He’ll be home in the spring. Crazy.
