Thanksgiving

We had a fun Thanksgiving. On Thursday my parents and Hubbys parents came to our house to have the turkey and such. It was nice and small with lots of leftovers. I have to say that the turkey actually turned out. Although it did take an hour longer than I thought it would. On Saturday we went to Hubbys' sisters house. It was so nice to see all of his brothers and sisters. The kids like always had a lot of fun even though they are still trying to remeber everybodies names. There was so much good food. I think we all a little to much. Sunday afternoon we had a small get together blessed Little bro. It was so nice to have those that were able to make it come for the blessing.

Twilight

It's been awhile but I was able to go and watch Twilight. WOW what a good movie. I loved it. I can't wait until the next one comes out. Jacob Black was great ( I know he didn't talk much) and in the next one it will have more of him. All of the cast was great though. I can't wait to see it again.

Sissy Turns 6 !!!

Sissy's birthday was last Friday she turned 6. Instead of having a birthday party I was able to talk her into going to Build a Bear. So on Saturday my mom, my sister-n-law, and I took her. She really wanted a horse but they didn't have any. She picked out this puppy instead. It is definitely an experience to go to a Build a Bear Workshop. They have so many options for clothing. And that is where they get you. I didn't think it would cost that much. But I didn't add any of their little extras. And the people that work there are very sneaky. See they don't talk to the parents they ask the children what they want. Because of this Sissy's dog almost got a pair of panties. Even though I'm complaining about the price and happy workers it was worth it. Sissy loves her dog Sally and loves to get her dressed. She has two outfits one from Hubby and I and a church outfit from my parents. She says that it was the best birthday ever. And that's what makes me happy.

Big Brother

One night I was trying to get the kids to bed and Little bro. started to cry. Actually that happens just about every night. (He still isn't on the perfect schedule.) But on this night I went into the bedroom to get Little bro.and Bubba had already taken care of it for me. Bubba had turned on the music and was holding Little bro's pacifier for him. Sometimes Bubba can be such a sweet big brother.

A bunch of star wars geeks

For Halloween we dressed up as Star Wars charcters. Yes the boys had a lot of say on what the family was going to be this year. It was great though and nice to do something as a family. The kids and Hubby went to a carnival at Sissy's school on Thursday night. They had a lot of fun. The highlight of the night was when they had a lightsaber fight with Darth Vader. On Friday we went trick-or-treating around my parents neighborhood while my parents watched Little bro. My brother dressed up as Frankenstein which at first scared Bubba but after that first scare nothing we saw that night scared him. At one point he walked by a guy dressed up as a monster and all Bubba said was "hi monster". It was so funny. The kids had a lot of fun and got compliments on thier costumes. After trick-or-treating we hung out at my parents house. The kids stood at the door and handed out the candy to all the kids trick-or-treaters. The funniest part was when Big bro. and Sissy went to do something else and left Cousin(my 2 year old niece) and Bubba incharge of handing out the candy. They did a really good job but it had a lot of people confused. It was a really fun Halloween. Luckly I have Big bro. and Bubbawho have already started to talk about what we will be next year so I don't have to wait to think about Halloween.

So excited

A couple of nights ago I was watching t.v. and the best preview for a movie came on. Thats right the preview for Twilight. I am so excited to go and watch it. Those who are reading this probably figure that I'm just another married woman who is in love with a vampire. But thats not true at all. Edward is ok and all but you see I'm on team Jacob. Thats right I'm in love with the other one. Don't get me wrong Edward is a great guy. It's just that he is a little to perfect for me. And is way to mature. Jacob to me is perfect. He is the fun loving guy with just the right amount of immaturity(if there is such a thing). So while most will go to the movie to see Edward I will be there to see Jacob. ( okay and maybe a little bit of Edward too.)

Pumpkin carving contest

Saturday was our wards Chili Cook Off. They also had a pumpkin carving contest. Hubby and the kids carved a pumpkin to take with them. ( I stayed home with Little bro.) Hubby did a great job making the face of the pumpkin. Like every year he cut the pumpkin and then it was time for me to help. I am the only one who will take the seeds out. Hubby thinks that it is gross because it is slimy. Slowly the kids are coming along to my side. Sissy actually took some of the seeds out. Big bro. put his hand in(although he didn't touch anything). Bubba got on a chair up next to the pumpkin before he started to freak out. Anyways with the awesome design and the clean out ablities our pumpkin won 2nd place.

6 Quirks

Okay so here is the tag from Tawna. It took me forever to figure out my quirks mostly because I know I'm perfect :) So I had to ask Hubby what they were and he came up with some pretty fast.

1.) I am not a morning person but I'm not really a night person either. I love to go to bed early and hate the fact that I have to wake up to take Sissy to school.
2.) If I don't finish a book within 3 days it's not worth reading. I love to read but I just hate waiting to see what the ending is.
3.) I have to have a nap everyday. I tell people that the kids need a nap but it's actually me that needs the nap.
4.) The dishwasher has to be loaded a certain way. I know I'm lucky to have a dishwasher or even someone help me but for some reason the dishes have to be in there a certain way. If they are not I usually will go back and fix it myself.
5.) I make a list for everything that I do. Even if I do the same thing everyday I have to have a list or else I wont do anything. If I need to make a phone call to the Doctors or whoever it wont get done until I put it on my list. And I just love the feeling of being able to cross things out when they are done.
6.) I hate walking around barefeet. I don't know what it is but I have to have socks on all the time when I am home. I love flip-flops but when I take them off I automatically put on my socks.

Okay so there are the 6 I'll tag Destiny because she is all I know.

And Drake makes 4

The kids seeing Little bro. for the first time. Little bro. a couple days after being home.

October 13th we finally had baby #4. Little bro. was born 6 days before his due date but that was ok with us. He weighs 7 lbs. 9 oz and is 19 inches long. The kids are so excited to have him around they are constantly trying to play with him, talk to him, or hold him. He doesn't seem to mind too much but then again I don't think he realizes what is going on.

Hand-me-downs

One of Bubbas favorite days is the day we get the hand me downs from his cousin. All of his cousins clothes are the best according to Bubba and Big Bro. Bubba really loves the hats. As soon as he sees the hats he knows that the stuff is from his cousin.

Daddy/Daughter campout

This last weekend was the daddy/daughter campout for our ward. Sissy was so excited to go. They got to sleep outside in a tent and hang out together. I don't get a whole lot of information on what they do because they are so wiped out. All I know is that Sissy looks forward to it every year. Because Sissy went camping the boys wanted to do something fun also. So we went and had a sleepover at my parents house. The boys loved it.
This week has been busy with Sissy at school and I had a Dr. appointment. I am now in the 37th week. The dr. said she gives me a 50% chance of having the baby this week. I just laughed and said that none of my kids have come on their own and I don't think this one will either.

Yard Sale!!!

Today the boys decided to pretend that they had a yard sale. Big Bro. and Bubba both went into the playroom and pulled out some toys and put them on a blanket. Big Bro. was the guy selling the stuff and Bubba was buying the toys. They had alot of fun buying and selling. Although it's hard to make money when you are using the same penny over and over. Either we have taken them to too many yard sales or they are true Borings and it runs in them.

Peach Picking

Bubba ate more than was put in the Bucket.

He calls them Peachys.

Big Bro. and Cousin are being Monsters.Sissy is just not interested.

We went peach picking with my parents and my brothers' family. The kids love going and looking for peaches on the trees. Sissy wasn't into it this year because the week before she fell off of the 4 wheeler and got a small break in her arm. She was in a little bit of pain. The Boys and thier cousin however loved picking and eating.

Sissys' first day of school

Sissy was so excited to start school this year. This year she gets to ride the bus and has the option of buying lunch. I didn't even cry when dropping her off on her first day of school.
