Happy Thanksgiving!

Our family would like to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!!

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Happy Halloween!

Here are some pictures from our Halloween week. I set up a 'photo area' in our office to take some pictures of the kids. Zack LOVED it!!! He kept getting up on the table begging me to take his picture. What a cutie!! We had fun going Trick-or-Treating in our neighborhood and the kids got a TON of candy. Awesome!!

I went as an old dirty prisoner.

Zack was Woody from the Toy Story movies.

McKayLeigh was a butterfly princess.

Ben was a 'Hockey Fan'.

Halloween Dinner

I tried my hand at making Halloween Mummy-Dogs. The kids were a little uneasy about eating them, although they thought they were cute. They were fun to make.

Happy Halloween!

Here are my two little ghost Trick-or-Treaters that I made for our yard for Halloween. The kids wouldn't let me draw scary faces on them, so they are Happy Ghosts. They love them, but KayLeigh keeps asking why they are outside and not inside. (They were waiting to go outside for so long, she just thought they were inside decorations.) I tried to get the kids to enjoy a 'family project' when we were doing the paper mache' heads, but they HATED it and hope we never EVER do that kind of project again.

Food Storage?

The other day McKayLeigh was supposed to be napping. She obviously wasn't. She decided to play with the bottles of juice we have in our food storage. It was such a site to see. The things kids find interesting to play with!

Future Engineers

This is a great clip about future engineers. The sound really doesn't matter...it is not in English. But it is still great!

Little Girl and the Claw Machine

This is the funniest thing I have seen in a while. I was laughing so hard. Enjoy!
