PIE NIGHT

Tonight is our 1st ever PIE NIGHT.

Sammie's 9th Birthday (stolen blog)

I am such a bad blogger about our family. I guess I feel like I am around it every day and so it is not that big of a deal to quickly post to my blog. My sister Carrie is the worlds best blogger. She documents the things that are important and the things that are funny and the things that are spiritual and the things that are silly.... yes, I know this is a run on sentence, but I want to show that she blogs about everything. Well I "borrowed" these posts from her blog. *see how she even blogs about important things about her nieces and nephews!!!! Carrie you are amazing and thanks for blogging this so I could steal it and have it on my blog! LOVE YOU!

We got to celebrate Sammie's birthday with her! She turned 9 and wanted to go to the mall & get her ears pierced so the girls went to support her. She was so brave & her new earrings look BEAUTIFUL!Proud of you Sammie! Happy Birthday!

Sam didn't want cake for her birthday, she wanted Elf Spaghetti (a la the movie Elf). That is a tradition that Jeff & Kim started with their boys and they were pro's- particularly Asher. We had a table full of candy, pop tarts, cookies, maple syrup, chocolate syrup & of course....spaghetti noodles. The kids LOVED IT! and the most disgusting part is that they actually ATE the noodles.

Trevor's Money Tree

We made a deal with Trevor that if he got straight A's then he would get 100.00. If he got all A's and 1 B then he would get 75.00. He got his report card yesterday and he got all A's and 1 B. So my mom suggested that I make him a money tree to give him his money. HE LOVED IT!!!! I love the picture of him seeing his grades! He is such a good young man and we love him so much!

Halloween 2008

We had such a fun Halloween this year! Trevor was a fictional character that he created called "Commander Carrot" (Don't ask), Sammie wanted to be a fairy but she ended up getting stitches right above her eye 2 days before so she decided to be a dead fairy. I thought she looked super scary! Jerry was a ninja. Sadie was an egyptian princess. She wasn't a big fan of eye liner. She kept blinking and then would wipe her eye. ALL IN ALL it was a fun time!

Here is a close up of the 4 stitches and you can tell that by her eyebrow it is swollen. I covered the yellow bruise with the gray and purple makeup!

~Jerry Lost His FIRST TOOTH~

Jerry is 6 1/2 and I thought his baby teeth were going to stay forever but I was wrong! We were on our way to a Halloween Party and he came to me with his mouth all bloody and holding the TINIEST TOOTH EVER! His other tooth is already in and it is like a sharks tooth because of how far back it came in... Hello Orthodontist!
