I've been tagged....here are 6 random things about me.

1.) I complain about it, but I actually like it when all my kids crawl in my bed at night. It's so cozy....and squishy, but they're so sweet like that.

2.) I actually don't like all the house improvement I do, I really just do it so I can decorate it, which I love.

3.) I would normally describe myself (when not pregnant) as someone who drinks way too much coffee and runs around with my head cutt-off. (Possibly, a slight case of adult ADD).

4.) I'm a good piano player and a horrible guitar player, but I enjoy both.

5.) I think there's nothing better in life then a fall or winter Sunday morning, with my husband, my kids running around wild, a cup of hot coffee and the paper. You have no idea what I would give for one of those mornings.

6.) Nothing touches my heart more than when my kids show me that they are understanding what life is really about.....what God wants us to do, and by taking care of others, as we would wants someone to do for us, we get the greatest joy of all.

Halloween 2008!

Yes, here are the superheros at their best! So much for the Hulk brothers, Luke wanted to be his good ol' Spiderman self...lots of holes in this costume by now, and Joel decided to wear Luke's Batman pj's at the last minute, so we had to throw on a cape and make a quick mask. Here they are climbing on my 1940's house detailing. They love to climb it to the ceiling like the real Spiderman would :)

Holly's boyfriend, Alex, with the Hulk gloves.

Brady bannana-man, and the other kids in an action shot. Didn't Carinn do an awesome job on his costume!

Holly and Alex as the cheapest thing they could find to be.....raindeer from the dollar store.
Chloe as, yes you guessed it, Hannah Montana. This is what happens when you buy a cheap wig a month before Halloween. Note to self, buy this the day before, as they are impossible to comb through.Yes, the picture is awefull! I worked that day, and was so tired, so I told Holly that I should go as a single, white-trash, pregnant mom, or something like that. So, we had a really good laugh creating this shot. No, I didn't go like this, but the picture turned out so awefull, that I had to post it. I love all the canning boxes and food dryer in the back.
First stop....Granmpa and Granma Pentecost's house.

Second stop was our farm's harvest dinner at Granny's and the third stop was our friend, Jessica's Halloween party. Here she is with her doggie.

Chloe bustin' a move with her first time at Guitar Hero! .....you rock!

Our friends Nate and Heather Brown came to stay with us this week. They are the makers of Maid Naturally, a buisness that I have advertised to the side that includes all sorts of wonderfull things to clean your house organically (sold at Yokes). It was so much fun to have them! I have to add that there new Cinnamon and Orage house cleaning spray is my new favorite. It smells awesome and reminds me of Christmas! Aren't they cute!

Nothing but Noodles

Lately, I've been working more than usual, so the kids and I will sometimes hit restraunts on the nights where kids eat free. Well this week, I finally worked on a Monday, so we went to Nothing but Noodles where the kids eat free on Monday nights. It was Yummy!

Yum.....peanut sauce!

Chloe, being silly.

Luke doing the same.

Aunt Holly coloring with Joel. I think they're drawing a pumpkin.

Joel was the funniest, because he insisted on eating everything with his chopsticks....just like his dad! Here he's eating his breadstick with the chopsticks.

The Cousins are Here!

Dayna and I

Keith, who came off the plane to see everyone in a lion's suit! He's obviously a very fun uncle!

Chloe and Raleigh, best of friends :)

Holly and Heidi

Cutie patootie Noelle!

Last weekend my cousins Dayna, Heidi and Keith came to town to make applesauce and hangout. Dayna has 4 kids (and #5 on the way), so our kids have an awesome time playing together. It was so great to get to see and visit with everyone!

Joel's in Jail!

Here's a picture of Joel "In Jail". I have lots of great pics on my camara, but we have currently been experiencing technical difficulties, so here's a pic that Holly sent me. She was hoping the square would look like a picture frame, but I insist that it looks like he's in jail.

Spending the chore money

So, the kids have been earing chore money now for 4 months. The boys have been saving for Hulk boxing gloves and Chloe has been saving for "something Hannah Montana". Today, Hulk boxing gloves went on sale and therefore, the boys were able to achieve the they have been working hard for....purchasing the Hulk boxing gloves! (I might regret letting them get these!)

The funniest part of the entire process was shutting down the line at Target for at least 10 minutes while the lady counted out $45.00 worth of nickle and dime change in baggies! I think they were pretty annoyed, but I thought the whole thing was wonderful!
