Thanksgiving dinner

Trick or Treat

Monte and the kids ready for our church carnival. Monte and Jr were "on vacation". He wanted to wear his Hawaii clothes just like Daddy.
The rough and tough cowboy, who was not happy about wearing his outfit, or getting his picture taken the night of Halloween. On the other hand the fairy princess was more than willing, she especially enjoyed Mom dolling her up with glitter and lipstick!

Knocking on our next door neighbors door who they like very much. We only go to the couple houses right by us that we know.

At our church carnival someone said I was a big belly farmer, which I thought was funny and true as I am busting out of the overalls.

carve a pumpkin

I've decided carving a pumpkin is hard work, and really quite messy. Monte carved a Mickey Mouse and I did a witch. I guess I forgot to take a picture of the finished project and they went rotten after two days, good thing Halloween was done. The kids had lots of fun helping, which is why the mess was so big!

New Yard!

Our yard is finally complete! We could not be happier or more proud of what we designed! and I'm so excited for next year when everything is a little bigger and we'll have some shade in our backyard! It was money well spent, it was fun picking out the plants, almost everything grows flowers! Cause we love flowers- the kids and I! We all enjoy being out there much more!
There is even a spot designated for the trampoline, so we don't have to move it around, yeah!

Growing baby

My growing belly at 32 weeks. Lissy and me, she loves her stuffed animals and is excited to have another baby brother.

My belly at 2o weeks, in July.

New Car for Monte

Monte finally got a new car after patiently searching and being without for two and a half months. He was able to put his motorcycles to good use though, and he took my car also. For the record the reason he needed a car was because in July he was in an accident where another car hit him. No injuries thank goodness! There was enough damage done, they decided it was too risky to repair and was able to get enough money from the insurance for his red truck. He decided he liked the four door Jeep wrangler and found one for a great price. So he's living without a truck! I don't mind, the jeep is much easier to drive, and the kids think its pretty cool also.
