Caught


Well here is Gracie once again picking her nose AND smiling about it! I don't know how many times she has been told to STOP picking her nose... but she is not getting the hint! She is even to the point now that she gets bloody noses. I don't understand why she likes to do it. A part of me wants to say because she knows how bad it drives me crazy!!

The girls and Daddy


Where here are the girls with their daddy. They have been so excited to see Jake. Every evening when he gets home they both bolt to the front door yelling "daddy, daddy" it is very cute to see. I think that Gracie had the hardest time this past month when Jake was gone. She has been sick a lot and when she is sick for some reason all she wants is her daddy. Which many of you know for the longest time she wanted nothing to do with Jake, so this is a very big thing!! Kaytlin really missed him also but we have come to the conclusion that she understands now that when daddy leaves its not for good... that eventually he will be home! But I must say it sure is really nice having him home again!! Life is just so much easier!!

We voted... And we LOST

Well this is the very first election that I voted. I thought it was a very important one. We all know that this election is making history.... BUT I am worried. I have NOTHING against colored people but Obama being elected president not only puts my husbands job (military) in jeopardy but it also effects so many other aspects of our life. Really how can we support a man that wont even salute our flag. I have no respect for this man, I really hope that he dose what he says he is going to do to. I understand that America needs a change, we are all in a bad spot. And I really hope that things don't get worse. Last night was a very crazy night. Lets all pray that things go the way they should. I hope that America pulls together for our kids and the kids to come. And I must say I agree with my SIL Jenny.... "I hope they really looked into what he wants to do for this country and voted on that and not just color of his skin. I am not racist I never have been and never will be."

All three Girls

Here are all three of the girls. Ryann, Gracie and Kaytlin. Ryann was not really in the mood to hold still for pictures so we had to snap really fast. So hopefully Natalie got some good ones!!
All the girls really had fun. I think the most fun they had though was at dinner where they all became really hyper! Which I did not get any pictures of because my camera died. Oh well all in all this was one of the best Halloweens that we have had!

At the front of the zoo

Sorry this picture is really blurry but this is the only one of Kaytlin where she is actually looking st me. But it still turned out really cute. Here is Gracie being silly as always! This is her "cheese" smile.
Here are both of the girls when we first arrived at the zoo waiting for our good friends the Hunsakers! We all sure did have a blast and plan on making it a yearly thing we do!



Kaytlin in her Costume

This year Kaytlin wanted to be a princess (like always) but she also wanted to have wings so that is what she got.
I think it turned out very cute! She was so excited to wear it and to go trick-or-treating. That's all she talked about.!

These are her wings they were very big and dramatic, but that is they way she is so it all fit together.

I crimped up her hair to day so that it would have lots of curls. She has some of the prettiest hair that I have ever seen. Also I put a little make up on her.. she looks so pretty and so grown up! Makes me so sad!!



The many "shades" of Gracie

So Gracie started this year out as a "Pirate Princess." She was acting silly and I was unable to get a really good picture of her costume. She did look really cute in it. Then one day I was at Old Navy and found this really cute "Mouse" costume. And I absolutely feel in love with it! She also really liked it at first.
I drew on some whiskers and gave her a pink nose but you really cannot tell because she was grumpy and wanted out of it. But she did look really cute in this one also. But once she saw that sissy had wings she was done with the mouse. So....

First thing on Halloween morning I was out trying to find her a costume that had wings. AND we were in luck!! Thank goodness. In this picture below she is showing off her wings. She was very happy with her Tinkerbell costume. She is a very spoiled little girl,.

Her she is looking very beautiful in her Tinkerbell costume she a crown. Can't forget that. LOL

She has some of the cutest smiles. She is a very animated little girl.
