FALL!!

It is Fall here in the Northwest and absolutely beautiful! Last weekend we went for a drive and took many pictures of the gorgeous leaves. Even caught some family pics! The kids were wonderful in the car. We took a bunch of head phones and movies and off we went. Madelon got to bring a precious friend. We stopped for a yummy lunch with super yummy shakes. We stopped at a covered bridge that looked like part of an old train route. The kids played on a little school playground. Folks- this is a one room school.... tiny!
They were troupers and rewarded with taffy at the end of the trip. Gonna show you the pictures but keep scrolling down and will give you the rest of the story.....

 Look at my BABY!! Not a baby anymore!! :{

So the rest of the week was a little busy. Thomas started traveling to Moses Lake ( a satellite office) and I caught a cold. You know the kind that just makes you feel totally off and you never know if your nose is going to run or be stopped up. 

The kids got costumes via online and got the box. Excitement was brimming in the house and everyone had to "try" it on!! It was a lot of fun. Thomas was thrilled to see the kids all dressed up when he got home. He tries to act like things come too early but when he sees the joy in their faces--- he forgets he is a stick in the mud! :}

Tonight- the boys are at a hockey game with their Dad. This is exciting stuff. The Wenatchee Wild dyed the ice pink and are wearing pink jerseys for Breast Cancer Awareness month. Thomas got to drop the puck to the guys and the boys got to go out on the ice. I don't think they understood the magnitude of this event. People just don't get to go do this every game. I hope they had fun!! Total awesome "dude" bonding moment!!

I, on the other hand, stayed home with my girls and big H... and Memom. We painted fingers and toes, dressed those up with Halloween stickers and topped it off with glitter top coat. We ate popcorn.... after I burnt the first 2 ???? WHAT????

Then sat and watched MADELINE.... OMG- cute, cute movie. Total Mommy and girls movie! I even cried!

So- the evening ended up with a tickle fest- lots of kisses and a memory I pray they store in their brains! They are awesome, goofy, silly ,BEAUTIFUL and loving girls.

I am blessed with ALL my kids!!

On a final note--- I get to go to 2 yes TWO social events (big ones, my understanding for Wenatchee) in November! I ACTUALLY get to dust, yes dust off my gorgeous high heeled shoes and put makeup on and a nice dress and go out! WHOO-HOO-- Jillian, get ready to kick my $%#*!! Wanna look killer! I am saying that because I have to GET into something that is smaller than me at the moment!! SIGH!!

Oh- one other thing- cut my hair off and love it! Its a little too dark, but it will lighten up in a week!

Hugs and Blessings to all
