Halloween 2008

Introducing.....

Miss Pink Princess Heidy!!! Isn't she lovely???She was making me a princess too....

This is my favorite one of Heidy!! Milady put on her make up.

These two, Milady and Rachel are Pirate princes, they looked like Pirate wenches to me....And Milady looks like she got into a little trouble with a mean ole Pirate!!

The 3 Princesses....

Donnie and Maci...

I LOVE this one of Maci, I didn't even plan this picture to be so good, but I love it!! No cropping or anything done to it.

Mady and her mommy Jennifer and Justin, came over after Trick or Treating was over!! The girls both had on brown pjs.

Not a great picture of Heidy but it shows her hair.... Not sure about the face she is making!!

Heidy and her Locks of Love

Milady (in the grey top, in the back ground) wanted to get her bangs cut. So I called Melanie, a friend of mine. And she had time, so we went and Mil got her bangs cut and Heidy cried, she wanted her hair cut too. We had been talking about it, and so I said ok.......

First she got it washed like a big girl, she loved that!!

Measuring how long we can cut off. We started out 8 inches, but it is finally a 10 inch ponytail!!
Cutting!!!!

Heidy was so happy!! Here she is with her ponytail!! We are sending it to Locks of Love.

Melanie (dressed for Halloween) , is styling it for Heidy...

Here they are, the two girls with new "doos". Milady's hubby Chad was with us.

Melanie and Heidy.... Melanie was not really happy that we came in on Halloween, when they were dressed up!!

Isn't she a cutie with her new hair cut?? We think so!! Thanks Melanie!!

Fall Harvest Party at Preschool 2008

Heidy's preschool had their Fall Harvest Party, everyone was supposed to dress up as a farmer. All Heidy had was jeans, cowboy boots and a cowboy hat. So that is what she wore.

Her whole class, You can't see the cute pumpkins, on the window because we had to shut the blinds.
Eating cupcakes, Maci was with me since, it was a Thursday and I babysit her on that day.
Heidy's big fake smile.....

Getting ready for a hayride, look at Maci's face, we forgot to clean her up, I did as soon as she got off the hayride!!

Dress the Scarecrow game, it was so cute watching them do this....

They had a great time. I am thankful I get to go to things like this with Heidy!!

Fall Festival 2008 at our Chruch

On Sunday night the 26th of October, we had our annual Fall festival at church!! The kids can dress up and so can the workers, it is really cool. I was at the photo booth, taking pictures!!

17 year old Skyler -- Today!

My daughter Skyler is now officially 17. She told me this morning she wanted me to cook dinner, so I did and then this afternoon she told me that she wanted a Dairy Queen Cake. So.... that is what she got.... she didn't give me enough time to order one so she got a jungle theme. She loved it.
See? It's my cake and I can lick this if I want to..... ( sung to the tune of It's my party) She is one silly gal!
I can't ever get her to be serious in a picture!!!

I can't believe the child, that was the last one I gave birth to, is 17 years old.

She is a great girl, and I thank God for her and pray that she has a wonderful life!!

I love you Skyler!!
Mom

Ana, who was our exchange student 13 years ago from the beautiful country of Mexico, is still like a daughter to us! She married a young man who is from 30 minutes from us, but they live in Indianapolis. She came to visit for the weekend. She has given us two beautiful grandsons!! Andrew is the oldest and Alex is the baby. We have gotten to know part of her family in Mexico and part of Tim's family too. We love her and her special family!!
