You better not be...

NAUGHTY at our house!

Notice the nice shiner on Justin's eye...really he wasn't being naughty, he was actually being really good! He was helping the young men with a service project at the church. They were cutting off the bottoms of the doors that were draging on the carpet and were carrying the door back in and the arm on the door hit him in the eye when his "helper" shifted the door! We're just grateful that it didn't get any closer to his eye. It's been a week now and it looks much better, it sure did make for a good story whenever anyone saw it!

Pump It Up Fun!

For family night last night we got to go to our friends Jimmy and Maggie's B-day party. We all had lots of fun and Malia learned to climb the stairs of the Jolly Jump slide! Lainey enjoyed posing for the camera! And even Lyndie went down a few times.

Thrift Store Finds

Oh how we love our thrift stores! Last week when we went to the thrift store Lainey spotted these butterfly wings all on her own! She was so proud of herself and can't wait to wear them for halloween, she practices almost everyday! Take a look at the oh so cute pink boots, that I almost bought her at Target for $12.99 two days before when they were on sale, thrift store price, $2.99, and it's obvious they were never worn!

Recycled Halloween Costumes

This was Lainey's costume a few years ago and I loved it so much I convinced my girls that we ought to be bugs this year so that Malia could wear the costume. She is so excited to be a lady bug...we are still debating what bug the baby will be...there is this cool costume exchange here this weekend and I am hoping I can find her a bee or a spider costume. Malia has become quite the little mother these days, her baby accompanies her everywhere and she just made a bed for her on the floor with about 4 blankets and came to me and said, "shh, my baby sleeping."

Look at me now!

My baby is growing up way too fast! She pulled herself up to this chair all by herself!

Opening day...

of LOBSTER SEASON, so Justin ventured out into the chilly sea to search for Lobsters with the young men from church. We were grateful he didn't spend the outrageous amount to buy a fishing license since there were no LOBSTERS to be seen! He says it was fun even if he did get a big knot in his leg and it was COLD!
