Halle can write her first and last name! Pretty good for 3 1/2 yrs old!
Gracie got her first perm and loves it!
Bop has his first loose tooth. He really wants candy from the tooth fairy. I thought she brought money?
We had an early birthday party for Lisa (and Trav, even though he did not want it). I made this way fun rainbow cake. I got the idea from a good friend Audrie and it turned out awesome if I do say so myself. The inside was my fav and Lisa was pretty surprised when I cut into it. This cake may have been my fav that I have ever done (and was super easy).

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Halle and Chloe as Minnie Mouse and Princess Jasmine, these were their costumes for their first ever dance party!
Not to be left out, Berkley (cheese).
Halle was upset with me just now for using blue so we had to change to purple. These two are so dang cute and play well (now).
Halle got to go to Gid and Gracie's kindergarten party with me to do a game. It was dress up day so she dressed up also. She was so excited to meet Mrs. Koller and see the kids class.
Enough already mom.
I pay so much attention to details. After I posted this I noticed Gracie has her "don't do drugs" ribbon on, Gid's jacket is not done up and Halle is totally loosing her skirt. Oh well. We did a lot of the same costumes this year as last. Gotta get the most out of the fireman outfit and Gracie just loves Pippi Longstocking plus with her red hair it just works awesome. Halle wanted to be a ballerina and since I did not have to buy anything for that it worked so awesome. Love cheap costumes.
Our kids with the Goodliffe cousins (minus Hannah) so dang cute.
Fireman Gid
Pippi, so so dang cute
the rest of the costume. Happy Halloween everyone. Don't forget to check out my last post on moose hunting!

MOOSE HUNTING.....OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I bet you can't tell from the number of exclamation marks on this post that I am super excited that hunting season is over! It has been a long 2 months once elk got over it was on to moose for the boys! Alan drew out for a moose this year and he got a good one! Gid was so excited to be there for it!
Gid posing with just Grandpa.
All the happy hunters! Good thing Chad brought his tri-pod to get a picture of all of them.
Again with Grandpa. The video was hilarious because when Brian and Alan went down to make sure that the moose was dead and Chad was filming it the moose (which Brian and Alan were yanking on) was moving and Gid about crawled up Chad's leg because the moose was still alive. He was a happy boy though when he called to tell me they got a moose.
The happy hunter! You can only kill a moose every 65 years. I am glad they had fun but I know me and two other wives that are way excited to have husbands again!
