Happy Halloween! 10-30-08 10:47pm CST
The kids finally got to paint their pumpkins. Would you believe we STILL haven't carved the big pumpkin we picked up? Sad. Maybe I can get it carved tomorrow and have it in time to take to the party tomorrow night.



I made the cake for the Halloween party tomorrow night. I thought it turned out pretty neat! I definitely have some practice to do on getting my icing smoother (among other things...), but I'm my own worst critic!



missyLooks like fun! Cute cake! 
split_rockThe kids look like they're having fun. Don't forget to roast the pumpkin seeds! 
curlieCute! That's quite the cake! 
bballlizlove the cake. the kids are so cute! 
darleen21wish I could come to the party, your cake looks great! Good job. 
jerzgirlGreat job! 
pettymamaTake lots of picutres at the party so I can see everyone :) I say this every year but I miss those parties!!! 
mjintexasCool cake!! Love Caden taking it so seriously. Cute! 
tessLove the cake! 
tessHow exciting that you only have a month left...it really just seems like yesterday that you announced your pregnancy. I hope mine goes by as quickly as yours...but I am trying to enjoy every minute learning new things about what my body can/is doing! 
scbrewerNice cake!! 
loveofjebsanything biblical in Spanish for Ceasar. He has a good bible but any other book would be great. I know the christian book stores carry some spanish stuff. Kitchen stuff would be good for Margarita or something pampering because she's still a nursing mom. 
loveofjebsAndres is not growing. :) He is very small. Still in 1T now and his feet are VERY small. So keep that in mind. Where they live it is really hot most of the year, except in Dec. and Jan. 
loveofjebsAnd no I don't mind. 
ewalkerPainting looks fun!

Your cake is GREAT! 
darleen21Do you have any pictures from the halloween party? 
split_rockAs I was leaving work today, a co-worker asked how the grandchildren were doing. I told her Joseph would be born soon -- then realized you're due a month from today!! Won't be long now! 
razzI hope to be able to come visit you soon- I know I keep saying that but it is in my plans. It will probably be after you have this little one though. :-)

Miriam's post reminded me... 10-28-08 10:10pm CST
I was checking my e-mail (finally) and I had a spam mail that said

Do Not Read This



...


So I deleted it.

Glad that's settled.
dr_wormIt's nice when they're straightforward with you. 
mjintexasLOL... yep. That's how it goes. 
stylinmamaHa, that was nice of them to warn you like that. 
cbonklol! 
rachelwFriendly spammers you have! 
loveofjebsGreat if you can participate send me your email. 
razzyep that would be them- she is really sweet. Her and Michael throw a huge halloween party every year and theme it- the 20's was this year and we had so much fun.

Halloween Fest 10-24-08 10:32pm CST
For the last few years (this is only our second time to go), a park near us holds a Halloween Fest where local businesses set up booths for kids to come "trick-or-treat" and play games. It's a lot of fun. We took the kids last Saturday (once again, I'm a week behind!!) and they had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures of the kids in their costumes.


split_rockCute! 
gkbakerAwww 
alp1926Looks like a lot of fun!! 
sarai_31Who was Caden dressed up as? 
anneAwww! 
pollymhcute costumes. how did Jenna do with the costume? so far Jonas seems to be afraid of all of the costumes so far. 
mrs_wormCaden is a pirate ... it's a Pirates of the Caribbean costume 
mrs_poochiecute 
split_rockAny of your family affected by the UCA shootings? 
tessIt seems like just yesterday you announced you were expecting...how many weeks now?

I remember looking forward to knowing what you were having and now I'm at that point (2 weeks from tomorrow!)...man how time flies! 
razzhey- I met someone that used to go to church with you this weekend- Pipa Holt? (I think that's the last name now) Husband Michael? Yea, they're Jason's cousins :-) Small world.

Our Home (well, parts of it!) 10-08-08 10:57pm CST
I've probably mentioned a couple things on my blog regarding things we've received for our home. I know I talked about the furniture that was handed down to me through my Mom's side of the family. I've been meaning to post pictures of it!

Well, today, I finally got pictures of all the things that are "different" in our home recently. We've done some moving around of things and I'm really happy with our set up so far. I love our home!!

So, enjoy the pictures!

I got to put together another track set-up for Caden's train. Caden said, "WOW, this is cool!"


Starting with this picture and going through the next 5, you can see our sunroom/playroom. Yes, our children have been abundantly blessed with toys from family!! This is ALL of them. I LOVE that they ALL are in ONE room. The general rule is that they STAY in this room. That doesn't always happen, though!


Starting here and going through the next 3, you can see our living room. It's smallish .. and maybe looks crowded to most people, but we're happy with it. Now if someone can only help me figure out WHERE I'm going to put my x-mas tree, I will be much happier!! Augh!! (didn't think about that until AFTER we moved things around like this!)


This is one of the decorations Andy let me buy earlier this week for Fall. I don't have a picture of the other one, but it's a 24" scarecrow and I have him sitting on a small hay bale. He's sitting in the corner of my front porch. Cute! Thank you, honey!


This picture and the next 2 were taken to have my "Vintage" item to display for Vintage Thursday. This was at my mom's house for a while. I don't know if Grandad (her dad) passed it to her or if they found it together, but Grandad said this style of desk was like the ones he used as a child in school. I think it's super cool. I plan to let the kids take turns using it for school work.


This and the next 2 pictures are of the furniture that was passed down to me recently. There's a mirror that goes to the powder table (the changing table), but we don't need to use it yet. There's also a headboard/footboard and they are out in the shed until we need them. I love this furniture!


This and the next 2 pictures show my Fuzzibunz stash and a few of my cloth wipes! We're getting ready for Joseph to arrive!

DessertDivaI LOVE that school desk! I almost bought one at an antique store but it was bolted with 3 or 4 other desks and I just wasn't prepared to make that commitment! :) That blue desk is SO cute. I love the pattern in it - it looks so shabby chic! Thank you so much for sharing! 
cbonkYour house looks so bright and sunny! I really like your sunroom...if you want to see crowded, come to our little place. We joke that if we had a baby, we'd have to clean out a dresser drawer for him to sleep in! 
christinadixonThanks, Rachel:) 
split_rockThe sunroom looks so different! Glad you have been able to open up some more space. 
pollymhthat furniture you got is so pretty! thanks again for your help with the kids. 
be_with_me_lordWould moving the end table that is between the love seat and couch allow you to put the tree there or move one of the other pieces to make room for the tree? 
kaceyatthebatI love the school desk and powder table! How chic! 
kaceyatthebatDo you know approximately when you would be able to mail those clothes I got? I was just reminded about them because the weather got a little cooler today. I hope you're having good luck selling. 
mrs_wormmaybe! We also discussed moving the desk to the sunroom for the "season" and putting the tree there. It's a medium sized tree, so we might have to move the couches around a little to make walking space!! Thanks for pointing that out. We could easily put the games/etc on that table in the closet! 
kaceyatthebatOkay great! Thanks for the heads up. I'll look for them in a few days then. :) 
mrs_poochiethe play room looks like fun! 
bjcrumptonDidn't know whether to comment up here or down below, but I saw your post on Mothering Group, and would like to make an order. I don't have a gold account, can you post your email address on my site so I can email my order? 
keebslove the powder table!! 
littlelambI love the blue furniture! 
happinessisthelordyou all have a cute place; what a blessing! do you plan to homeschool the kiddos or jsut use the desk for homework? how have you been feeling with lil joseph growing within you?
