Pumpkins!

The kids decided this year they wanted to paint their pumpkins instead of carve so I obviously was game! They did a great job and now they can last a bit longer!







Riley very proud of his pumpkin!!











Here is Autumn's (they did them without my help as I refuse to get around little ones with paint YUCK)

Immediately.... and Haloween

Last night Riley told Eli something and said he wanted it "Immediately" (I guess I say that too many times)

This morning on our way out (Riley and I) he told me we need to hurry and find a dog cause our cat is boring!

At T-ball practice today he climbed out of the car (Like they do on Dukes of Hazard) and I told him that we do not do that Do you know what he said?????? "I am just trying to show off Mom" Really what 4 year old tells you that????

He is one FUNNY Kid!

Autumn is such a sweety at school I went and had lunch with her at her school (the 1st time this year so far) and I took her Rosas. She was so excited that I came to eat with her. She gets to choose one friend to sit with us!

She is going to be a Dr for Haloween And Riley is going to be a HOT DOG SERIOUSLY...

The 80's party was a blast there were some very well dressed 80's clothing! It is always fun to get together with others and have a great time together!

Fall Carnival is Sat so we will have 1 very crazy crazy Sat!! Should be fun :)

Crazy crazy crazy!

But we love every minute of it!! Autumn is doing awesome at school her Teacher says she is so good and sweet. Riley loves school and his teachers tell us he is so good.

Our fall school carnival is comming up so we have been trying to get parents to volunteer to help with that is a job within itself and it is frustrating........... And we have an 80's party that we have to dress up for YIKES Pictures are going to be FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Scary but funny!!! I am loving this weather LOVING IT! The kids actually get to wear fall clothes since I am soooooooooo stinkin sick of the summer clothes!!

We also picked up the kids haloween costumes Those pictures to come also!!

Broken Heart

I have a broken Heart sometimes Life doesn't seem fair. There is a little girl at Autumn's school that is Autumn's age and she has a rare form of brain cancer that the tumor weaves through the brain stem. She was diagnosed last year and has been undergoing chemo. Well the tumor has not shrunk but has grown a bit. It is inoperable. So she is off to Houston for 6-8 weeks away from her brothers and Sister and her home. Anyways so she leaves this weekend to go to Houston to figure out the treatment plan and all that. We have kept in touch with their family and have been praying and chatting with teachers at school about her. So we have decide since she will be in Houston and her treatment only takes a couple hours each day she will not have much more to do she can't be around a lot of people as her imune system is comprimised. So today we stopped by her house and gave her her goody basket we put together for her. She is the SWEETEST girl and has the sweetest family. Right after her diagnosis last year they went and took family pictures all together before she lost all her hair and all the other side effects chemo can have. Anyways it really just seems UNFAIR that a 7 year old innocent child has this kind of disease........ They do have INCREDIBLE faith in our BIG BIG GOD but still it is hard and stressful on their family. It isa just unreal SHE IS autumn's age.

Riley funny

Not much time to update (Not like anyone reads) however I have to write this down or I will forget :)

Last night after LifeHouse we rushed home to get in bed and Riley didn't go to sleep. So we let him get up a bit longer and when we did put him to bed he told Eli

" I LOVE YOU LONGER THAN THE LONGEST BIBLE VERSE IN THE WORLD" We read a very cute book that says something along those lines but it was FUNNY!! I tell you that boy NEVER ceases to amaze me with what he says!!

Going to work at Autumn's school (School carnival is comming up)

Friday!

YES It is FRIDAY!!!! Today Riley and I had the day to ourselves and it was a stinking hoot! The boy helped me do laundry and then off to Target to pick up allergy meds. It has been a HARD week with the allergies. Riley asked me what you have to do to get married. I told him he had to find that special women when he gets older. He has to love her and respect her. He then told me he doesn't like to hold hands with girls so I asked him WHY? He said girls have slimy, sticky icky hands. I kept trying to ask more questions and he told me that he didn't want to talk about it anymore!

More later Eli just walked in the door from golfing :)
