October 2008

Another busy October has come and gone. Time just seems to fly by. Sophie was pretty funny with her costume this year. I had all these great ideas, because she is only 2 and I should still be able to determine what she is going to dress up as, not the case. She was quite adamant about being a princess. She didn't necessarily care what kind, she just knew she wanted to be a princess and there was no changing her mind. On Halloween night she went as a princess for 1/2 the night and then put on a dinosaur costume that Abi wore when she was almost 2. I guess she got tired of the princess. Abi was going to be a football player, but changed her mind and went as a witch (a very cute witch). On Halloween day she switched things up and was a Genie for 1/2 the day, a witch for trick or treating. Although I always have great plans to do all the fun Halloween activities, we didn't quite make it to everything I wanted to. We did, however, make it to a few fun things; we went to Gardner Village the week before Halloween to see all the witches and the petting zoo (Sophie loved the baby pigs), Ken and Carol took Abi and Sophie to a pumpkin patch, and of course trick or treating on Halloween. This was the first year we actually stayed home and I can't believe how many trick or treaters we have in our neighborhood. Here are some random pictures from Halloween festivities in October.

The Dawes' came over on Halloween night....here's all the kids

Our glorious pumpkins

Dino the dinosaur

Trin and Zack

Mason as a not so happy Ute cheerleader and my beautiful Genie

Lily even dressed up as a witch, but we really wanted to find a devil costume, although she is that every day.

This is right before we went to Gardner Village...me and my girls'

She is such a pretty princess

Dallas Cowboys....America's Team

Lance has always wanted to go to a Cowboys game at Texas Stadium so him and his dad went to the Dallas Cowboys Monday night football game on September 15th. I don't think they could have picked a better game to go to, and needless to say, they had a great time.

Kind of weird, because when I was looking through his pictures there were an awful lot of the Cheerleaders and very few of anything else.....but as they say, behind every man is an even better woman and behind every great football team there are even better cheerleaders!!!

Who's Number 1????

I promised I wouldn't tell, but Ken admitted that he truly is a Cowboys' fan (but honestly, who isn't at heart)

Lance's favorite player of all time...the one, the only, Roger Staubach!!!

Isn't he so cute?

and the final score..........

Our up and coming Cowboys' fan. Lance brought Sophie a pink Romo T-shirt that is so cute....When she's wearing it she will tell you "don't touch my Romo"

Our newest addition

Me and the girls' (well me and Abi) have tried to talk Lance into getting a new puppy or kitty for over a year now. We started about 3 weeks ago, asking for a kitty and he was very adamant with his No. I think we worked it the right way, because when we found this little beagle, he gave us a reluctant "I don't care"..... that was Yes to us and we did not hesitate. Her name is Lily (Sophie calls her Lilylilylou) and she is so so cute and of course, as anyone knows who has had a puppy, she is definitely a lot of work. Abi and Sophie adore her, and although Belle has not taken on the motherly role, Belle loves her too.

Aren't they just the cutest beagles you have ever seen????

Look at that sweet sweet face

and of course, Bellesy

When I was a youngster, I always wanted four kids....well here they are. I love this picture.

First day of school

I can't hardly believe my baby is in the 4th grade (9 years old). The years go by too fast, and I am so proud of the sweet girl that she has become.

My beautiful Lily

My two favorite flowers are lilies and daisies...Abi's flower is a Daisy (April)and Sophie is my Lily (July). These were in our backyard. The blooms were hunormous, but only stayed for a day or two.

Sophie's first hair cut (by Debbie of course)

Here are a few pictures of Sophie getting her first hair cut. I'm not sure if she was just scared to death or being a REALLY good girl, but she sat statue still the whole time. I really wish I would have got a photo of her baby mullet that she had going on before the haircut.
