Okay, last two... I promise!

Can you tell which one is puking? Marshall carved that one and the other is in memory of Lauren, who couldn't join us because her and Phill are in Beeville, TX.

The rest...

Heres the rest of the pictures!

I lost my pictures....

Trying again...

Carving Pumpkins!!

Tonight for FHE we carved pumpkins! Of course, it wasn't quite complete with out Lauren and Phill, but Dad carved Lauren, so she would feel like she was here and now she is! You may find some repeats on Shawneen's and Dana's blogs but thats okay. In the picture of Mia, by herself, she was helping herself to all the seeds. And with Jamies pic, she's doing this with a bad foot :( , all the rest, well, you're on your own. :)

We got PUPPIES!!

Of course, I am a little late with this news, but I wanted the puppies to be a little bit bigger. They are officially 10 days old as of this blog and the pictures were taken a couple of days ago. They are 2 females, with many a name, depending on who you talk to in the family. There eyes should start to open any day now. They are GOOD EATERS! :)

About the cake...

I found this cake while googleing cottage magazines and came across this blog, that I can't remember who it was. But she had pictures of this cake and how to make it, then posted the recipe below it. It looked wonderful and I want to try it. I'll let you know how it is later. :)

Jessie's 1st Concert Choir!

Tonight Jessie had her first concert choir for 7th grade. She goes to Poston Jr. Hi. and they held their concert over at Mountain View High School. Her group did pretty good for being the youngest of all the groups. Her grampy, Lloyd and Lorraine were able to come see it too, along with me and her dad. She's the one behind the piano, you can barely see her, but thats okay! :)

Our Extra Truck

Here is a picture of what used to be Dana's and Marshall's truck and is now mine. And as we all know, I already have a truck. So this is the one I am trying to sell. As you can see, I should be trying harder but I am not because this thing is way more fun to drive than my white one. I am not the best picture taker I decided, but you see what it is! :) 2006, F-150 supercab, 4X4, 29,800 miles...

Bath time with my grandbabies!

Thought I show my grandbabies off a little bit! My girls took their babies to the park after conference and then decided they needed a bath and then I took a goofy picture of my girls as they were watching over their kids in my bathroom. They like my tub for some reason. :)
