Lots to be Thankful For

YEA! It is officially the Holiday season! I LOVE this time of year because of all the get togethers, parties, festivities, family and friends in town, etc. We had a great Thanksgiving. In the morning Clark and I did crafts, next we all went on a family bike ride around the neighborhood and then we stopped by the Weeds. At my parents, I made pie crust with my mom, Rob and I jumped on the tramp, Christy played the role of paparazzi and Clark played with the girls. After our visit, we headed over for Thanksgiving at the Nelsons. Kathleen, of course, out did herself. Everything was delicious, the table was darling and everyone was there minus Robs oldest brother Wayne and his family...who we really really missed! It was so fun visiting with everyone. Late last night, we ended the night with Harry Potter with Robs dad and sister Emily and her husband...thank you mom for watching the boys so late. Gobble Gobble, the end.

Recently Kurt and Clark have started to really play together and it just melts my heart. I love these two boys and I am so glad that they are becoming best buds.

These Boys are Buddies

*yes, I know Clarks face is covered in sticky sucker in the last picture. Grandma JuJu gave him a rainbow sucker on the way home and he fell asleep on the drive. I think his fingers were a little sticky too, bc I found Kurt sucking on Clarks fingers while he was asleep. No worries, we brushed his teeth extra good when he woke up.

Halloween 2010

We started off our Saturday Halloween at our Ward Party. We had a great time, Clark especially loved the Haunted house and seeing his buddies. After, we headed to my family's ward party for their famous fry bread and rootbeer. Clark spotted another kid dressed and Superman, and I'm not sure how he felt about he not being the only Superman. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him run full speed up to the kid with his arms extended, as if he were flying, and start running circles around the poor boy. Im not sure if he was trying to have some kind of superman showdown or what, but it was cracking us up! After eating, we headed down my two favorite streets, with some of the neighbors I have knows my whole life. It was so fun to see familiar faces. Clark was in heaven and was on a serious candy mission! After we trick-or-treated, Clark recruited people to come trico-or treating at my parents house as he yelled, "We've got Candy over here! Come get Candy!" He had just as much fun passing the candy out as he did collecting it. To my astonishment, Clark agreed to trade his candy bag for a Superman tin Lunch box! Who would have thought?! My sister Christy had to work at SweetCakes, so we went down to say hello and grab a treat. It was a great Halloween, and Im pretty sure I had the cutest Clark Kent (Kurt) and Superman on the block!

October Festivities

I LOVE holidays...even more so now that I have kids! This month has been full of get-togethers and parties. We were able to get together with Rob's buddies and their families, we went to a costume Halloween party with my friends, Clark went to Fin's Halloween Party and had a blast running around and experiencing pop rocks for the first time, Clark dressed up for his preschool bash, and yesterday we went to Rob's work trick-or -treating party, complete with several mini haunted houses and great costumes and trick-or treating stations. To say we have gotten our money's worth out of Clark's superman costume would be a HUGE understatement. Im surprised it is not in complete shreds. Every time he puts it on, he instantly becomes Superman, flying around the house and jumping off couches, chairs, tables, etc. I about died laughing when I took him out to take a pic before his friends Halloween party and he posed with out prompt. ...hand on hip, thumbs up with the other hand, a smile, and my favorite, a WINK! Happy Halloween!
