Thirty-four

Two things I love about this pictures: First thing is that i actually had the 3 and the 4 in the drawer and i actually have a seven, its kind of our tradition. So when i get to 37 or 73 i can use my numbers. Second thing i love is that even though it is my birthday, i didn't have time to put a real shirt on but I am wearing a Free shirt from Academy that i never even wear out of the house. The real story is that Carter drove in from out of town on my birthday and we didn't see him til about 7:30pm that night. So i was already dressed down for my party. Actually Carter showed up at the door with flowers and an ice cream cake from dairy queen. I do love how happy we all look and am glad i have this picture of my family.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Kick or Treat

Okay, these are the cutest kids ever. I am so partial. I am supposed to be. I have to give some details about yesterday... we woke up so late yesterday and Samuel had a play but i hurried them and sure enough Bella and Samuel got into and Samuel gave her one of those great Muay Thai kicks that knocks you down.

Because Samuel had to alter his ninja costume to make the cow costume. He was really upset about that. He opted to be a policeman. He actually really liked that because he got to wear his all time favorite clothing item....wait for it..... jean shorts. He pays $1.00 every Friday just to wear them.

As to my brother's comment about favorite clothes, I too understand. Don't we all have our favorite? And for Samuel its all about being comfortable.
And Victoria really wanted to be as she called it, "pigelet." And sweetie Isabella... she told Carter, "something that works with cows and horses. guess what it is?"
This morning they woke up with bright purple hair and pumpkins on their faces.
