Tea Time

For our monthly Literature Tea, we met at Kimberlees and talked about "Charlotte's Web." It's always a fun time for the girls and the moms.

Happy Harvest

For Halloween this year we went to the Whitakers for a Harverst Party. Kathy outdid herself making the evening fun for the kids and relaxing for the parents. She had tons of super fun games for kids of all ages, and she cooked up a storm. We plan on making this a yearly tradition.


All the girlies.

Las Vegas!!!

This past weekend we were given free passes to a Mother/Daughter conference in Vegas. It ended up that we got our hotel room for free too. We drove out with Patty Marine and her daughter, Jessica. Along with the conference, we enjoyed seeing the sites, and of course the shopping!!!



This is my counselor, Carrie Osborne. the reason she is wearing such a silly outfit is because she is a HUGE fan of the L.S.U. Tigers. Her husband bought her her whole outfit and she even has a tail!!!


Jessica and I with the Sonflowerz ~ they were our worship leaders for the weekend.






 On our last day there, we went out to eat at the Blueberry Hill for breakfast.


Jessica got the Chocolate Pancakes ~ She ended up wearing as much as she ate.


After breakfast we went to Las Vegas to shop ~ Us, being girls, we loved the hats.






Me and Jessica LOVED posing for this picture ~ we felt like models.



After finishing store #1, we went to store #2 ~ The M&M store.




 
Me and Jessica loved filling are candy bags to the top w/ M&Ms!!!!




While we were there, we saw a 3-D M&M movie.





Me and Jessica in front of a window in the top floor in the M&M store!!!




After finishing store #2 we went to store #3, The Coca~Cola store. Posing w/ this polar bear was tons of fun.... and yes he is trying to take my hat!!!


 


Mr. Polar Bear, Me, and Jessica.

Raising Money

Our co-op is trying to earn money to go on fieldtrips this year. In November, we're headed to Indian Camp and while it will be FUN, it will also be expensive. On Saturday we had a booth at the Temecula Swap Meet. We all pitched in and made things to sell.  It was fun to see Hannah and Tiffany "work" the crowd. They are REALLY good sales people...just like their daddy.

Making Us Smile and Not Even Knowing

Funny how kids act out what they see. One of the girls VERY dear friends got very sick this week and was air lifted to the ICU in San Diego. She couldn't breath and she had an elevated heart rate and a high fever. She's fine now, but we were all scared and worried about her. Chad looked out the front window today and found the girls acting out poor Audra's condition. It was nice to smile~ even when our hearts were so heavy for our precious friend.





Should I Be Concerned????

One day I came home and Liberty had a swim diaper on her head. She was acting like a Ninja and the kids were cracking up. The next day they ALL started doing this. Chad took these pictures. Again, I ask you, should I be concerned???
