Insta-Friday 11.2.2012

Sit back and get ready for lots of pictures since I’ve missed a week of Insta-Friday…and there has been a lot going on.

~~~~~

I like that my boys are involved in the Boy Scouts, but I’m not a fan of the campouts.

I am so happy when they get home, even if it’s only the next day.

~~~~~

Roo was the first kidlet that wore her costume this year. She was invited to a Halloween party with a bunch of kids from school. I am so glad that she had decided to be a Hippie again this year. It sure made it easy for me.

~~~~~

When Hammie told me he wasn’t feeling well and was going to go rest for a little while I was a little concerned. Then when I found him fast asleep I was worried that he was getting sick.

I am so glad he was completely fine the next day.

~~~~~

I came across this picture from 5 years ago. I can’t believe how quickly things change.

~~~~~

This restaurant opened recently in our little town. I am usually a big fan of supporting local businesses, but for some reason this one makes me a little nervous.

~~~~~

The Friday before Halloween we had our Ward Halloween Carnival and Roo was supposed to bring cupcakes.

We made chocolate cupcakes with a TON of sprinkles…because there wouldn’t be enough sugar for the kidlets in the next few days.

~~~~~

You know it must be costume time if the crimper and the 3-barrel are both being warmed up.

~~~~~

The Pirate, the Hippie, the Coach and the HuLaLa girl ready for our Ward Halloween Carnival.

~~~~~

This guy didn’t get enough candy.

Next to the church where we had our carnival our high school football team was playing the last game of the season. They finished the season undefeated and they were ranked 2nd in our division for the state and they are going to the play-offs.

So marching band will go on…

~~~~~

Last Saturday we had the privilege of walking with my cousin and his family is the Walk-n-Roll for Spina Bifida.

Ham and B are the same age and Ham thought it was pretty cool to push B in his wheelchair on the walk.

One of our local news channel covered the walk and part of the Chaos showed up on the news.

We are already planning to walk again next year.

And hopefully next year I can smile when we have our picture taken…

~~~~~

That night the Man-Child had a Halloween Party to go to.

I think he makes a cute Fairy-Angel.

~~~~~

This cute baby is now 13!

~~~~~

Happy Birthday Einstein!

~~~~~

The many faces of Einstein…this year should be pretty interesting.

~~~~~

As soon as we sat down at Church on Sunday Hammie was trying to go to sleep…he succeeded.

~~~~~

Happy Birthday Grandma Jo!

~~~~~

I have issues with Target. While doing laundry I realized I have the same shirt in 7 different colors. I may need an intervention.

~~~~~

21 is a special number for me and Big Daddy. It made me smile when this showed up on the odometer.

~~~~~

um…YUM!

~~~~~

I made this a few years ago and it’s still one of my favorite Halloween decorations.

~~~~~

I picked Ham up from school on Halloween and was greeted by this creepiness.

~~~~~

The kidlets were ready for a night of Trick or Treating.

Big Daddy took the three littles out and Einstein ran around the neighborhood with a bunch of friends, but they didn’t really go out for candy.

That left the Man-Child…

He became the Candy-Hander-Outer…and he took it upon himself to do Quality Control checks on the candy we were handing out.

I may have helped.
