an hour and a half

I stood in line today for an hour and a half to vote for

CHUCK BALDWIN

I couldn't bring myself to vote for either of the candidates, so I voted with the constitutional party. I also voted for the local leaders. We will see who wins.

Baptism Day

Sarah had a beautiful baptism day. We had a lot of family and friends come and celebrate with us. As she and Aaron were walking down the chapel in their white clothes I was overcome with emotion. Sarah beamed with happiness and Aaron looked just as happy. It was a glimpse of heaven.

Fun on Halloween!

The kids LOVED Halloween this year. We carved pumpkins, had a fun parade at school and then of course trick or treating with LOTS of candy :) Grandma and Grandpa were here and mom stayed here with me and passed out the candy where the kids went with Grandpa and Dad.

Delving into his candy. At one point he had 3 candies opened and in progress.



Grandpa as the cookie, Becca as te cookie monster, David as Buzz Lightyear, Dad as Woody and Sarah as a black cat (she drew the wiskers and nose by herself :)

The three cuties in their shirts we made at Sarah's party.

A blue cowgirl (with a soon to be tummy ache...she threw up that night...too much candy)

It's a....

GIRL! The doctor isn't 100% sure, because she had her legs crossed. It was fun for Aaron to see her kicking and yawning. The only news was she was measuring a little small which means they changed the date (AGAIN!) so now the section date will probably be the 5th of March. They want to make sure the baby's lungs are developed and not take her 2 weeks early. My fibroid was huge, but what is new.

Cute pictures

David was in the bath and I just couldn't resist.

Happy Birthday Sarah!

Today Sarah turned 8!!!


We had such a fabulous day!

She really wanted to have a campfire and roast marshmallows...so that is what we did. We started out here and made tie-dye shirts and then played a few group games. Then we all piled in our cars and went to the park. I couldn't have done it without my sister and cousin!!! We played at the park and in the creek and then roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. Then of course cake and ice cream. Now they are having a sleepover with their cousins...what a treat! She loved all her birthday gifts. Here are a few pictures from the party.

Down on the farm

Here are some pictures from the farm we went to on Monday. We went with some friends who used to live in PA...so fun!

Sarah catching a chicken. She and her friend would run and one would

grab the tail while the other snatched up the chicken.

Giddy up.

Cautiously petting the goat.
