National Adoption Month

It is national adoption month, and one of the most amazing peeps I know is Sara she has had to go through so much. But in the end she has gotten the cutest little girl. If you ever get a chance you need to check out her blog. Read her story. There are so many people out there that are wanting to adopt. I think she wants more too if you know of anyone who is in a situation of considering adoption.

Army

My brother Cole decided to join the army and become a medic. We are all pretty sad about it. It wasn't something that my family really wanted but he had already signed up so there wasn't much we could do about it. He is in Fort Knox Kentucky right now. He was supposed to go to South Carolina and they told him about ten minutes before his flight that he was going to Kentucky instead. I guess when you sign that contract they own you. We have gotten one phone call from him it was about 10 seconds long and he told us he is some what safe. None of us talked to him so we didn't get to ask him what that means. He just left a message on the phone. He'll be in Kentucky for basic until the end of January and then he'll go off to medic training in Texas. We love him and wish him the best.

Halloween 2009

We had such a great Halloween this year. I was Captain Hook, Karly was Tinkerbell, and Noah was Peter pan. I tried to get Jared to be Wendy but he wouldn't :(. The kiddos with all of their cousins.
Sophia and Karly two fairies.


Ghost on a stick. My mom read a poem to all the kids and they had to pull their ghost out every time it said ghost before the pan lid hit their ghost.

As you can see Noah didn't like the game very much.

Then my mom played a game where she passed around gross things and everyone had to feel them. Example Eyes were grapes that were peeled.
One tired Fairy.

Noah went trick or treating for the first time and LOVED it. It was a great holiday for all of us. I'm eating a piece right now.
