YAHOO!! FHE!!

It's that same Family Home Evening we have every year to try and carve pumpkins into somthing recognizable!! The patterns get harder and harder every year. This was Jenna's first time with her own and I think she was still a little to young to fully enjoy the experience.....she had more fun feeding daddy ice cream while he worked on Justin's. Justin was showing daddy his plate full of seeds and shoved it right in his face! YOU GO J! Ashley was discusted by the slimy texture but was a trooper. We didn't get the pumpkins completely carved since it was a school night and getting late, but will post the prize winning pumpkins another night! I love this time of year!!

ALA FUTBOL!!!

Saturday was Justin's first Soccer game. He is #12. It was like 800 degrees outside in the middle of October!! We couldn't even sit in the sun so we backed the Hummer up and sat in the back with it open and watched. He played Defense this time and loves it. Isn't he getting so big?? They are so cute to watch. They are afraid to kick each other, KNOWING they all have pads on. Shoot, I think I need to join a soccer league so I can kick someone LEGALLY!! You'd think the kids would love it! The end result....Cougars (his team) 0 - Other team 4. Maybe Justin should try Goalie next time.

GO AARON.....IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!

ITS PARTY TIME!!! We had a great time suprizing Aaron with a Birthday party to celebratehis 22nd birthday since it is such a significant year!?? His new wife crowned him King and his Father knighted "Aaron the Younger" into his complete manhood of responsibility. It was very cute and funny and one heck of a party probably none of us will forget...right mom? hehe We got completely smashed and wasted off cake and ice cream to prepare us for the KARAOKE that later took place. Some of us needed the buzz to sing and the rest of us needed it to tolorate the sing-ing! All in all, only 2 scorpions were found inside, only one person threw up, and only a few dorito fingerprints were found on my new Theater chairs....which equals....a dang successful party!! (i had to throw in a pic of Aspen at the party too! She was chillin')

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PEEPS!!

The only thing happenin' around here lately is friends, friends, and more friends over! Which means...triple the lunch preparation and triple the messes! LOL! Actually, I love it when the kids have their posse over. However, poor Justin is grounded from friends for a month for getting excessive chatting in the classroom for 4 weeks! Who the heck does he get that from??? (before anyone goes and feels sorry for him, just know HE chose his OWN punishment.) Aspen doesn't have any friends and was having a moment here. I just kiss her like crazy when she cries.....it's just so cute!!

Oh, What a Beautiful Morning......

It was such a beautiful day outside we actually opened all the doors and windows for the first time! I think fall might be coming finally. Here is a picture of our new house. We love everything about it except the scorpions we find. I killed another one today. AHHH!! I hate them!! I love that every house in this neighborhood is on a culdesac(spelling??) though. I decided it didn't matter what the kidos looked like today, they could play out in the front yard. It was Aspen's first experience in her stroller and the girls were thrilled they got to push her around. She fell asleep in her stroller just about the time the sprinklers turned on and Jenna and Justin got caught in them and decided it wasn't such a bad thing. We had a great day enjoying the weather and each other.

JUST WANT TO EAT HER UP!!

ISNT SHE SO STINKIN CUTE??? Ok, so I am her mother, but I can't help it! She is so alert and strong for such a tiny peanut! Unfortunately she has a milk allergy and preferes Soy formula! So, she is kinda a smelly baby.....hehe. But look at that face....that's an Angel who's recently touched the face of God. What a sweetheart.

WHAT THE??? WHERE'D THE???

What the HECK?? Where'd the time go?? SOOOO much has happened since the last posting I don't even know where to start!! I will just skip to the BEST part!! We moved the first of September and 9 days later our little Angel was born. Sweet Aspen Rae came into this world Sept 9th at a tiny 6lb 4oz. By far the most emotional bonding birth experience for Tony and I. What a gift from Heaven Aspen is. She will complete our family of 6 and we are so thankful to Heavenly Father for sending her to us. WHAAAA!! My keyboard is soaking wet...... now, the reason these pictures are kinda funky looking is our battery charger for our camera is missing and these were all taken with my camera phone. I am excited to be getting settled in and I feel better than ever. I forget what it's like every time to have my own body back functioning normal!! Thank you to everyone who came to visit me in the hospital. It always means so much to me and it was a little emotional knowing that was the last time I would be leaving with a new baby. Aspen is changing almost daily. Isn't she so beautiful???

WHERE'S ELLA???

Are any of you wondering what happened to Ella? Apparently she was quite enchanted and grew little boy kitty parts because we looked one day and whalla...."Sheena was a man" as Tone Loc puts it. Nonetheless, male or female, we had to get rid of the sweet thing due to allergies that Daddy could not kick. That's ok. She/He was secretly wanting a new family anyway due to the whole embarrasing gender confusion. He needed a new start. Although we (just Jenna really) miss the kitty, we wish the little Fella (instead of Ella) well with his new family.
