Spiderman

So Halloween is Cassidy's favorite holiday, she asks us at least once a day what we are going to be for Halloween, when I say every day I mean every single day of the year. This year has been so exciting for Caleb because he's caught some of Cassidy's "Halloween Spirit" and has also been asking everyone what they are going to be for Halloween. So since Uncle Cody is going to be out of town on Halloween he decided it would be neat to come in his costume and surprise the kids with a Halloween treat, this is what happened:

Happy Halloween.....eh......Christmas?

We were surprised this morning to find that we had about 4 inches of snow on the ground when we woke up. I can't believe that its already snowed, aren't the leaves supposed to fall off the trees first? In any case the kids love it. If we let her, Cassidy would spend the whole day outside playing (and eating) the snow.

Jason vs. Garage Door

Okay this is our exciting weekend adventure; it all started on Thursday when Bridget couldn't get the garage door down so I decided to see what the heck was going on. Low and behold one of the runners had worn out to the point that it had slipped into one of the holes on the track. So I decided I'd pound it with a hammer for bit but it still didn't come loose. So I decided that I would loosen the bracket the wheel was attached to and see if it would come free that way. I thought that I had it loose enough so that we could at least lift the door and pull the cars in for the night, so I had my aunt Heather hit the switch and sure enough the door started to go up but the roller was still jammed in the track which created a whole lot of tension on the cable and after enough tension was built up the roller finally gave way and my face happened to be in the way as it came loose. As luck would have it the roller missed my eye but broke my nose and gave me some good lacerations on my nose and eye lid. Bridget was such a trooper in keeping me calm at the hospital I would have probably been freaking out a lot more than I did if she wasn't their to help. Thanks Honey! Lesson Learned: Always ask for help when it comes to garage doors and if you ever need to go to the ER call Bridget, she'll get you there in a jiffy.

Rules: Link the Person who Tagged you. Mention rules on your blog. Tell about 6 quirks of yours. Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same.Leave a comment to let them know.
1. I sing the wrong lyrics to songs. Jason is always telling me the right ones but it usually doesn't help. Hey I like to sing along but don't know all the words.
2. I fidget a lot out of habit. I am always wriggling my foot or twitting my thumbs.
3. I forget other peoples children at school hopefully this is a one time quirk.
4. If I'm really tired I will fall asleep in mid-sentence even if I'm sitting up talking to you, my sisters and Jase make fun of me for it all the time.
5. I tend to leave my yogurt caps on the counter with the good intention of turning it into the Breast Cancer Awareness program but they end up staying there weeks on end until Jason gets fed up with the clutter and throws them away.
6. I like to go to sleep first. So if I have an assignment that runs late into the night, Jason has to stay up with me until it is finished. I'm so mean.

I tag: Amber B., Tiffany, Alisha, Adri, and two more.

Our abrupt awakening.

So this morning at 7:00 we were laying in bed and Caleb starts screaming hysterically, so Bridget got up to see what the deal was then she started screaming hysterically at me to get up and call Poison Control. So I asked her what had happened and evidently Caleb had gotten into some topical anti-fungal medicine and had it in his eyes. So I am frantically looking for the number for poison control on the fridge and couldn't find it so I end up calling work to get it from the pharmacy; thankfully he was alright, Bridget flushed his eyes out and everything turned out alright.

I Finially figured out my Password!! Catch-up

Here are a few pictures that Cassidy took all by herself and one of her all in pink, she dresses herself and changes several times a day - that's probably why I have so much laundry. I was so impressed with how well she did with the camera now she will just take the camera and I will find random picture - she needs her own camera.




So I have had this blog for a while now but because of some confusion in setting it up I forgot my g-mail account and my password. So it has taken me Forever to start this blog and who knows what will happen next. I will try to be good. So a lot of stuff has been going on including Super Saturday, Cassidy starting school again, Jason and me starting school and all the small things in between that I don't remember. Having super Saturday over is such a relief Jason refers to it as Stupid Saturday because I am always doing things at the last minute and expecting a miracle out of him in the end. I still have loads of homework to catch up on and laundry : D (that's suppose to be a big fat tongue.) I wanted to catch up with my summer because it seemed to just fly by, so I will be quick. We had lots of visitors. Jason went to school this summer. My parents came the end of July then my sister Glenda came with her two girls the first part of August and Joshua my nephew came around the same time. It was a lot of fun having so much family around; one of the highlights was my dad, my brother Nathan, and Joshua speed walk racing down some street in Orem. I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants - which is common. Nathan won!! But I think he thought he was having a heart attack afterward. We also got to go to the Zoo and everyone was so helpful with my kids. We saw a snake eat a rabbit which was pretty interesting and the bird show was way cool. I have gone to the zoo several times but have never seen the bird show it was totally worth it. Here is a few pictures at the Zoo. It was hard to separate Cassidy and Josh, it was like they were attached at the hip. In the picture below you can see that Cassidy's giving Lilly the "evil eye" for stealing Josh away from her.
