The proud artists!

Mr. Trouble

Brodie found the boys hair gel, and he was so proud of how nice his hair looked. He is into everything lately, we cannot leave him alone for too long, because silence always precedes a mess.

Miracles do happen...

Getting my boys together to have their picture taken is one of the most painful things about being a mother for me. I know that sounds dramatic, but I always see the cutest pictures taken of my friends children and of my nieces and nephews. However when the day comes my kids are cranky, they have runny noses, chapped lips, and in general just can't seem to look at the camera all at the same time. But I finally got my Christmas miracle, some really cut pictures of my boys, and it was only a little painful.

Happy Halloween!

Cyrus is a dead biker, Talen is the executioner, and Brodie of course is Yoda. We had a very nice and quiet Halloween, the weather was perfect, leaves changing colors, lots of peanut butter cups, and our best carved pumpkin ever! (Sorry no photo). It is good to be making memories in our new house.

The boys taught Brodie the trick-or-treat smell my feet song, it was pretty cute to hear him say it when we knocked on doors. He also posed for a few pictures, he was a big hit with the teenage girls!

Cyrus too cool for school...

Cyrus walks his last elementary school Halloween parade! Next year he will be in middle school and way too cool for a parade. I shed a few tears at that thought.
