Happy Halloween!

October 31, 2022

It’s going to be a spook-tacular Monday! My crew got to go first found with costumes on Friday last week for Boo Bash at school. We had a very glamorous movie star…

The carpool area at school had been decorated in a Big Top Theme all week for HallowEEK and it was really unbelievable! I spent the majority of the weekend before helping to put it all together. So much creativity and talent went into this!

Amazing!! You can even click here to take a virtual drive through carpool to see it all lit up with the 6th graders dressed up! After school Thursday we turned the carpool drive through into Boo Bash with lots of fun games and rides and, of course, lots of candy! Full Boo Bash pics coming tomorrow!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

HallowEEK and pumpkin fun

October 28, 2022

The Halloween fun is in full swing over here! The kids have had HallowEEK at school all week with different dress up themes each day. Samantha got dressed for neon day but didn’t make it to school – strep struck…

The boys had on some neon…no Maxwell pic. I was dealing with Bible Club and pitiful Samantha and never even saw him that morning!

I got some crowns for the boys to wear. Spencer posed for a pic but his crown didn’t make it to school. Maxwell actually took one to school but I never got a pic. Oh well!

Samantha and Maxwell also made pumpkins for the contest at school and at Robert’s work. Maxwell worked so hard on his Darth Maul pumpkin…

Spooky and awesome!! and Samantha and I worked together to make this happy hula girl!

Amazing! We were particularly proud of the arms we made!

She entered hers at school and didn’t win. She was robbed but that’s ok. Maybe she and Maxwell will both take home the prize at Robert’s office!

Now we’re ready for Boo Bash at school today! Lots and lots of Halloween fun!!

Easter

April 19, 2022

We woke up bright and early Easter morning and were happy to see that the bunny had brought some treats!

The bunny also hid our eggs in the wrong yard! Oops! Sometimes the bunny outsources and, well, good help is hard to find.

We then got all dressed up and managed to get a few pictures in before it started raining. It was a misty, yuck morning but at least it wasn’t pouring rain…yet!

Samantha wore one of my old dresses like last Easter. This bluebird dress was smocked and sewed by GJ and Susu and it makes me so happy to see her in it! I need to find a picture of me in it!

We went to the new church we’ve been visiting and it was a really nice Easter service.

As soon as we got out of church we hit the road to Montgomery…in the pouring rain! The kids also realized they had forgotten to stick in their iPads so had to try and entertain themselves on the drive with no electronics!! How in the world did they survive?!

Turns out, they survived just fine! They actually talked to each other and had fun together! Imagine that?!

We met Lou Lou, Grandaddy, Jenny, Ronnie, Katie and Anna at the country club for an Easter feast and then some visiting back at the house.

That evening we were lucky to have a break in the rain just long enough to have our neighborhood party and egg hunt! I think we had a record number of kids and plenty of fun! Love this tradition.

It was a wonderful Easter from morning to night despite the weather!
