Annual Pumpkin Carving

So Brian and I always have this great idea to get the kids pumpkins and we will have some good ole family fun.......NOT.....There is nothing more scary on Halloween then giving 5 kids a knife and they start cutting and swinging them around!! It usually starts someone fighting and Dad (Brian) finishing all the cutting of the pumpkins. Honestly....the kids were very good this year. They all designed their own and only Ben and Gabe needed help with cutting. Ali did bring it to our attention that this will be her last year......next year she will be at college (Now that's scary!!!)

Do you like the photo of the newest member....this poor dog does not know what he's gotten into!!

Halloween Parade

Abby and Beau were in the Halloween Parade on Sunday, Oct. 28. They were both in the band (Abby...High school and Beau...Jr. High). It was a beautiful day for a parade.

We have a New Member of Our Family!!

Our family got a new addition yesterday.......HUGO. He is about 1 year old. He has alot of energy and the previous owners were not able to give him the attention he needed since they worked different shifts so I don't think that will be a problem here!! The kids love him (well maybe not Ali, since he came after her and she had to run and hide!).
