Game Room

Remember the cereal problem? Well we fixed it by building shelves in the Game Room. Then we decided to add a dvd/cd shelf. Then we decided to paint it. AND we decided to do all of this a week before Thanksgiving. I'm not sure the carpets were even dry that day :) The kids explained what the "hawt mess" meant, but I can't remember. Justin did quite a bit of the painting, but we all pitched in.

We put a long table and a desk under the shelves for the kids computers. To the left of the window is where the tv goes with the Wii.

This is usually where we find Alex sitting at his computer.


And the dvd/cd shelf that holds all the games, movies and cds that we own. Believe it or not, I'm the happiest with this because we had things every where. We didn't have anything big enough to hold it all. Kind of amazing how things build up over the years.

Renaissance Fair

In November we went to the Renaissance Fair. We had gone there 6 years ago and we've been trying to get back since. The kids loved it, both times.

My babies are growing up . . .

Had to try the Turkey legs . . . it will be the last time I have one. Funny how much tastier they are when you are younger.

Cereal

You may remember my facebook post about all the cereal. Here is the pic. This was in my living room for a while because I had no place to put it.

11 years old

Um, yeah it has been awhile since I posted. I'm sorting through my pictures today and thought I'd share some. Rebekah turned 11 in October. Next year, all of my children will be out of Primary. They grow up so fast!! While your changing diapers endlessly it sure doesn't feel like it, but then all of the sudden you are looking back on all of that with fond memories!!!

I realized this year for the first time, I'm a bit slow, that for several years now she has had a Halloween themed cake. So in keeping with that theme I bought the Halloween cupcakes. They were a hit.

We went to Belton Lake yesterday. I forgot my camera but I was able to use my nieces. Last activity of the summer. School starts on Monday, the 23rd.




That is Rebekah in the sand. Hannah, Amber and Haley buried her. I think they bury her every time they are near sand :)

She lives!

This didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it, but it still turned out pretty good.
