Mommy and Olivetta!
One cool dude.........
and a few silly kids! One night when daddy was out of town, we found ourselves looking for some entertainment! The kids came out dressed like this! The wanted to see who looked the silliest! They both look pretty goofy to me!
The other night I couldn't find Lex and this is where I found him..... on the couch reading his scriptures! What a good boy! He is so cute and has really taken a liken to reading the scriptures! It all started last week when we had our Primary Program. After church I couldn't find him anywhere! I finally looked in the car and I found him in the back seat reading his scriptures. His part in the program was in 2 Nephi and that is where he decided to start reading, it really sparked his interest! I told him what I was reading about in the scriptures (1 Nephi.. trying to get him to start from the beginning) and he said "Well, you should hear what I'm reading about! That's where you should be reading!" When Paul came home from being gone all week the first thing he said was "Daddy, Daddy!! I read my scriptures all by myself and nobody told me to! And I was reading about when Christ comes and about all the wicked people and the buildings will fall upon them and earthquakes! It was so cool!" He was so excited and so interested, it was really great to see him so excited about reading the scriptures! He is SUCH a great kid! Man, we love our little Dude~!
Olive hates HATES to wear bibs! This one has a button so she can't slide it over her head. I was talking to Paul on the phone and came in the room and this is what she looked like. She thought it was so funny! I would pull it down and she would pull it back up and just stared at me......
Paul was out of town again last week for almost the whole week and the kids had Monday and Tuesday off so I let them turn the TV room into one GIANT tent!! Literally..... the entire room!
We love having a fireplace! Ok, you're right. It isn't cold enough for a fire here, yet! But they just couldn't resist it any longer! We had all the windows open and fans blowing everywhere! It was fun and isn't this picture adorable!
The kids love to sleep in my bed when Paul is out of town. I went in to check on them and this is what I found..... Indie had fallen of my bed onto Tadhg and they were inner twined!! It was so funny!
Olive was on my lap and I was taking pictures of Daddy and Lex and then showing her them on the viewer. She thought it was amazing! Or maybe just amazed that her daddy and brother could look so silly!
This is what happened one day about 30 minutes before I had to go pick up the kids from school. This is in Lex's and Tadhg's room and if you know Lex then you know how anal he can be about his room and how everything has to be exactly how he places it or he just might have a melt down!! Well, he obviousely put a few too many books on this wire shelves!! Long story short it turned out OK and Lex did a good job NOT freaking out...... though I did have most of it cleaned up by the time he came home.
Olive is quite a strong little munchkin!! She loves packing around Indie's pumkin!!
This pictures below are sadly NOT of Halloween..... just life with a big sister who loves to play dress-up! Tadhg is really going to hate me when he is older, isn't he??
Isn't this a cute picture!! We love when daddy comes home to eat lunch with us!!
Daddy and his girls!
Tadhg the vampire! Almost every time he would get a piece of candy he would sit down to eat it! We had to put a stop to that real quick!
Lex ended up not wearing his scary blood dripping mask that he just HAD to have!!! Oh well, it was pretty scary!
Indie's outfit was SO ADORABLE!!! I got it off ebay and it's from The Children's Place. It was so cute and it was just her style!! Below is a picture of the back of it..... that and her striking a pose!
Olive wore the Tinkerbell dress Naunie made for her cousin Sophie!! Thanks for sharing Sopherdoodle!!
For our ward Trunk or Treat we, the primary presidency, dressed up as Gypsies!! It was really fun!! And not to far from my normal dress!!
We went Trick or Treating around to some awesome houses!! People really went all out around here! There were people hiding behind bushes.... scared the crap out of Indie!! Real people putting dirt on a scary skeleton (looked like grave diggers), a box with a guy inside and the kids had to reach there hand inside for a piece of candy and if they chose the wrong one they go slimmed! And I had to at least share this photo of this Skeleton on a motorcycle!! It was so much fun!!! We hope everyone had as much fun as we did!!
