Pumpkin Painting!

A fun afternoon of pumpkin painting. Today was stake conference, but we didnt have the gas money to get to nauvoo, so we spent the day as a family. We painted the pumpkins we got on saturday from the pumpkin patch. Being the cool fun mom that I am ( wink wink) we had lots of paint, glue, glitter, pompoms, and sequins. What a fun mess we made!!! They turned out pretty darn great!

We've caught you blue handed Roxie!

We found out that our dog Roxie likes to color with blue spiderman markers. Here's PROOF.

Great Grandma Betty

This is Dylan, Sydney and their Great Grandma Betty Kaylor. We had a nice visit with her today! It was beautiful outside and the kids ran around and climbed the trees and had a great time!

Lincoln Douglas Debate in Quincy

We have been studying up on Abe Lincoln and today we went to the Fair on the Square !! It was awesome!! Dylan even had his picture taken with abe lincoln himself! He told Dylan to keep reading and that everything he needed to know could be found in books! LOL. It was fun! Here are some pics.

My sis is there too, so there will be one adult per child ROFL. And the best part is................................Keith and I will be alone for the whole night for the first time in over 3 years. Yup. I said it. 3 years. Before that it was like well, i guess when i had sydney, lol, which wasnt really romantic because i had just given birth LOL. And technically, sydney was there. and we were in a hospital. Anywho, we are going to have a date night!!!! Im soooo excited. They are supposed to come get the kids between 6:30- 7ish and then we are free until tomorrow morning!!!!!! Im totally excited. I cant even begin to say how excited i am and the kids are totally excited too!!

And we will only be five minutes away, but still it will be ALONE TIME. Momma needs alone time. LOL
