Fall 2014

Fall is really my favorite time of year.

I just have to go back & post a little about last year... before...

it comes again!

During October we made cookies-

and watched the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.

Hailey turned 21- she loves all things chicken- and got this funny chicken plate.
Isn't she just the cutest!?

and Charlie turned 5.

He wanted pirate dress up clothes for his birthday.

look at this cute little pirate!

I can't resist posting this picture of Peter.

He is such a sweet baby. 

Lucky me- I made it to Charlie's Preschool Halloween Parade.

LOVED IT

AND- Trent is big enough now to carve his own pumpkins- so fun.

On Halloween night a cowboy Johnny & chocolate covered 50's style Claire dropped in.

The Swat Team took care of a little pumpkin & went trick or treating in their own neighborhood.

Buzz & Woody had the best time- but by the time I took this photo- they were done.

I am still teaching cooking classes for kids at home & at work downtown.

we had a little Halloween lunch party.

As much as I hate summer to come to an end- 

Fall 2015 is just around the corner.

Brian & Jack took the twins & Trent fishing- brave or stupid?

Chloe made a drastic change & got a pixie cut!

She donated 15 inches to Locks of Love

She LOVES it & so do we!

June has been a good month~

and then they turned one

Can You Believe It?

February 15- the twins turned

ONE

What a huge blessing these little boys are in our lives.

It's absolutely amazing.

I never even thought/considered any of my grandchildren would be twins?

It just never crossed my mind- and

WOW

Twins have been so great & so unusual for our family & so fun.

Can you tell, I am not the one who carried, delivered, or got up all night with them?

Per Brian's request the boys had a 

Cowboy Birthday party

Twins- brought to you by Brian & Laura

I made these Cowboy cupcakes.

There are no cowboy cupcake picks out there- so I just made these up after finding the images on free google images. fewww! Everything for boys these days are super hero.

I even found this little red head cowboy!

Laura's brother & sister made these FANTASTIC DECORATIONS!

It's a little western store front scene.

The cousins, Ruby, Charlie & Joey had so much fun.

Trent was thrilled with the IBC Root beer.

A sandwich buffet

 Then they opened presents!

The cousins were so much help getting the presents opened.

We sang a big Happy Birthday to you!

and had cupcakes
