I think I can officially say it!!!

Ty is potty trained!!!

He has RARELY (like once) had an accident and that was when he was sick. I still put diapers on him in the night because Im still paranoid he will ruin my nights sleep with an accident but he wakes up dry!

It is so so nice to have only ONE in diapers!!!

GOOD JOB TY!!!

Happy Thanksgiving...

Anyone for buffalo steaks??

Scott and his dad went buffalo hunting this weekend. And as you can see, it wasnt just them that went...they had a whole HERD with them. They have been planning this hunt for many many many moons!! And finally the day came!! I love the picture up top cause you can see just how excited Scott was. LOL

I will now be eating buffalo for a long long long time!! And if anyone has themselves a buffalo craving...please, come over. I'll have some to spare.

Remember I said I had cool Sister in Laws?

Well Im sayin' it again.

I have cool sister in laws.

Jentry and I both read all of the Twilight Books. She loooved them. I liked them. Ok, so I loved a few of them. The last one not as much...but still good.

Well of course, we have been waiting for the Twilight movie to come out. It comes out this Friday. We are all going to get together and have a girls night and go see Twilight.

Today Jentry came home from school with this.



Bethany had taken an invitation and flower to her school to invite her to Friday Night. I thought that was so nice of her. Jentry was so excited. Thanks Bethany!!!

Today I was doing Brinleys hair for school and she was looking at her outstretched hand.
I hear her say "I have a lot of stretch marks!"
I said, "You do? Do you even know what stretch marks are?"
To which she replied "Yeah! They are these blue lines in your hands!!"

Tonight I was helping her with her homework and I numbered her page for her. I put:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

But I did my two the other way, with a hump.
She looked at it and said, "You really need to practice your two's!!"

Thanks Brinley.

Halloween 2008

The kids have a parade at school every year. So I took the boys down to see it. I also took the boys down that I babysat. So that was a whole load of boys to load and unload out of the car, but we made it. I can never get good pics in the school...so this is what I got.




This is the first year that Jentry has actually stopped and posed for a pic. She is usually too embarassed. Maybe Im getting cooler!!!

Then we came home, ate lunch, and Amys boys went home. My parents came over and the girls got home from school. They were ready to go T or Ting right then. So was Grandma. We had to wait a few hours and I told them once they saw other kids out trick or treating we could go. Sure enuff at around five we saw one other little group. The kids and grandma were ready to go! But first we had to get a picture of all of them together. I told them to look at me and Ty told Shaylee to look up...so this is what we got.



And then they were off!!!




(as you can see, Grandma is in the lead)

Me and mom took them up and down our street and then let Jentry and Brinley break off. We were holding them up. When we got back home Grandpa and Scott were ready to take them down the next street.


Mom and I sat on the poarch and handed out candy (ok, fruit snacks) Mom was so excited she'd run to the sidewalk to give it to the kids. I told the parents we were a drive thru service. No need to stop, just keep going.

I cant believe how nice the weather was!!! Usually the kids are ice cold when they get home and we end up with stuffy noses. But not this year. And because of daylight savings, it was light the whole time they were trick or treating. SO NICE!!!

Then we went to dinner at Sizzler and went and visited my grandma and grandpa Scott. We had a great night! Thanks mom and dad for coming and going trick or treating with us!!!
