My little baby!!

So about a month ago i convinced my hubby (who does not like dogs) to get a miniture dachsand(don't know how to spell). She is my little baby. Her name is Minnie mouse (because she is miniture and she is mostly black.) Dad says he doesn't like her but her really does. He even bought her a little dress for her to wear. The cat and dog get along really well and play fight all the time. The kids of course adore her as well. Any ways her is some pictures of her. (She is not dead in the last picture she is dead asleep)

Static Electricity

Lets just say don't we all just love Nevada's static electricity in the air? This is what happens when girl meets couch.

So then there was Halloween!! Kairi is a fairy princess ballarina girl. I made the tutu and the wings were from the dollar store. Got to love cheap costumes! Theron's costume was Mikes old costume that Bettye made for him. We made Theron wear as a surprise to Grandma Hull since she was in town visiting. McKenna wanted to be a bubble bath. So she is the cutest bubble bath we have ever seen. I went as a mummy. Once a mummy always a mummy. Mike went as a High School Counselor. (HeHeHeHe) He was walking around helping the kids.

Therons Birthday

We celebrated Theron's birthday on Halloween cause that was the only day that dad would be home. So obviously we had a spiderman birthday themed party. I made the cake and good news the kids recognized the character. We made a spiderweb with rope and we played "spiderman says..." Grandma and Grandpa Hull along with dad helped decorate and get ready for the party. Thanks!!

Pumpkin pictures

I know it is late!! So since i can blog i am trying to catch up. The monday before Halloween we TRIED to carve pumpkins for family home evening. McKenna refused to touch the pumpkins insides and therfore teaching the other 2 not to touch the slimy orange insides.

Painting our first wall

So here we are making our one of our first home improvments. All of our house is all painted a light cream color with a little darker doors and door frames. But we decided our bedroom (1st) needed some color. Mike had gotten some free paint from Glidden online so we decieded to run with it. I was really scared to paint that color cause it is sooooo dark but now i love it after 3 coats of paint on it. It is called cranberry zing. But we don't have a picture yet on our computer of the third coat. It was fun. Mike did most of the work (the 2nd and 3rd coats) The kids wanted to help but we didn't want to have "red" paint everywhere on our carpet. We did have a plastic sheet down but we didn't want to chance it. We were really carfull!!

Don't we all just love Fall. I always Fall for my kids. I love the smell of the leaves changing colors and the crispness in the air. Of course mike calls it dead rotting leaves. Either way I love it! The weather is perfect and i get to make PIES and pumpkin cookies!! I love it. Man I could list so much more. I love thanksgiving, school starting, birthdays seem to be plenty this time of year for my original family. I just really enjoy when there is change of seasons in the air!
