Wise Gal???

Actually I'm not sure if MyScene Barbie arrived with the Wise Men or the Shepards, I better go check the scriptures again to make sure.

GO Koala's

We had a very busy week at Lynlee's school, first it was Open House, and I can remember how exciting it was to show my mom and dad my desk and all my art work and Lynlee was the same way. They are the Kilpatrick Koalas and I think she did a pretty good job with her koala. That one is refrigerator keeper!

Always into something!!

Next she had a Thanksgiving Party and Regan had to be right in the middle of all of it, luckily Lynlee is a great big sis and is more than happy to have her around and share.

Lynlee is loving Kindergarten and learning so much, we are so proud of her!

Sleeping Beauties

Sunday naps are the Best!!

Fall Flowers

Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner, and down here in Texas its still in the high 70s low 80s and we are in shorts! So we decided to add a little color to the boring landscape they gave up and plant some fall flowers. I love pansy's but have never planted, because it always gets too cold too fast in Utah. Lynlee did most of the work and when my knees and back were both about to break, Billy came to the rescue to finish the last little planter.

This is what I found when I told Lynlee to go get the hose to give the flowers a drink, she was completely soaked and filling her shoe up with water.

50's Day

I've been running for mom of the year now for awhile, so when a note from school came home on Monday, stating tomorrow, Tuesday was the 50th day of school and all the kids were going to dress in 50's style, what do I do? Well, load up the kiddos and head to JoAnns fabric of course. Luckily I found an old Halloween skirt, I just had to hem a little to fit Lynlee, but we needed a poodle and squence leash to complete the outfit. There were three other moms runnung for mom of the year, buying stuff to make poodle skirts but I beat them all out, while they were waiting to get there fabric cut I grabbed the last poodle patch!!! While having to pull a costume out of nowhere is a huge hassel, Lynlee looked so adorable, and when she came home from school, declaring her teacher, Mrs. O'Neil told her she looked "Precious," makes it all worth it in the end.

Bubbles

Driving to a Halloween party, Billy calls me on the phone because he is meeting us there, while talking to him Regan yells "I want talk papa."

I tell Billy Regan wants to talk and hand her the phone, she say's "hi papa."

Me-"It's not papa(Grandpa or Grandma) it's daddy"

Lynlee from the back sit-"mom some people call their dad's papa"

Me-"yes some people do"

Lynlee-"I think we should start calling our dad BUBBLES"

Me (after cracking up laughing for a few minutes) OKAY!!"

I don't know where they come up with some of these things but my kids our so funny, they make my laugh everyday. Lynlee is just full of personality, I love them to death. I just had to write this one down before I forget.

Oh and spread the word, call Billy Bubbles!!

Spookables

Halloween is one of my favorite time of years, and even though I'm totally missing a Utah fall with the cooler weather and leaves changing, it was fun to dress up and not have to worry about freezing to death. Or wearing your snow coat over your costume!! Lynlee finally decided on a "nice witch" after changing her mind ten times. I was able to seal the deal when I told her she could paint her fingernails black and wear black lipstick.
Regan was the cutest Dora the Explorer ever!! And the costume wouldn't have been complete without "Backpack", surprisingly she wore the entire time. Now to conquer all that candy they got, we went to two trunk-or-treats and trick -or-treating, Billy and I have made a pretty good dent in it, but now there is just the crappy candy left for the kids like Smarty's. We are such nice parents!!
