*Quick Overview*

I've been so behind on my family blogging-

Once December gets here it should hopefully

slow down around here :) (well of course with the

exception of Christmas shopping but bring that on!!!)

Anywho, it was my Dads b-day in October-

He is quite an awesome man

Patient, kind, generous are just a few of many qualities

that my Dad has-

Growing up it seemed that his birthday would last the whole

month through but now that he shares it with grandkids

(which he is more that happy with ;)

its double the excitement

Thanks Dad for all you do

We love you !

And now onto the crazy Halloween party that we have
every year!!! I can not tell you how creative my fam. is-
they come up with the crayziest, funniest, cutest costumes I know-
Every year is a surprise--- We have the traditional chili for the main
course and then everyone brings something to share. Then we have a
white elephant game (which use to consist of my own random food storage items)
but this year we had everyone bring one funny, and one nice to share--
Between hangers, TMNT movie, fish sculptures, and other random goodness
it was quite a fun game.
thanks to all our fam.-- it would not be the same without ya!!
Until next year-

(costumes-- my fam. Nick was a pirate, I was pirate booty (stuffed my bottom), Bailey was a witch, Owen was a super hero pirate (his idea :)
