Jacob had a ton of fun making up riddles in his 3rd grade class. We thought they were pretty great and Tyler thought I should post them on the blog, so enjoy!

He is my cousin
He is brown like chocolate
Who is he?

answer: Christian

2-He is a dog
His teeth shine in the sun
My cousin loves him
Who is it?

answer: Rusty

3-He is Big and Jolly
He laughs with a HO HO HO
He is busy like a bee
Who is he?

answer: Santa

4-She is sweet as Honey
She is nice like a flower
She is busy like a bee
Who is she?

answer: My mom
(I really like this one)

5-He is wearing my favorite color
He makes toys
He works with Santa
Who is it?

answer: Santa's elf

I am sure I am not quite as good at riddles as Jacob, but I have to give it a try so here it goes.

He is funny and can make everyone laugh
He is a great friend and kind to all
When I see his toothless smile, I smile too
Who is he?

answer: My very special Jacob!

Every mother needs a daughter and I am glad I was chosen to be her Mom. Madison is growing up to fast, she is becoming such a beautiful young lady. Here is a recent picture of her after getting her perm.

Halloween 2009, I'm just a tad slow!!!

Now that I have Christmas music playing I guess it's time to post our Halloween Pictures. About a week before Halloween we went to some of our friends house to carve pumpkins and had a great time. The night before Halloween someone decided to steal our carved pumpkins off our porch, not sure why. I thought we would find them smashed somewhere, but they were no where to be found. So.... Halloween afternoon we had to go buy more and carve them or I think Kaden would have not made it through the day. He was so looking forward to lighting his pumpkin with a candle. I was very grateful for the nice weather so we could carve outside.
2nd round of carving, probably good since I didn't have my camera the first time!

Mark's office has a great time dressing up each year for their patients. This year they decided to all be rock stars. Mark was very excited about his Michael Jackson costume. He looked great and I think had fun playing the part. He is pretty good at the moon walk.

Madison was Bat Girl, she looked great and it was something totally different for her. She had a great time trick or treating with her friends.
Jacob and Kaden were Mario and Luigi. They looked so cute. They had a fun time trick or treating with some of our neighborhood friends the Pugsleys. I went with them this year as it was a little warmer and I like to save the cold years for Mark.
