Crazy hair day

It was crazy hair day today at school so Andrew went with a red mohawk. Hopefully that is the only time that I'll ever see my child with a mohawk. :)

CRUISING!

Chris and I just returned from a Caribbean cruise with his sister and brother and their spouses. It was so much fun. The islands were beautiful, it was warm, and we had such a fun time as adults. I couldn't believe how blue the water was-it was turquoise and the sand was white. It really was a dream vacation. My mom came to watch all of our kids and barely survived. She returned home today and hopefully will get a much needed rest!

Pumpkin shirts

We made pumpkin shirts for everyone and the kids have been wearing them non-stop. We are ready for Halloween!

beautiful fall colors!

Brothers

Carter, Andrew, and Grant decided to play a new game. It's called "put-the-box-on-my-head-and-try-to-knock-me-down". It's a wonderfully testosterone filled game where they knocked the daylights out of eachother. Surprisingly, no one cried the entire time. I took this at the end of the game, and they all look in tact.

A Girl!

I was so excited when Hailey was born, because I could finally dress a girl. However, she gained an opinion all too quickly. She will not wear dresses or skirts unless it is Sunday. Randomly last week, she decided that she was going to dress up for school. WOW! I was so excited. Isn't she cute?

Thanks Cory!

Thanks to my sister for forcing me to start blogging. I have been extremely hesitant to start due to my lack of creativity and time. We'll see how this goes.
