This is Shacee's first day. She was so excited and ready to start school. She didn't actually start until November because i was to cheap to pay for it and i couldn't take her and pick her up without waking Taylin up during her naps. But i have some great friends that i am now carpooling with and decided it was worth the money. She is loving every bit of it :)
Chad and i signed up to hold signs on the road for Prop 102 on marriage. It was crazy! i always thought people were wierd for standing on the streets holding signs but after doing it myself i have a new outlook on it. It was actually alot of fun and i could have stood out there all day if i didn't need to get back home to my kids. We got alot of good response and some bad of course but the more the people would give me a thumbs down, flip me off, or cuss the more i would smile, give them a thumbs up, and wave :). We had a great time and i would do it in a heartbeat again anytime. Its worth the honking, smiles, and thumbs up right back at me. We even had a lesbian couple standing next to us for awhile going against us. Kind of funny! These are pictures of Chad and i, my mom, and Mike and Janae holding signs.
This year we walked down main st. in Clarkdale to do some trick or treating then headed to the church for the annual trunk or treat. The kids had a great time and brought home way to much candy!
At school Madi and Sadie walked in the school parade. They start in the kindergarden class then continue on until they have gone through every class at school so everyone can see everyones costumes.
Halloween Day Madi and Sadie wore there costumes to school and Chad was brave and wore his to work. it was pretty funny!!! Madi is Miss Behaved Child and Sadie is Dorothy.
Every year for family night we get to carve a pumpkin for Halloween. Having all girls they get pretty disgusted with cleaning out the inside but they managed and the pumpkin turned out great!
We finally made the decision to have tubes put in her ears after all of her constant ear infections and antibiotics. So far so good! She did great with a little bribe of candy before she went in. It was hard to let her go with the doctors and not be with her. She made it though and it was actually alot easier of a process than i thought thank goodness!
It was so funny that we had all these costumes together at the party. They were all looking really good. Mike as McCain, Janae as Paylin, Brett and CJ as Obama Devils, and Handsome Chad as Joe the Plumber.
October 18 Chad and i went to a Halloween party. i was Pippi Longstocking and Chad was a plumber which turned out to be pretty fun after the debate thing that was all about Joe the Plumber. So thats what we decided to call him. We took our kids over to Bob and Judy's for a sleep over and headed to the party.
