A SUPER BUSY WEEK!

Our sweet friends next door, had their daughter get married this last week.
All three of the kids were in her wedding party. Kamarin looked beautiful & Parker & Everett very dapper! Here are a few pix of them all dressed up!

A STAR IS BORN!

Kamarin was recently in a production put on by her Drama class. This was one of my favorite scenes...she has such a flare for the dramatic. Grandma Weeks...this one's for you! It's in her blood!

TO SCAREY FOR ME!!

SPOOKY COSTUMES!!

If I revisit the Halloweens past, I am able to count back 3 years of Everett being a skeleton. So, it was no surprise when a skeleton was his costume of choice againn this year. He added a slight twist, by calling himself a "skeleton warrior". (He still wore the same costume though!) Parker waited until the day before, to decide what to be...hence, my scramble the day of to create his mummy attire. Thank goodness he was pleased with the results. Kamarin was at Patrick's this year & she also made a last minute decision...but came up with a stunning bat girl costume. We joined our friends in the yearly trek around the block, returning home with heavy bags, full of treats.

CARVING PUMPKINS

Each Halloween we carve pumpkins as a family. This year, the two older kids, needed very little help. Everett still refuses to touch the "pumpkin guts"! Kamarin created the spider, Parker the flame creature, & Everett supervised, while I carved his skeleton. Branden carefully cut out Parker's stencil with an XACTO knife, & then Parker did the rest. I put down a huge plastic table cloth, but we still managed to make the biggest mess!!
