Happy Halloween!

Well the feet are aching, and the kids are down from the sugar high...Halloween must be over! 

Here are some photos of the evening! 


The Dragon out for a wagon ride and Trick or Treating.

Momma and her Dragon

Adorable...that is all I have to say

The group!
Megan was a huge hit as Princess Fiona, she is too adorable.


I have to say I love the kiddos in my life. They all had a lot of fun, Megan was so cute and excited about being all green and having James as her dragon. It was great to trick or treat in a neighborhood where I recognize kids and Moms from school! I love small towns! 

Good night everyone!

Pumpkin Patch

Our first trip to the pumpkin patch as a family of four!

This is a bit late but I have a good excuse...well not really that great...it doesn't take long to post some super cute kid pictures...so here we go. 
First the back story...we have been attemping to hit the good ole pumpkin patch for a few weeks but between the husbands schedule, the baby nap times (we like to have those) and the rain something has stomped on our plans until this past Monday...off we went...after the dentist...and visiting Great Grandma (why didn't I take pictures...errr)...then off we went! 


This one is cool!

James are you sure you want THAT one?

4 Pumpkins + 1 baby boy...lets check out!

The happy pumpkin owning family

Ahhh Dad!

The sun is almost in my eyes Mom

I love sister in action on the jump thingy while James goes into orbit.
Not a complete trip without the Pumpkin Sling Shot!




Ok I HAVE to sleep now!

Pretty Blog

I would benefit from a button that beautifies your blog. I have played around for a while for the look I want and have not reached it. Looking at it this sleepless night I find it super blah other than the adorable little ones in the header photo. I search around for inspiration and find a ton, so maybe that is the problem. Is there such a thing as over inspired? How about sidetrackedness...yes that is a word! So hopefully sometime soon, at a more approriate time of day we will have a prettier more inspired blog look. 

For now Happy Halloween and on to getting ready for this evenings party! 

Note to self...don't plan a Halloween party when you are in the middle of a kitchen face lift! You are crazy!  

For now I will leave you with more adorable kiddos...enjoy!

All sugar and spice...more spice I think!

She loves him...he finds her hilarious!

But Mom! I want to eat this leaf!

Living/Dinning Room After Stage 1

The dinning room before...with Grandmas stuff...nice but not me. 


 Dinning Room after! 
New paint on the walls as of this weekend. Yeah I know its beige but its beige with potential...think new drapes and amazing accessories...that is stage 2! I am thrilled for the progress so far. Now if only I could get a new chandelier! 

Projects done to date, Chandelier chain cover, refinished Chandelier, Paint. 


Living Room Before:

Grandmas stuff plus one husband and baby! My goodness he was little.




Living Room after stage 1:

Paint and that is is so far. 

To be added soon...Drapes and accessories 

Oh and the TV doesn't go there, I'm waiting for the super tall husband to hang the window coverings and then we will move it back into the corner. 
Unless the flat screen tv fairy arrives with one to mount on the wall! hint hint!




 Pretty! I am glad things are moving along and starting to look more like our home. Now onto finishing the tons of projects. Halloween party...6 days and counting, Mom's 50th Birthday party 12 days and counting. Things that need to be done before both events...to many to count!
