Did you eat too much too?

I guess that's the name of the game on Thanksgiving...

Sophie's Got Skillz

Sophie picked this up after Rossy left his RipStik when he moved to Utah.  

5 things that make me happy.

This boy {how hilarious is this school picture.  He looks like Jonathan Taylor Thomas from the Home Improvement years. cutie.}

And his dragon {built in a cool dragons and dinosaurs class at the rec center. Notice the 3 eyes, sort of his signature art element right now. pretty much all of his drawings have 3 eyes.}
After voting for the Gwyneth hair on Beth's blog.  She looks awesome as a dark haired Gwyneth, by the way. Anyway, I followed the link to Gwyneth's post-baby trainer, Tracy Anderson and ordered her Post-Pregnancy DVD. {in a wee bit of a post-baby workout plateau, I am.}  And let me tell you, I did it for the first time this morning and it ROCKS. It's a mat workout that is all about strength and stretching but I was sweating like crazy. It's good.  She has a cardio one that I may have to spring for in a few weeks.  

Jessica blogged about this poster she just ordered from Penny People Designs.  What a great name, Penny People...I love it.    She got one for her new baby, Ida (also a super great name and due in January) and I want one to put next to Penny's crib.  

My sister Kelly, her husband, 4 little ninos (including new little baby, Elliot) and my parents are coming for Thanksgiving next week!  We are beyond excited to see everyone.  

So that's it. Yay for happy days. 

Photo Shoot

Fun with Ross and Remily in the new little studio in the garage. 



 

Bad Blogging week.

Hope you all had a great week.  Thought Sophie needed a little shout out...or a giant one.  Anyone know how to shrink that pic?

And...Throw it to the Birdies,

For Penny and Me!

{Luv how her hands barely pass the top of her head.}

Doesn't she remind you of one of the Golden Girls? It's the pose and the head tilt or something. 

GO Prop 8! have they called it yet?

What is wrong with everybody. 52% to 48% is a pretty clear win, just call it already!

And Congrats to the Obama camp. Looks like a new chapter in American History.

Just a few Halloween pics

15 adults, 13 kiddos and a whole lot of candy. That is what our halloween was like this year. It was great. A big thanks to everyone that came all ready to party and brought delicious stuff to eat. It really was a great time. 

Doug as the 6 million dollar man, Steve Austin. That fact that most everyone at the party didn't know who that is shows that we're definitely the oldies of this particular group. ha ha. He had chuck norris, Coach Bolton and some trailer trash accompanying him.The whole gang standing in front of the most ghetto part of our house. 
Party set up.  Fun times. 
I've got to take owen to school so i'll download the rest off doug's camera when i get back. 

Oh, and Penny "threw it to the birdies" ,(ya know, patty cake, patty cake?) all by herself last night.  We all went crazy which freaked her out so bad we had to put her to bed.  We'll see if she remembers today.  who hoo, big girl. 

Here is our Friend Maureen as Sarah Palin. Perfect.  I wish i would have taken a pic of the hair. it was perfect. 

Not in his Wall.e costume, but still so cute.
By the end of the night, every single child was riding or being carried home.  Bart was the big hero.  
Getting some loves from my girl.  She is learning to give Kisses.
