Ok... I'm going to barrage ya'll with pictures... I'm trying to get my write-up about our trip done, but first I'll start with the not so distant past, and then move further in the past to the trip.

Halloween:

Ashley had a book report due on Halloween day. It was a biography on a famous american. She choose Betsy Ross. She wasn't thrilled with the costume I came up with, but she didn't want it to be her halloween costume, so I told her since we bought the halloween costume, I wasn't spending money on this costume.


Alyssa and Angela and I started carving pumpkins while the older kids were at school. They had a BLAST! and loved pulling out the guts.
