Hello All! What a busy month we are having. October is always a busy time of year in our home. Halloween is almost here and I still haven't finished decorating our haunted mansion. Hannah has strep throat and I've had a head cold for the last few days and haven't felt like doing a whole lot. But this weekend is Julia's birthday party with our family and I have a cake to make, decorations to put up and many other things to finish. Jonathan is now crawling and pulling himself up onto things. He is so cute and I can't believe how fast he is growing. All of your kids are growing too fast, how do we make time go slower. They are all getting to be and wanting to be more independant, which is nice but also bitter sweet.
I have to figure out how to make some Halloween costumes, Julia wants to be clopatra, and Maia wants to be a ghost which will be the easiest of the two. She likes the Charlie Brown ghost with the sheet and two holes cut out. Jeremy and I are trying to talk her into being the "pigpen" ghost with all the holes cut all over it. We thought it would be funny but maybe not every one would know what she was trying to be. What ever they decide to be it will be fun for them, Jeremy and I love Halloween and try to make it fun for them.
Our Habitat for Humanity fundraiser is fast approching and I still haven't sent out the info I promised. It will be in your mailboxes soon. We hope you can come help us raise $25,000 for a great cause. Saturday November 1st 5-8 p.m. raffels, auctions, face painting, food, live music and much more. We hope to see you there.
