Halloween Party 2007!

A few more pictures of Halloween!  Last year I hosted the annual party.  It was so much fun and as you can see there were some creative costumes!  I'm sad we aren't having one this year....I needed Summer to help plan it, WE MISS YOU!

 Group photo Halloween 2007!

The hot cowboy and his Indian princess!

Mary and Andy wore these fat suits!  We all tried them on and had so much fun as you can see Ryan is enjoying grabing the inflated boob!

Kristie and Cindy!

Halloweens of the past!

So I began searching through photos of past Halloween parties and decided to post a few pictures.  The pictures below are from Summer's annual Halloween party 2006!  Summer we are sad that this year we don't have a party to go to!

Spyglass Pumpkin Patch!

So I helped Cindy with Izabel and Ford at the Spy glass pumpkin patch.  It was so fun seeing how excited kids get over the smallest things.  It definitely brought back good memories of past halloween adventures.  So sad Sam and Jenelle weren't able to join us like last year!  WE MISS YOU SO DARN MUCH!  Actually Izabel asked about Sam tonight when I stopped by Cindy and Adams.  She asked what Sam was going to be for Halloween.  I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Keeping busy as Newlyweds!

So here a few pictures of the kitchen and living room.......they aren't completely finished, but I think it looks a lot better. I guess you can be the judge of that!

Ryan working hard.  We put in a new floor, painted, assembled and installed kitchen cabinets, put in a new light socket for a microwave (plus many more small things I never dreamed we would get to learn to do!!!!!  Ryan got shocked while attempting to be an electrician, but he pulled through and we were able to install a new microwave.  Let's just say we learned a lot while working together on these projects....

I entered the blog world!!!!

So after some thought I decided to create a blog to keep in contact with family and friends.  I know I don't have any kids to update you on, but it will be fun anyway!!  Below are a few pictures of the wedding.  We were married on March 1st on a really cold rainy, but perfect day!  Now we spend most of our time working, playing, and REMODELING!!!!  I'll have to show some before and after pictures.  My next project is our bathroom.  I've already painted and will hopefully have it completed by Thanksgiving.  

Cindy Bigelow took my wedding photos.  She did such a great job.
