We have lots to do these last few months and I have been once again slacking in the posting department but with the holidays rapidly approaching I want to document things as they happen. In the month of Sept (the same day Josh and I ran the half marathon) we also went to an Indians game that eve. My dad got us tickets from work and we all had a great time! As I have mentioned before our ENTIRE family are sport finatics, and we are introducing it to our little ones while they are young with hopes that they will grow up to love it to! Our whole family went to the game except Natilie who was enjoying her new kitty she got at my ex husband's house.
Justin is my lovey teddy bear, he loves to give his little brother and baby sister kisses and hugs! I just wish these pictures were a little clearer
I just love Delaneys cute behind in her little Levi's
I don't know how she fell asleep that fast after her snack in the highchair that's not even padded!
I had left my purse on my bed with thoughts that it was out of reach of Delaney. I laid her down for her nap in her pacnplay at the end of our bed and when she woke up I went in to get her and she somehow stretched her little arms out far enough to snag my purse, rip open my make up bag and destroyed my eye shadows and evidently she was hungry because it looks like she tried to eat it too!
We have a great little park by our house that has a big pond that the kids LOVE to go and feed the fish and ducks. The fish there must be used to being fed because if you hold the bread out right above the water, the fish actually poke their noses out and take the bread right from your hand, its the funniest thing to watch and wade and Justin LOVE it.
This is how Wade is usually attached to us, he is our monkey that loves to hang off of us.
Delaney wanted to just eat the bread herself, our little chunker..
and me, at least documented that I was there, not the best picture
This is just one picture of how we spend our days with miss Delaney..she is always into EVERYTHING!!! I guess she feels the need to follow in her big sisters footsteps, my girls have been way worse with this type of thing
Daniel and Natilie had their fall band concert and they both did an exceptional job. We really loved the music they played. Here is a picture of natilie and her friend (who everyone confuses these two and mixes their names up, they look like they could be sisters) In the picture below is Daniel in the 8th grade band, I wasn't able to get a close up of him, but he is just left of center with his clarinet.
I made my first loaf of bread! I don't have a bread machine (which I really want one) and I have never been brave enough to make bread and lately I have been trying to do more things to occupy my mind to help me get through this tough period of life I have been going through. I must say, the bread turned out WONDERFUL! I couldn't believe it, it was just perfect and tasted so good, it was an egg bread and the loaf ended up being huge and I didn't double the recipe. The whole loaf was gone by the next day though, can you tell we are a family of carb lovers!
I decided to make some Halloween cookies to drop off to some special friends. I LOVE Halloween and was really excited to use a new sugar cookie recipe that turned out fabulous!
I had recently got a surprise invitation in my mailbox to attend a all women Witches Party by my friend Stephanie! I don't get out much and I was SUPER excited to go to this all by myself and enjoy a few hours with friends. It was SO SO SO much fun! The deal was you had to wear a witches hat to get into the door
Stephanie (left) and Elizabeth (who won most creative witch)
The yummy Halloween themed food to eat, which was all DELICIOUS!
The Witches
I played the donut on a string game. here is Rachel, Elizabeth and I waiting to start. Elizabeth was sure she was going to win and talking smack but I thought to myself "we shall see about that one missy ;)"
I got my whole donut in one mouthful, I have always been told I have a big mouth (in every sense of the word lol) but literally too, I used to compete with boys and girls when I was a kid of who could fit their fist in their mouth and I always won!
I won my first round and the final round. After we were done, Elizabeth said to me "Jennifer you are the most comeptitive person I know" that has always been a very strong trait of mine since I was a kid, I usually won't talk smack, I just like to do it silently, although my hubby says that I can be too competitve lol...
My wonderful friend Ursala and I showing off our witchy hats and smiles. We really had a blast and Stephanie sure knows how to go all out and throw one awesome party!
