Halloween Happenings

We have many Halloween events happening this year, and today I finally decided I should take a few pictures.

Here is a preview of what the Gonzalez children will look like tomorrow.








Today was Abby's Halloween Party and School. Here she is with Miss Carrie and Miss Tracy.

Here is the masked beauty with her girlfriends

I wish you could see how amazing her hair is! I am NUTS to spend so much time on a 3 year olds hair!


Here is one of the "Mummy Dogs" I spent the morning creating.


The entire class reading a Halloween story

This is not "the end," just "wait until tomorrow!"

Saftey First!

Abby is really mov'in and grov'in on her tricycle. After crashing and burning a few times we decided a helmet would not be a bad idea! Since it is purple with huge pink flowers Abby thinks it is pretty awesome!


Lucky Abby, the set came with elbow and knee pads.

Charlie likes to hop on for a ride.

Pretty dang cute!

Wanna good laugh?

Halloween ruined

Halloween is going to suck this year!

Photo update

I just don't have it in me to come up with witty commentary on my photos. For now just enjoy updated pics of the kids.

Hope you all have a great week!

County Fair

The Coweta County Fair is a pretty big deal around here, so I talked Carlos into taking the kids this afternoon. Today was the bovine competition, so were a LOT of cows, big belt buckles and boots! Funny, but I don't think we got one picture of a cow!

I pretty much think the kids were in heaven.


We asked Abby to pose for the picture and she decided to kiss the chick. Cute, and a little gross.



Charlie was delighted to find an egg in this chicken cage. While I had my head turned to take the picture he reached in and picked it up. OUPS!


The highlight of the fair was the nasty stinky petting zoo. Here are the kids feeding the rams.



This camel was VERY aggressive and bit Carlos's finger when trying to take the entire cup of food from his hand. Charlie, like with all things in his life, had no fear and stuck his entire hand in the camel's mouth.


And here is my "Oh so cautious" Abby.


I don't think I have ever seen a Kangaroo at a petting zoo.




Abby has this thing lately of naming things. Watch and witness.


And what fair experience would be complete without cotton candy? Don't worry, we all washed our hands SEVERAL times, and used germ juice (anti-bacterial) as backup!





What a fun day!

I love him already!

On Thursday September 26th my brother and sister-in-law had their first child. Congratulations Rob and Mel! At 8lbs, 9oz and a day overdue I have no idea how Mel did it.

Rob and Mel NEVER discussed their short list of baby names. Secretly we were all afraid they had some horrific name selected that they did not want to get flack about from the peanut gallery. Who knew the secrecy was for the big surprise! I am pleased to welcome Thomas Jaden Glade to the family! The name is especially special because he is named after my own sweet dad, Thomas Glade.







Don't you think he is just perfect?
