Tag you're it!



I've been tagged by my cousin Becky to tell you 7 random and or weird facts about myself! So here goes!
1. I was diagnosed with failure to thrive when I was a baby, guess I didn't like to eat, we all know that is not the case anymore!
2. I have been pooped on by a bird right on top of the head twice! Once in 5th grade (field trip to Seattle) and once just this last Feb. at Woodland Park Zoo. HUMILIATING!!!
3. I met my awesome husband when I was 15 and we have been together ever since! Married 11 years this month!
4. I showed horses growing up Western mostly, a little English too, but I miss it and would love to ride again!
5. Even though I have lived in the "city" now for 11 years, I grew up 30 miles from the nearest town and was a total country bumpkin growing up! Wish I could raise my kids 30 miles from town, not much trouble you can get into out there! : )
6. One of my oldest and dearest friends grew up down the road from me and we rode bikes to each other's houses during the summer (2 miles) we once picked up a sugar beet from the side of the road and it was our "pet" like I said not much to do up there!
7. I am afraid of being outside in the dark. SPOOKY!!!
Now it's your turn!

Pumkin Carving

Well, it's almost Halloween and we carved pumpkins tonight! I think Joey ended up the messiest with seeds all over his body, but they all got pretty gooey! Gracie's friend Hannah helped us out with her expert carving skills! They all turned out really cute and the kids were all very proud of their pumpkins! Of course we had to get some pictures of Eli just chilling in the bouncy while we carved!

6th Folder 6th Picture


I got this from my friend Cassi's blog http://joeandcassi.blogspot.com/ and I thought it was such a great idea. This picture is of Gracie helping me do dishes! It was taken in August of 2004. Look at those cute chubby cheeks! What a good little helper she was. She is still a good helper, but only when she wants to be! : ) So tag, now it's your turn! Can't wait to see all the 6th pictures from your 6th folders too!

Pumpkin Patch



On Sunday afternoon we headed out to the Country Mercantile Pumpkin Patch! The kids had a great time climbing on the straw bale pyramid, going through the petting zoo, making their way through the straw bale maze, and of course the hay ride out to the pumpkin patch. Cole had to pick the biggest pumpkin he could find weighing in at a whopping 38 pounds! Joey found one the perfect size for him to carry! I had to add in a picture of Eli too. He is six weeks old today and look who's smiling! He has been smiling more and more every day. Now it's a little easier to capture on camera!

LOST

The following was posted at Mike's job last week. Mike is such a good sport. We all get a good laugh at his expense. Of course, he is the one who posed for the picture! LOL Hope this gives you all a good laugh too! Just in case you can't read it, here is what it says:

Have you seen this man? He answers to Mike...He is one of Townsend Controls "Special" workers. Very friendly, gets confused easily. Last seen in Pasco shredding paper. Easily distracted by shiny objects, likes bunnys. If found call 1-509-Ree-Tard.


I like bunny's

Our family at Columbia Industries dearly misses our Mike. He is completely harmless and wouldn't hurt a deer. Mostly because he can't hunt very well. If you have any information about his whereabouts please don't call.

Another week gone by!

Cleaning his plate, who doesn't love spaghetti?
