Maddie-Our Ballerina

I should get into the details of our week, but until I get some sleep, the pictures will have to do. Much to tell. There was costumes, candy, and contests (that we won!!!). Bye for now. Happy Halloween!

The Menu

I love all these ideas! Hopefully I can pull them all off for Brady's Halloween party (plus pizza). I can do this, I can do this, I can do this...if I keep telling myself I can, then it will happen! Right? www.marthastewart.com

Sorry, I do not know how to link them properly. If you click on the link and do a search you should find the "treat" you are looking for.

Ballet Shoes for Maddie Moo

My little ballerina will have some ballet slippers that were made with much love. They are so far from perfect, but she loves them and that is all that matters to me!

Buzz Boots

I have so much to do this week, but I can't resist stopping to show you the goodies! I think these Buzz Lightyear boots are turning out awesome!!! They only need one more coat of purple, "Andy" painted on the bottom, and a clear coat to help protect it all. I forgot to take a "before" picture but remembered I took this one of Maddie being silly last week. They were pink and red...cute, but not Buzzish. I have more to show you soon! I hope!!! Is anyone else ready for Halloween to be over yet?

The white and purple is paint and the green is duct tape. Who knew they made it in so many colors!

Still to do:
* Buzz gloves and jet pack
* Ballet shoes
* Plan menu for Brady's Halloween party, shop for it, cook it...Party Friday!
* Get my Pumkin Bowling booth ready for the church Harvest Festival on Saturday
* Make two deserts for the Cake Walk
* Get Brady's hair cut tomorrow
* I'm sure I am forgetting something!
*** HAVE FUN!!!

It happened AGAIN!

Sunday morning we left Paris a little before 7am so that we would make it to Edmond, OK in time for Toby's dedication. We were probably 20 miles out of town when I realized I had forgotten my camera yet again! What is wrong with me! There was no time to turn around to get it. :( I copied these pictures of him off of facebook. The first one is from a recent family photo shoot they had done and the second, I think, is one that I took for my cousin with her camera. I am thankful I was able to be there to see him being dedicated to God!

He is precious.

What a beautiful family!

This week is going to be a busy one! I should have lots of pictures to show you throughout the week. See you later!

Oh mind, please come back!

Tuesday was Open House at Brady's school. Thankfully I remembered it, but taking my camara didn't even cross my mind. Hopefully I haven't lost it! (Mind, not camera!) That nose is a tiny bit scary.
On Wednesday they all took stuffed animals to school so they could have a slumber party. Well this morning we found the animals like this! They didn't do much sleeping! Not only did I forget my camera, I completely forgot about the sleep over fun. : ( Hoping my mind returns soon!!!

What did moms do before there were cell phone cameras to save the day?

Fire Station Field Trip

We went on a field trip to the fire station today!!! The kiddos had a blast! But first I posted a pic of Brady and Madelyn from exactly three years ago today. I like to look back sometimes to remember how tiny they were and see what we were up to. Three years ago we were in Arkansas for birthdays and my "baby" was actually a baby. Brady with his Best Friend.
Sparky! Maddie didn't want to leave. :-(
