Where did October go????

I just realized that I have missed the whole month of October. Not that there was nothing going on, I just haven't had the ambition to sit down and blog. October was a lot like a roller coaster ride. We had lots ups and lots of downs! Geez...the ups were great! We had lots of family time! Pumpkin roll, Lewis Farms (twice), birthdays, a brand new baby being born into the family, and of course Halloween! On the other hand, it was a very emotional month, my uncle having open heart surgery, having to put our beloved dog Tucker to sleep, the threat of illness lurking around every corner, (thankfully we have not been hit), Ryan deciding that he does not want to go to preschool and now cries when I drop him off, and others trying to interfere on how we should be raising our kids! It's been a rough ride, but it's now November and the rest of the year is going to be great! We are going to stay healthy, Ryan is going to get over this hurdle of suddenly being so attached to me, and we are going to continue to do what is best for "OUR" family!

Hey those pics really sum up the month! Not only do I love those costumes, but I LOVE them on those kids of yours!! Totally adorable!! Miss Personality is like the cutest thing ever, and Ryan with his crooked Dino head cracks me up!! Great post, Mandy. Life happens, but I love that you are finding the fun and the joy:)

Yeah, so I noticed the monthe flew by...hello! Just giving you a hard time. That little girl of yours is somethin' else. Gosh, those little piggies on her head...love them! She made an adorable little witch! I'll keep the pics away from Kyle. Good Lord, I'll probably end up with them posted around my home! Ryan is such a sweetie. Hopefully something just clicks with him soon and you'll both be good to go. Hang in there.

Remember, if you're having a bad day, you can always borrow my 3 barrel iron and wig and do some major damage!! ;)
