Our Halloween Gingerbread House

Last night we found a gingerbread house at the store that came with the things to decorate it as a halloween project. Weve seen them for christmas but never halloween, so we decided to get it. The kids were so excited. I frosted the pieces together but the kids all decorated it all on their own. I thought it came out very cute and they were all so proud. Maybe we'll eat after a few days??? Or maybe not!

Lindy's Dance Class had a Halloween Party today ...

It was so cute. All the girls got to go dressed up in their costumes. All the girls had such cute outfits. Lindys little friend Madison was cinderella and her friend Emma was a pumkin fairy. Cute , cute, cute! They all brought different treats and even did a little dance to the song thriller. We had a good time.

Here is Lindy in her little witch costume



She had to do a pose ofcourse

Introducing Miss Lindy Shea...Self proclaimed Fashion Queen



I just had to post a few of these pictures. Lindy comes up with the craziest outfits. She changes her clothes several times a day which drives me crazy, but shes totally into it. Shes very serious when she comes out to show me what shes put together. Shell say, "Is this Beautiful mom"? My answer.."Of course, Always"!!!








This one is so sweet she looks so young. It was taken feb 08
and another...

And of sourse a dress up one

This one was too funny, she used my robe belt as a scarf (a little long) And the sun had just finished it off.

This was just crazy...The hair, and the boots, a wizard hat... just perfect!

The glasses...always upside down! Shes trying to start a trend.
And those boots again I think they must complete every outfit. Notice the pose!?

Remember her name ! Maybe someday shell be a famous fashion designer or just famously cooky! :) Either way we love her to pieces.

Had to add a few pictures from jasons bday night.

Make it a good wish daddy! You deserve it.

Weekend Getaway

These were pictures taken on the machine at chuckE cheese

This saturday we went to Albuquerque and spent the night in a hotel down there. The kids love to stay at hotels and to swim in the pools. We were all over do for a little fun time. It was nice to get out of town for a change of scenery. We did some shopping of course since they have some of our favorite stores. Old Navy,We all were in need of a few new winter clothes. And we went to the Disney Store, where each kid got to pick a prize. Sis went crazy for all the princess stuff...But had to just pick one! Darn! We also went to ChuckE Cheeses the kids always LOVE that. Then to Olive Garden,for dinner which was a big treat for me, since its my favorite and we dont have one in Farmington. Then after a full day we headed back to the hotel to swim the night away. We all had a great time. Sorry I cant post more pictures but like a dummy I forgot my camera.

As some of you know our house is surrounded by grape vines. Jasons grand parents planted them like 50 years ago. I read that a grape vine will live up to 100 years. This year Papa decided he was going to pick every last one of them. So we have been juicing our brains out! I think we did 20 cases (of 12 jars) so thats like 240 jars. We made mostly white but some purple. We also discovered red grapes which I didnt even know we had. They are the best tasting. We will definatly be stocked up on juice till next summer.

Today we decorated cupcakes for Jordan and Haden to take to share in their class. We also made some for the house of course! They were so yummy and made the house smell sooo good. The kids always have a great time decorating them.I think we made 6 dozen!

This was a funny shot. They come up with the craziest things. Boys!

Me, and my girrrls... Holls and Rachelle my Sister-in-law :)
We had our friends the Lybrooks, and Jasons sisters family,Verbecks over for pizza friday night. We all had a great time visiting and the kids did too! They got into our collection of costumes and had a blast dressing up all night. This is a picture of the group. They were all so adorable!

Lindy is growing up so fast. She recently had her third birthday. Shes doing all sorts of big girl stuff. She brushes her teeth all alone, has been potty trained for almost a year, and is even in a ballet and tap dance class. Its the cutest thing ever to watch.
