Blame Facebook!

Hey....HEY...anyone still reading this? OK Karen, no more having to look at my cleavage!!! I think I am back. Seriously, facebook has taken over the blog time. I have missed it..I have missed Carey and Karen!

The rest of our October and November went quickly!

Had the annual Halloween party at our house.

Carsen turned 6! We had a big party where we took 15 kids to the movies then out for food, soda, cake and presents! The party room at Wingers was TORN UP!! They were all great but Wingers puts bowls of popcorn on every table so put that many kids and popcorn together and where do you think most of it ends up???~The floor! Our waiter was so great I was trying to help him clean up and he kept telling me to leave it. He actually said "Thank you for ordering something."

Which led me to think that people use this room, mess it up and don't order anything??











AND he lost his first front tooth..well if truth be told I yanked it out due to the fact that it had been loose moved and started to reattach itself in a funny sticking out, position so the adult tooth was just coming in behind it. It took dental floss and 4 good pulls to come out. Sounds yucky huh! He took it like a champ!







Griffen just been "going to school and doing chores" (according to him.) But I guess it paid off as he made the HONOR ROLL!!!!! this term.. his words were..."I got all A's and 1 B and made the honor roll and did you know that if I get all A's I can make the Grand Honor Roll?" Funny thing was he said it with something akin to Shock and Awe. My impression is that he did not even know that such things as honor rolls existed.

So that leads up to last night and our annual Snowflake parade which has consumed most of my whole week. Somehow...unbeknownst to me it was determined that I had artistic talent..(I don't) and I was nominated to paint all the details on our float. To include drawing and painting people. Fortunately, where I was working on it one of the guys that worked there took pity on me and drew the people for me so I just had to color them in. It actually came out pretty good and Griffen got to ride on it down main st!
