Trick or Trunk 2010

This year, Halloween snuck up on the Roberts' family.
We were totally ill prepared.
We bought pumpkins and forgot to carve them.
I was working on costumes the very day of
trick or trunk and did not finish.
And we did not get a group shot of our kids.
Not to mention, we failed to take a picture of Ms. Ruby!

Savannah is there in the red. She chose a costume that
did not look like much of a costume to me.
I think she was just trying to be a cute little
Hannah Montana or something.

Little Larry went as FBI. I searched high and low for an
affordable suit for him. After 11 stores,
I got one at Belk 40% off.

Ethan was mistaken for a power ranger, but he actually
went as a ninja. At least that is what he said he was.

My twilight obsessed boy went as a vampire.
He wanted me to make him a cape, but it had to have the red lining.
His daddy wanted to buy one of those muscle padded
shirts and rip some jeans for Xander to go as Jacob.

A Family Fun magazine recipe.
Spinach hummus with some ghoulish creatures
in a cracker cemetery. Larry had me whip this up
for the party even though neither of us like hummus.
We did learn that our kids love it.

I promise next year we will be so much more prepared.

I'm not so good at Halloween either. If Gregg's mom doesn't make it, the kids are pretty much on their own. I love the FBI agent costume. Here, a couple of kids went as missionaries, kind of the same look.
PS. My kids love hummus too.

What on Earth!? How can you not stop and smile?

This morning I woke up and felt really good and energized. I was just ready to start the day. I had a little fun on the wii fit at 5:30Am before waking the kids.   A Valentine's gift from a dear husband.  I love video games and well, you might as well exercise while playing. Afterwards, I started with my chores.  Just trying to tackle  one room at a time.  The first room I cleaned was the children's living room.  Why did I choose this room? I knew Ethan & Ruby would play and watch TV, but I had no idea they would do this!? Here is a darling Ruby Isabella exhausted and asleep after her mayhem and destruction. Yes, that is toilet paper all over the floor. An entire roll they managed to toss all over the living room. They also got a hold of the baby bath and made some bubbles in  the boys bedroom, and got a hold of the lotion and squirted it all over  the footboard on my bed.  Where am I during all this? Feeling really good because I had washed, dried, and folded 4 loads of la...

Apple Festival

OK,  I was too excited to wait on this new post.  We went to the Hendersonville Apple Festival this afternoon.  We have lived here 2 years and this was our first time going.  It was fun.  People had their crafts for sale and of course, lots of apples.  Anyways, center stage, a band was performing old rock n roll music.  We stopped to take a break and enjoy ice cream.  While sitting there, a square dancer asked Larry Denzil to be her partner in the square dancing routine.  Talk about a laugh, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures.  Did I forget to mention that the Hurts were in for a visit? Ok, here is Larry Denzil having a great time square dancing. I think he has found his true calling. Here is little Larry relaxing during the bands gig. Here is Larry Denzil and the little old lady who asked him to be her partner.  Poor thing, I do not think she read the back of his shirt.  He had the number  7 and at the top it said Baby Maker.  This was his work soft ball shirt. He is actually enjoying...
