We finally got some new family pictures done on Thanksgiving for our Christmas cards. I don't think that we have had a full family picture since before Haley was born so we thought it was about time. We usually just put the kids on the Christmas card because they are so cute! But since I have lost 23 pounds recently I decided I could be in a picture again.
For Halloween this year the kids were both scarecrows. Riley's costume totally looked like a scarecrow but everybody kept thinking that Haley was a witch. I had to keep politely telling people that she was a scarecrow. They were both stinking cute whatever they were. Clint didn't get to be there so my sister Stacey came up from Logan to hang out with us. We also found out that weekend that Haley is a candy monster. If I let her only have one piece she would cry, if I let her only have two pieces she would cry, and so on. We finally had to hide the candy bowl clear up in the pantry so that she wouldn't see it. Out of sight, out of mind! Grandma Rogers didn't help the situation though, she just kept stuffing the candy in piece by piece! Riley really like the suckers and he was even a big boy and ate them by himself! Well part of it anyway, the rest he threw into the leaves. We took the kids up to Gooding for the trunk or treat and they had a good time going around with all of the kids. Some of the kids definitely had some crazy costumes though! My niece Sami and her friend Jana were the best though. They were the wicked step sisters from Cinderella. The hair was the best!
I am a mommy! I have a husband named Clint who is a Conservation Officer which is just a glorified name for a Game Warden for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game. I have three kids, the first is Riley Everett. He loves his daddy! He is my special little love with all of his therapy and doctors appointments for his seizures and cerebral palsy. My other child is Haley Rae. She thinks that she runs the house. (Okay she does). She is our saving grace we like to say because she helps us keep some of our sanity with our other one. Our third is Cooper Malcom. He was born in 2010 and is such a cutie pie! He is also going to be our one we have to watch very closely! My hobbies are scrapbookng, playing the piano, snowboarding, and I love to cook new recipes.
