PUMPKINS!!!

Halloween is here!!! I love Halloween!! I love to dress up and most of all i love to carve pumpkins!

So i did the witch and Josh did the John Deere!

So just to tell you how wonderfully my husband is He did that free hand. I thought that was way awesome! Anyway

Josh doing some finishing touches.

Then Debby starts telling Josh how to make it better and then...

She just goes after it like a crazy person but its OK she stopped her before she could do to much damage. Just kidding!

Debby carved the bat. David carved a landscape of Alaska with special meaning to Debby AHHH !

Don't they look great and i can't wait to show you the Halloween costumes I make for this year I hope they will turn out as good as they are in my head.

So Happy Halloween.

Why do we have Children?

So it really makes me wonder why Heavenly Father blesses us with children. I always thought it was so that I could teach them the right thing and hope and pray that they choose the right. Well I was wrong! So today I was putting a puzzle together with my two year old, Beca and she was getting on my nerves a little bit. That is when she looks at me and said " Mommy why are you yelling at me". That really stopped me in my tracks and made me think. Was I yelling at her? Why was I yelling at her? and what about? After I stopped and looked at the situation I was getting mad at her because she wasn't letting me do the puzzle the way I wanted it to be done. So today I realized why we have Children to keep us humble, to teach us how to share, and to tell us what we need to work on while we are being parents.

Well the good news is I listened to Beca and after that the puzzle went really well and we had tons of fun.

I love you at ton Beca Rae!
