Crazy Claire

Claire likes to shower ANYTIME with ANYONE.  She used to get up at 6 AM and shower with me until we put a stop to this routine.  She would shower 4 times a day if it was up to her. 

 

The girls had some friends sleep over and Kate and Claire caused some grief:)

Eggs, Eye Appt, and Arizona/Duck football game

As you know we have 5 chickens.  Apparently they don't produce eggs in the winter time.  Angie and the girls put a light in the chicken coop to see if this would do anything for egg production. 



Jackpot!!









Sam rollin' with her new sunglasses



Samatha had a recent eye appointment.  We thought she would get a 5 star report because she was down to ONE eye drop a day.....unforunately her eye had regressed!  She is now back to 4 eye drops a day!!



Go Ducks!



Angie and I had the opportunity to go to the Arizona Oregon football game thanks to our good friends Greg and Regina.  We've been so blessed to have Greg and Regina as friends for such a long time.  Greg is now the AD at Arizona.  We wore the Red and Blue colors with pride and rooted for the Cats to upset Oregon. 



Go Cats!!



I feel small!!



Soccer Update

Stella played her last soccer game of the season last Saturday (Nov 13th).  Stella has never scored a goal in her soccer career.  When you are afraid of the ball it makes it more difficult to score!  With the score tied at 2-2, Stella scored the game winning goal!!  The crowd went wild (me and 4 other parents) and her teammates carried her off the field on their shoulders...well not really, but we did celebrate with a stop at Krispy Kreme donut!!

Kate keeps Angie busy

Kate is getting to the point of NOT needing an afternoon nap.  Most days Angie will have Kate go into her room for some 'quiet' time while Claire is napping.  Last week Angie put Kate down and went into the living room to relax and read a magazine.  Not long after Angie heard some noise, but chalked it up to the wind.  She didn't think much of it but continued to hear the 'wind' noise.  Curious as to what this noise was, Angie went and investigated.  She found Kate in Sam and Stella's room!!  She decided to give herself a tattoo with one of Stella's halloween stamps! 

Halloween 2010

This was the first time we went Trick Or Treating without our oldest daughter, Sam.  She was invited to her first Halloween Party--14 eleven year old girls moving in a large mob around the neighborhood.  I heard them from several blocks away! 

Kate refused to dress up with her Dragon costume, but settled on the Frog outfit that she wore the last two years!  It was a little snug.  She learned real quick that each door you knock on produced candy.  She ran from house to house, but would pull up short of the front enterance IF a SCARY CREATURE was present!  She quickly moved on to the houses that looked "normal."
