oh so random

Is it really December already? I have no idea where November went! I have been so crazy busy that I haven't had time to read any blogs at all! Update my own? HA! I wish I could say the next update will be soon, but if you hold your breathe until then...you might be in trouble!

My kids had a great Halloween! Unbelievably, I got them to dress up as a theme! Dorothy and Tin man were borrowed from people my sister babysits for. The scarecrow was an original. Gene still hasn't noticed that the head piece use to be one of his t-shirts. A group from church (about 30 people!) came over and we trick-or-treated the neighborhood on trailers! It was so fun!

We had a great fall festival at church, Trevor's team finished third in the fall state tournament (and is done until the spring), we had a fantastic Thanksgiving with family, and all enjoyed the wonderful fall weather!

As if my life wasn't crazy enough...I now have a fourth child! Her name is Kaya and she is a five month old boxer. We got her October 30th as an early Christmas present for the kids. She is the sweetest dog ever but her house training leaves something to be desired! It is honestly like having another child! Morgan was terrified of her for about a week but then decided she loves her and we practically have to beat her off the dog. It's so sweet! All the trouble is almost worth it when I see how happy the kids are!
