FOR THE WARMTH OF THE CHILDREN

So, I really do have the most wonderful family ever! My cute nephew Alec, started this clothing drive a few years ago and it now includes his brother Carter and sister Savvy. They work hard on this project getting the word out and collecting everything and then taking it to schools in underpriveleged areas! Please visit this blog and take a minute out of your day to see if you could donate anything at all. I would be more than happy to pick up anything you might have!
And just remember that more and more people need OUR help this year with the slumping economy and so many losing their homes. These kids have helped to remind me that I have been extremely blessed and I should share my blessings with others! Thanks to all my nieces and nephews who help to make me a better person!

A little late but.....Happy Halloween!

Here are the guys. I am not sure what face Matt is doing, but he was pulling it in every pic!
I decided I couldn't be a blonde!


She sat in this same spot for probably 10 minutes(which is not easy for her!)



I think Savvy was the only one that wasn't confused about what to do in this shot!


This is the funniest, because Addy was really sad that she had to wear her costume at first and Emerie just loved it!



Here are our Halloween pics. The girls were lambs. Emerie was only too happy to wear her costume, but Addison had to get used to it first. Savvy was Little Bo Peep and Luke was the big bad wolf!? We walked around Robyn and Jer's neighborhood for a little while and then went to see Dan, Kim and Ambree. By that time they were definitely done for the day, but Aunt Kimmy gave them each a sucker with the wrapper on and that appeased them until they figured how to get the warpping off and I took the suckers away(bad idea!) It was a fun night, probably more so for me than them, but oh well! Thanks Mimi for the perfect costumes!!!
The pics of Matt and I are at a Halloween party with the Allen's, the Monsen's and the Fairbanks. Matt and I were Sandy and Danny from Grease. I think we looked pretty good, especially Matt with his wig and 5700 bobby pins! Thanks Allen's for letting us invade your house this year!
