Family Halloween Party

This year my sister in law Abbey had a Family Halloween Party for the Christensen family. We had so much fun! In addition to the dinner and games, Abbey had each of the kids perform there best "trick". This was by far the FUNNIEST portion of the night! We had a great time and cant wait until Halloween to get all dressed up again!!! Thanks Abbey!!! Oh and if you can't tell from the pictures, Adam was "Joe the Plumber", I was a Southern Bell, and Kelsey and Maya were both Princess Aurora. My Southern Bell costume was made for me by my mom as my Junion Year in High School costume! I still cant believe she made it and I REALLY cant believe it still fit!!!!!

This is my personal favorite picture. Its my niece LuLu in her dad's mullet wig. Too Funny!

Tagged!

Thanks Ranae! This is by far the easist tag ever! Go to your picture file folder on your computer, select the fourth file folder and then pick the fourth picture in that file. Then post the picture! This is a picture of some of my family at my sister Lea's high school graduation 2 years ago in New Jersey. Look how tiny Maya is!!!! I love my family and I dont get to see the ones that live in NJ very often. This picture reminds me of how much fun we all have when we get together!!!

I tag Brandy, Cori (because I KNOW your pictures are so organized), and Laurie George.

Field Trip Fun!

Today was Kelsey's first school field trip! All the kindergarteners went to Cornbellys. It was so fun! We took a school bus to Cornbelly's and it was Kelsey's first time riding a bus. She was so excited that the school bus didnt have seatbelts, she thought it was cool to be able to stand up while the bus was moving!

As Room Mom, I was a parent helper for todays field trip. Here are my "kiddos" for the day. I forgot how crazy 5 year old boys were, they kept running away!!

Kelsey's friend Abby was in our group. They had a great time doing all of the activities together.

The pumpkin patch was everyones favorite part. The kids were very particular in selecting there pumpkins!!! After 20 minutes everyone finally found the perfect pumpkin for them.

It was great to be able to go with Kelsey on her first fieldtrip. We had such an awesome time together! A special thanks to Kelsey's kindergarten teacher Ms. Gurney. She is such an incredible teacher, we are so lucky to have her this year. Kelsey loves her so much!!

Go Heidi!!

This weekend Adam and I went to St. George to see his sister Heidi run the St. George Marathon. She did such a great job!!! She finished the race smiling and still happy!! We are all so proud of her! She is such an inspiration, she has 4 children under the age of 4, two of which are 18 month old twin boys!!!! She has truely made me believe that you can do anything you put your mind to. So it is with an inspired spirit that I announce that next year I too will run the St. George Marathon!!! Yes pick your jaw up off the ground, I am going to do it! This will be my goal for the next year and I am eager to begin my training! GREAT JOB HEIDI! We love you!
