This is what happens when daddy leaves town....

Something big seems to happen every time Wes goes hunting. Last time a pipe broke that was coming off the hot water heater. Had he been home, he could've fixed it because he is handy that way. I, on the other hand, am not quite that handy so I had to call the plumber. The time before that, I was up at the kid's soccer practice and my car battery died, good thing Jonathan is handy and could help me replace it. Well this time my little Bella was running, tripped and fell, hitting a kitchen chair at Grandma's house. It bled pretty good for a few minutes and since it was so late all of the urgent cares were closed so we had to go to the ever so exciting ER. They did a great job, although her screaming was probably a little unsettling. They numbed her pretty good but what really made her mad was being restrained. They wrapped her body up real tight in two sheets so she couldn't move and then they put drapes all around the cut so that all we could see of her was the cut. This did not go over well, she couldn't see anything, and she screamed. But she is doing better now and I hope no one gets grossed out easily cuz it's a pretty good split. Thanks to Audrie who watched my kids and did my dishes while we were gone and thanks to Gwen for coming to the hospital and supporting us through.

The annual Trunk or Treat




Noah is always happy and up for anything!
 Easten and his usual happy face!
 Bella Bee!


 Katelynn was helping me get them ready. Thanks Katie-lynn!



 That's a little better!




The kids had a great time trunk or treating. They always do, and this year my husband was able to join us. He is usually working every year, don't think he has joined us since before Easten was born. The kids all looked so cute. I love being able to be at home and do fun things with them. Grateful to have a husband who works so hard for us so I can be at home.
