HALOWEEN AND COLD WEATHER

adessa loves to pose for the camera!
adessa is modeling her new winter wardrobe,
fashionable and practical in it's design,
as you can see the colors are vivid and floral chic!
ahh the warmth of a turtle neck! get yours today at your local department store!
jexten admiring his pumpkin
let's see, one last dab of paint here should do the trick!
anybody ready for some pie?
the full gruesomeness of this pumpkin couldn't be shown. it previously had toothpicks stabbed into the dabs and smears of paint(supposed to be eyeballs). it closely resembled a witch doctor voo doo doll of some kind. kurt took them out. he was scared. ;-) what you see here is the face. what you don't see is the surgery that took place on the face! ewwww groosssss!! HAHAHHAHHA!!
kurt did a really great job on his legend of sleepy hallow horse and headless rider don't you think?
and this is my attempt at a which and cat riding a broomstick through a full moon. i know i know, the cat lost it's tail, but i think that makes it all the more mysterious.....ooooo the cat without a tail...oooooo.. wonder what kind of whiche's brew reqired the tail of a black cat to make the potion potent? woohoohooohoo, halloween tricks and spooks!!!!
it snowed tuesday afternoon, so the kids had to go out and play in the skiffs and tufts that actually stuck!

sliding down slush!

look, you can see each individual snow flake stuck onto this piece of chalk!
i love this face!
holding a piece of snow
eating a piece of snow
jexten has a hard time moving in his snowsuit
he actually tried to go down that slide you see behind him on a board (he calls it his skate board). he stood up on it and pushed himself down the slide like he is snowboarding down a mountain side. ya, he biffed it, but he didn't care, he just rolled around for a second on the ground and got up and started "fixing" his "fort". what a kid!
i love this shot of adessa peeking over the top of the deck. uh oh, glad i took this pic. it looks like jexten has been "fixing" the screw that holds the slide to the deck!! that could be dangerous. man that kid needs constant supervision! you have to watch him like a hawk! adessa looks like she has some scheme up her sleeve, huh?
lost in thoughtful contemplation, and undoubtedly some immaginary game.
bob the builder. he's got a hold of that toolbox at all times. always ready to fix something, or unfix something. whichever gets the most attention or biggest laugh!!

Adessa looks just like you, Vicky, in those turtleneck model pictures! It seems like there's a picture of you just like that floating around somewhere...

I love the cupboard pictures. Kids love small places. It was always good fun when I decided to clean the cabinets and pulled everything out. I purposely left it out for sometimes days because you had so much fun. Adessa's modeling is gorgeous. What a beautiful girl. I especially loved the swinging pictures. That is an awsome swingset. It's funny to see snowsuits and green grass. That's how winter came upon us....real fast! Love Ya all!
