Finally.....Halloween Pictures

By -
Joey is my taste tester...he gets really into it!!! We made a couple different fun halloween treats the week before Halloween...Joey and Lily both love to help me bake (and eat it!)

This is Lily and Joey before going to trunk-or-treat at our ward...it was a nice night outside and they didn't even need their jackets and they got tons of candy and had a great time.


We spent Halloween weekend down in Cedar Grove and went to my parent's trunk-or-treat too!...we hit as many places as we could!



The next day on Halloween we went trick-or-treating with my dad in Cedar Grove...Every year Lily gets to ride in the wagon, the lucky bum!... I wasn't planning on going along this year, but I couldn't resist. I love going trick-or-treating... the only shoes I brought with me were heels, so after two hours of trick-or-treating I had major blisters and then I got to ride in the wagon with Lily...after getting a piggy-back from Adam for about 5 blocks!(but sadly enough we didn't get any pictures!!)

I love those costumes! Did they get a lot of candy? And I really wish there was a picture of you in the wagon, lol!

It's been a while since I've written...sorry for the blog slacking (is that the technical term??)  I've been wanting to write for a while, but I've had severe case of blog-writers-block!  I'm just going to try and push through it though, thanks to all my supporters out there who have encouraged me (you know who you are!! :) ) Lily is so excited to wear all her new clothes she got from Auntie Heidi...Heidi picked up some amazing deals at the Children's Place outlet in WI Dells and Lily got about 5 new dresses and she changes outfits about 5 times a day so she can wear everything!  This is a picture of her modeling one of her dresses and showing off her artwork. You can see she really loves the dress... Speaking of artwork, while Lily was painting she said "I am an artist just like Auntie Chrissy!"  Watchout Chrissy, there might be some competition coming! :) Anyway, I will try and do better with updating...I promise!  Check back often!!

Another dress for Lily

I had a stack of pillow cases given to me today, so I couldn't resist trying to make Lily another dress...Lily can't have anything without fairies or princesses so this dress has fairy ribbon sewn at the bottom and tied around the waist (and yes, we are in Wisconsin where it is snowing out today, but Lily somehow is never cold!). To anyone out there who might be under the wrong impression that I am a good sewer, I will tell you again I am not... This will prove it... While I was sewing today on the sewing machine I actually sewed the needle right through my entire tip of my pointer finger!! ouch!!! Would a real sewer do something like that?? :) Luckily Lily was right there to get me a princess band-aid!

Although I have 5 kids under my roof today, somehow I am blogging?!?... I wanted to quick tell about our adventures and post some pictures today just in case Heidi happened to check!  Let me start with this...anyone who knows me knows one main fact about me and my kids...we have MAJOR sleep issues in this house!!!.. I have always looked at the Justus kids and known they are perfect sleepers...Heidi and Eric can take them anywhere and they sleep.  They go to bed somewhere between 7:00-8:00, and it seems for the most part sleep all night.  I have witnessed this anomaly on numerous occassions.  However,...my children do not.  I've always thought it was something in the genes, however after last night I realized kids who are around me don't go to sleep!!!  I started the 'going to bed' process at 7:00....I herded all 5 kids upstairs to get ready for bed (Joey was very resistant because he had just woken up 1/2 hour earlier from a nap!!...) Got the 2 boys down, 1...
