An artistic bunch...

Have I mentioned that I'm a lame-o mother? Well I am...and this is proof!

The problem is we moved into a little townhouse that has VERY LITTLE storage, no garage, no nothin'! So to say we have limited space is an understatement. So Halloween comes around, and my kids are so excited to go get some decorations to make our house spooky! But when we get to the store everything I see I think in my head..."where am I going to put that when Halloween is over?" And the answer is- nowhere! So I tell my girls we can get some of those spider webs, but other than that we are going to have to make our own decorations.

And here is the finished product...just say it! (white trash) I know the truth hurts, but at least I don't have to find storage for any decorations :) Don't be embarrassed for me...I feel fine about myself even if people who drive by feel sorry for the poor family who lives in #252.



Cute, little Sydney is just learning how to write and spell. She was SOOOO proud of herself for drawing this picture without any help! What she meant to say was "Boo, Boo.....AAAHHHH!" But what she actually wrote (thanks to the Rideout girls for pointing this out to us) was "Boob-oo...AAAHHH!" I wonder who's boobs she was being frightened by :)



Also, we are very proud of Kallie for winning 3rd place on her reflections picture! Yay Kallie! Dan asked her what she did when they called her name and Kallie said, "I put a smile on my face and I was big and proud!" (hee, hee)



She was beside herself with joy that they gave her this beautiful medal...



Her visual art painting titled "Fairs are Fun"...complete with TONS of glitter for a little bling!
