Thanksgiving/Joey's birthday
This year was one of those fun years when Joey's birthday was on Thanksgiving. Consequently he got to have Birthday pie, yum! We went up to Uncle Brett's house in Dallas for the big day. It was great! Among other things it was our first close encounter with Tivo. What a great invention! The food was fabulous and the company was too. It even snowed for about 5 minutes! I forgot how much colder Dallas is than San Antonio. I don't think I even brought coats for everyone :0 Here is breaking footage of the blizzard:
Halloween 2007
This year the kids and I made wooden grave stones for our yard using the jigsaw Matt and Colleen gave us for Christmas last year. I can't tell you how much I enjoy using that saw! It's so powerful! It was so fun to just randomly decide one boring saturday that instead of organizing and cleaning our eternally messy home we would instead make our grave stones out of random scraps of wood. The kids had a lot of fun painting their own stones and writing things about themselves on them. We all wrote that we were dying on 10/31/2007 which I suppose was just tempting fate to have us all get in a fatal car accident that night (having written down our deaths weeks before) but we managed to survive the night and now have 5 very large tombstones competing for space in our attic. That really was probably one of my favorite parts of this Halloween, but of course there was also the pumpkin carving, ward party, the school party/performance, and actual Halloween night, Not to mention WAAAAAAY too much candy.
That white stuff all over my dresser, that's lotion. I guess it looked a little dry. That's what happens when you think your 2 year old is asleep in bed and really he's not. Actually that is just a very tame incident that Justin cleaned up. He still thinks it's cute enough to merit a picture. In addition to "greasing" up the furniture, he also used some of my perfume that night. Luckily he still knows how to be extra cute when caught doing something wrong.

Well, Justin is in Honduras this week. He is taking health surveys for the government and participating in some free clinics. He's been having a great time. He just called tonight briefly and told us that he has been having a great time. HE says the people are great and his spanish is coming back and he's even dreaming in spanish again. HE got to ride in a black hawk and play lots of soccer and participate in a few clinics.
Meanwhile back at the ranch. . . I've been busy organizing the lonely wives club. A few of my friends had working husbands on Tuesday so we all got together and had dinner together. It was a lot of fun. I've also been frantically painting furniture and vainly trying to save Michelle from violent attackers. Nathan threw a can of pears at her head on Monday to spite me. She is fine, but the whole incident was scary. Of course she screamed, but calmed down shortly after I picked her up. She has a nasty red mark on her cheek, but it never did bruise and as her pupils looked normal I didn't take her in, and she seems to be normal. THe kids also almost knocked over the shopping cart in the grocery store and she would have gone down as well, but luckily I caught her just in time. I accidentally dropped her in her carseat also. Poor baby! She has had an awful week, but she is still doing well and starting to smile sweet but infrequent little smiles at us. We can't wait for Justin to get home on Saturday!
