I'm thankful for my family.....
and for the free country I live in.

More Video Silliness
The Muppets take on Bohemian Rhapsody, apparently in preparation for the new Queen album that is about to come out. Not quite sure what to make of that....

Disney Princesses on Ice
Samantha and I went with Richele, Greg, Nicole and Grampy to Disney Barf Me on Ice. Oh....I mean, Disney Princess on Ice.
Samantha had a lovely time and was so excited about all of it. Nicole, on the other hand, was so confused by all of it! She had never been to anything like this before and she had no idea what to make of it. She had this look of, "What the hell is going on here??" the whole time. In fact, that was the same look Grampy and Greg had too!!!
Samantha and I had a great time together and Alex and Andy went to a movie and to lunch together, so it was a grand day overall!!

October in review - not in order....cuz I'm lazy
My 2 kids at a corn maze for a field trip....accompanied by 2 random children who wouldn't move.
Not sure which is more frightening...the kids faces or the pumpkins?
Proud Alex.
Weenie roast at the Cook pumpkin patch.
The crew at the pumpkin patch.
Checkin' out the buffalo that belong to the crazy, old, rich dude.
The last picture of us as a family in our old house!! I love this photo!

Another random update
So, let's see....where to begin....Ahhhhh, yes, sickness! Samantha and Alex have been sick for like 2 weeks and we have all just about had it!! Samantha still has the annoying, lingering cough, but is feeling much better overall. Alex still had a fever this morning (his 3rd day of fever) but is napping right now and I'm fairly confident that he'll wake up feeling better. If he still has a fever tomorrow morning I am going to take him into the doctor. They are sweet little troopers though!
The house hunting is still in full swing. We have offers out on 5 homes, all of which are short sales. Of course, we haven't heard back on any of them yet, but it is comforting just to know we have some options out there trying to do something!! We are going to see 3 more homes today and the kids are dreading it!! I think they will be super excited when we finally get locked on a home. For now though we are doing well at Grandma and Grandpa's. The kids are enjoying the space and it really feels like home for now.
I just discovered that I need to take my midterm for my Independent Study course in a testing center and that angers me! It means the test is closed book and I will really have to study! What's up with that??? I am also really wanting to expand my cookie business and really go for it, but honestly, I don't have the time right now! I'm not sure why I think it's a good idea, but the "project" part of it sounds like a lot of fun! I will probably do a little here and there but not fully go for it until we are settled in the new house. Whenever that may be!!!
I'm pretty sure Andy is still basking in the wonderfulness of being out of school!! I sure love it! He is keeping busy finding homes for us to look at and playing video games when he can. And dreaming of a family vacation next year. Good luck to that!!!
That's about all I can think of right now. I am looking forward to the next week when we find out if Kami is having a boy or a girl. We keep calling the baby "she" in the hopes that if it is a boy, the penis will drop off. Not that we don't love boys, because we do, but another girl would rock! Kami needs to share in the joy of the female hormones just like me and Richele!!
I love this picture of all of the kiddos at the pumpkin patch. Plus one extra - Corbin who is Nicole's 2nd cousin. (is that right, second cousin??)
