Tag, I guess I'm it now..........Thanks Terri

I am.....also very THANKFUL for a happy and Healthy FAMILY

I know.....that Africa is a CONTINENT.

I want....to take a vacation.

I have.....everything I need.

I dislike....working 40 hours a week...I'm marrying for money next time~~~

I miss.....the no-stress college life and all the great people I met there.

I feel....Blessed

I hear......Landon coughing (what else is new??)

I smell......nothing (unlike last night when I smelled gas and realized Landon had turned on our gas stove w/o my knowledge and I almost scorched my hair the next time I turned it on)

I crave.......Thanksgiving Dinner w/ my mom's famous mashed potatoes....YUM

I cry.....at sappy shows like "Extreme Makeover Home Edition"

I search........all the time for my work keys that I constantly misplace

I wonder......why I didn't go to school to be a doctor or a lawyer or a gold digger???

I regret.......the brat I was as a child. I have a feeling revenge as a mother will be quite sweet.

I love......my family, my friends, and TiVo.

I worry....all the time about Landon.. It drives Casey insane.

I remember.......nothing. I have no memory since I got pregnant 4 years ago.

I dance....with Landon in our house, other than that it would take massive amounts of alcohol.

I don't.....cook, clean, or work out as often as I should.

I argue.....with myself. I may be bi-polar.

I write....on post-it-notes a lot since I lost my memory.

I win.............WIN? What does that mean? Ask my sister, I LOSE ALL THE TIME.

I lose........any argument with my sister.

I wish......I won the POWERBALL so I could jet set all around the world w/ family and friends.

I listen......to a lot of country music.

I can usually be found.......at work or with Landon, both can be very stressful!

I am scared.....to death of people dying that are close to me.

I need......A VACATION.....

I forget........EVERYTHING

Cousin Chloe

This picture was taken at Chloe's baptism. Landon loves taking pictures holding Chloe, he thinks its such an important job. Don't you think he'd make a great big brother (don't read anything into that)??????

Trick or Treat, Smell my Feet (thanks aunt Terri)

Landon was KUNG FU PANDA for Halloween this year...I think it was a good choice because his other choice was Spiderman and I saw a million Spiderman's out but no other Kung Fu Pandas..Landon loved trick-or-treating. He especially loved reciting a Halloween poem that Aunt Terri taught him on a long car ride......he even called a few people to say Trick or Treat, Smell my Feet.....you know the rest. What I was amazed by was how much Cambridge gets into the Halloween spirit. In one area of town, there were TONS of kids out, and several people hauling decorated trailors behind their ATV's, dropping off kids and picking them back up.. A couple of them had oranage lights and hay bails on the trailors....it was like a huge neighborhood party. Also in this neighborhood are some die hard home owners that go all out, and I mean ALL OUT. They should be charging admission to see their house..These houses were more decorated than ANY house I've even seen decorated for any holiday, including christmas. They had oranage lights lighting up a path to the back yard where you could see a grave yard, they had people dressed up and hiding in places to jump out and scare you, and they had their garages completely transformed to some scary scenes (some too scary for Landon). They had witches handing out cider and aliens driving cars. It was like a haunted neighborhood. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen a neighborhood get together to do. The above pics. are with Mathew and Emily Sohn, who also passed out the coolest Halloween treats of the night.

Pumpkins

We almost forgot about carving pumpkins this year! A couple days before Halloween we realized we still needed to carve our pumpkins, so Landon picked out what he wanted his pumpkins to be and Casey and I carved away.. Landon chose a pretty simple smiley face for me to put on his "strawberry pumpkin", and he picked a Skeleton for Casey to carve. They both turned out well. Surprisingly, Landon wanted NOTHING to do with the guts of the pumpkin. He wouldn't stick his hands inside and get dirty....considering what a true "boy" he usually is I was pretty shocked by this.
