{ mary's reception }

Yay to Mary and John! They got married in Utah last week and then came to Maine for a fun reception at the Italian Heritage Center. Doesn't her hair look great!? *wink* Oh, and doesn't Gail and Laura's hair look great too?! *wink* *wink*!I'm so excited for Mary and John...Aren't they a GORGEOUS couple??

{ love this. }

Yay! My new necklace from Queen Bee Designs by Amanda came in the mail today! It's sooo cute! It's hard to see in this picture (I took it on my macbook so it's reversed too!) but my boys names are on the silver discs. Caleb on the biggest disc, Jordan on the middle, and Tanner on the little disc.
p.s. Karinne, do you like it? 'Cuz I got you one for Christmas! But with your kiddos names instead, duh!

{ oh baby. }

Last night (and tonight!) we went to visit my friend Beccie who just had her fourth baby!! Arihanna is soooo precious...and tiny! Jordan and Tanner were fighting who got to hold her next. Every time she moved or sqeaked Jordan would say, "Awwwww". When we got home Tanner asked me if I could go to the hospital and get a baby taken out. If only it was that easy!

{ halloween party }

Every year we throw a big bonfire/halloween party and every year Caleb wants it scarier and scarier! This year I decided to throw two seperate ones so the little boys wouldn't be so scared. So Saturday we had a party for Jordan and Tanner and their friends. It was during the day and we had games, decorated pumpkins, went on a hayride, and had a pinata! Tanner really wanted to be a "John Deere driver" so I made a John deere tractor out of a box (cheapest halloween costume ever)! Jordan is very shy and didn't want to dress up, he told his friends he was a "breakdancer" (haha! another cheap costume!) It was a very fun day!

{ mgm grand }

We had a FABULOUS weekend at the MGM Grand in Foxwoods, Conn.  Grammie got Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana) VIP tickets for the kiddos.  They had a blast!  Caleb got pictures of the concert on his phone, but I haven't imported them yet. It was so fun to go down there and relax and spend time with family.  For some weird reason I can't upload any more pictures. Arggh. I'll try to post more tomorrow.

{ shy boy }

Jordan got off the bus today with only one shoe.  I had Jessica our babysitter get him off the bus today because I went out to lunch with Shakira (Costa Vida, YuMMm!).  When I asked him what happened to his shoe he told me he accidently kicked it off while he was sitting on the bus and he was too scared to get off his seat to get it from under the seat in front of him.  "Seat to seat, rear to rear. Remember, Mom?"  He told me. (That's what the teachers say to get the kids to stay in their seats.) 

Last week the bus flew right past the bus stop. I started freaking out and cal

led the Bus Garage.  They contacted the driver and he said he didn't even know Jordan was on the bus and Jordan hadn't spoken up when he pa

ssed the house.  My poor child was terrified! I had to chase the bus because they can't turn around!

Anywho, here's a picture of Shakira, baby Kiara, and me at lunch...
