All right.......back in August we went to visit our Mimi in Abilene. The kids were very excited when they found a ton of caterpillars crawling all over Mimi's parsley and chives. So excited that they wanted to bring some home with them. I have to admit, I was not happy about transporting 3 caterpillars across Texas, but I do love my kids! The caterpillars spun cocoons after about two weeks of domestic bliss in our household. Here is a shot of one of the butterflies after hatching from his cocoon. We all got a kick out of the process and letting it go was really cool! I am thinking maybe tadpoles/frogs next!



Here is a quick picture of Jaxon's pumpkin. He had to decorate a pumpkin for school. The rules stated that he could not put any holes into the pumpkin itself because it would be on display in the school rotunda for a month. He chose the concept and I helped him bring it into existence.Funny how it resembles our dogs, huh?!

We had GRANDPARENTS BREAKFAST at school!!!!!

Kaki and Hachie came out at a very early 6:30 in the morning to enjoy breakfast and meet the teachers.



Jaxon earned his first belt loop and patch in cub scouts. His loop is for Geography and he got his transportation patch. He also is helper of the month!

We went to the Transportation museum at the beginning of the month. Jaxon and Skye learned about trains and even got to ride on one.

I really like how this baby shower cake turned out so I thought I would share it with everyone. I think my skills are getting better. I will say that I sculpted the baby and blanket all by myself. Woo-Whoo





The reason Jared became a cheerleader!!!

Well, a picture speaks a thousand words!

Need I say more?!
