Yes, those were the days!

I was taking  groceries out to my car the other day and spotted this "way cute car"!!!!! I had to stop and take a picture!!!! Why???? Well, this was my car when I turned 16! (Well not the exact one but the same color, top, rack, and......well, just everything!) I remember going to my dad's for the weekend and he had a friend pull up in the car. My dad asked what I thought of it and of course I said is was way cool and I loved it. Little did I know that it was mine. He purchased it for my 16th birthday! When I drove it home the next day my mom was so mad. I don't know how it all worked out, but I got to keep it and had it for 4 years or so. Having that car got me a few tickets and my dad told me later that he knew if I decided to speed that I would get caught pretty quick. He was right. I have a ton of memories surrounding that car. I am glad  I spotted this car. I only have one old photo of me and my car.....and it is who knows where. For those of you the with me in the car........how did we live? We had a few crazy times in it didn't we!!!! Hmmmm....I am glad I have a few more years before Keaton learns to drive. I am going to freak!!!!

Creeeeepy! It's Halloween!

 Keaton didn't really know if he was going to dress up for Halloween this year or not. When all of his cousins decided to all go trick-or-treating together he decided HE WOULD. We through together a bunch of random costume stuff, and this is what we came up with.....a Creeeeepy lookin' something or another! He posed all creepy by a tree which made him look even creepier. Towards the end of the night he even had another mask on the back of his head, so he looked creepy from both sides.

This picture I just love. It is at the rec. center that I used to work at.  Carter is a Roman Soldier, Talon is Malfoy from Harry Potter, and Keaton is was just being himself that night : ) My boys had tons of fun! Each month for work someone was in charge of the Birthday bulletin. October was mine, so the fun tree in the background is what I made. Each doily leaf has a child's name and birthday on it.

This picture is also from the rec. center. Each year the rec. center puts on a fun night for the community for Halloween. Each department has a theme. We choose into the woods. Keaton needed hours for a scouts so I put him to work and the two of us created a  cute "Grandmothers house". It is actually like the fish pond game except for the kids would put a basket down the chimney and pull it up for their prize. Keaton was the on putting the prize into the basket : ) I was the "Wolf in G-mas clothes" and my coworker was a pig. It was a fun night!
