Black Island Farms

Thanks to Amber she invited me and Clint to this Black Island Farms for the kids. The girls ended up having a ball they got to go on all different types of slides and take a ride on the cow and pig train. We actually got a little ride. It definitely was a good adventure for the kids even though it was freezing cold. Dakota was turning blue from being so cold but she definitely threw a fit when we had to leave she was having way to much fun. Every time we would send her down a slide she would just start giggling and then stand up and say, "SLIDE". That meant she wanted to go again and again and again. Even Clint couldn't get enough of the slides. As you can see in some of the picture's he was having fun himself so maybe it's just not for little kids it for big kids also. Ha Ha!

Thanks Amber for inviting us. The girls had a GREAT time.

Halloween Party

Well the girls had there Halloween Parties last Thursday at there's school's. They both got to dress up and have a good time. After school was out Kassidee was telling me everything that she got to do that day it was so cute. The expression on her face was worth seeing. Makayla was excited but not near as much as Kassidee. All she said is that she had fun walking from class to class and letting everyone see her custome. I guess you can say that was a lot of fun. The games were what I enjoyed when I was a little girl.

Makayla was my MISS HIPPIE

Kassidee was my little MISS SPIDER WITCH! I guess you can say that Kassidee tried to look a little evil but I don't know if she quite got that look.

And Dakota was feeling a little left out that morning so she decided to grab a Cowboy hat.

So that morning she was my little MISS COWGIRL in her jammies of course. But man did she look so cute.

Pumpkin Patch

Today was an adventure to the Pumpkin Patch for Kassidee and Me. (Fieldtrip time.) Kassidee has been talking about this day all week long. She woke up every morning and said to me "Mom, is today the day that we get to go to the Pumpkin Patch and pick out Pumpkin's. Of course my reply was not today Monkey. Well finally as you can see we made it there this morning. She kept telling me that it was taking way to long to get there but you only can drive so fast.
Kassidee could not just pick one out for her, she thought about her two other sister's while we were there. She also wanted one for Clint and I but I told her there was no way I could lift 4 pumpkin's by myself. I guess you could say that thought is what counts. That's Kassidee for you always thinking of others. Sweet Girl! She loved the hayride and picking out the pumpkin's.

First Pumpkin of the day.

The weather was great today it was prefect for the hayride. I love spending time with just Kassidee she has such a funny sense of humor, she definitely keeps you smiling threw out the day.

Preschool

Well me and Clint thought long and hard about putting Kassidee in Preschool this year. Well I guess you can see that our decision was to put her in. We are hoping that it will help with her pronunciation, she has a hard time with a few letters. When I told her on Sunday that she will be going to preschool she was so excited. The first thing that popped out of that little girls mouth was "Mom can I go get me a Strawberry Shortcake backpack." I told her if we can find one. As you can tell in the picture that there was no luck we had to go with DORA. But she was still excited because it has wheels. Oh, she does have a Strawberry Shortcake folder though.

Here is Kassidee waiting to go to School all excited with the DORA backpack.

Kassidee in the class room waiting for all the kids to arrive. She was a little shy but I hope that will change as the school year goes on.

Her Teacher (Stacey McBride) introducing her to the class today. I think this is when her nerves started kicking in because after she was introduced she ran straight to me. But surprisingly she did really well I told her that it was okay, that she can have lots of fun and I'll see her in a little bit.

I'm so proud of Kassidee! I hope that she does this good everyday and her nerves don't get the better of her. I love you Kassidee, GREAT JOB!

8 Years!

Well today is our 8th year anniversary, man how the time fly's bye! I remember the day like it was yesterday. I went threw the temple for the first time on 9-11-2001 and was then married two days later on 9-13-2001 on my dad's birthday. So I don't think I will have a hard time remembering those two days. This was the greatest day of my life when I got to be sealed for time and all eternity with my one and only true companion! Over the past 8 years my love for Clint has grown so much, he is my best friend. I'm thankful for the friendship that we have and our 3 beautiful girls that we have. I LOVE YOU CLINT FROM HERE TO ETERNITY! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

PUSHNG BUTTONS!

Well the past two weeks have been kinda crazy with Kassidee. I think that she is trying to push my buttons as hard as she can and man has it been working. Last Monday when Makayla attended school I think that Kassidee was trying to come up with some crazy idea's. That's when later that day I found her bedroom a complete unbelievable mess with water and baby powder. The two products combined are not the greatest, if you could only imagine. (sorry no picuture, I don't think I want the memory of that mess again.) All I kept asking myself is how in the heck she came up with this idea in the first place. Then this week rolled around and I was cleaning the house on Tuesday and then all of a sudden I see water dripping for the heater vent in the basement, at first I was like where is this water coming from then I remember that I gave Kassi a drink of water early. I guess you could say that she didn't want it anymore because it was definitely all gone down the vent. Maybe she was trying to clean it out or something I still don't know, she still hasn't came up with a reason WHY? Then last but not least she had a squeeze it drink later on and I guess you could say that she was sick of it because she dumped it in the garbage and then all over my kitchen floor. Those drinks are definitely sticky, sticky not fun to clean up, you have to mop about 10 times just to get all the sticky gone. So what can I say what an adventure for the past two weeks.

Well any way's I don't want to complain but I do have a point to this unbelievable trial. Last Sunday I attended sacrament by myself and I got to sit and actually listen to every one's testimony, it was really nice. (this was the week when the baby powder incident happened) So me as a mom sitting down listening to some people in a ward talking about there trial's and what they are going through I just thought I should feel pretty lucky for all the blessings that I have received from my Heavenly Father instead of always looking at what has went wrong every week. I know that Kassidee is going to be my trial for a little while and maybe it is because I need to spend some moments with just her, she needs that time with her mom but then again I could be wrong she is a complete daddy's girl. Maybe she needs sometime with her daddy instead. Ha Ha! I feel that she want's some attention because Makayla is going to school and she doesn't want her to go because she doesn't want to lose her best friend. Who knows but I do love her but man what an adventure this will be.

MY BUTTON'S ARE DEFINITELY BEING PUSH BUT I GOT TO STAY STRONG!
