Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!





Last Saturday Gina and I took Peyton to the church costume party. Peyton had a pretty good time. Here are a couple pictures of her in her Witch costume. They decorated cookies, Peyton didn't care much about decorating, she just wanted to eat the cookies.

The kids gathered together to do a Mad Libs game and Peyton just dances around to the scary music and picked on the other kids. In this picture she is messing with the girls face painting that she just had done, the poor girl went to her mom to check on her face painting, Peyton wrecked it!! The lady doing face painting was busy all night.


We carved pumpkins last night, Peyton wasn't as into it and Cam and I were hoping.
She still enjoyed it though.

Addition to the Family


Well, isn't this fun. Helping mom scrub the floors was a hightlight for Peyton on Saturday. She likes to dust too!! Not sure where that came from, everyone know that I simply do not dust!

Scrubbing the floor with the towel.


This is how mommy does it!



Boring! I am putting my hands in that water instead of that rag!


Ooh! The floor is all wet and slippery. Wiping with my hands feels kind of neat!

Yee Haw, this is fun. I am just going to scrub the floor with my clothes, screw the rag!

Ok - It has been awhile since I actually took some time to write something useful in this blog. So here I am, at work, swamped, but I am going to take the time.

Last weekend Peyton helped me scrub the kitchen floors. I rung her clothes out when I was done, but doesn't she look proud!!

This morning I took Peyton in for the first of two flu shots and a finger prick for a lead level and hemoglobin test. The finger prick was not fun. Peyton was so confused about this red stuff coming out of her finger, she seemed scared. She would look at me with a look of what the heck is going on here! Hemoglobin tested fine, waiting on the lead test. If she has lead in her body it will all go to her feet, knowing this family, she will have a lead foot. Ha ha, okay, desperate attempt at a laugh.
So we got a new puppy last night. Peyton's cousin, Brittany, got the puppy a week ago and now she has no home for him to stay so we adopted him. He is a Rot with a mix of something unknown. Doesn't matter, he is cute and fun. Peyton loves him, till he jumps up to get that toy (Nuk) out of her mouth. She isn't too hot on that. He is around 6 weeks old.

Petie wasn't too sure what to think when he played the macho dog and then the puppy jumped back at him! Petie was afraid of him!!
Sniff, sniff - ooh, I gotta let this little guy know that I am bigger than him and I AM the boss around here.

Oh - he wants to play! Well, I am much bigger than he is, I know he will back off.


Crap! He bit my nose! Sometimes size doesn't matter!!

We call him "The Bandit"! Petie and the Bandit!

I hope this goes well, we wanted to get Peyton a puppy but we wanted her to be old enough to pick out her own and help take care of it.

You just never know what life will bring you! Now Brittany might visit us more often too, we all win in this one. Except Petie, poor guy may get beat up by a puppy! AND Peyton may lose a couple of shoes in this adventure.

Ride Em Cowgirl!

Yee Ha. Grandma Rita bought this rocking horse for Peyton at a garage sale a month ago and she loves it!

Playing in the rain puddles. Taking after her Dad!!

Here is a picture at the Renaissance Festival a couple of weeks ago. It was a really hot day, but we still had a good time. I still can't believe I finally got Cam to actually go!! Grandma Lois and Peyton were playing in the water. Of course when I tried to play I got yelled at! Huh, just my luck.

The hog roast went well. We had a pretty good turnout. I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and Thank You for stopping by!

Jo and Peyton kept sneaking off, I caught them in the act.

Ooh, nice butt!! Again, taking after her Dad!
