The kids have picked out want they want to be for Halloween and since I have to make four this year, I thought we would get started. Especially since I only have 10 weeks left, give or take, I might not be feeling up to it in a few weeks. So this is what the munchkins have picked out:
Dallin the green power ranger.
And the new baby will be Charlie Brown! Too Cute!
Today we celebrated Rich's 31st Birthday! I don't think he is very happy about turning 31, and I don't know why 31 was more hard than 30???? But I wouldn't know since I'm still in my 20's!!!! :)We celebrated by having Rich's favorite dinner ever: Anna's Pizza! I don't know what they put in their sauce but it is the best!
This was one of the gift he got from his mom, so everyone had to try it!

Happy Birthday Babe!! We love you!!
A week after Jillian's third birthday, we got her pictures taken. She loved the spot light on her. She did everything the photographer asked her to do and when we were finished she cried because she wanted to do more! We love our strong, confident little Jillie!! When I was putting the new photo in the picture frame, the past years are behind it, and I can't believe how much she has changed! She was so chubby and had the fattest ankles and wrists. She now speaks her mind on everything and thinks she's the boss! She is incredibly sweet and loves the baby in my belly. She tells me everyday "the baby's got to get bigger". She is just so smart!
We made it all the way there and back in one piece! It was actually a great trip. The kids were soooooo good in the car and loved staying in the hotel! Kids get so excited about hotels. We had a wonderful time at Nana's house. We got to relax, eat great food, and spend time with Nana. My mom goes all out for the kids and holiday's, and since she doesn't get to spend very many holidays with the us, she planned for us to have Christmas, St. Patrick's Day, Easter and 4th of July. The kids loved it.
Christmas Morning!
St. Patrick's Day
4th of July
For the 4th of July we went to a Toledo Mudhens game and watched to fireworks at the stadium! When we lived in Toledo we got to go to two games and really enjoy them, so it was great to get to go again. While in Toledo we got two of our favorite foods: Boneless chicken wings from The Wing Spot andChile Mac from Sylvaina Diner, they were so good.

We also got to go to a llama farm (which was my favorite part of the trip). It was the most well maintained farm I have seen. It was beautifully landscaped and they had a gorgeous koi pond and garden. They also had about 15 barn cats and that's all the kids cared about. Leanne and Jillie were in heaven.

The weather was one of the best parts! The highs all week long were 68- 70 degrees. And at night it was so cool we slept with the windows open. That rarely happens in Florida. With the cool weather the kids were able to play at the park and swing on a swing in Nana's backyard that her friend made for the kids. They spent most of their time out there when we were just relaxing.
Rich grilling! Yummy!

This was the first time my kids rode a merry go round!
Kids beds with their blankets and pillows Nana made for them!
Thank you Nana for everything, you made the trip awesome!
