Happy Halloween!!!

Anyone that knows me, knows that I LOVE Halloween!! Andrew does too, so that makes it even more fun for me!! Morgan didn't really remember very much about the holidays last year-except for Santa Claus of course...But this year is gonna be fun for sure!! She gets the whole idea of dressing up and saying trick-or-treat! Anything with candy gets her attention! And-- Emily is starting to walk, so she is going to be so cute!!

Morgan is going to be Jasmin from the movie Aladdin, and Emily will be a bumble bee!!

I carved the one with the wolves and Andrew did the witch one!

Oh and in case you notice the pink base trim, it's the original color from when we moved in and we haven't painted yet. Andrew just put up the crown moulding and we plan on getting to it when he gets back, hopefully!! We made a lot of improvements on the house since we moved in. I hope that we will be able to redo the kitchen and bathrooms one day....

I will post some better pics up after tomorrow.

Happy Halloween!!!

our new truck

We just got a new truck yesterday and we love it! It's so perfect for us. We have been needing a truck to haul stuff with for a long time, and this truck is great. It's amazing to me how much room there is in the back. We have 2 car seats and an adult could sit comfortably between both. We thought it would be more on gas, but it's actually around the same or better than the Expedition that we had. So this is perfect! It was so nice to ride in a new truck. Our Expedition was already 10 years old and it had 170,000 miles on it. I'm glad we traded it in before we had to do a major repair.

Yay!

pics from our Disney trip

We had a great time in Disney World! We met my dad over there and we spent 4 days at Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios. This time was more of a learning experience, I guess, because we had no idea how much there was to see in so little time. Next time we will definitely plan it better now that we know what to do.
But, all in all, it was an awesome vacation, and I got to to spend time with my dad.
What was so crazy is that I had the camera and the video camera cleared out and charged up, ready for pictures, and we left it in the car at the airport!! We were so upset about that so we ended up buying a cheap digital camera. It took awful pictures but these were the best ones I found. But my dad took lots of pictures also, so I'll be getting those from him soon.
It was a lot of fun for both of the girls, which was surprising since Emily is still a baby! They both loved meeting the characters and watching the live shows. We also all rode the little slow rides- It's a Small World, The Flight of Peter Pan, The Haunted Mansion, The Pirates of the Caribbean, safari @Animal Kingdom, and things like that.
I'm just so happy that my dad got to bond with Morgan. I hope that we get to go many more times as my girls grow. They've got so many things to do with each age group, so each time will be a different experience.

The Girls

Where do I start? They're a handful, LOL!!!! But they are a blessing in our lives. I couldn't ask for more. It's funny that it's only been 2 years, but I almost forgot what it was like before them!!! I mean, I really couldn't imagine waking up every morning without Morgan (my alarm clock) ready to eat her oatmeal.....or going through the day without the sounds of Mickey Mouse or Dora on tv...doing anything without Emily attached to my hip!...or going anywhere without a fully prepared diaper bag! What did I do with my time before my babies came into my life?

My life is more complete than it has ever been! I have more purpose and I feel so loved and wanted. It's so great to be a mom!
