Halloween
















It's a wee bit late! I hope everyone had a spook tackler Halloween! We went to a Halloween party hosted by our friends they did a wonderful job putting it together. We are so glad we were invited. Thanks for all your hard work it was amazing they went all out with decorations and food prep it was very cute and creative. We had lots of fun and way too much to eat. Then the kids went trick or treating with about 20 other kids from the party it was Hilarious to watch. I don’t know where kalee learned this song but as she and a couple other kids were walking they were singing “trick or treat smell my feet give me something good to eat, if you don’t, I don’t care I’ll pull down your underwear. I thought it was very funny. We had to have a little talk about how we didn’t say those things. After I stopped laughing that she was singing that in the first place. Kalee was the silver mist fairy I glittered her all up and she loved it. Lily was a cutest witch I have ever seen, then again I am biased. Clark was a pilot just like his Daddy and a cute one at that. Clark wore Joel’s work patches he was so hansom.

JOEL'S HOMECOMING





Joel got back from his deployment. The kids and I were so excited to have him come home. He was just about the last one off the plane, I guess pilots get off last anyway. I barley recognized him, his hair was buzzed and he had lost some weight (not that he need to lose any) but gained some muscles! I was so glad to see him walk of that plane. It is amazing knowing that we have the missing part of our family back. He looked really good, and he had the biggest smile, which made it so much easier not to cry. It was so great to see how happy he was to see us. I had imagined just running and jumping in his arms but that didn’t happen, his squadron was there to greet him and they were all lined up. He was about to shake the someone’s hand when the girls cut them off and ran and jumped in daddy’s arms, it was so precious. He got back on October 21St, I made his favorite cookies and had all his favorite meals on hand to make. We have adjusted to him being home and vise versa. Clark went to daddy but was a little skeptical at first, however after just 2 hours of being with him he is now attached and has been ever since. He loves his daddy very much! We have just been spending time together as a family and that’s why no blogging has been done. I’ll try to keep up from now on.
