Trunk or Treat

Our ward did a chili cook-off and a trunk or treat tonight and we had a lot of fun. Our chili won second place, although they had it labeled wrong and so they thought it was another family's chili. LOL! But we know in our hearts that we were the true second place winners. :)

Eli dressed up as a little Austrian boy (read: I didn't have it organized enough to get a costume for him beforehand, so we just put on the lederhosen that Nathan's mom got for him and called it good). He actually won second place for most original costume because the woman in charge said she had never seen any kid dress up in lederhosen before. :) Heehee. It certainly was a Lakey sweep night for the prizes, as Nathan won the "Guess the circumference of the pumpkin" contest. Man, we should have just stayed home in order to spread the prizes around for others! :)

Here are some pictures of Eli in his little outfit. They're not from tonight, because I was retarded and forgot my flash disk for my camera, but they're cute just the same.

Love you all!

Some Funny Faces

Aidan's Impression of Uncle Jeff....just kidding

I'm Shocked!

Stop Taking Pictures or I'll Make This Face !

Here are some of the pics I got of Aidan today. He is really a cute little guy. I'll be using one of these pics for his baby announcement....which one do you like best?

If you need a good laugh....

...then head on over to my blog and watch the JibJab video I made. It will have you rolling! :D

Just for you, Mom. I did this today without even realizing it, then had to take a picture. Love ya!

PS: Pay no attention to the really old nail polish. Yeah, I'm a mom, what can I say, I don't have time for that kind of thing very often. :)

Too Funny!

Yesterday I came in the house after taking out some recycling, and this is what I found:

I was so lucky to grab my camera and snap a few shots before he got tired of playing. He sure does make my life exciting! :)

Oh, and PS: Nathan comes home today!! He's been in Amsterdam for 2 weeks and I'm more than thrilled to have him home. It really is too long to be away. :) Okay, I'm cheesy, but it's true!

Back to work, slave lady!

Ok so I'm back at Lowe's. It sucks. It's a half an hour away, the people who work there are almost all over 30 and they are crude and have no tact and they are not friendly (everybody walks by and looks at me, knowing I'm new, and then continues on without saying hi or introducing themselves or welcoming me or anything), and the store is SO SLOW. No customers, ever. It makes the day crawl by and my feet and back hurt so bad at the end of my shift. I'm in hell. Also known as Ohio.
