Zip, zip, zip...



Yeesh, I cannot keep up with my blog.  I dream up blog posts all the time...but actually sitting down at the computer to compose said post and add pictures is proving to be IMPOSSIBLE!

Oh well, my children are fed and clothed (most of the time).

We went back over to the peninsula today to welcome home a missionary.  This young man was our family's home teacher when we lived in Redwood City and we know his parents and family well.  Seeing all of our old peninsula friends was like coming home.  I felt like I was hugging my parents each time I was greeted with warm smiles from these old friends.  It was awesome.

I am up to my armpits in Halloween costume stuff.  If you follow me on Pinterest I have a new board with all of the kids costume ideas.  The child giving me the most grief--Wyatt.  He wants to be Gandalf.

Gandalf the White.

Heaven help me--literally, heaven has to help because all of my work-ups are looking very Godly.  I don't want my son confused for deity at the school parade--I don't think it will be received well.  For a week Wyatt thought about being another character from Lord of the Rings but went back to Gandalf last Tuesday.  I bought 3 yards of white fabric on Saturday so we are sticking with Gandalf.  Heaven help me.

Alright, now I am going to dump a bunch of back dated posts with super-clever writing to wrap up summer, start school and get caught up.  (Only to let the blog go to pasture for another two months.  See you after Christmas.)

A random picture of Colter.  He is blowing on a spider web on the leaf.  I don't know where he got the idea to blow on spider webs but there you have it.  He is a genius--clearly.
