We had lots of fun on Halloween! Look at these great looking kiddos! We had some friends over to eat pizza and trick-or-treat with us. Now I need someone to take away all this candy before I gain 10 pounds!!!

Free stuff coming soon...

Starting Monday, I am going to start up a new weekly post on my Santa Clara Design Blog! "Monday Freebies" - hopefully I'll come up with a better name by then. It'll be anything from free fonts that are really great to, free graphics, tutorials, photos, etc... I even plan to post some of my own work for free...

Anyway, I hope to post cool free stuff each Monday, so stay tuned!

This morning, Katherine is walking around the house saying,

St. Mary's Dedication Mass

Click this photo to go to my flickr page. There are more St. Mary's pics there. It was a beautiful Mass, with 2 Bishops, tons of priests and 4 rather rowdy children (not MINE, of course!).

The Church looked awesome. We even got to see them dedicate the altar, place relics of St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Dominic. Then Bishop Aymond took his time smearing the new altar with a whole pitcher (I'm sure there is a fancier name for is) full of Chrism oil.

Go Aggie Catholics! Check out their site to see what's new: www.aggiecatholic.org

first day of school 2008, two weeks late.

Aren't they CUTE!? And BIG!?

I have seen articles on "blog etiquette". I have purposely NOT read them, because I am sure it says something about not posting 3 blog posts in one day.

If I didn't post all these at once, they'd never get up!

So, you'll have to put up with me!! :)

Thankfully the elephants didn't notice that her shirt was on backwards! You can't really tell here, but when you see the little buttons and bow on her back, it's pretty obvious.

She said there were elephants playing on our swing set. So, we watched them.

real life funnies

Setting: Car, on the way to a doctor appointment on Labor Day. Kids squealing, poking each other, getting in each other's "space", etc... Lots of NOISE.

Katherine, in her little, sweet, high pitched voice: "I don't like ANYBODY in this car!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Later that day...

Setting: Making a pie with Emelie while everyone else is sleeping or otherwise occupied.

I have light corn syrup on the counter with the other ingredients.

Emelie: "Mom, is this that high ferocious corn syrup? I hear that's really bad for you!"

I bet so!!

Gig 'em!


Curt took Jonathan to his first Aggie football game on Saturday (thanks for the tickets, Joe!) they had fantastic seats from which to watch our beloved Aggies make fools of themselves. But, being 6, Jonathan didn't seem to mind one bit!

Jonathan has had a hard time sleeping lately. His buddy at school told him that mummies are walking around Houston, TX. His friend thought this was funny. Jonathan, with his active imagination, is picturing them walking on over from Houston and into our neighborhood here in C.S. Poor guy!
