2 Boars, 2 Dogs, & a Rat walk into a restaurant….

My cute parents came up for Halloween & spent the night. It was so fun having them over. Kaylee took a bit to warm up, but that’s to be expected. My mom decided to take us out to lunch (we never turn down free food;), & we had yummy Chinese. They had the Chinese Zodiac on the place mats, & we found out that my Dad & Jon are the dogs, Mom & I are the Boars, & Kaylee is the Rat. Fun trivia. Kaylee was so worn out she fell asleep on the way home. Thanks Mom & Dad. We love you!

There are different photos on my parents blog.

HaLloWeEn FuN!

We had lots of fun for Kaylee’s first Halloween. Jake & family, & my parents came over for a BBQ before our neighborhood trunk-o-treat. Kaylee didn’t know what to think she didn’t smile, but she didn’t cry (all the costumes) she just took it all in. I’m already looking forward to next year. She got 11 pieces of candy, it was mostly a fun photo op for me, although Jon & I both have had some of her stash. 😉

Jack’ee’s surprise

This last weekend was really fun. We had planned to spend time helping our friends Matt & Angie, but Jack’ee called (late Fri. night) & informed us of a surprise visit. So our morning was spent at the LeFevre’s, & Kaylee & I spent the afternoon & evening with Jack’ee at my parents house. Jon stayed with Matt to finish their bathroom addition (it looks so good). My hair was in desperate need of a good cutting, so while my hairstylist (Jack’ee) was in town I got a new do. Jack’ee had to cut half of it off just to get a brush through it. Anyway I think I lost 10 lbs. just by getting a hair cut. I was very happy to say goodbye to the rats nest. It took Kaylee a few days to get use to it (it was sort of funny). It was so nice to see Jack’ee even for a short visit. The last time we saw her was about four months ago. Kaylee has changed so much since then. Having Jack’ee visit reminded me how much Kaylee has grown. She’s a little person now. Oh & can I just point out that Jack’ee never gets to see the sun working graveyard, & I go on walks with Kaylee everyday, & I’m still pasty white (even with makeup) next to my sister. It’s no wonder Jon didn’t believe she was my sis. when I introduced them that fist time. He was expecting a white girl that looked like me. Arn’t genetics fun. 🙂 We are all so excited for January to see Auntie Jack’ee again.
