We are so Thankful!

Well Braxton got to take another trip to the ER last weekend. He is okay!

We decided to decorate for Christmas early this year since we won't be around for very long. We have all our decorations in our crawl space. Braxton decided he was board decorating so he went to get his snow clothes to shovel the driveway. When he went to get his clothes out of the closet I heard a scream,"Mom!" followed by panick. I thought he tripped and fell on some clothes. I was wrong, I had left the trap door to the crawl space open with no light on. He fell 10 feet onto his back. He immediately got up and climbed the ladder up. I probably shouldn't have let him do that, I think I was in shock as well. He was hurting pretty bad and we were concerned about any damage that may have been done to Nate took him in and for the next 5 hours hung out at the ER. After X-rays and doctors we found out he is just fine. Very sore, but bones are intact and very little bruising.

Happy Halloween






We had a fantastic Halloween! Of course the theme at our house was Star Wars. I hope that will change some day. A mom can dream. As for now I am just going with it. I decided to dress up, yes, I am Darth Vader. The kids thought it was great. We had gourmet pizza's at our friend's Dave and Heather's, she is an amazing cook. Their daughter Lauren was Leia, their son Carson was a Lion. Our other friends Jesse and Brook were there with their two boys were Boba Fett and Buzz.
After dinner we went Trunk-or-treating it was 22 degrees, the boys had their snow suits on, Brax had a big puffy winter coat on, as did most the kids, it was hard to tell what they were.

Happy Halloween!
