September 2013
We started September with a bought of head lice. This was our first time ever getting them. It was ridiculous and I cried many times as I was having to go through their long blonde hair to dig the little suckers out. I ended up chopping Kinsley's hair off. It was her first haircut.
8 Weeks pregnant and my baby looks like an alien tadpole...LOL.
Katie's first spirit day at school.
October 2013
We've waited 3 years for The Bears to play the Indians near our house. We may be Bears by day, but we're Bulldogs by night and Indians by blood. My kids were so confused on who to cheer for.
Katie with her sign. The Bears won and daddy's heart was broken.
Carving pumpkins and stickerin' them up.
Storybook Character Parade at school. Katie is Little Red Riding Hood and I'm Skeleton Hiccups.
Halloween at school was ridiculous. We had a bad storm blow in and were under a tornado warning. We spent 45 minutes under our desks. Not fun!
Getting ready for Trunk or Treat at church.
At church playing games. I swear Katie never smiles in public.

We got to find out what our bundle of joy was going to be. This is the survey my co-workers did at school.

Time to put up the tree!
The day after Thanksgiving, my family got to see Dustin's headstone for the first time. I was so honored to have a part in creating it. My hubby did a fantastic job.
The back of his headstone is beautiful!
