The best Halloween ever...2008!
















This has been one of the best Halloween's ever. We had so much fun. First Cache and I went to a Halloween playgroup party. We started getting all sugared up by eating lots of yummy treats. Then we went to a BBQ at our neighbors house, went trick or treating, then came home and ate chili and watched a scary movie with Sam and Annie. There was a lot of sugar and tons of fun. So our costume drama was that I had purchased Cache a skunk costume that was oh so cute and last night realized that it was going to be just way too hot so we took it back and looked and looked for another costume for 90 degree weather. After no luck searching for a cute costume the night before halloween we just decided to dress him up as a cowboy. He looked so cute and had such a blast. I think he really just loved the cowboy boots. The neighborhood next to us was like the Halloween mecca where almost every other house had lights, music, and great decorations. So many kids and so much for cache to look at.

So Many Shoes

My little guy is so obsessed with shoes. He goes into my closet pulls down all my shoes plays with them awhile then he will head into the mud room and pull down all of the shoes in there and play in them. I find shoes all over the house and as funny and cute as it is I am starting to go nuts. I am just hoping that he loves shoes enough that one day he becomes a fabulous shoe designer and makes his mommy amazing shoes. Such a cutie!

Growing up so fast

Now I know what most of you will think with the title of this post. Probably that I am going to go on and on about Cache and how he is just growing so quickly. How he copies everything I say and can sing song with me like Row Row Row your Boat or No More Monkeys Jumping on the bed. Maybe I would brag how he is so stinkin smart and can do little things when I ask him to, like going to his room and getting me a diaper. No, instead this post is going to be about Dave. He is just getting older so quickly. His 30th birthday came and went so fast. He is no longer a young hip 20 something person but now has to be a responsible 30 year old. Oh how the time fly's. Luckily I have a feeling he will always be young at heart. And soon enough another year will roll around and he will be 31. It is so sad to see them grow so quickly.


A young twenty something year old

I am in need of some help...

Ok so I know many of you do not live in Arizona but if you could help me I would appreciate it. I am doing a survey for one of my classes and I was hoping any of you reading this could answer just a couple questions. So there is a proposition trying to be passed in this Arizona upcoming election. It is Proposition 102 which would amend the Arizona Constitution to provide that only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state. This is currently the law in Arizona which it is in most states but it would become an amendment to the state constitution. I know most of you do not live in AZ but if this issue has not arose in your state I am sure it soon will.
1. Are you currently registered to vote?
2. Do you plan on voting in the upcoming presidential and local elections?
3. Would you vote yes to make this an amendment or no leave the law how it is?
Thank you all for your help!

Projects, projects, projects

So I have been working on all my projects for the past few weeks and am happy to say that a couple major ones have been finished. #1 Wallpapering a wall in Caches room. My two aunties came to help me a few weeks ago and we got half of the wall finished. Then a few nights ago it was my turn...alone. Lets just say it is not as easy as I thought it would be and good thing the curtains cover most of the pieces I hung. I do have to admit that I dont love the wallpaper now that it is all hung. I like it but not love. I really wanted some cool vintage stuff but everything I liked was alot of $$$$. #2 Finish making Caches curtains. OK so I got most of those done when I went to Utah but I hung the rod and got them up and now just need to hem them. Yeah! Those things took forever. Just need to do a few more things and his room will be done. #3 All my knobs on the cabinets are completed. Just now need to put on the pulls. Not as many drawers so that is a plus. So I still have lots of projects left but three major ones done and it feels good. So on another note, Cache loves playing in the backyard which I love because not previously having one makes me so grateful that there is a place to whare him out. He is so active and crazy. I can have the house completely cleaned in the morning and by the evening it is so trashed. We purchased a little potty for him to get used to and not make it scary for when we really start potty training. He loves it. Well I should say he loves to wipe his bum and wash his hands. His daddy also taught him how to pick his nose. I recentally put all his stuffed animals on the bottom shelf and whenever he feels something soft he wants to snuggle. So I caught him laying on the bottom shelf snuggling with all his stuffed animals. LOL. Oh and one last thing, the weather is so nice now. We can actually go outside and not sweat. It is even raining today...WOW!
