October 2010

 Lacey took the camera and had a great time.  She took so many I definitely can not share them all.  She is so fun to have around.  She keeps me laughing.  She wanted to take one of the two of us so here it is.

 Magen celebrated her 7th birthday on 10-10-10.  She was so excited.  I bought her 10 presents to go along with the day.  She didn't want anything big so it worked out o.k.  She is such a fun loving girl.  She is so sweet.  She had a great two days.

James had to build a bottle rocket for his CTE class.  It had to hold an egg and try and keep it from cracking or smashing when launched.  It survived the first launch but not the second.  It also got ran over by a car after that.  Rick and James made a rubberband cage to hold the egg.  It was really cool.

 Caden had a consumer fair where they compare different brands of the same product to see which is the better buy.  He compared different brands of marshmallows.  He counted out each bag and found that jet puff had the most per bag.  They also were one of the cheapest brands that we bought.  There were over 800 in the bag.

M agen had a friend party for her birthday.  It was a pet shop party we had many crafts for them to do.  One they had to come up with their own bunny body and decorate it.  They were all so creative and they turned out really cute.  She did not want a birthday cake she wanted a treat platter.  She is so funny on what had to be on there.

 Over fall break the boys went to friends houses so the girls had a treat picnic in the back yard. We gave them all kinds of things including a fruit bowl.  They thought it was so cool to be able to take treats out and to put blankets on the lawn to sit on too.  They had so much fun outside all afternoon.  I love that they enjoy being together.

Lacey had to decorate this paper doll in a costume for school and take it back.  We had a great time all afternoon decorating her.  We had lots of sparkle and cute brads.  She loved the gold crown and all the sparkle.  She is very picky about not enough sparkle on things.  She loved it and was sad to take it to school until she found out that she would get it back to play with.
