October Crazies!!

Well, well well. Looks like we're back in the saddle again. Life doesn't slow down on it's own, you have to put on it's brakes. So far, I think I need new brakes.

We started October with Jackie and Dave visiting, then Mom came in the next weekend. The next weekend, Johnna and Josh and to finish off, we just took Mom back to the airport this morning. Really, it all happens so fast sometimes I wonder if it really happens. Was it just a dream. No, it was real and it was good. Almost a full month of family and we would do it all again. Now we just need the other half of the family to come in for November. Bellistons, it's your turn? Are you ready? We are waiting!

Yes, little Jackie is having a baby. Another April baby in the family? We will just have to wait and see...

Speaking of babies, little Everett would have been 3 this year. Of course, all the 'what if's' come into my head and invade the little bit of quite time I have during the day. We put some beautiful flowers on his stone and of course, a Halloween decoration. I see Charlee and Baran play and every day I wonder what would have been. But I love what I have and without life's unexpecteds, we probably wouldn't have Charlee. She sure is a pistol, but we love her the same. Our hugs are just a bit tighter these days :o)

We will be dressing up for Halloween this year. The Kissels are throwing a Birthday/Halloween party - it'll be fun. I think Baran wants to be Spiderman, Hulk-smash, a cowboy ghost, or ???? Charlee might be a buzzy bee! Bryan and I are pulling out the old Nightmare Before Christmas costumes and once again will be Sally and Jack. Now to find a red wig so this year I don't have to spray my hair.
Baran said he wanted a super spooky house so, we obliged. We decorated the front of the house with black lights, spider-webs, grave markers and other ghoulish things, Bryan did a great job!

Well, peace out for now - Charlee just woke up from her nap! She needs some hugs-n-kisses!
