Halloween Carnival and Piano Recital


We went to a Halloween Carnival with the Gilberts on Friday. It was very fun, and afterwards we got to hear Katie and Josh play cool Halloween songs in a recital. It was great!

What a cute shark!

You would think that with all of those teeth he could just bite that thing right off.

Alex was quite the fishershark

Isn't being a mom great? Our pockets were full of cookies and unwanted candy. Kristi's pocket even had stuff on the outside, ewww.

Ouch, my eyes!

Hey guys I had some laser eye surgery on Friday, and it's been a killer weekend! Unfortunately I couldn't get the Lasik procedure done because I have thin corneas. So I had to have a different procedure called PRK instead. The main difference between the two is that with PRK they don't cut the cornea and pull it back before doing the laser procedure. Instead they basically scrape off the top layer of the eye and then use the laser. So needless to say I was in severe pain for a few days after having that done. I'm feeling better now, but I still can't see very well so forgive me if I typed something wrong. I wont be seeing well for about 3 weeks. But I am excited!

Frankentreats

I found this cute idea in a magazine, so tonight we made them. They are called Frankentreats, and they are rice krispie treats covered in green, white chocolate, yum. They were fun and we took some to Mark's sister's house to share.


The guy on the left has had a head injury or something because his right pupil is pretty big!

We have a yard!

We finally finished our yard this year, and I wanted to put some before and after pictures on, but I can't find the before pictures so you just get the afters. Just imagine the after pictures with no rocks or grass and you've got it.


We are so glad to finally have grass! We do have a pretty small backyard though, but it's ok.

Photo Tag

I am glad this tag came along because my camera is lost right now, so I haven't been posting much! So what you do is you go to your pictures and go to the 6th file, then open the 6th subfile (if there is one), then post your 6th picture in that file. Here is the picture I got.

It's me, Pom Pom, Alex, and my mom at Alex's baby blessing. I think Alex looks very dapper in his white tuxedo!
