Memorial for G & G Larsen

Chloe (5 months), me, Paige, and my mom setting up the memorial for my Grandma and Grandpa Larsen at the house that they lived in for 11 years.

Halloween '09

Yes, we all did it this year!  And, I have to admit it was very fun!  Joe and I were both basketball players.  He was a throw back and I was really just free marketing.

My little flower.  She wanted out of that thing all night!

Me and my girl!

Carving pumpkins white trash style

Why is it necessary to carve pumpkins without a shirt on?

The finished products.  How cute are they?  Joe's hand was so tired!

So Kissable!

I just can't get enough of this little one!  I just want to squeeze her all day long!  Look at those cheeks and that button nose.  Don't you just want to pinch them?  Love her!

Birthday Suit

Even though it was Joe's birthday, Aidan thought he should be in his Birthday Suit.  Happy Birthday Daddy!

One rare moment

Today I took Carter and Aidan to see  Where The Wild Things Are (one of my favorite children's books) and it was just great!  And I had one really neat moment with Carter.  At the end of the movie when Max is leaving the Wild Things and returning home, I looked over at Carter and saw that he was crying.  After the movie was over he came over to me and gave me a big hug and was just sobbing.  I think he was a bit confused as to why he was crying.  I asked him why he was crying and he said that he was happy and sad that Max was able to get home and see his mom.  It just melted my heart and mad me cry as well.  I love that kid.  He holds such a special place in my heart.  Carter, thanks for giving me a wonderful moment today.  And a day to make me feel so proud to be your mom.
