Happy Birthday Morgyn 2011

 Yesterday was Morgyn's 15th birthday. She was surprised to come home to the house decorated for her birthday. Her brothers shot off some confetti poppers over her head. She really liked that!

 She didn't want a cake for her birthday. She wanted brownies with ice cream and hot fudge sauce instead.

The hot fudge sauce was homemade from a friend's recipe. It was way yummy, but I think I cooked it a little to long because it was a little too thick. For her recipe click here.                             

 She was so happy to get a water bottle like mine. It keeps water cold all day. Even in the summer :)

 She also got a new pair of pants.

 Because she is 15 and needs to get her learners permit, we felt that it was fitting to get her a Drivers Handbook. She has to pass a written test before she can get her learners permit!

 She has wanted the Hymns on CD for a long time. Now she has them!

Her dad even burned all the songs she downloaded onto CD's for her.

All in all I think she had a fun day. She even went to young womens and made carmel apples! FUN!

Halloween 2011

We carved pumpkins in the afternoon.

I was so happy Halloween was so warm this year. We didn't even need to wear jackets! I think the 2 little ones even got to warm.

 Jacob was a Knight. He was trying to have the attitude of a Knight fighting a battle. He was in a really good mood, not cranky like these pictures portray!

 Jared was Goodnight Bear. He had to have his face painted blue like Isaac's.

 Isaac was Sully from Monsters Inc.

John was a Ninja Turtle.

Morgyn was Anubis. Anubis is a character from the TV show Stargate SG1, her favorite show. It even added to the costume when the flash reflected off her glasses and made here eyes glow.

The whole gang ready to go!
