Just for fun

I just got a new digital editing program a few weeks ago, but haven't had a chance to play with it. But finally today Breanne is taking a nice long nap, so Mommy gets to have some play time of her own. Not too bad for an armature eh!? I am just so grateful that I get to be this little angel's Mommy. There is nothing in the world more gratifying than to get a hug, a kiss or an 'I love you berry berry much' from my Breanne. She means the world to me, and I am so glad I get to be her friend forever and always!

Halloween Happiness!

The whole month of October was very busy but very fun! My how time is flying by. Somedays I just want to freeze life (and my sweet daughter) so that she will never grow up and to keep holidays so magical! We started out the Halloween Season with a party at Grandma and Grandpa Jacobson's house. Breanne learned what 'Pumpkin Guts' are.
We also went to pick out our pumpkins in our traditional pumpkin patch. This is one of the reason's I love living in a farming community, it's so fun to see corn fields, tomato crops and most of all pumpkin patches! Breanne had to tap the pumpkins to see if it was a good one.

What can I say... She is just plain CUTE!

Breanne was off playing in the corn maze, so mommy and daddy snapped a quick picture.
A few days before Halloween we had a party at Grams and Pa's house. These sweet innocent looking cuties aren't so sweet and innocent after all! They went off into Gram's bathroom.. and well... TERRORIZED IT!!! They all got undressed (some had poopies on) got into Gram's make up and wiped it all over themselves and everything, put tissue in her sicks and turned them on till they were over flowing with water, got in the tub with hot water till the tub was overflowing too.. When we found them there was 3 inches of poopy water all over the floor.. what else can I say, you'd have to be there to believe it! Where were their mothers!! :-) I don't think they will be on the 'Nice' list for Christmas this year... (at least not on Grams and Pa's) Thanks Grams and Pa for putting up with our 2 year olds!
Traditional stew in pumpkin bread bowls and homemade root beer.. YUM!
There's the the Terrible Trio again.. eating doughnuts.
Back in July when we went to Jackson Hole Breanne fell in love with horses.. It was then that I decided she had to be a cow girl for Halloween. So Grandma and I went to the fabric store (which happens to be one of our favorite stores) and shopped for material. Grandma Mackay helped make Breanne's Halloween costume. It turned out just how I wanted it.. Thank you so much for making Breanne that cutest cow girl ever! We sure love our Mackay!
Halloween afternoon.. carving out more 'guts'. As most of you know Breanne is a clean freak and hates to get messy.. so when she figured out she had to put her whole had down in the pumpkin to get out the guts she had to take all of her clothes off so they wouldn't get messy. The finished products. We finished just in time. Daddy had to go to work on Halloween, but he got off in time to finish up trick or treating.
Breanne and her horsey 'Braska'.
We stated trick or treating around our neighborhood, but Breanne was to scared to do it by herself. So we had to go find Brooke to go with her. It didn't take long for her to catch on.
They trick or treated till they dropped!
We stopped at Grams and Pa's to trick or treat. Grams showed her the traditional 'put all our candy out and see what ya got' trick. Do ya see her cute cow girl boots!?!
Our Sweet Little Cow Girl!! Happy Halloween!
