Thanksgiving is upon us
Here is our turkey parade.Brent made all of the turkey's when he was little (except the last one i made last year) and his mom saved them and Justin and I made a new one to add for 2010. Next month you will get to see our reindeer parade.
Then there is my newest Thanskgiving decoration that I got at a craft show
and I just had to have it.

Playing in the cupboards
The other day I was making dinner and I turned around and this is were I found Justin.
Halloween
Here are the Halloween pictures finally. Justin in his cute orange spider outfit,my pumpkin, trick or treating with daddy and of course our TMNT costumes.
Well Brent got there a little late and that is why his face is not painted.
So first I bought us all some stylish(lol) sweats from Salvation Army and then I made the rest with my sewing machine.For the front and back of the shell I made a pattern and then I stuffed them and hooked them together with elastic I also did the same thing with the knee pads. Then we have our masks but Justin did not like it so it became a bandana. The belts are elastic with wood circles for the buckle and velcro holds them on. Then our weapons we borrowed from Grandma J.
Well last year we were clowns and we won the costume contest at our ward party and yes you guessed it we won again.

Apple Orchard
We took Justin to the Apple Orchard and he had fun. We rode the big wagon through the
orchard to the pumpkin patch and brent and I picked out pumpkins for us to carve with his family the we got a small pi pumpkin for Justin. Then of course we had to get hot apple cider and sugar doughnuts. We had a lot of fun.
Raspberry Jam
So even though it was raining and freezing my sister-in-law Kimberly and I decided to go to the Orchard and pick raspberries to make freezer jam. Of course we were the only crazy ones to brave the rain with our ponchos on and everything. We didn't end up picking as many as we would have liked to due to the bad weather. This was my first time making freezer jam and who knew it was so easy. We got 4 1/2 conatiners maybe next year we will be smart and go sooner in the season so that it is not so cold.
