Special Bond

Everybody in the house loves LACEY... But Kev and LACEY seem to have an extra special bond. She tolerates his never ending pulling and grabbing (trying to teach him gentleness) and he tolerates her stealing cars from him and nipping occasionally. If she does steal a toy or chews on something we don't want her chewing on... All I have to do is ask Kevin to handle it. And he does. I love watching this bond grow. A boy and his dog. 

Fun night on the town

The company Jon works for celebrated their 60th anniversary. It is a really big deal for insurance companies or any company for that matter to last sixty years! So, we celebrated! It was a great night. Jon and I really needed a night without kids where we just had fun. The theme was casino night and we got to play with fake money, eat yummy food and dance! What could be better! I also loved getting all dressed up. A nice change from my mom yoga pants uniform. 

Halloween.. Little late

This year as we have for the past few years, we spent Halloween with awesome neighbors. Jake was a minecraft character (future reference, video game character) Will was a ninja and Kevin was a firefighter, this year more than most, their costumes really began to show their ages! They are growing up. Will and Kevin were tuckered out about halfway through the neigh hood but held it together most of the time and Jake and Jon stayed out extra long. This is also the first year they all remembered their candy the next morning. Jake has for a few years. Kevin and I went to see Williams class parade. He looked awesome and his friends are soo cute! I also had the opportunity of sharing the responsibility of room mom with my neighbor and friend, Heather. It was really fun and have me that little "teacher fix." Our theme was simple, old school. The kids loved bean bags, what's in the box, pin the eyes on the mummy to name a few,,. It was fun seeing Jake in his element. He has a great teacher and sweet friends. Here are a few pics.
