Brothers

He'll be my buddy for all of time,
My fellow conspirator in many a crime,
A willing participant in messes of slime,
And be worth more than Scrooge's #1 Dime;

We'll play pirate ships on the couches,
And jump on Daddy until he slouches,
We'll fight when we are grouches,
But share each other's lunch pouches;

And when life threatens to smother,
And there's help from not one other,
We'll remember these words from our Mother:
You'll always have your brother.

One way to clean your purse

Comic Relief

My mother-in-law just sent this to me. I thought it was too funny not to share. It's kinda long- 3.5 minutes- but you get the idea of it in just a minute. THis is one of the funniest ward talent show acts I have ever seen

Halloween Recap and A request for advice

We had AMAZING weather on Halloween- at least 75 all day and then 60's at night while we were out trick or treating. AMAZING. I pushed Andrew in the stroller while Chris took Nate door to door. He did great. He would yell trick or treat at every door and even meowed for them! One lady gave him a toy mouse! He did not want to stop, but his paws were dragging and head was flopped to the side- we knew it was time to stop. Can't wait for next year when Andy can go too.



I need any suggestions from you guys on how to teach your kids about the true meaning of Christmas and how to keep Christmas Christ centered. This is our first CHristmas that Nate will really understand what is going on and so I want to start it off right and start some good traditions. PLEASE PLEASE give me some ideas!
Love, jen
