The Nutcracker

I didn't get any pictures of the 24Th when we went to the Nutcracker. I know what was I thinking. But Munster and I had a lot of fun. I got her the tickets for her birthday and I made us matching red velvet dresses to wear. The seats weren't as good as I thought they were going to be but we will fix that next year. Munster had so much fun and I cried through the whole thing. Just knowing she enjoyed it as much as she did made it all worth it for me. The company that put on the performance is from Eugene, Oregon. Then they hire local kids to play the parts of the angels and the lady bugs. These kids came from Munster's school. So she said next year she is going to be in the Nutcracker. Which may just be what happens. If so you can bet that there will be a lot of pictures of her in her outfits.

While we were at the Nutcracker Dad took Web to a Billings, Bulls game. Dad usually gets tickets from work but they were out for this game so Dad and Web stood in line for 45 minutes. Dad tried to persuade Web to go somewhere else but Web wanted to see the game. After standing in line they were able to see an hour of the Hockey game before I called and told him we were done. But all in all we had a lot of fun.The next time there is a game we will have to get pictures. we all went on Thanksgiving night and we had a lot of fun.

Omi and Opi took Munster to Build-a-bear for her birthday and this is what she made.
She chose a very fuzzie pink bear in a red fairy costume with glass slippers. She named her bear Aurora.

Costumes

Munster wanted to be Belle. Our lovely Belle had a lot of fun trick-or-treating.

Web was a great fire fighter. He even had a fire extinguisher that really squirted.

I was a Spider Witch.

Dad was a vampire.

Here are the pumpkins:

The second one is Web's. Mommy punched the holes and daddy cut it out.

This one is Munsters daddy cut it out. The others are the Elder's.

Pumpkins with flair

We had a lot of fun doing pumpkins with the Elders.

Painting fun

I decided to let the kids paint and this is what I found.




As I got them undressed to get them washed it was revealed to me that they had painted more than just their faces and hands. It was all over them. Thank goodness for bath tubs.


The table was not too bad. But it was a mess.

Unfortunatlly the tub was also a mess when they were done. I went from the table to the tub cleaning up this mess.

Ouch!

I don't suggest kicking a pair of sewing scissors. IT HURTS!

Reading fun

You might notice that my kids hardly ever have clothes on. This is a constant fight we have. They can't leave there clothes on for more than two seconds.

These are just some fun shots of the two of them reading together. I laughed as they were reading this book and then laughing at each other

October

October has been a lot less crazy for us. No travel and a lot of rest. Well at least for me. Anyone know a good cure for a migraine that just won't go away? The kids have been busy making bats and spiders. Tomorrow we will do our pumpkin carving. Which I will post the results of. Munster has decided to be Belle for Halloween and Web is going to be a Fireman. We will post these after Halloween. We are still working on our costumes. Anyone have any good ideas?
I have been busy making gifts and getting us prepared to buy a home. We are done with these apartments in March so we have a little time to decide what we are going to do. Rent or buy?

ZOOMONTANA

What a fun day we had at ZooMontana. We were able to go to the Zoo for free through work. They reserved the Zoo for the day and had food and games for the kids and all kinds of fun activities. We enjoyed seeing the animals and getting to know some of the people Six work's with. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
Here we have Munster and Web posing for the camera. You can barely see Web's mask he is wearing.I put a couple of these in because we had a hard time getting the little man to look in the holes.

The Eagles at the Zoo were so cool. We just saw them in the wild at Mack's inn and now we see some in the Zoo. The one has a broken wing. I think most of it is gone. But they are lovely creatures.

This painting is of a real horse at the zoo. I thought I had a picture of him but I guess not. He is a real Clydesdale and a very Beautiful animal. The kid's couldn't help but pose for the shot.

The Tigger

We had a lot of fun at the Zoo. Billings Clinic takes good care of their employee's. In the picture you can see a drink in Munsters hand this was from Billings Clinic they gave us these and the masks and hats for the kids at the entrance.
This is the tigger we saw at ZooMontana. The kids were so excited. This and the eagles were the kids favorite part. What a fun day as a family.
Thank you Billings Clinic!

Wonder Woman

Thank you Carrie for your comments. I have never been called a wonder Woman before, but I appreciate the compliment. The many women in my life whome I would call wonder women would be all my sister's and sister-in-laws, my mother and Mother-in-law,and many friends along the way. To name a few...Sorry if I miss you:) Carrie, Caroline, rachelee, Jamie, Julianne, Joy, and many more..

Fun with our cousins in Utah.

Okay so this was to be after Yellowstone but oh well.

This is the pool that Web thought was heaven. A big pirot ship. What could be better.
These two trouble makers had a lot of fun together in Utah. The only problem was that two at the age of two is too much trouble. But you couldn't seperate them. They love each other. We caught them in the bath tub (without the water) and they had shampoo all over themselves. I didn't put the picture in because Web had taken his clothes off. Yeah I know they are naked here but they are covered.
These two had so much fun. I thought this was a great picture of them together.



Thanks for all the fun!

Yellowstone

The kids and I had a crazy drive through Yellowstone (15 Hours) to head to Utah to visit family.
Here is the buffalo or bison I can't tell the difference. There were a bunch of them all along the hill side. We didn't stop so I took the pictures out my window while driving. The kids were asleep.
While watching the people at Old Faithful we noticed this big eruption just to the side, this geyser was huge it was a better show and we were far away from it.

The kids had fun with their cousins. We all liked this tree it had a lot of character.
This is the upper canyon falls stop. It was beautiful to see.
Alas Old Faithful, The kids were excited to see this. Even though we had to waite about 45 minutes to see it.
