Alina: "one hundred plus twelve."
Me: "What does that equal?"
Alina: "Like a million."

O Christmas Tree

We put up Christmas decoration on Friday, but I made kids wait until Saturday to put the tree up so Ky would be home. They were so excited to see all their ornaments and put them on the tree. We ended up with three ornaments per branch, so I need to go rearrange a little. maybe next year they will get the concept of spreading them out.

When my brother's strength had failed him he had the kids do push-ups to the nursery rhyme "Jack and Jill." The kids had a great time, even though they cheated on their push-ups.

Thanksgiving

We had eighteen people at our house for Thanksgiving and ten of them were kids. My brother entertained the kids by letting them sit on his back while he did push-ups. We figured out that the four girls weighed a total of 165 pounds. As you can see in one of the pictures there is a line to be held up in the air. I think he got his workout for the day.

McKayla: "Mom, do some people get babies in their tummies before they are married?"
WHAT!! Where does she come up with this stuff?
Me: "Well ya, some people do."
Mckayla: "Well, how?"
Me: "Ahhhhh"
Ky: "They made some really bad choices."
McKayla with a look of terror on her face: "Have I made any really bad choices?"

Cornhole

This was Kyle's craft project for the year. I really didn't think that he could pull off this amount of detail, but he never ceases to amaze me. He is quite possibly the perfect man. For those of you who don't know what you're looking at, these are Cornhole boards. For those of you who don't know what Cornhole is you are missing out on probably the best backyard game since lawn darts

Utah

We went to Utah this past week for Ky's brother's wedding. The girls had a great time and loved the fancy dinner, reception and clothes. I only got a few pictures, so here they are. The girls cousin Taya riding in the car with them, they were all so excited to be together. The other one is the three of them watching Barbi A Christmas Carol while waiting for the dinner to get started.

Hats

My dad sent the girls these hats from Nepal. They loved them. Here they are modeling them for you.

Trick or treating

The girls had a great time trick or treating, this was their first time.

Happy Halloween

The girls has a blast this Halloween. I let them put their costumes on first thing in the morning and they got to wear them all day. We went out to to store and they loved all the compliments. They got to trunk or treat at the church and then we went to Madelyn's house and trick or treated on her street. Their buckets were so full that when we went to dump them nothing would come out. They were both great about throwing away any open candy and getting rid of any chewy candy.
