Halloween- 2011

Its pretty sad when you have to preface your title with the year because you have let yourself get SO far behind... but none the less. This last Halloween I decided to be Mimi( from the Drew Carey Show. for those of you how are clueless) I tried to convince Aaron to be Drew but he wouldn't go along with my little scheme :)He didn't go as anything for the most part. He wanted to be Lord Voldemort since Charles was Harry Potter but we just couldn't find anything that would look good so he went as himself.
 At our Ward Halloween Party no one even recognized me until I spoke. I would say that this was a total success.

 
While perusing the local DI( which of course is one of my favorite things to do) Emily and I found this awesome little number. It originally was a light Green but after 2 dye jobs it was a Sultry green :) I think that this is one the top of my list for Favorite Costumes of Kyah's. It ranks right up there with Annie!
 

 Chelsea was a Mummy. We whited out her face and drew big black circles around her eyes.She searched every store that we went into for the "perfect Mummy Jewelry"She finallyfound it at a paparazzi party it was huge and gaudy, It was hilarious but she loved it. 
 

 Charles was Harry Potter. And what an AWESOME Harry Potter he made. Here is a comparison picture, don't you agree :)

We went Trick or Treating with Scott and Tasha, Which is becoming a standing tradition. It was a warm night and the kids of course made a good hall.

When the kids got home they spread out their candy like always and traded and swapped until they all got the kinds of candy that they all love. Halloween is a fun time of the year for me. Mostly because it is the start of my favorite season and holidays of the year. I am excited to be blogging again. it is one of my favorite things to do! Hope you will enjoy the follow few days and weeks as I attempt to catch myself up on my family and all of its doings.

PARTY! PARTY! PARTY! PARTY! Because there were so many people in town for Kyah's Baptism. We decided that Our church house was the solution to this problem. Luckily Aaron thought ahead and had the Gym and Kitchen booked Like 3 weeks in advance. ( thanks Honey ) All of our family that came for the event were ther and so were some of our closest friends. The only one I didn't get a picture of were Katie and Joel because they had to leave early. One of the best things about our families is that the In-Laws get along great! In fact they were chatting it up the entire time they were together. Aaron was so worried that we wouldn't have enough food to feed everyone, He practically obsessed over it , but when it was all said and done. there was SOOO much left over food that we were begging people to take some home with them! This was a wonderful reason for a family gathering and I am so glad that i have a bright special Young girl that has chosen to take the first step ...

Athena Winter Farnsworth made her debut on Friday September 5, at 2:44 pm. We couldnt be more ecstatic. Kyah did really well. She was induced, she went to the hospital at 6:15 and even before starting patossin, she was dilated to a 3 and contracting.  She asked me to come with she and John to help support her through her labor. I was more than happy to go. I was ready for the long haul, because i was in labor with her for almost 18 hours. But she progressed so steadily. She was at a 5 busy 12, and by 2 was pushing.  She did so great. She was a trooper through it all. It was such a special experience to be able to document the day for them.  She of course has my nose 🥳... the genes are strong for that one. Aaron and I are just elated  to be a grammy and grumpa again!  She is home now and we are all smitten with her. We are very blessed to have those little one join our family. Congrats Kyah and John!  ...

AND THE VERDICT IS... A mix of # 4 and # 5. I went to the hair stylist and hacked off 12 inches of beautiful hair today. When she did it I almost got light-headed. It is very different, When I walked through the door, the first thing Aaron said to me was ... " I DON'T LIKE IT ! " Well I knew that he would react this way because he LOVES long hair. I LO VE it though and it took about 5 minutes to style( which is a far cry from long hair that you have to blow-dry, straighten and then keep out of your face all day) I am very excited about this new look . I told Aaron , Just look at it this way... Look at all the money I am saving us on shampoo and extra water for the time it took me in the shower.... He didn't appreciate my humor. Oh well. ;O)
