Witch and 2 Ariels~

Ready for school!!

A little Bono for ya!

U2

7:30am Sunday morning, Rose Bowl, U2. Just seeing this picture cracks me up! Everyone was in good spirits and so excited. Once we parked we had to walk about a half mile to the line. People were already in line from the night before (but we have kids) so we had to swiftly walk to the line. 'Mall pace'. In this picture our friend Erik is saying......'Don't break stride for the picture people'! Then followed it up with....'Wait, I left my coffee....... but I'm just going to let it go' (with his hand sadly letting it go). I woke up this morning cracking up about this walk to the line. I sensed some annoyance that I was shuffling to find the camera in this moment. Notice Nicole and Boo were not breaking stride!
Once we got our numbers we were able to relax. I was number 796. I would have been number 300 if I didn't have kids. Our friend Tim in the picture as well.

Boo parked himself on a hill to get the horizontal effect.

We waited for.....10 hours. 7:30am to 5:30pm. Nice time for a shout out to the babysitters, Nick and Shannon!! THANK YOU!!
We sat down once we got in the inner circle to keep our 'real estate'!
Some very excited concert goers seen here.
Wait for it.......

The Black Eyed Peas opened up, it honestly doesn't get any better than that.
OHH wait, it did get better, Slash walked out and played Sweet Child of Mine!
Then there was Bono. Who is the coolest rockstar in the world.

Falloween!

Who knew she was so particular with her pumpkin choice?

This is the right pumpkin for me!
Malyn was so proud of her pumpkin too. Malyn is our little pumpkin lover. She has been excited about going to the pumpkin patch since last October!! Each night when we say our prayers she says, 'Thank you for the Pumpkin Patch (and fireworks)."


Happy Falloween!
Thoughts behind this picture:

Stacy- I'm wearing a BOO shirt for a shout out to my husband. I wear it once a year and each year it creeps up, getting a little tighter and a little shorter.

Mattie Sue- Staring at the little girl that wanted to join us in our family picture. Her dad was taking the picture and she walked up and stood right next to Malyn smiling. He dad was like 'GET OUT', and she would not move. Both my girls just smiled looking at her.

Boo- Its fine buddy, just take the picture.

Malyn- I finally made it to the pumpkin patch. My parents finally took me. And look, I get my very own pumpkin. (Second kiddrom)

Mini desert visit!

Boo's brothers flew out to the desert for a weekend of golfing! The girls and I met up with them for some pool time one afternoon. The girls love their Uncle Bobby and Uncle Christopher!






Everytime I ask Mattie Sue the name of the president she says....'Uncle Bobby...no Unca Bobba, no, Barak Obama!'

Why we love the fair

The Richmond Street Fair was this past weekend in our town.
We rode the train.

Hit up some swings.

Took a selfie.


James, Erik and Boo sat for lunch on the curb.


Chatted with the fireman and asked him why we were not headed out to a fire.
And ate one of these. YUM!



That's why we love the fair!!

Someone got a new do!

Holding tightly to the purple lollipop!




Nope, mom wants shorter!
Juuuuuust right! And she loves it too! When Mattie Sue saw Malyn with her new cut she said, "Malyn, you look just like Nama!"
