Funny Story about Easton...

So, the other night I was at my mom's house for my neice MaKenzie's birthday party...Well we were supposed to wear costumes, and I decided not to wear my devil costume, I wore a really long blonde/yellow wig and a coconut bra instead. Well Easton had fallen down or something and was crying for his mommy. I went over and picked him up to snuggle him, like a good mommy should...he looked at me, continued crying and saying, "I want my mommy!"...I said, "Easton, I am your mommy."...He stopped crying, looked at me funny...then started laughing, when he realized, that in fact, I was his mommy! It was pretty funny. We all got a good laugh out of it!

Kids and their costumes

I just love the kids costumes this year. Shyler chose to be a princess(surprise, surprise)! My sister Kimberly found this place tossing out prom dresses with the tags still on them, claiming they were defective...so we took them and adjusted them for our girls. I love Shyler's, it turned out very pretty, and it was pretty simple to alter.

Zoey (the dog) looks so amused...haha
I love love love Easton's costume this year. I borrowed the bike from my friend Amanda's son, Dylan. Thanks bud! I got some adult tattoo sleeves and adjusted them. And I even made his vest. I just think he looks sooo cute!

Another quick post of pics




Down the aisle, AGAIN????

Ok, so let me set the scene...My cousin in law (in law) has always thought it'd be fun to do something with her girlfriends wearing their wedding dresses (remember that episode on Friends where Monica and Phoebe wear the dresses all around the house?) Well she planned the party and it was last night. It really was a blast. Everyone wore their dresses, or a bridesmaid dress and we had cheese and chocolate fondue, a wedding cake, and even did wedding things like walking down an aisle (runway) and cutting the cake. It was lots of laughs and just sillyness. I'll add more photos and hopefully some video once Lindsey and Becky post some. For now, you can see my pics. (I know...I seem to have lots of wedding posts lately......weird....
This is me and Cole's cousin Jenny
