Crazy little stinker!!!

Yyyyyeeesssss!!!!

Well, I have absolutely fantabulous news!!!! Well, let me start off with the bad news....I got a letter about two weeks ago from school saying I'm not poor enough to qualify for any government grants....suck....well, Saturday, I got a new letter saying I have been awarded a $1200 Pell Grant (which will more than cover expenses at Community College) for next semester!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been yanked around by Austin Community College since April...I don't know if I should call and yell at them for being so incompetent or if I should go give someone a hug!!!!!! All I know is that I'm goin to school, baby!!!! Wish me luck!!!!!

We'll be in Lansing Sunday before Thanksgiving to the Sunday after....soooo if anyone wants to get together, please let me know!!!!

So, we spent all this money on presents for Blake for his birthday, but all he really wants to play with is a watering can.....I swear! I'm buying him toilet paper, a watering can and things to throw down the stairs for Christmas!!! 

Here's a great pic of Blake with my grandparents 

We had a bonfire at Becca's house Friday....I brought some of my crappy old work uniforms and burned them in the fire...It felt very liberating!!!!!

Bryce doing defensive driving online and Blake assisting... 

I went to check on Blake because he was being a little too quiet, and he was in his room reading his books!!!! 

Here's Blake in his big man outfit! I just thought he looked so cute in this vest my dad got him for his birthday! It has a little goat in the pocket...heehee 

Blake went in yesterday to get a hair cut--his first!!!! He was lookin kinda scraggly and we want to get his pictures taken soon, so we thought we'd get a little trim! He sat still and watched The Wiggles and didn't cry!!! We weren't sure what to expect from him, but he did super well!!! 

Here's the finished product! Soooo cute! I didn't know how much of a difference it would make to have his little hair cut!!! 

Blake getting his hair cut! I had to stand there and hold him so he wouldn't stand up!!!! 

I'm not really sure why this kid is so infatuated with vacuums, but I'm ok with it!!!!! 

Colleen had her baby Oct 30th!!!!! His name is Brady and he was born 7lbs 11oz 20inches! They're both doing well! I don't have many details yet, but I'll keep you posted as I know! I'm very excited!!!! 

I baked cookies for Blake to take to his daycare! I couldn't find any fun sprinkles or Halloween stuff, so they are what they are! Oh, yeah...no black icing either....they tasted good, though!!!! 

Me (look, I'm a brunette again!!!), Timberli, Becca, Blake and Caleb all bundled up and took the boys out trick-or-treating...it was a first time for both of them--and us (as adults!)!!!!! 

Look, it's a chicken on a bike!!! 

Soooo....here's Blake's mystery costume! He's Chicken Little! Everyone kept calling him a little girl....I guess Bryce was right about it being feminine...I don't care, it was super cute!!!
