They say it takes a village...

But in reality, it takes an army to get Gus to go to sleep!

they humored me for a moment after thanksgiving dinner,

then went right back to the DS game!

Found out what to put under the tree this year instead of toys!

Germ had to cut a barrel in half last week for a project. Who needs toys. they turned these guys into boats and tanks in no time!

Casie looks like one of those Chinese dragons in the Chinese New Year parade!

simplicity

Don't be a hater. I know you are envoius of Milo's new jet.

It even comes with it's own "don't ever push this" button,
and his own cannon (that the dog just ate an hour ago)

He played in this box for hours shooting at the bad guys,
flying all around the world. All from a box.

I wish life would continue to be as simple as a cardboard box.
Or atleast that people would allow their imaginations to continue to be this expressive and simple.

Speaking of simple things in life. the kids LOVE the leaves right now.

We have been collecting leaves for our garden from neighbors to pack down on the garden beds. (got some? bring them over!)
So you know who has to play in them first.

yes we found leaves in every bit of our clothes!

but that is what makes it so fun they say

Halloween Fun 2009!

The boys played around Thursday before Trick or Treat. Gus was in love with the halloween Snoopy. He kept barking like a dog and kissing his nose.

Battle of the Bras!!

As most of you know Casie and I are participating in the
Making Strides Walk this Sunday to help raise money to fight breast cancer,
in honor of my Mom, Sandi.

So of course when given the challenge, I had to make a bra for the
Battle of the Bra competition!

"Cornn-cop-a-feel"

is Germ's witty name for this piece that promotes eating whole foods! lots of foods photographed by me then put on fabric and
crazy stitched to the bra with colorful buttons.

Casie's hands are in the middle holding cherry tomatoes

Can you go visit the Battle of the Bra's website now and
all it take is $5 to vote!!
Each $5 goes to our team, the Hamilton Parker Company team
Pass the word!! thanks!!
