Nothin' But Love

Who would've thought that one little puppy could bring so much fun and love into our family? As most of you know, in place of children, Maya has become out little baby. She keeps us entertained, is quite funny, and gives so much love. Becca and Mae came to visit today and Mae always loves seeing Maya, so I thought I would share. Occassionally Maya gets to full of love and can't help herself from kissing Mae. At first Mae flinches, but then she giggles. She never wants Maya to leave her side when she's at our house. They're quite the pals!

A Quick Visit

We were so excited to have Emily and Ryan come for a quick visit yesterday. Unfortunately the circumstances weren't the best, being here for Ryan's Grandmother's funeral tomorrow. However, we loved having Emily, Ryan, Carter, and Brandon here for a night. They drove from Seattle and we had a great visit. The boys are getting so big and are so much fun. We just wish they lived closer!! Maybe some day huh?! On the other hand, we are so grateful for the family we do live by!! Thanks for coming Emily and Ryan, hopefully we can see you guys again for New Years!

Happy Hauntings!!

Last night we had our Second Annual Halloween party. It was fun to see everyone's creative costumes! We had a good turn out and enjoyed seeing everyone! We had lots of treats and enjoyed just having fun! Eric and Miriam looked pretty tough...or something like that. ;)

Jason and Castro a.k.a Joey hanging out in between eating chili and donuts.


Miss Hotty Marilyn Monroe and Little Miss Pumpkin Pie!! Aren't they adorable.


It was so fun to see Amber, Glenn, and their little guy Tyce (the targeted deer). Amber and I were roommates about 4 years ago and haven't seen each other for a long time. It was so good to see her and catch up a bit!! Thanks for surprising us Amber!


Isn't Jason a hot cowboy? I think he needs to wear the hat and boots more often! Maya was a good sport too and wore the bandana all night. She was so excited to see the trick or treaters that she made two little ones cry. She's just so full of love, but they don't realize that. It was fun to have trick or treaters this year too.


What do you think? Classy Marilyn with her white trash husband?



Farmer Jeff with his beautiful wife and cute little pumpkin!



What do you think of these sexy men? Lookin' hot Kirk, but not quite as hot as my little cowboy in the middle.



Cinderella (Alyssa), Maya, and Mickey (Kyler) hangin' out at the party after trick or treating. They looked really cute and loved all the candy and goodies!! (Maya especially liked all of the donut crumbs and frosting drippings.)




Jason being taken hostage by his crazy brother Joey and his fiance Jess! They took us all by surprise, but only made Kyler cry. ;) We're glad they made it!
