I put sponge curlers in Kamryns hair. The curls didn’t last long though! Darn!
The Dunn family invited us over for Thanksgiving this year. The kids had a blast playing in the sandbox in their backyard. They enjoyed the delicious dinner too and then lots more playing!
We realized we didn’t have any pictures of us from Thanksgiving so on our drive home I snapped a picture…haha notice Ryan is such a great driver he didn’t take his eyes off the road!
The day after Thanksgiving was so nice. We spent some time at the park and then did a little shopping and even put up the Christmas lights. 
After dragging the kids around doing errands practically all day, by the time we got home they were all passed out in the back seat and all continued to nap once we got inside, which is a rarity after waking up!
Today Kade had a Thanksgiving Concert at school. He begged me to wear his church clothes. He really wanted to wear a tie. I didn’t want him to wear his church clothes because I knew he would end up ruining them at recess. So I finally gave in but only if he promised to change his clothes after the program. Luckily he agreed and I hope he follows through with his end of the deal! They sang a cute Turkey version of the Hokey Pokey! I loved it!
The other day while I was at Sam’s Club an older lady asked if Kamryn and Keegan were twins. I think there is still an obvious age difference between them but not for too long.
Here are some of the recent trouble that these two have been getting into.
Such a sweet sister! 
I have been without a tree skirt for Kooper’s tree for a few years. The first year I used a white sheet around it. Then last year I didn’t use anything. This year I found a great tutorial on a ruffled tree skirt and I loved the look, so I might even make another one for my big tree! My sister and Mom wanted to know how I did it so i thought I would post it on my blog. Here is the link to the tutorial: Ruffled Tree Skirt
Then I have some white sheets that I had laying around from a bed that we no longer have in that size and I cute 3 inch strips. I found a sponge that was 3 inches long and used that as I cut so I had a visual. My lines weren't straight but once you put it on you can’t really tell.
I left the edges raw, so they will fray a little. I think it gives it a vintagey look if that’s a word…
So I did mine a little differently. I decided to do straight stick (I did mine by hand) which helped it stay synched.
I did a ruffle all the way to the top and hot glued the top of the ruffle to the back of the sheet so you can’t see the synches.
I also didn’t do ribbon to tie bows. I am just going to lay it down the way I want it.
Can’t think of any other tips, if you have any questions for when you make yours leave a message or e-mail me.
This is what happens in the evening when instead of napping you play during naptime…
My parents were able to come before they drove back home to Utah. We miss them so much and wish they could have stayed longer!
We had some costume drama at our house….with a 2 year old! I am in for it if she is already concerned about what to wear. She didn’t want to wear her Rapunzel costume, so I put one of Kade’s old Buzz Lightyear costumes on her. She didn’t like that for more than 10 minutes. I think she was hot. She wanted to wear her boots so she was Daisy Duke or as most people called her a cowgirl! Keegan didn’t like his costume very much so he was a football player instead with shoulder pads and all!
The kids had a great time. Kamryn wasn’t very shy at all. She loved seeing all the scary decorations and repeated over and over, “Ooohhh that’s scary!” and “Ewwww that scared me!” she screamed a few times and even started to cackle like a witch! Kade was an awesome big brother and was very patient about waiting for his little brother and sister. He loved all the scary houses.
When he got back he was passing out candy and when they would come to the door he was giving them each 4 pieces so I told him he couldn’t do that or we would run out too soon. So when people came to the door he would be looking out the window and before they even got up to the porch he would say, “Happy Halloween, You can only pick one!”
