We ran into a fellow carebear... both mommies were taking pictures...
Quiting time... With Daddy.. He has his face full of Chocolate... Hence the look.

Trick or Treat
So Friday was our trick or treat night... we didn't want to go long and Keith and i needed a date night sooo... we went on post for 1/2 hour and then picked up our babysitter and took her back home... Lukas was a carebear tonight... You can imagine that paint from being a smurf was not easy to get off either...so Stacey gave us this costume and we decided to use it tonight.. not to mention that Lukas absolutely loves to wear it!

Our Green Thumbs
So we got a citation from our home owners association about our front yard... i was a bit miffed but oh well.. it got Keith to brake down and let me do something with it... I have really bad before photos from when we bought the house and then after photos in the dark! oh well...
Ok.. This was the far left before... not too bad.. but the flowers grew and then kinda died over and were looking more like a weed.
You can see the HIDIOUS bush on the left...
Ok.. Again not too bad except everything had over grown and looked like bad weeds... and i really didn't care for the railroad ties.
So $60.00 later...
My new landscaping.. again it is in the dark so you cant appreciate it all but i will try to get some in the light next week.
Keith did most of the work but i did get my knees dirty too...

Wednesday night was a tri ward Trunk or Treat... Lukas went as baby smurf... Some people got it and others didn't... I think he looked adorable!
On our way to the party!
Close-up... And YES it was very difficult to get him to sit still while i put that make-up on.. The hairspray though was actually harder... I was a bit disappointed though cuz the hairspray was suppose to be the same color blue as the paint.. OH well!!
It is amazing how different the blues look in different light... This is at home... see my craft table and what a mess!!
This is at the church...
This is Lukas's babysitter Cindy and her neice Zoe who we think is a very very cute girl!!!
the aftermath... on the way home.. chocolate coverd and exhausted.

Busch Gardens
SO we live 15-20 mins away from Busch Gardens and they do a salute to the heros where once a year active duty and their families get in free... so we went... had a great time.. All three of us went in the moring and then we took Lukas to a babysitters so keith and i could ride the big rides... all in all a $150.00 day cost us about $45 for babysitting and food!! NOT BAD!
Lukas LOVED IT!
Keith had to take him on all the kids rides... Those things make me sicker than a dog on chocolate!
The Merry go round
So this was a boat ride for kids only!!! I was sooo nervous... I felt like a mom watching her 16 yr old drive for the first time!!! HE Had a BLAST!!
The Dragons!
Playing in a dragon egg.
Merry Go Round the first time!
Flying with Daddy
Spinning Teacups. YUCK! Made me sick watching them.... Lukas was mocking the girls in the teacup next to them!! So everytime he came around you could hear him screaming like they were... Then he got off and was laughing... !

The Jobs!
Well we all know Keith is Active Duty in the Army... YEAH!!! ={ He is enjoying some of it and other parts not so much.. "We" are in the process of applying for Warrent Officer School so Keith can fly helicopters! Not only would we make twice as much!!! but he would have a better paying job so we could get out possibly. Also i would then be an officers wife!! NOT that that is everything but it definitley has its perks!
I was for 6 weeks a care giver for Courtney Aaron.. She is an 18 year old with CP (Cerable Palsey SP??) IT was so much fun.. She is such a sweet girl.. Loves the phone and internet and was just so agreeable most of the time! She also LOVED having Lukas around.
Keith and I both applied and tried out for Busch Gardens "Scare Squad" and we got parts. However after the first weekend i was exhausted and got very very sick the next week so i had to quite. I think the appeal is wearing off of Keith too but he is sticking with it only 2 weekends left... Ill see if i can get a picture of what he looks like in his costume!

Ok... so i am REALLY BAD at this blogging thing but hey im not even sure anybody reads it!!!
Anyways Lukas is playing so i might get a bit done here... Looks like i was at the Hill Camorah... WOW what a wonderful experiance... The pageant has changed a bit so i didn't enjoy it as much as previous years but it was still FABULOUS and not to mention that Dave and Keith were both seeing it for the first time!!! Keith really got a lot out of it being a convert to the Church and not growing up on Living Scriptures videos!! We just had a great time and the car ride to boot... lets see... we had Lukas, Aiden and Will on the back row of the van (I should have gotten pics!!) Keith and Dave in the captians chairs and Stacey and I up front (we both get car sick easily!) IT was a blast! NOT!!! the camping was also less then desirable too! But Oh Well...
This was some of the Site Seeing we got done! And pics of the Pageant (they are WAY out of order sorry!)
Jesus's visit to the nephites with the children.
