HoLlOwEeN

Hope you all had a Happy Halloween. Scroll down and you can see a picture of the kids all dressed up for Halloween. Brandon was a dragon, Hilaree was a witch, and Mike and Scott were skeleton's.

Arizona Bound!

We are happy to report that after putting our home up for sale it sold a week and a half later (thank goodness, because I was wearing out fast keeping it perfect for all of the showings). We feel very blessed and are looking forward to being closer to our families. There will be a lot of things we will miss about PA, we have a lot of great memories here, but it will be nice to be back in the west and say good buy to the dreaded humidity. Now we need to start packing. I am not looking forward to that at all, because we have accumulated a lot since moving here, but it will be worth it to be able to live near of families. We hope you all enjoying the nicer weather that spring brings. Take care.

Pine Wood Derby

Last night we attended Scott's Pine Wood Derby race. He didn't get 1st place, but his car did very well. Brandon had the most fun of all. He raced Lightning McQueen down the track and enjoyed it tremendously. It was a fun night!

Snow Days!

Well we are in the middle of being pounded by the 2nd snow storm since Saturday and we are having blizzard conditions outside. I haven't seen this much snow since February of 2003, after Hilaree was born in Colorado. We had at least 3 feet, but it was nice because Duaine was able to stay home from work for about 3 days and help out with the new baby. He also stayed home today as well as the kids. They went outside for a while, but with the wind being so powerful they could only stay out for a short while.

I also wanted to mention that Michael received his Arrow of Light badge last Wednesday. It is the highest rank in the Cub Scouts that you can earn. We are very proud of him and his hard work. I forgot to take my camera with me so a friend let me borrow hers, but I wasn't able to get them to open on the blog for some reason.

We also had Hilaree's 7th birthday on Tuesday (and Saturday). She is growing up very quickly. We love her so much. She brings a lot of spice and love to our home.
She has always hated to get her hair done, but we found a hair blog that we have been getting ideas from and that has helped our hair problems improve. Hooray!

We also were able to go see Aunt Geri and Dianna at Jenny and Daves in Pottstown over the week end. It was fun to see them again and watch the Super Bowl together. Some how me made it to see them twice even with all the snow. Next time mom you should come with them too. We also went to Valley Forge with them. We saw a ton of dear. Madison (Hickman) said she wishes she had a gun so she could shoot them. We thought that was pretty funny. I guess that is what happens when your dad is a hunter.

Take care everyone. I hope the snow has missed you because I don't think we will be going any where any time soon. Love ya all.
