Top 10 Reasons Alison Has Not Posted

10. She moved (this excuse is valid for 6 months from move-in date)
9. She was required to put in a yard in 30 days (by herself and a rusty hoe)
8. She wanted to take before and after pics but couldn't find the camera so you are not really getting the full effect. Basically there were piles of rocks filled with rattlesnakes, tumbleweeds, construction debris, weeds everywhere. These are really before sod and after sod pictures. Not as cool.
7. She was trying to convince Camryn every day that she was not going to drive her 15 minutes back to her old elementary and things would get better at her new school soon.
6. She kind of got pregnant.
5. She got sick.
4. She got really sick.
3. She couldn't make herself go in the kitchen, let alone the basement where the computer is.
2. She went back to basics. Eat, sleep, and shuttle kids.
1. She had Marshall's birthday, her birthday, her anniversary, and Thanksgiving all in the same week and it took a lot out of her and she needed time to recover.













Halloween - We borrowed this awsome Hermione costume from her cousin. Everyone kept telling her she was Ginny. She has only read the first one so she didn't know who that was.

Camryn, Savannah and our new good neighbor friends Max and Harper

Max and Harper's mom is the pirate. I was the sick lady taking pictures.


Savannah is Hedwig. We borrowed this and it was totally too short, but she could not be dissuaded.

Danielle and Bryan put on the coolest Halloween party at my mom's. Every single thing was some Halloween thing. Best Halloween party so far. Thanks guys.




Chancelor was a teddy bear. Marshall did not like this costume and declared it the last year I get to do his costumes for the rest of his life.

Savannah was in a play at her preschool class. She was a bunny, hence the smudged red nose.
