Who writes this stuff?

I try to keep my priorities in order: Jesus, my Andy, our children, everything else. I homeschool our boys, love to read almost all written words and have been challenged by the military life for 18 years. Right now my faulty human body is demanding a lot of attention. One day at a time, learning as much as possible every day and remembering to look for JOY when other things threaten to overwhelm.

My Blog Title Verse

"For the Lord gives wisdom. From His mouth come knowledge and understanding." Proverbs 2:6 NKJV
The Message translation puts it this way "God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding."

A night full of dress up

We went "Happy Halloweening" door to door last night. We don't call it trick-or-treating, because I told my kids that tricking is not something we would ever do, so why even mention it.
 We went with our friends who had the absolutely genius idea to hand out a thank you note at every house. You should have seen the response. It was beautiful.

Jasmine, A rock star, Robin Hood and The Easter Bunny

My husband, the killer bee.
Please, don't ask.   

 Robin Hood was fascinated by the freedom of sticking out that tongue without getting in trouble!
The Easter bunny lives under a tree, don't you know.
The tree has a nest in her hair, with a beautiful bird named woodstock living in it.

See his little bunny ears coming running!
 A fierce and fearless gladiator. 
 Beautiful Gypsy princess and her "big hair". (I laughed at her, claiming that was big... I can do that in my sleep. And often do, hehe) Isn't she gorgeous?
Most of the family...

The blue daddy and little monkey baby!
 A good time was had by all.

So Andy didn't want Zion to be a "bunny" yet he wore wings all night? And a very um...questionable stinger?
He's a hypocrite! ha ha!
VERY cute!
I LOVE that you were a tree, very fitting!

Carrie, I agree, Andy is a hypocrite!! My elderly neighbor called him a "little fairy", I almosted died laughing!
And Bethany's costume was very appropriate. The first thing I said when I saw her was, "Are you going to hug yourself?" Hahaha...

Love the pictures!!
(I can't believe you handed out thank you notes at each house...did y'all just have the kids make a bunch of them up to hand out as you went?)

I'm very worried about Andy, the "fairy bumble bee"... You look beautiful.
