Just wanted to wish you all a very

Love,  the Cullumber’s  :0)

My first post on the Shabby Shoppe Blog has been published!  Go here, and you can read it and download a recipe card that I made for the occasion!  :0)

I’m sitting here on my bed, working on my computer.  Christopher is sitting with me, with his homemade computer- he made it himself!  SO CUTE!  (His Daddy is quite proud!)

He saw my wedding pictures on my wall, and this conversation ensued:

Christopher:  Was I dere?

Me:  No, you weren’t born yet.

Christopher:  But, why?!  Babies need to be dere, too.  Oh!  Maybe I would come down in my helercopter and be dere.  And you could name me Christopher, or Jackson, or KILLER DRAGON!

Me:  Killer Dragon?  Why Killer Dragon?

Christopher:  Because I like killing dragons…

Ha ha ha!  I tell ya, conversations never get boring with him around!  :0)

Halloween was LONG awaited- and I’m VERY glad it’s over.  :0)  The kids had SO much fun, though!  That makes all the hard work worth it!  Once again, I made the kids’ costumes.  I just didn’t have as much energy/ambition to do too much.  Thankfully, the kids LOVED their costumes.  (Except Mallie.  I think she could have cared less.  :0)  )  Ivon took the kids out Trick or Treating while I stayed home with Mallie- who fell asleep- and handed out- and ate- candy.  :0)

I told him to hold out his hands to look like he was flying.  He’s cute!  See the whole in his mouth?  :0)  He pulled that tooth out all by himself!

I told Christopher to hold out his hands, too.  That’s as close as he could get!  The poor kid is SO uncoordinated!  (He STILL can’t figure out how to pedal his bike!)

Hannah asked me, “Can I do this in my picture?”  (LOVE how she poses!)

Mallie’s super powers are being SUPER cute and mumbling into a phone.  (I had to give her my phone to keep her still!)

And, Emily wanted to get back to her ancestral roots and be an Indian.  With glasses.  LOVE her!

(See Christopher’s boots?!)  :0)

(Mallie wouldn’t turn around.  She was too busy on the phone.)

Saturday night, we carved our pumpkins.  We were almost done with them when the knives broke.  All of them.  So, I had to finish them with our sheet rock saw.  Yeah.  It was interesting.  :0)  Oh, and Ivon took these pictures.  I tried, and they turned out blurry.  He was proud of himself for taking better pictures than I did.  (His secret weapon was a tripod).  He’s so smart.  :0)

This is Robby and Christopher’s pumpkin.

This Emily and Hannah’s pumpkin.

This was Mallie’s contribution.  She stood guard over the garbage can the whole time.

Happy belated Halloween!
