Last night we were at our Bishop's office for tithing settlement. Lizzie saw a picture of a cornucopia and she busts out with this bit of info.
"Cornucoopias (not copias) are horn shaped baskets filled with the things we are thankful for."
She learned it from watching TV.
What a kid!

No pics
YET!
But I did figure out how to customize the background. I'm not giving up on the slide show, so keep your eyes open. If anyone knows how to do a slide show and would like to tell me how, please feel free to.

Halloween, Halloween, trick or treat
We had a fabulous Halloween. We started on Thursday with a Fall Festival at preschool. Elizabeth dresses up as a ballerina, real make up and all, which was a big deal to her. Hunter went as the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, Tony Romo. We even wrapped up his pinkie finger on his right hand (for those normal people who don't eat, sleep and breath football, Tony Romo is out because he broke his pinkie finger on his throwing hand). Hunter was very proud of his "broken hankie" and he got quite a reaction from everyone when his teacher asked what he'd done to his finger and he told her that he was Tony Romo for Halloween. He had an extra big smile on his face for the rest of the day.
Halloween night was great. Some friends invited us over to go trick or treating with them. They live on a cul-de-sac with 3 houses and we know 2 of the 3 families in the cul-de-sac. We set up picnic tables and had a chili dinner. The dads took all the kids trick or treating and the moms stayed behind to hand out candy. The weather was perfect (in the 70's) and we didn't have to add any layers to the kids. We ended up sitting outside talking until about 10 when the kids came down off their sugar high and started to get really whiny. We had a fun time and the kids had so much fun trick or treating with their friends. We're hoping this becomes a Halloween tradition.
I'm going to try a slide show of Halloween pictures. I think I've got it, but my head hurts now.
P.S. Anna and I were in the car today and she said to me "Momma, are you speaking to me?"
