Father Son Time

When we were down at Anthony's parents house, he and his Dad went fishing.

Anthony's 10 lb. cat fish

I don't know what that one is ,But I think it's a cat fish too. Yeah he cought a fish!

Camping ??

Grandma Carla and I took the boy's to The Bass Pro Shop to get their picture taken with Santa Clause. I have never been but it was really cool. They had this huge fish tank with lost of big fish.

This is one of the thousand stuffed animals they had there. It was pretty cool!

Fun At BPS

They had a bunch of 4-wheelers and Carmine picked the pink one.

Then he decided that he was a boy and got on the red one! Thank goodness.

Here is Carmine with Santa. He didn't know what to think of him, But at least he sat there, unlike Braxton who cried the whole time.

WII

We were all playing the bowling game on the Wii. Carmine wanted to play so Grandma helped him out.

He got so excited every time the ball get close to the pins and then...

......He would watch the ball hit the pins and break out in celebration!

He would jump up and down and yell "Yeah we did it" and hi five everyone. It was so cute to watch. He is so funny. I will have you know that I am the undefeated champ of Wii bowling! Thank you! (but my arm was so sore for 2 days straight)

Braxton doing the Wii Fit

Anthony doing the Wii Fit hula hoop. It was hilarious, but he is the second best at it.

Dog Food

I left for the store and Anthony was watching the boy's and this is what I came home too. Carmine and Braxton playing in the dog food.

And when I asked Anthony why they were doing it he said he knew, but it was keeping them busy. Nice one hunny!

Gold Fish RIP

This is Fish and Orange Carmine's and Braxton's gold fish. (they named them themselves)

I brought them home one day and surprised them. They were so excited and wanted to look at them all the time.

Then 24 hours later I found one dead and then another couple hours later the other one died. It's a good thing that the boys are young and don't remember very much because the next day I think they had forgotten about them. Rest In Peace Fish and Orange!

Costumes???

So this is what we dressed our boys in for Halloween. Do you like It?

Of course this was Anthony's idea.

Pumpkin Carving

So today was pumpkin carving day! Here is the before picture.

Braxton dove right in to the pumpkin guts, Carmine wasn't so sure about it. It took some convincing.

As you can see on his face he really didn't like it.

He did like to help and separate the seeds. Braxtons attention span is not very long, as you can see.

The boys watching Daddy as he put the pumpkins outside

This is Anthony's pumpkin. Can you guess who it is? It's Blue from Blue's Clues. The boys loved it!

And this is my pumpkin.

Candy

I was getting the candy ready for our trick-or-treaters and I thought I would let the boys help.

You be the judge of how well that went.....

Needless to say they never really helped me.

Happy Halloween

Here is Braxton as the cutest skunk ever!!!!

I loved his block nose, but he kept wiping it so I had to take it off. At least I got a picture of it.

Waiting for the fun to start!

Trick-Or-Treat

Halloween Costumes

The back of their cute costumes. If you couldn't tell, Carmine is a Dragon.

Family picture before a night of Trick-Or-Treating.

Long Night

This is the boys after a long night of trick-or-treating.

As you can see Carmine was exhausted!

After Halloween Party

Anthony and I went to an after Halloween party on the 1st. We wore non-traditional costumes which we made ourselves. Anthony's costume actually gave you change for your dollar, and if you put a quarter in my costume, you really did get a peep show!

I gave the other guests more than they had bargained for with their 25 cents. Needless to say, we also won the costume contest!

Phone

As a lot of you may know Carmine has been wanting to talk on the phone recently. I thought I would give you a visual as you are sharing a very intellectual conversation with him.
