Trunk-R-Treat

We had our Trunk-R-Treat last night, we had a great time. I let my kids think of what they wanted to be, and use the stuff from around our house. I figured we have a lot of costumes around the house they could come up with something. David wanted to be Darth Vador, it was a costume Cameron wore a few years ago. Cameron wanted to be a mummy, so we tore up sheets and wrapped them around him. I bet you'll never guess what Marlise wanted to be, hint(I.'m a barbie girl in a barbie world) ya you guessed it, a barbie. I bought her a blond wig, but she didn't want to wear it. I tried to get her creative juices flowing, but she didn't want anything to do with what I suggested (teenagers).

Picture Tag

My Sister In Law Brenda tagged me to post the 9th picture in my 7th folder. Here it is:

I just had David, he was not even a week old, so of course I'm sleeping. Now he's four almost five, crazy!

I now tag Amy, Michelle, Marlise, Becky, and Bev. Go to your 5th folder and post your third picture and explain it. Then tag four people.

Ice Blockin Is So Utah

So my friend Amy was telling me she went ice blocking with her kids, and I decided that I wanted to take my kids to go ice blocking also. I went a few times as a teenager in Utah and it was a ton of fun!! So I wanted to make it a "family night" with our family here. We had a picnic and then did a ton of ice blocking. The funnest part was when we did a train with all of us (except Mark and Brian). We would all crash before we hit the bottom, some would lose their ice block and still go sliding without it. We missed Eric and Brenda and the kids, maybe we'll have to go again sometime so they can come. :)

My Night of the Curse (#5)

I decided to go on a ride along last night with Mark. Mark's mom came to sleep over with our kids, and I was free to go all night. This was my fifth time going, and I thought I would break my curse, since it's been a year since my last ride along. The curse is, I go on a ride along and we hear crickets all night long (in other words, it's totally dead). Both of his brothers have ridden along, and had lots of action and cool stuff going on. So I was crossing my fingers that I would get to see some action and break my curse.

So off I went to work last night with Mark. We got there, they had briefing, and then we got in the patrol car to go find some people to pull over. Mark got called to some calls where someone pushed the emergency button, and didn't answer when the police were called. He has to go to the place where they pushed the button and make sure no one is hurt or in trouble. So it was pushed in a new apartment resort place on campus (and it was like a really nice resort you would pay big money to stay at somewhere). I was impressed with it, and I was almost wanting to go back to College days and be able to live there (ALMOST).

Then Mark pulled over a couple people for expired tags, but nothing panned out, we did get to drive with lights and sirens for a whole five seconds. Mark got called to some dorm rooms for marjiuna smell, but the Mark and the other officer didn't find anything. I did get to see a dorm room, which was nice, and Mark said it was not like the usuall messy ones.

Then we got bored and I told Mark I was sad that I didn't get to see him handcuff someone, so he handcuffed me (they wanted to put me in the back of the patrol car, but I had to draw the line somewhere). So around two in the morning, I was tired and decided to go to sleep in their zzzz room, of course right after I went in there to go to sleep, they got a DUI and some other fun stuff that I was sleeping through of course. So I still have a curse, and one of these times I'm going to break it.
