Our Halloween

I'm not a big fan of dressing up my kids for halloween, so the job is given to someone else every year. This year my mother in law and sister were gullible enough to do the job.

Thanks, Tami and Hol.
I also hate the gross costumes that kids want to be, how do you not let your kids be something totally gross and scary for halloween? This year Cam wouldn't be something cute. He wanted gross. And you know what I didn't end up caring, Tami did his costume, and he loved it. So Scary it up! I'll Take the "whatever you want" approach and it's stress free.

Easy Halloween = Happy mom.

Mostly for my HERMISTON fans...

My sister-in-law has a super ear for good music. And has recently got this celebrity to sing in Pasco. This event will be the party of the year and would be a great girls night out! Buy your tickets here NOW. She is almost sold out!

park outing

Darcie Alleman senior night.

Last home game in the DAWG HOUSE. Bittersweet.

See the ref with a huge mop of red hair? Yeah she hates Hermiston with a passion and she isn't ashamed to show it. The last girl of the Alleman legacy to have to listen to her rotten calls and see her giant booty up on that stand.

RIP RED.

We love you bop. Good job sticking with it all four years.

You are a super Athlete.

EWU football game

We saw Eastern play Northern Arizona. We whooped up on em.

Mitch and I got a babysitter, and pretended to be young college students. Our favorite part was eating at a little hole in the wall italian joint in spokane afterward. They have the BEST stuffed mushrooms I've ever had!

A regular day

This is what our neighborhood looks like on these fall days. Couple of boys riding bikes and brady chillin' on the porch. He hated it at first but has now settled into his fate of being penned up. It is clear at night making no cloud cover and frost is showing up on the grass. Last night it got down to 30. Brrrrrrrr. Will I survive here this winter?

Last night I went to the EWU volleyball game. I got in free (because I am officially a student here now. yay for me). I got a piece of free pizza for coming to the game (poor attendance), and found a spot to sit. I remember my dad taking me to boys bb games when I was young and sitting with my friends as far up in the stadium seating as we could go. It brought back some good memories. Later the arena got more and more packed and I realized I was sitting in the "student" section. I didn't mean to do that and I felt MEGA SUPER old. I was almost embarrassed that I was lone-ing it trying to fit in. I moved to a different seat and enjoyed watching the girls play. During "half-time", they had students come down to the court and serve. Whatever prize they hit on the other side they got to keep. I was in. I love free stuff.

So I stepped up to the line...and missed my serve. I know, kill me now huh?

My second serve was like old times and I actually hit a pizza box and won a coupon for a free pizza (too bad it's really gross pizza).

I felt cool.

Mitch stayed home with the boys and let me have a night off.

It was a super time-out for mom.
