Our Pemberley: Halloween

Nov 10, 2007

Halloween

So, this was our Halloween this year. The boys were cowboys (costume materials cost less than $15 for both - we are on a budget, people). Greg did their "faces" and I did the vests . . . good thing the camera doesn't catch my HAND-SEWN work. lol, it was pretty pathetic. FYI - I know that cowboys don't carry machine guns or Star Wards blasters, but we pulled from what we had at home. :)
Olivia was a Bumble bee - my sister found the costume at a garage sale for $3. The kid was able to sleep at or church Fall Festival - lucky thing.

the boys looked awesome!!! Love the coyboy costumes.....THAT was SO Josh!!! Looks like you all (except Oliva) enjoyed the Fall Festival.....our ward cancelled ours......(not happy in this ward but I am trying) So instead we went to another Ward's (by invitation) and we were so happy to be there. We met a ton of new families out age.....and the girls still got to have fun for Halloween. Here they do the Trunk or treat ON halloween to keep the kids off the streets.; Tuesday, 13 November, 2007

Mothers Who Know

Mothers Who Know Do Less
Mothers who know do less. They permit less of what will not bear good fruit eternally. They allow less media in their homes, less distraction, less activity that draws their children away from their home. Mothers who know are willing to live on less and consume less of the world's goods in order to spend more time with their children—more time eating together, more time working together, more time reading together, more time talking, laughing, singing, and exemplifying. These mothers choose carefully and do not try to choose it all. Their goal is to prepare a rising generation of children who will take the gospel of Jesus Christ into the entire world. Their goal is to prepare future fathers and mothers who will be builders of the Lord's kingdom for the next 50 years. That is influence; that is power.
