Beep Beep & Bo Bop

So..... being in a car accident in very scary, and really really not fun.  But an awesome new car makes up for a lot =) This is my beautiful new Honda Pilot!!!!  Tyson spoiled me... but I like it!  Inside it has leather seats and a sunroof. The back seat has it's own airconditioner. But the best part is the third row of seats that we can lower for more storage in the back or lift so grandma and grandpa can drive in our car with us!

 Our fun pumpkins! We took the kids to a pumpkin patch and let them each pick their own pumpkin. The rule was that they each had to be able to carry it on their own.  That lasted for about 5 minutes, then Ty went and got the car and brought it to us instead. The super knobly pumpkins were really hard to carve! Ty broke out the drill but we ended up just putting in circles. 

 Costumes!!! I am actually impressed with myself that anything got pulled off at all this year.  It's a good thing my kids are so sweet and patient. But Tanner had to be the cutest Robot EVER!!!!  THose are glowstick on the sides of his robot head.  Brooklyn was a Ballet Fairy, and Cristine was a Cowgirl. 

 Tanner is watching me do the blog and says "Mom! You took a picture! See me? I was grumpy?!" Haha He didn't want to stop to get his picture taken. Still SO Cute!!

 For the school parade they needed to be dressed as a character in a book and then carry the books around with them.  Cristine is looking in my direction, but still didn't see me standing right in the very front.

 Brooklyn didn't see me either! I'm not that short.. am I?

 Yep.. Tanner doesn't see me either.  You can see the teacher on the right dressed as madeline.  All the grade teachers dressed in matching outfits. IT was really fun to see how creative they are! my favorite  was the third grade teachers who were fancy nancy.. each dressed up unique to a different book like fancy nancy the explorer and such. 

As for me... I had a series of MRI's done last week, and the doctor thinks I may have the same blood clotting disorder as my Dad.  So I got 14 ... yes you read that right... 14 vials of blood taken for testing and we will know those results on a few weeks.  There are a lot of changes at work for Ty.  The company hired a new set of managers from GE to come over to Halliburton and change everybody's jobs. Same pay.. hopefully less stress. He is switching to a new position where he will be in charge of the research and engineering of new products before they are started.  He will be deciding if the new idea is viable or not, will it make money,  how much will this cost the company etc...  Thats all for now.... Love you all!!!
