My new ride


Just jammin

Check out my musical family! Holland has been taking drum lessons with my dad and is really good! I have no idea where her coordination comes from, but she's got it. She wanted her own set of drums to be able to practice on at home. We thought a set of electric ones would be great because you can plug headphones into them, bang your heart out, and not rattle the pictures on the wall. But, Holland really wanted a set of real drums, so we got these red ones from my dad. I hope she sticks with it because she truly has the talent for it!

Payton decided that she wanted to learn how to play the guitar, so she takes lessons with Mr. Steve. He's so wonderful with kids and really makes it fun for her to learn. She's fabulous, as well, and seems to have an ear for music. She has the basics down and has already moved on to chords. She'll be providing the Christmas music this year :) Even Scott's getting in on the action and is teaching himself how to play. So....that leaves me driving the bus. I'm tellin ya - watch out Partridge family!!

Enjoying the Weekend!

Here are pics from Halloween - Payton & her friend, Meghan with their first grade teacher, Mrs. Wiegel. We still love and miss her soooo much!!
Payton looks pretty dangerous in her gangster get-up, huh?? I wouldn't want to cross her in a dark alley!! :)Saturday night we went to PF Changs with Brad & Brandi. They have a baby on the way (3 weeks!!), so we wanted to get out together while we still could. Brandi looks so cute. Makes me sick. Everyone's face should double in size when they're pregnant like mine did. Anyway, the food was yummy and the company was so fun!!

Another beautiful day for a hike! And Scott is such a good dad to take the girls out and do that with them. They had fun, but wouldn't stop talking about the snake that Scott threw a rock at and made mad. I'm so glad I got to miss that!
