What better way to start TODAY than with the
PLEDGE of ALLEGIANCE!!!!


As Cloe and I headed down the sidewalk this morning she noticed all the flags our scouts had put in the front yards.
As we walked down the sidewalk she asked if we could say the
Pledge of Allegiance, and then asked which was her right hand?
Then, respectfully and flawlessly she placed her hand over her heart and recited the pledge of allegiance.
 *
 I am so grateful for teachers that still recite the pledge of allegiance with their students.
I still remember having that privilege growing up and and will always be grateful.

catch up.....

Wow...
Lots of catch up.

1st: Cloe got student of the month in school.
they now call it BUILDER of the month.
{helping others and building them up not tearing them down}
we were so Happy!!!!

2nd: HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Cloe was a FLAPPER GIRL!



  
She looked soooo cute!
and LOVED shaking it!! ;)
{Aaron and i made her costume this year not bad without a pattern. but definitely would have changed a few things if I had known what I was doing.} 

Tay and Briar was in the spirit of things and made their own costumes this year as well.

Tay was Kendra





  YES.... she froze!



 Briar  was sorta a clown....?



He looks so Angry and forced.
but he wasn't at all he just doesn't smile for pictures.
He looked soooo AWESOME riding his long board around like that.
I wish I had gotten a picture.

3rd: Wrestling has officially now begun. This Saturday is his first Tournament in Idaho.

4th: Saturday was opening day of the Pheasant hunt.
Big deal around our house.
And this year was even bigger.
 Briar's first year to hunt.
So far he is very disapointed. 
Not only did it snow, it was very cold, wet and muddy AND....
They saw NOTHING!!!! except..... in city limits and..... on the road.
It's been 2 days of hunting and nothing.
I hope their luck changes soon.

5th & finally: Our primary program is next week and Cloe has memorized her part She is very excited.
Hopefully she doesn't get nervous and shy.
