HALLOWEEN 2008

Clark Kent-Dad, Spiderman-Nathan, Incredible Hulk-Ashton, Bat woman-Raegan, Super Girl-Sydney....

AS you can see we were Super Heroes! O my Gosh it was hilarious! When Lonnie first saw me all dressed up he laughed so hard he cried!!

Of course Lonnie being the super conservative!, his costume is too!

Wonder Woman- of course ME!!

Checking out the loot!

Seriously! Ashton looks like he already had too much!

I must say that this year we had AWESOME weather! I wore my costume without freezing! My kids were actually getting HOT! We were so grateful!

Next year we are already thinking of doing the Peanuts Gang!

REALLY??!!! Is that all you have?

The best thing "they" can come up with is an issue about her clothes???? If I were her I would not have even wasted my time even discussing it!
How does he even have the ballz to say something like that when he has been linked to a National Terrorist!!! COME ON!!!

SERIOUSLY!! ??

He makes me want to puke!!

It must be flu season?

Nathan came down with "something" three weeks ago and it has come and gone day by day. Then Monday night when I put him to bed he had a raging fever! I held him all day Tuesday! Literally he would not let me put him down! By Wednesday he felt better but was tired. No fever. Then Wednesday after school both girls came home saying they had headaches and both had fevers! They both fell asleep on the couch and slept all night until the morning, occasionally waking up for a bathroom break and a drink of water.
Thursday- both girls felt much better with no fever. Nathan felt better also. So I allowed Raegan to go to a birthday party of a good friend at Great Wolfe Lodge! After the party she had another good friend stay the night! BIG mistake! She woke up this morning had a 103.5 fever!!!! So did Sydney!! Her friend went home and she went back to bed! She has not moved for at least 10 hours!
Back to Nathan! He tossed and turned from 2 am til 4:30 am with a 102 fever! We slept until 9:10 am this morning! When I came downstairs Ashton and Sydney were asleep on the couch! His play date was coming at 9:45!!
He is feeling better today, hopefully tonight will go better!

It has been a crazy crazy day!

Then Lonnie sends me a text letting me know that he too is sick!! Great!? I will never get a shower!!

All I am left with is being grateful that I am not sick! At least they all have someone to care for them!!

Another funny note! We have two 1/2 rolls of TP and Ashton has "diarrhea"!! Is that Murpheys Law or MOMS law? What should we call it?
(so thank you Liz for the TP!!)

Super cute dude!

Nathan is three. He says the most adorable things! Today we were driving to the airport and saw a very old classic "Ranch Wagon". It seriously was probably the first station wagon/suburban type car! We could not tell what make of car it was it just said "Ranch Wagon"!
We are checking it out and Lonnie was saying what a "classic" and Nathan corrected him and said " NO, Daddy, it is an old fashioned car"

Indeed it was!

Where he pulled this out from I will never know! First of all you can barely understand what he says. That made it even more adorable! Lonnie can NEVER understand anything he says, I always have to interpret!

Please check out my earlier posting!

Back wards Thinking

Now that the election is just a few weeks away.... We are getting really nervous!!
Why?? The back ward's thinking of the liberals on the economy and taxes!!

What gives? I don't get it! Of course a lot of my middle income families like this idea of making the people who make more than $250grand pay more taxes!! It isn't going to affect their incomes!

It makes more sense to cut taxes across the board... OB*** wants to keep jobs from going to China??? Hello! Then don't tax the s**t out of big business so they HAVE to move their companies for cheaper labor! Instead he wants to tax them more. So I have no idea how the heck he is going to get all those companies back.

Here is how this directly affects my family! WE are self business owners! Small business! Our business makes just right around $250grand a year! That is NOT what we get to bring home for our own personal use! We have overhead! paying rent, bills, business loans, employees, maintenance, et c.!!! We paid almost $20,000 in taxes last year!! Let me repeat that $20,000!!!! That was after we filed we had to come up with that amount and pay! Not what they took out all year!
I heard some "bob" guy on American Newsroom this morning say that people in this income bracket could "afford" to pay a little more in taxes!! Why doesn't he come on over to my house and lets talk about how that tax affects my Personal income. The more we have to pay the less I get to bring home that year.....in turn affecting the economy! I have to pinch pennies for groceries, clothes and for all the necessities. I buy less gas and try not to drive anywhere! Plus my mortgage went up an extra $200 a month, Why? Because of TAXES!!!!!!

Our solution: either make less money and make major cutbacks, therefore affecting the economy(and not in a good way)
OR work our aces off to make up for the taxes. ( that would mean we would NEVER EVER see my husband!) Then it affects the relationships of our family! gezzzz!!''
See why I'm scared!

So, to all the liberal "thinkers" ! You have it backwards! Tax less! So that EVERYONE benefits! Tax the big business less so that you can keep your employees and they can have their jobs and feed their families! IT IS a trickle! That works! It does not make sense to have all of these people loose jobs and get "assistance"??! How does that help the economy! Fund all the programs for handouts!! Put all these people on a "fixed" income! Yea! That really works?!!!

Instead let's PUNISH those who work hard for their money! He says to share the wealth!! Yes, that doesn't mean that we should hand out to every person who "chooses" to live off of the government! I do my share of charity and contributions! We pay our tithes, give to charity, WE GIVE to those less fortunate! But not to the point where it is going to put us on the streets ...all "for working hard".

He acts like every American that makes enough money to support their family and then some! Should "share the wealth"...and that means to be taxed to death and that money goes to funding for ...I don't even need to say it!
