Camryn's very FIRST 5k... in the freezing rain!

        It really was FREEZING!  The rain didn't let up.  In fact, I think it got worse as the race progressed.  We were drenched, we were frozen, but we had a GREAT time!  The entire race Camryn kept whispering, "I hope Dad comes, I hope Dad's here, I hope Dad makes it."  Dave had several places to be at once this particular morning and the younger girls had a primary program practice, so we weren't sure that they'd make it in time.  Right before we saw Dave Camryn said, "Mom, I don't think I can sprint to the finish line like I did in the practice run."  Just seconds later we passed by Dave and the little girls cheering and with a huge smile on her face Camryn looked back at her Dad and then  just took off in a sprint to the finish.  I hope that Dave is always able to give her that support she longs for.  I dream that she will always want him around as much as she wanted him there for her that day.  They share a special bond those two!  




 She was excited to earn a medal and she worked hard for it!  She totally deserved it!
Picture with her biggest fans taken by her other biggest fan, her Dad!  I am proud of you Camryn for making a goal and working hard enough to achieve it.

Trick or Treat 2010

Bryleigh made the cutest rainbow witch I have ever seen!

Strike a pose!
Jamie makes one gorgeous gypsy! She was so excited to wear LARGE hoop earrings. It was the highlight of her week, at least until the candy feast began.

Camryn was Dracula's wife and he's sure lucky to have such a beauty for a wife! She enjoyed all the "dark, real mama makeup".
Me with my "twin". Bryleigh wanted to be "twin sisters" with me.
Each girl drew out what they wanted their jack-o-lantern to look like and dad took the time to bring their vision to life!

Make a scary face!
