FIRE FUN!!!!

Bonfire!!!!

We went out to Scenic Arizona for Grandma Briscoe's Birthday

I cannot remember which one but she is 97 or 98 yrs old.
Bruce's parents had done a lot of cleanup on their property
And had a lot of wood to burn as well as rolls of carpet.
They lit it and boy was it hot. I didn't get any pictures before though
and I wish I had. Just to give you a hint of how high the pile was
It was taller than my home. The above picture the kids are throwing
wooden sticks into the fire to watch them burn.
You can see Bruce's parents home really well from
Mesquite-especially from the freeway. They sent out the fire department
and his parents had already called them and told them there would be a
really large fire out at their home. I guess they thought that the fire was to big-
so they sent out firefighters and policemen to make sure that it didn't get out of hand.
This above picture we are eating our hot dogs.
This was also just as wide as my home if not wider.This is after it had burned down quite a bit-so we broke out
the hotdogs, salads, pop and marshmellows and did some roasting.

We all had so much fun, Some of Bruce's cousins came that

we hadn't seen in forever and they had some of their kids with them.

We will definately have to do that again

This picture we had to make a smaller fire by the

big one because the big one was too hot to roast by.

I think there were a few people who got some eyelashes

and hair fried. When they first lit the fire. I was standing 50 feet

away and I could still feel the heat.

I added this picture for fun. We had a baby shower here at

my house and one of the games included stuffing a pillow up

your shirt and acting like you were pregnant, ever since then

when the kids see a balloon they stuff it up their shirts. Sariah in

this picture looks just really funny especially with Sariah having

the beads around her neck.

Now I challenge each of you to make a list

Husband's dream

Since my husband is a mechanic his dream has been

to fix up this car he got as a graduation gift from his Dad.

It is a 1941 Plymouth

This is his baby. And it runs off the original engine.

Bruce painted it in high school as part of an automotive class

he took. Ever since then he hasn't had much time to deal with it.

He has now sand blasted it, received all new windows for it, and

it currently is at a guys home who does body work. He is trading the

body work by working on this guys car. Hopefully he can get it back

to partially normal soon, and then he can put it in car shows, which is

a dream of his. I pray everyday we can somehow come up with the

money so he can restore it, and little by little things come up so it will

get to where he wants it to be.

Halloween was fun but we didn't have as fun this year.

Bruce's uncle passed away in Idaho so he went to the funeral

and took Jacob with him. Me and the girls went to Enoch and stayed

with my sister Denise.

Becca was Hannah Montana

Mitzy was Gabriella from High School Musical

Sariah was Santa's helper

This is with her cousin Rachael who was a lady bug.

Sariah watching t.v and waiting to go trick or treating.

Jacob was Superman these were taken at his

preschool just before he left for Idaho.

This is Mitzy, Becca, Cousin Amie(little blue riding hood),

and Cousin Cecellia(Cinderella).

CAUGHT!

I caught Sariah in the refrigerator the other

day and this is what she did when I caught her.

What a cutie--I couldn't get mad at her.

EWWWWWWWWW

The kids like to take off their Shirts while carving pumpkins

Sariah was wondering why I was telling her to make a mess.

Jacob didn't dare at first but then thought it was cool

Mitzy had way to much fun.

End result 6 pumpkins carved.

Jacob's birthday

Jacob had a bug themed 5th birthday!

This was my first attempt to decorate a cake

I think he turned out okay for my first time.
The cake started to fall apart because he was
so massive. He blew out his candles on the second try.

We had a pinata- I made this and I think he turned out

pretty cute.

Jake loves thomas and one of his friends gave him a

thomas reader book.

We had bug cupcakes--The bugs are plastic.

We ran out of springles and had to use

sugar sprinkles on the rest of them.

He got some more Thomas trains from Mom and Dad

This is what he got from his Grandpa in Idaho.

It is a table with a drawer underneath to hold

all of his trains. Wonderful for mom and it fits

in his room. He loved his birthday.
