Yesterday Jimmy had a football game. We got there set up our chairs and sent Jimmy over to join his team. It was very cold! The wind was blowing and we were all wrapped up in blankets and coats. I was wishing I had a warm fuzzy hat! We were only there maybe 10 min and the boys were messing around. Jimmy and another boy ended up colliding into each other and Jimmy smashed his face into the other boys head. He came running over to me holding his face. He had a bloody nose and once we got that under control he mentioned his mouth was hurting also. So I looked in his mouth and Ahhhhhhh his front tooth was half gone!! So we called our dentist and just had to leave a message because it was after hours. He decided he just wanted to go home and not play in the game. So we were on our way home and our awesome dentist called and said to bring him in and he would look at it. He was able to fix it like new! You can't even tell it was ever broken. Luckily it didn't brake into the nerve or he would have had to do a root canal. Always an adventure!

Here is our Halloween pictures! The boys were all ninjas and Sarah was a pirate girl. Dustin kept telling people him and Cameron were twins because of their matching costumes but most of them took it literally because they are the same size. It was lots of fun walking them around with them. We only had Cameron and Dustin this year. Sarah and Jimmy went with friends.

I just realized I never did an updated post on the puppies! We have sold all of them. Yeah! They were of course super fun to play with but I think we found them all really great homes.
This is 5 weeks old 
This is about 7 weeks old. We only had four by then.
I gave Sadie a hair cut yesterday...she looks so funny! I only got her half done so I am going to finish her today and then I shall post the results!!! Hahahaha

So annoying!! Can I just say every time I talk to anyone that has to deal with DCFS I just get more and more pissed off! I just received an email accusing Troy and I of taking Alexis to visit everyone when we had her and took her to the zoo! Trust me we went to great lengths to follow the "rules" but yet crap like this is going on! But yet the crack heads they deal with on a daily basis do nothing wrong! I sooo don't get it! I am so frustrated!!!! You know if you people don't trust us to follow the rules and take care of her then don't flippin let us take her!!! I am so sick of being accused of crap that never happened. And yet Alexis has to put up with BS every day of her life! Her mom is a druggie and a whore. Her dad is a druggie and a criminal. I just feel so bad for her. I pray every day that things will work out for her and she will be watched over. Lord knows we have tried our best to help her and will continue to do so to the best of our abilities.

This picture was taken the day Alexis came home with us.
This one was taken the day she left.
What a difference!!!
Alexis we love you!!! Hang in there!!!

 We went to SLC to visit Alexis and WOW what a weekend. I wont go into details because I have talked to most of you but I will say I am sooo happy to be home!
 We went Hogle Zoo for the day and it was lots of fun! The kids rode the carousel and the train. We sat in the front row on the left hand side of the stadium for the bird show and had birds fly right over our heads! Mainly Troy's head! The kids had lots of fun and I think I took about 100 pictures!
Jimmy just loves his picture being taken!
This thing was pacing back and forth right in front of the glass. It turned as I took the picture so it looks like it is going to eat Dustin!!! I showed him the picture after I took it and his eyes about popped out of his head! :)
Sarah and Alexis were pretty much inseparable. Sarah carried her almost all day!
I am so glad we were able to spend they day with Alexis. I was worried she wouldn't want to go with us. She was a little shy at first but she warmed right up and we had lots of fun!
This is my favorite picture! I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants! You have to admit that gorilla is pretty perky! :)

I was so excited to go to Walgreen's today! I found some really great prices and was so totally excited at what I was able to find. As you know we have 5 puppies, 2 dogs and a rat all living in our house right now. So it gets a little smelly now and then so I have been on the lookout for a candle or air freshener of some sort. So when I went to Walgreen I found the Air Wick i-motion on sale for 50% off which made them $3.99 and yeah me I had a $4.00 off coupon!!!! So I got 2 for FREE!!!! The 3 bottles of dish soap were also FREE!! I love FREE!!!
So I ended up with 4 tubes of toothpaste 6.4 oz size with free trial sizes included with each one. 4 packages of Trident gum. 3 small bottles of dish soap. 2 Air Wick i-motion smelly things. 1 toothbrush. :)
Total cost out of pocket $3.38
SCORE!!!!!
