Prayer Request

My Brother in-law, Leif, was involved in a Construction accident on Wednesday in Seattle. A sand blaster lost control and lifted him 5 feet off the ground while severely burning 2/3rds of his back. He had to be lifted out of the site by a crane. He was taken to Harborview Medical Center Trauma Unit, luckily there were no broken bones or paralysis, but he is undergoing major surgery this morning to remove the sand that is embedded into his skin. He is lucky to be alive and we are grateful that things are not worse than they are. Here is some a link to a slide show and video footage of the scene to give you a better idea. Keep him and his family in your prayers. Thanks!

Beautiful Girl!

Here are some cute recent candids of my sweet sweet daughter that I love so much. ( I know that's all I ever post about, but what can I say, she's my life! ) Isn't she just beautiful!

Clownin around!

We had a wonderful Halloween this year! Maizyn was in heaven. We went to my Mom's neighborhood to go trick or treating with Maizyn's cousin Cecily. It was sooo cute. She absolutely loved it and loved being a clown ( even though she would never actually smile for the camera! ) Here's a picture of pumpkin carvin with my family as well. Fun times. I have more pictures that my Mom took of Maizyn and I, ( I was a cowgirl ) I will post those soon.

Carving Pumpkins!!

Well, with Clay's schedule of working on the weekends, we didn't make it to the Pumpkin Patch this year, but we did make it to Safeway for Family Night and at least got to carve our pumpkins together! Maizyn chose the tiny little 59 cent pumpkins as the one she wanted. We also got her another bigger but still small one to carve. Needless to say, she still wanted us to carve the tiny one too, so we did and it turned out cute!! :) Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the final product of our work, but I will and stay tuned, I will be sure and post them. Here are a few cute ones of our carving experience. Maizyn was loving it! She is really getting into the Halloween spirit. LOVES to see all the pumpkins on the porches of everyone houses... and of course, she's two, so she loves to dress up any chance she gets. My sister, Heather got her a clown wig the other day and she loves to wear it around the house and act like a goofball... Anyways, here are the pictures. Don't mind the mattress in the background, we just got a new bed the same day and are still in the process of getting rid of our old one! :)
