A SPECIAL DAY!

Today is my birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! Yes, I am STILL 29! :)

DID WE JUST FEEL OUR FIRST EARTHQUAKE TONIGHT???

YES! We did! (Well, the kids and I did, Rodge has felt a few others.) There were actually 2 in our area tonight! I found this info about one of them: A moderate earthquake occurred at 8:18:42 PM (PST) on Friday, December 5, 2008. The magnitude 5.5 event occurred 26 km (16 miles) WNW of Ludlow, CA. The hypocentral depth is 6 km ( 4 miles).

HALLOWEEN 2008

Today at school was Crazy Hair Day! Then we had some friends over to pass out Halloween candy and go trick-or-treating with us. Here are a few picture from our day/night. Yes, the Tarantula is real. This is the first time we've seen one in the wild and of all nights to see it, Halloween! It was crawling up a house in our neighborhood! Savannah made up her costume and said that she was Queen of Spiders, so to see the Tarantula on Halloween just made her costume idea even cooler. Guess, we should have had her hold it for the picture. NOT!!!!!!! LOL

Pumpkin Carving

Here's some pictures of the kids carving their pumpkins. This is always a favorite thing for them to do near Halloween.

Tenna's new shirt

Here's a picture of Tenna with her new shirt. The kids were so excited to get this for her. Tenna seemed to even like it herself.

It says, "DIVA DOG USMC."
