“The Gambler”

Tue, 29 Jun 2010 22:27:20 -0400

Tonight after dinner, I was treated to a family performance. Stephen and Henry sang and Darby performed her interpretive dance of the song. The song is “The Gambler” by Fun. Probably our family’s favorite song at the moment.

Cuteness alert!

Honestly, could there be anything cuter?! We were able to meet up with friends and go trick or treating together......too fun!! So, above you see from left to right: Henry the skunk, Kylie the bee, Darby the surgeon and Caleb the tree frog.

Now THAT is one cute skunk!!

My sweet little surgeon:-)

Darby and Kylie, after their lucrative night of trick or treating, checking out the loot! Are they not the sweetest?!

We were a little behind this year. We didn’t carve our pumpkins until the day before Halloween. It was kinda fun though. Might do it that way from now on.

I had a pumpkin to carve and ....

Stephen had one to carve.

The kids used sharpies and drew on the smaller ones. Yep, those markers really are permanent;-)

“Look Henry, I think you can blow on these,” Darby says.
Henry replies, “Phwoooooooooooooh.”

Oops, gotta have a family pic

Last night was the last social worker visit to finish up our requirements for Henry’s adoption....YAY! One of the requirements is for us to send a photo page to China for the officials to see how Henry is doing. And, one of the required pictures was a picture of the whole family. Can you believe that we didn’t have one single picture of our entire family since the 6 month visit back in March?! So, we had to come up with one, and quick! The one above is the one that went to China.

Here are the out-takes.

I love my family.

Is that not the cutest picture?! Kylie was pushing Henry and he was loving it!

Look at my little monkey climbing right behind his sister. Darby is his hero. He does absolutely everything she does. So sweet:-)

Henry is braving the big slide!

Man, I would love to know what they were talking about.

Let us swing!!

The boys taking the girls for a ride.

My baby girl is tired.
