Happy Halloween

Once again another Halloween has past... It this is my first real post since last Halloween.   We have been busy!  We had an addition to our family! Ryen Elizabeth Slack cam into our home and our hearts.  She is a very happy little girl who seems to be a foodie in the making!  Jace is almost 3 1/2 and getting so grown up!   

 I guess this is usually done in January but I will do one now:

 Year in review  Oct '10-Oct "11

• Tasha started school part time Mostly online but I have 9 credits this semester
• Mike is in his 2nd to Last semester 5 Classes and 3 of them have 2 hour labs once a week.  So he has crazy long days.
• Ryen Elizabeth was Born May 9th around 7pm  6lbs 13oz, 20 inches long... lots of black hair.  She is now on the verge of crawling. (she gets up on all 4's but hasn't figures out how to propel forward yet.)
• Jace turned 3 one June 12th and Had a nice little party at his Mamma's and Papa's house.
• We visited California and saw Nana, Papa, Grandma Honey, Aunt Lisa and Lianah and Larry, Grandpa Roy, Grandma Ronie and her dog Ruby! 
• Jace went on his first real(ish) roller coaster and got to see Lake Tahoe.
• We went on a day trip to Yellowstone park and hoped to see bears but we were a bit disappointed!

That's about all I can think of right now... or have pictures for!

Actual new post coming soon (yes, I know it has been a year)

Halloween '10

What a great halloween !!!!  Michael and I spent the morning carving pumpkins then we got him dressed/wrapped.  Then came the hard part... Getting Jace into his costume!  Not a difficult costume to put on, but my boy has a very specific opinion on everything and he did NOT want to wear it.  He started to scream "No, No, All Done!!! All Done!!! oFFF"   Pulling and tugging.  But I have faith!   I know if I get someone telling him it looks good and he feels good in it, we Might be golden!    Then we start trick or treating and he is scared to death of the neighbors.  Fortunately once Mike joined us Jace had all the confidence in the world.  He mastered the technique of holding up his bucket and saying "tweat" and the "elcome" is what he says for thank you. So cute.   I gave up and headed home,  Two hours later, Mike and Jace come running up the street happy as can be!!!
