Because he's the calm one

I prefer not to get my arms pulled off and having to apologize to small children, so Moxie was not invited to Halloween at work. Sup, however, had one of the best days evar! I can't even count how many people told him how pretty he is--which is Sup's FAVORITE thing. And the fact that he got pet for about two hours straight means that he was the happiest dog who has ever been happy on Halloween.

If only Moxie could learn to control the crazy.

The Wilcoxes

It's not often that all the Wilcox children are in the same vicinity...well, more appropriately it's not often enough that we get to spend time with Josh and Jess. Thankfully, they have a little R&R this month and are spending a lot of it in Utah. How cute are we in our white and blue? You know that I was really excited to see them because I even went to the football game just to enjoy their company.

Unrelated discovery: Turns out Josh's beard matches my hair color perfectly.

Hobbes in a box

Sundays are always interesting because we're home a lot more than usual. I don't know if this throws our pets for a loop, or if this is really how they spend any given day.

Keeping the peace

We had a full house this weekend with Alexi, Dug, and JJ staying over. All four dogs had a party; however, Alexi was bored out of her mind. Turns out my house isn't all that exciting for teenagers.

Nic seems to be some sort of magnet for all things canine. He hasn't been able to sit in peace for four days--and I'm pretty sure that JJ slept on his head each night. It seems that the only time JJ wasn't attached to Nic was for this picture. I think he had sneaked downstairs to harass the cats...

Semantics

Me: Hey, how come you didn't call me back?
Nic: Sorry, I was putting out a fire.
Me: What, are Cory and Justin arguing or something?
Nic: Babe, I was literally PUTTING OUT A FIRE. I told you I was welding.

Crafty

Per Debbie's request, here is my most recent sewing project. I can't count the number of projects I've started and then promptly forgotten, but this one was different (in that I actually finished it). I think I liked it because it involved very little measuring and a lot of random cutting. Just my style! I got the pattern off of etsy, just in case anyone is interested.

Teenagers!

This picture about sums up how the weekend with Colman and Alexi went. I don't remember when I first turned TOTALLY UNCOOL, but apparently I'm wallowing in the depths of lameness because I couldn't get these two to do a single thing with me this weekend. Movie? No. Shopping? Nope. Do you want to do anything? No, we'll just stay at home and not hang out with you. How about Cafe Rio? Well, you can just order it and bring it home...

Whatever. I say that THEY are the lame ones for not wanting to do anything. We'll just see if this holds up when Josh and Jessica come to visit. My guess is that they'll be a little more motivated to have some fun. Nic and I are just chopped liver I tell you!
