Liberty's Got Talent

I know, two posting sessions in one month? I cant believe it either. This just cracks me up, so I had to post it before I forgot about it.

Halloween!

Every year has been extremely different for us here in the midwest. This year the change was welcomed, as we had an amazing, beautiful 65 degree day. Two years ago I think it might have topped out at 30! It was also fun to live in a neighborhood with tons of kids roaming, and family friendly neighbors all out and about. The kids had to be their favorite book character. Blake choose star wars....he is Captain Rex, and Michayla is Cam Jansen, her favorite mystery book series right now (well back then....she has recently started the babysitter club books, and has also formed a club at school....the 5 funky sisters....funny!) Allyson, as you see in the pictures was a repeat this year, a cowgirl. Although she did change the name of her horse to Rose. She is an interesting character. It was her choice completely, which I was very happy about, since I didnt have to get her another costume. Halloween always starts about 2 weeks too soon in my opinion. Its hard to monitor all the candy that comes through the door for those two weeks, but we seem to have made it out unscathed, besides the mounds of candy sitting on our fridge that Brent and I pick from every night:).

Swearing In

We trecked to Jefferson City for Brent to get sworn in. The kids did really well, especially considering they were the only kids in the entire room at the federal courthouse. The buildings were beautiful, and we couldnt have asked for better weather. Brent also got to sign the official Book of attorney's while there. It was a great day! Just as an update, Brent is LOVING his job. He gets to take the Kansas bar in Feb, since we live right on the border of two states, he has to be official in both, so one more test to go! Yehaw! I'm sure once that is done, he will decide to go to medical school....who can live without test taking?
