HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

**Sweet Reese sadly passed away yesterday Thursday October 30, 2008.**

It was her first birthday.

Reesie short life was plagued with many surgeries, pokes and more pain than any one person should have to endure. I am in awe of the strength of such a tiny child, and the ability to touch many hearts and lives in such a short amount of time.

Goodbye sweet Reese, we love you and will miss you.

Thought I would post some pics of our porch and pumpkins we did last night.

Allen is like a 10 year old boy with Halloween, he was SO excited to do the Pumpkins. The porch decorations were a "surprise". He planned it all himself!

Our Pumpkins before we got started.

The Master Carver himself

My pumpkins.

The one on the left is supposed to be a tombstone that reads "RIP".
It doesn't look so hot though!

Allen's awesome pumpkins...he actually won a carving contest one year.

*the shirt on the skeleton says "You laugh because I'm different, I laugh because I just farted"....only my husband eh?*

Sorry none of J this time. I forgot to try and get a shot of him from behind.

I stink!

Costume pics of the kids tomorrow.

Makily is "SuperGirl" and Little J is "SuperMan". Cute huh?
We are going to our church for their fall festival with the whole family. It should be SO fun.

*Pray for Makily, she has had a runny nose for about two weeks now and they sent her home from school yesterday since her cough was starting to sound pretty nasty. She was fine this morning and I didn't want her to miss out on the festivities so we sent her with her costume. The kid deserves to have fun and experience EVERYTHING! I am praying that the "snot" clears up and we don't end up with something more serious.*

I am so sorry for Reese's family but am so thankful for Makily. Allen does look like a bright eyed 10 year old in that pic...and the shirt is hilarious! I hope Makily gets better, it sucks when she misses out on holiday!
