Halloween decorations

I saw this project on a friends blog and just had to do it. It was so easy and fun. The kids love them. At night we use the battery operated candles and they are pretty cool. The original project came from http://www.ourbestbites.com/2009/10/crafty-in-the-kitchen-mason-jar-lanterns/ She used just mason jars and my friend used vases she bought at DI. I used both, I bought the vases at the dollar store and used some I had at home. Logan and Kevin's favorite is the spider though the black doesn't work as well because it's a little too dark.

First day of school

Haley started 2nd grade. She wasn't so excited about going back to school, especially since Grandma was still here and Logan didn't start school till the following week. Despite her protests she had a good time. She wanted us to stay with her and help her line up because she wasn't quite sure where to line up.

Logan started Kindergarten and was very excited to go. He had no fears and did not want daddy to get him to his class, he was sure he could do it on his own. Daddy walked him anyways.
