one of the most undocumented days


i was sick october 22nd through the 26th ...beyond sick with some mutated form of the flu! on the 26th (which just happened to be my birthday) i woke up to a really nice surprise from jeff. there was candy all over the family room floor and in the middle of it all there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a card and the ever most sacred soap opera digest?!?!? oh and as i walked/stumbled down the stairs there was a big happy birthday sign above my head. the sad part was that jeff left that morning to go golfing and i was still on my death bed and all i could think about was, "how am i going to clean all of this up"?
the kids jumped to the rescue and and cleaned it up AND got themselves ready for school AND got themselves breakfast. i had to call amber to pick the kids up for school. i slept the whole day away and i don't even know what poor tatum did the whole time.
my point is this: i am really good at documenting what happens in our lives through pictures and i totally didn't this time. oh well there will be other years.
this is what i got:
flowers from jeff
flowers from mom
flowers from amie
flowers from ashley, kristin, sarah and amber
kidnapped by the above girls for a morning of breakfast and much needed pampering!
lunch with christine
all in all it worked out to be a great birthday after all. by the way i'm 32 :)
that night was our ward trunk or treat and if you can believe it these are all of the pictures i got.
tatum was not a fan of the LOUD halloween music coming out of our car so this is how she looked most of the night. poor thing!

this is our sweet friend katelyn!
i think jeff looks hot in this picture! great colors on him. i'm just sayin. :)
unfortunately, there will be more pictures with costumes to come.
i was over halloween before oct. 31st.
