Watch out Coneheads here comes the Bucketheads!

The boys on Saturday night decided that they not only wanted to have buckets but that they needed to but them on their heads.  They walked around with the buckets on their heads for a good portion of the evening.  It was dark outside by the time they decided to take off the buckets!

Trying to navigate to the outside with a bucket on your head can be tricky!
Will switches to a different bucket
Here he is screaming into the second bucket.  I am not sure as to why, but it kept him happy and occupied for a while so I was happy!

Me and my bucket head baby!

My Matchie Match Boys

The boys have this pair of pajamas that match.  I think they look so cute in their Matchie Jammies  that I had to take pictures of it last time they wore them at the same time.  They didn't want me to take pictures of them in their jammies so these are on the sly and not the best pictures in the world but they sure are cute!

Seriously you can just feel the displeasure that I am taking their picture in this picture!
Stop taking my picture and just read us stories!
Picking out what stories they want read for bed time!

Google talk

Today I finally got google talk downloaded and we used it to talk with Grandma Bennett!!  It was so wonderful.  Lil'Will thought it was such a hoot!  He loved being able to talk with her and show her things.  It took him a minute to warm up but then it was fun!  So I am begging all of you who have a computer with a webcam to please either get a google account or something so that we can video chat with you all.  I think since our family is so spread out it will be a good way for all the cousins to actually get a chance to know one another.  It will be so much fun!!  seriously so if you have the option please do this so we can all have fun together!

more bucket wearing fun!
Lil'Will loves pretending and here he was pretending that it was halloween.  He made us put rocks in his treat bag and tell him Happy Halloween!!  While he would then say trick or treat.  I know backwards, but he loved it!
Baby James getting in on the halloween fun!
Such a happy trick or treater!

Time spent with Grandpa Juenger

We had a great time with Grandpa while he was here with us.  We went to the park, picked up cousin Trent, saw the air show, went to the Red Rock canyon and of course a lot more time at the park.  I of course forgot to bring the camera at most of these events so I only have a few pictures of while he was here with us.  The boys loved having someone to wrestle and play with they also loved how Grandpa was always outside with them.  They didn't need mommy to be outside for an entire week!  We had a lot of fun and look forward to when we get to visit him in New York!

Lil'Will is showing us his cool trick of going down the slide backwards!
James going down correctly
Of course the slide is only fun if you can go up the slide as well as down it.
Grandpa has a habit of wondering off so he tends to dress in flashy colors so we can always find him.  Well he saw that we have these glow in the dark orange hats from when we worked the Nascar races last year and he had to wear it for when we went to the air show.  Baby James thought it was the coolest!
Grandpa in his glow in the dark clothes!

Pictures of our veteran!

So I know that I wanted to post this on Tuesday but obviously that didn't happen so I am posting it now.  William has recently sent me some pictures.  So what a better way to celebrate Veteran's Day than with pictures of our very own veteran!  

William and his group recently found this mortar.  Again it is a very big find.  They found it in a corn field.
Here he is with the dismount guys in the corn field where they found the mortar.
Resting in a mud building
here he is looking through the window in the mud hut
Again with his dismount crew, no I don't know what that means, that is the Tigeris river behind them.
yes this is my husband with his head in a hole!  No he isn't an ostrich, he is the super smart one looking for anything hidden in the dark scary hole!
Will in front of the Tigeris river
A good picture of his face.  This is the Army uniform
Here he is with the mortar plate.  He is wearing a flight suit in this picture, what the pilots wear.  When off base they have to wear these since their Abu's are flame retardant.  They have been given some Army uniforms to wear as well since they are flame retardant.  In a few weeks he will get more Abu's that are flame retardant so he will come home with three new styles of uniforms!  Crazy huh?!
