It's my birthday!!

Jarod as a Bloody Scream.
Jordan as a color changing skeleton. I wish my camera would have been able to pick up the color changing. It was neat! He basically wore a mask and went with the younger two. Every-so-often he went to a door too though. It was interesting to watch him decide if he is too old or still young enough for Trick-r-Treating.
This was the neatest house to find. The guy had built a roman looking pyramid, and he was dressed as the lion king. I still wonder what he is doing with the area for the next 11 months of the year. LOL REALLY neat though!!
Miss THANG, as a flower fairy. Can't beat $1 for a costume (the wings were from dollar tree!)
These were in a gift from my SIL. She always knows what to get me for my birthday. :)
Yep... I am 34 today. Another year of life under my belt. Twenty-nine was a hard age for me. Since then, birthdays have been thought of as more celebration. I don't have huge parties, big events, etc. I go to my parents for cake, ice cream, and time with family. Mostly though, I find time to reflect on myself. To think about the changes over the last year. This year...
* I went to work full-time.
* My job became a joy again. I actually enjoy going to work.
* I made it through another year of motherhood, feeling like I am succeeding more than failing most days.
* We bought our camping trailer.
* We actually went camping in it too!! (several times)
* We decided to stay in Oregon and not move cross-country.
* I grew a garden that produced this year.
* I am learning to grow my friendships again (I was really bad about this).
* My husband and I are getting along again, feeling a little less like an uphill climb... and in a down-hill fun time. (meaning marriage is FULL of up and down hills)

Well... that's about it. I am spending the next few hours googling online... I am in a scrapbooking mood again and need to find ideas. :)
Oh... anyone been to Crater Lake in the fall? Dh had the idea of driving there tomorrow. Humm...
