I guess we have really been running Kela into the ground. We have found her randomly crashed out around the house. She has been so TIRED!!! Poor thing!

Kela's Special Olympics
Kela is sporting her newly made scarf and beanie...compliments of Noah. (Well, Noah made the beanie and I made the scarf--Noah actually made the beanie for himself, but Kela decided that it belonged to her, so now Noah is making him a different one. Haha! Girls rule!) 
Kela absolutely loves her new Fall Fashion! She even wants to wear her accessories to bed. I've had to sneak them away from her just so I can wash them. What a silly little girl!
4 November 2011
Kela's school signed her up for Special Olympics and Gabriel volunteered to help with the events. I was sad that I couldn't attent, seeing as how I have mandatory school! Ugh! 
However, Dad was able to get off of work and cheer his little girl on! Both of them gave Kela some love before leaving the house.
Oh, this is Kela's walker that she uses at school. Gabriel says that she is so fast in the halls with it. It makes her fearless and she just runs all over the place. LOL!
What a good brother! Gabriel loves helping his little sister and is constantly supporting her! He makes me very proud!
Here's Kela representing her school, Shadow Ridge High School--the Mustangs!
Hahaha...look how little she is!
I'm guessing they're learning what they're supposed to do. ????
Kela is pumping up the crowd!!!
Dad said she laughed the whole time!
And, he said he has never seen her run as fast as she did either! :)
Kela getting her high fives!
Don't forget Dad!!!
It looks like Kela is dragging her helper. hahaha!!!!
Go, girl, go!!! Apparently, she loves soccer!
In the meantime...
Gabriel was one of the coaches for his school and the other kids who were actually able to play the game of soccer. He pumped them up and ran beside the kids, telling them what to do.
Notice the disappointment in Gabriel (#25) after his special needs boy missed the goal! Hahaha!
He was very proud of his team. :)
He's congratulating them.
His team ended up winning, so it was all good.
Kela had an awesome time! WooHoo Speacial Olympics!!!!

AFOTEC Pumpkin Contest
28 October 2011
So my hubby had a work picnic at the park and had his whole family join him. They had a pumpkin carving contest and I tried to talk my boys into carving something, but noone wanted to participate. Well, they all went off to play basketball instead and left me with a whole bunch of people I didn't know. Really? Thanks! After about 20 minutes of boredom, I decided to go ahead and carve something. As I was in the middle of my project, they returned to give me some input. Frankie helped me get the eyes symmetrical and Michelle suggested how to do the mouth.
With our group effort, we won the grand prize!!!! (Yes, it really was the best. Pretty cool for not having carved a pumpkin in probably 10 years.) Yay! $30 worth of I-Tune downloads and lots of other goodies. (I gave the music to Frankie.)
Then Noah ended up winning the prize against the kid's painting contest. He got $15 in I-Tune downloads, plus tons of goodies!

Then my hubby got them to give him all of the leftover pumpkins so the boys can blow them up with the guns later. I would say we really racked up! :) Thanks Uncle Sam. That's the American tax dollar going to work for its troops. Hahaha!

X-Men is my favorite scie-fi series. I just absolutely love all of the movies! I can't wait until the next one comes out. They are soooo good!!!
My sister told me that she was dressing her family in X-Men costumes and, of course, I thought it was a fabulous idea so copied her! Thanks Mary! I had to choose characters that I thought we kind of favored and could pull off. Therefore, we ended up as Colossus (Gabriel), Juggernaut (Dad), Rogue (Kela), Storm (Me), Wolverine (Brandon), and Archangel (Noah). I wanted Frankie to be Cyclops, but unfortunately he couldn't make it.
I literally had 30 minutes to get everyone ready--because my hubby decided to take the family to shoot guns (since Michelle had never went), and didn't get back in time. Meanwhile, I was cooking soup for the party and was stressing about how we could pull off my plans with none of my family around! Thankfully, we frantically did it. It was a miracle!
Hahaha...don't you love photoshop??? The fact that my baby LOVES Hale Berry made the decision to be her easy. ;)
I thought Kela turned out so cute as Rogue! Actually, she didn't wear her gloves to the party. I didn't realize she had taken them off, so she didn't have them there. (I had to photoshop them into our group pic)...Crazy little girl!
It's worth noting that a lot of these photos had to have some Photoshop work done to them. Hahaha. Gabriel decided to paint his body first....THEN put his shirt on. As you can imagine, he got some silver streaks on his clothes. :( It wasn't too, too bad, but I doctored up this pic nonetheless.
Gabriel has been working out a lot and is growing so much! He's 5'9" and weighs over 150 pounds. It's hard to believe he's only a Sophomore and is bigger than his older brothers. (Can't beat 'em, but bigger.)
He was funny when we were picking out characters, because originally I wanted him to be Cyclops, but he refused because he said he died by the hands of a girl and wouldn't be him. Hahaha! Therefore, he settled on Colossus. Great choice! I think he turned out great!
I didn't have time to fix Brandon's hair, since we were so rushed. I was so mad at him, because his hair was the perfect length to be Wolverine, but then he cut it a week before! Urghh! He had all kind of facial hair too! Anyway, Frankie was over at the house and helped fix Brandon's claws in time for us to leave. We did forget his dogtags, though. Really? I guess that's not surprising.
Okay. Here is my Juggernaut. Seriously, this was the biggest stress of the season and night. I bought my hubby stuff to be Beast--really, he would have been perfect! However, he didn't like the idea of wearing paint, a wig, and a suit. We had quite the conflict over it! I finally conceded and allowed him to be Juggernaut instead. Of course, I didn't have stuff for a Juggernaut costume, so he's a little ghetto. ;)~ Still my baby and love him...no matter what.
Brandon ended up changing during the middle of the activity. He couldn't eat with his claws on and wanted to take them off. Whalah! I guess he wasn't Wolverine. He must have really been Mystique!!! Look at that transformation...he took over Where's Waldo! These unsuspecting people better watch out. Mystique is deadly!!! 
The two evil ones giving out candy (Mystique and Juggernaut). Watch out! That candy may not be safe!!!
Kela with Rhylea. Please don't touch her skin, though. She can suck the life out of you. ;)
Yes, that it real. And, yes, he is touching it!
Kela went to touch it too! Quickly. But touched it nonetheless. Then she said, "candy!"

Dad's Lemon Diet
October 2011
Soooo...Dad wanted to lose some inches off of his belly and shed some pounds. Therefore, he decided to do a colon cleanse diet to rid himself of toxins and built up waste, and hopefully feel a little better in the process. He opted to do this diet for a week:
It consisted with starting and finishing with a Sea Salt drink (gives a burst of motion to the system because the body rejects it), then drinking a lemon juice concoction about 6-12 times a day (which cleanses the intestinal lining), and drinking a laxative tea each morning and night (to help push everything through). It was a difficult seven days, but my hubby was happy to shed over 20 pounds of waste (and three inches off his belly)!!! Now he's trying to eat healthier and do cardio/weight exercises to maintain and continue his goals. I'm so proud of him for trying to be healthy. I know it's very hard!!! I don't know how he did it.
