Clayton on his 8th Birthday!




Me as Ugly Betty. Pretty Ugly Ya Think???

Saturday was a busy day around the Lippy house. First off Dad comes home today!!! We made him his favorite carameled apples, we then cleaned and cleaned, did some wash and then the unthinkable I raked and mowed the lawn, keep in mind that it's Nov. 1.

Clayton wanted to play basketball but we got back too late to sign him up. We got a call that a team was short a player so he was able to play. We wanting him to do his best, but were a little nervous, no practice with his team so no practice at all. Keeping in mind last year he played on the 2nd grade team as a 1st grader, he made 1 basket all season. This year he is playing with 2nd graders as a 2nd grader and made 3 baskets, it was so much fun to watch. He was very active back and forth, quick on the rebounds and very aggressive. I couldn't of been more proud of him. Great Job!!

The boys and I picked up dad and they all fell asleep almost before I hit the freeway. Aaron was like a kid in a candy store told not to touch anything. So excited and happy to be home, but with his 3 little best friends asleep, it took the wind out of his sail. We made it to the off ramp for the freeway that's when Cody then Casen and then Clayton finally decided to wake up. Needless to say it was a late night.

It is so nice to have dad home we have sure missed him.

Halloween 2008

Wow, what a day! We started off destroying the house trying to get ready for school and Halloween. Clayton was a just cute, a strange little man. Cody was a ninja (the Silent Ninja) to him that meant quick and quiet. If you want peace in your home don't let your little ones be a ninja, it's all out the window your just encouraging a fight. Casen was a monkey he loved every minute of it. Oh to be young, to know that your so cute and irresistible.
We went to a ward family and had dinner and activities, then trick or treated our little circle. Clayton kept saying "I love our neighborhood" and "We live in the best neighborhood". We only went down one side of our circle maybe 6 or 8 houses, and there bags were full. Which makes it great for me. YAAAH were done!
We ventured off to a Halloween Barn Party!! It was a BLAST!! The kids loved it. That's were I had a little scare, not just from the mirror(I was Ugly Betty or Holly) but I walked off to visit with some members and left the boys playing games with g-ma. She got caught up in what Clayton and Cody were doing and Casen walked off. I came back and mom says "don't you have Casen with you??" "NO" He had wondered off trying to find me. He was found and said "I can't find my mom" Who is you mom??" "Momma Holly" he says. Well no one knew momma Holly especially as Ugly Betty. After this scare we were all reunited and had some more fun then called it a night. Home and in bed by 9:30 -2 who fell asleep on the way home.
For the most part we had a great Halloween! We hope you did as well!!
Now off to Thanksgiving!!
