Pumpkin Carving Fun!

Don't we all luv carving pumpkins? Well, I used to before I was responsible for cleaning up the mess! Those stringy pumpkin guts and seeds end up in places you'd never imagine. Oh, but how much fun and excitement for the kiddos (and David)! We had a good time, especially cracking up at Sophie. She had her first ever encounter with mushy gushy pumpkin guts. She played with them, tasted them, and threw them everywhere. It was a hoot watching her! The boys also enjoyed gutting them. They were making gross comments all night about the guts and what they felt like and smelled like. It was a blast! They are so excited for it to get dark so we can light them up for the world to see. I hope you all have as much fun carving yours as we did ours.

This is Funny!

My friend Melissa introduced me to this commercial. I had never seen it before now. I could seriously sit and watch this all day laughing my head off! I luv it!

Tu Tu's, Tu Tu's, and more Tu Tu's

It started out by just making a Tu Tu for Britty to take Sophie's pictures in. But 942 yards of tulle later, we have Tu Tu's coming out the WaZOo! I just couldn't stop and they are becoming quite the hit. I'm still working on the web page to display all the many shapes, sizes, and colors, but i'll let you all know when it's up. It has been so fun, yet crazy at the same time. Check out these pictures! Not only is Sophie the cutest thing ever, but Britty does such an amazing job with the photography.

Long Time, No Post!

Holy Cow, time flies by so quickly these days. I knew I had blown my weekly post but I hadn't relized it had been over a month. Sorry guys! So here's an update. Sophie and I just got over the stomach yuckies and hopefully nobody else will have to encounter them. Dan, Jackson, and Max all had it the week before, so I think it's had it's fun with the Griffiths Clan. David went right over to GoodEarth the morning after we got sick and stocked up on all kinds of potions. Poor Sophie smelled like a Pizzaria with all the garlic we rubbed on the bottom of her tiny feet. We couldn't help but laugh about it. It's amazing how you can rub that stuff on and within minutes you can taste it in your mouth. WoW! Glad we're done with that. Other than that, we're all still going about our daily routines. The boys are enjoying school, still, and David is working harder than ever. Lots of good things are happening with the business. Cody is doing amazing as always! He just got made Senior Companion. We were so thrilled when we got the letter. How blessed we are to have such an amazing missionary in our family. He is such a great example to all of us, especially the kiddos. We're very anxious for Halloween to get here. Well, i'm anxious to get it over with, but the kids are so excited to get all dressed up. The boys were invited to a Halloween party this past weekend and since we've been moving in slow motion lately, we still hadn't gotten them costumes yet. David dug out the football stuff for Bridger and poor Bailey was convinced to be a "Girl", yes, that's right, I dressed my son up in my clothes and he was a "Girl". It was hilarious. He didn't even have to wear a wig. His full head of hair was easy to work with. Sophie is going to be a Witch for Halloween. She is so cute. I can't wait for you all to see! Well, i'm going to sign out for now, but I promise i'll do better about posting. Luv you all!
