6Mills!

Anthony had Austin spend the night Friday and they built a fort. (I labeled all the pictures "tent" until Chris said "It's a FORT!") Anthony and Chris expanded on the fort Saturday afternoon.

Trying to get a good picture of me and Baxter after work Saturday, but Baxter wasn't having it for some reason and kept hanging his head down.

Anthony's turtles... big boy and french fry. No idea.

About 6 months ago, Justin (my friend and photographer most nights) and I took a dog while in a terrible part of town. It was pouring down rain, and he had no collar and rusty stitches from being neutered. He was really underfed and I convinced Justin his girlfriend would love him. They went to Orlando for the weekend so we got to watch him! His name is Simon. He's a little chihuahua. Tony loves him. Baxter hates him. Growls everytime Simon gets close to him.

I was sleeping on couch and look where Chris found Simon and his teddybear! Ha!

Weekend

The finished boxes! The blue one is for a boy 5-9 and the green and red one is for a girl 5-9.

Pictures of Anthony playing baseball... For your enjoyment...

This is the picture we're including in our boxes we're sending through Samaritan's Purse for children at Christmas. It's through our church. The boy's are making a box for a boy 10-14, and I'm doing one for a girl 5-9. Anthony hopes the kids write back so he can have a pen pal.

It took FOREVER to take our own picture like this and have everyone looking at the camera. We gave up on Tony.

Boo!

Trick or Treat!

Scary!!

All the neighbors were out and we had a blast!

Anthony has a ton of candy!

Which we've hidden.

Welcome to the World of 5mills!

Greetings from sunny Florida and Happy Halloween!

I've decided to do this blog since we have so much family far away from us. That, and I need something that makes me look busy at work.

We are excited for Halloween tomorrow. I actually get to work a dayshift and be home for trick or treating for the first time in 4 years! Anthony has glow in the dark face paint, fake teeth, a huge sword and all sorts of other boy-like stuff.

Chris and I went to a Halloween Party Friday night. There were about 50 people there, mainly from work. Chris was a bookie and I was Sponge Bath Betty. :)

Chris has the fog machine ready to go on the front porch, and some decorations. We plan to sit on the front porch with Baxter and Tony and give out candy. People from several nearby neighborhoods come to ours, so I'm sure we'll be out of candy in 15 minutes.

Will post pictures soon!
