Happy Halloween


Hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!! Nate had his defensive driving today and I went to a family pig pick-in. It was a good time but its been raining all day. And yes I made the carmel apples...Yummy.


If anyone has seen this escape please call the Helms Prison....


Amber went to a costume party last night and Nate dressed her up! Watch out Dallas Cowboys here she comes.....
Charlie Brown and The Great Pumpkin

Lexie...what can I say she likes to carry these around the house in her mouth.

Vador is thinking why do I always have to pose for pictures mom??


On a more serious note please pray for my grandmother, she had a stroke on Thursday and is in the hospital. She has a long road of recovery ahead. Thanks!

Play Ball

I have to start by saying, I miss my friends at 180 Medical. But God has blessed me with an amazing job here in NC! I started on Monday and last Friday they had a Sample sale, which is when all employees get to go buy the clothes that have been floating around for model for $2.00 each. And yes there is TONS of clothes. Even though I hadnt started yet, I was able to get in and enjoy this exciting event. They have 4 a year and there will be another one before Christmas. Yay!! Then today we had a company softball event for United Way, everyone got to walk down to the Grasshoppers Stadium, http://www.gsohoppers.com/park/, have lunch and stay out of work for 2 hours. Well I know your all jealous but let me remind you today in NC it was 45 degrees and raining....so not the best day............ but alot of fun!
