Ten on Tuesday

1. We went to "Trunk or Treat" at Malakai's school last Friday. We didn't get a parking spot this year because we wanted to check it out first since we are newbies. So we just went for the treats. Thank Goodness!! Basically, you pay for a spot, then you decorate it to try and win the "best spot" contest. There were some really awesome and creative ones. Now we know what we are up against to come home with the prize next year :) The kids had a ball! It proved to us, yet again, how different Malakai and Leila are. When he was that age, he could care less about the candy. Leila, on the other hand, wanted every piece to go in her mouth! Thank goodness for the Halloween Witch! If you didn't already see the explanation on Colleen's blog, we set out the candy on Halloween night and she comes and takes it and leaves a nice little toy for the kiddos. She is a HUGE hit in the Miller House!

2. My dad, Lisa, and Kiera are in Disney World right now. This is her like 8th time there in her short life of 5 years. They invite us every time, and I took Malakai once, but we just haven't been able to work it out. I really wish we were there with them right now :(

3. I went up to KC for the day on Saturday. One of my best girlfriends from High School is getting married, so I went up for her shower! Congratulations Alli! I am so happy for you and you guys seem so happy! It's exactly what you deserve!!


4. We had family pictures on Sunday and they went surprisingly well! I can't wait to see the proofs! Believe it or not, this is the FIRST time we have ever had family pics done. I know! Hard to believe since it seems like the kiddos are getting them done monthly :)


5. I'm VERY excited for Friday Night Lights to start back up tomorrow! Such a great show!!


6. Malakai is doing exceptionally well in school! The work he comes home with is amazing! I love to see him grow with all the tasks that are tackled in pre-school. Writing, Reading, Cutting, Coloring. His teachers are amazing, and I love that she communicates with us daily thru their website and tells us what the did each day. This is great because when I pick him up he tells me he is too tired to talk about his day. When I know exactly what he did, I can prompt him and he gets really excited to fill me in :)

7. I'm asking you to keep your fingers crossed for me, and if you pray, please add me to your prayer list :) I will go in to details further, when I have more information, but I'm hoping to have some positive changes in our life real soon!!

8. Even though I don't love the chilly weather, I do love the trees changing this time of year. It truly is beautiful! I think since we are so used to it, we don't take the time we should to appreciate it. I really noticed when we were having our pictures taken. What a beautiful time of year it is!

9. For the eight years I have been with Josh (excluding my time in AZ) we always go to bed watching the sports center highlights. I can talk sports with the best of them because it is drained into my head, over and over again, every night. I have never seen him this depressed over sports, as he is right now! He has a hatred for all sports right now! The Chiefs are sucking, the Yankees are in the World Series, Mizzou is letting him down, KU is winning. The list goes on and on. I kind of feel bad for the guy. He as resorted to watching other things. He new favorite show....Man Caves on DIY! I find it hilarious that he has found a show on one of my favorite channels :)

10. Wish me luck in darts next week, it's the playoffs :)


XOXO,
