Friday, October 22, 2010. Gourmet "Ghouls" Halloween Party. This month was a potluck. Thank you to Megan for having this at your home. Your house is so beautiful and incredible, even without furniture. There were prizes given for the 3 best costumes, so everybody dressed their best. We had a great night the party almost lasted until midnight. With these girls you can talk and laugh all night long. We missed you Melissa and Joni. Posted by The Arbuckle's. Sunday, October 3, 2010.

Tuesday, March 29, 2011. We created this lounge area where we could eat our appetizers and mingle with each other. The only decorations in the lounge area were the 3 little vases with daisy's. Some of the fresh flowers we used were daffodils, succulents, and daisies. Flowers were potted in tin pots and spray painted with chalkboard paint.

Brandt, Lindsey & Avery Esplin: December 2008
http://brandtandlindsey.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 16, 2008. We took Avery to see Santa last weekend. She spent a lot of time just looking at him. She wasn't scared but couldn't figure him out. I think it is the beard. Unfortunately we don't have a picture to post because they are not digital. We do have a few of us waiting in line waiting to see him! I think Avery looks so cute in this one. She makes the funniest faces. Monday, December 1, 2008. We had our family pictures taken last week and thanks to Kristen they look great!

Brandt, Lindsey & Avery Esplin: May 2009
http://brandtandlindsey.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. We have tried to stick to a night-time routine with Avery, and this may be proof that it is working. It's so amazing how fast children can learn. Wednesday, May 27, 2009. We finally turned our guest bedroom into a playroom. I was getting sick of having toys all over the family room. I saw a toy shelf in Pottery Barn Kids that I really wanted but of course we could not afford it so, Brandt built it for me. It was a bit more complicated than expected but it turned out great.
