girly time

Claire feels it really pays to have older sisters who love to paint your nails and make you girly. Melissa attempted last night to paint Claire's toes. Natalie has done it since Claire was a couple weeks old but this was Melissa's first time. Needless to say the paint got more on her skin than on her toes but it was so funny to watch Claire get pampered. She didn't cry or fuss but she couldn't keep her toes still long enough for Melissa to get paint on them nicely. Good thing she doesn't have any HAIR!

Happy 12th Birthday to my Natalie!

 Today is Natalie's 12 th birthday. She was born in San Ramon California and lived there for 1 year before we moved to Gilbert, AZ. She was a very cute little baby with a big head and a chubby little body. I used to call her "Buddha Baby" She has been such a joy in my life and so great with all her brothers and sisters. She enjoys music, cheer, hair and makeup, anything with "twilight" and wants a "canopy " over her bed so badly, or a cell phone! She is a very caring person and a big people pleaser. I can see her working for Unicef or the Red Cross or something like that when she is grown. Time seems to be going by so fast as she is growing into adulthhood but if I could stop time I wouldn't only because I know she has big dreams and aspirations and I am so excited to see her fulfill them all. Happy Birthday to my sweet Natalie!! We hope your day is perfect. ( I already brought her chocolate dipped strawberries and lunch from the Flame Broiler) I'm curious to see her next request..I think it has to do with coloring her hair. She is having a party at the theater on Sat. where she's going to see Twilight with all her friends.

We've got a new cousin

Early this morning, Brian's sister Carrie and her husband, Mason welcomed their new precious baby girl into the world. She was born at 3:14 am and weighed 7lbs 3 oz. She is so lucky to be a part of such a loving family with 3 older brothers and an older sister that has waited for her to come for a long, long time. We are so thankful to a Heavenly Father that makes little miracles like this possible. Congratulations! Welcome Baby Lundell! (no name yet) Tru, Scout, Reagan, Presley??? 

someBODY's Pregnant!!

And it's not me! I just heard the news today that my sister- n- law Audra is going to have another baby! We are so excited for them and their kids to be welcoming a new boy or girl ( Kaylea's wish) at the end of May. Congratulations to the "other Campbell's"

Halloween

Brian and Zane checking out the loot.

Claire playing with her doll Emily while the kids went out.

Trenton as a scientist..he wouldn't let me do his hair all spiked though or put make up on.

Zane in his penguin costume..his feet were so dirty.

  this was my trunk..like my sign?

We had a busy week and Halloween was a part of it. Our church had it's annual "trunk or treat" this year. I am no longer on the Activities commitee so it was more enjoyable. My chili didn't win...but I don't think anyone organized a contest. I did have an awesome trunk though! I got some of my old clothes and stuffed newspapers in them and I found a pirate head at Michaels for only $5. I even got dry ice for my cauldron but didn't know you were supposed to only put in a little water.. I put in 2 gallons so my foggy cauldron only lasted 2 minutes!!! ha ha next time I'll know better. This Halloween was warmer than most, so the kids had a better time. One neighbor even put on the best haunted house! Melissa had a football game at the NAU dome and they performed Michael Jackson's " Thriller".  After trick or treating I drove there and barely made it in time to see her perform but I did and they even won the game. I let Natalie have a party the next night and she had 10 friends over. I ended up driving them around the neighborhood as they played "spotlight" Thanks Mason and Carrie for teaching them that game..They love it. Well, now that's over, it's on to THANKSGIVING....
