Dear Blog

Dear Mr. Blog,
(or is is it Mrs., Ms., or Miss?)
I am writing to tell you that quite simply--you are out of the loop. This may not come as a surprise to you, nor may it be of great concern as most of the things that I post are trivial and of no interest to anyone but me.
For instance, it probably isn't very interesting to you to know that Thursday is Jackson's favorite day of the week. Why you ask? It is garbage day........and Jackson loves garbage trucks. So, as you can imagine, Jackson could not be bothered to eat his own birthday cake once he opened this little beauty:
and he has barely let it out of his sight since.
Occasionally I do post something important or of interest. For example, Garrison recently turned 8 years old and will be baptized at the end of this month.
Not to sound cliche or anything.........but where exactly did that time go?
Now, Mr. Blog, if your feelings are hurt I don't blame you. However, if you think YOU have been neglected, than you should REALLY feel bad for Ms. Camera. She has been neglected far worse than you have.
We hardly got any good pictures of Halloween. The kids found all of the Halloween costumes and decided to choose more than one for this year. I never got a picture of Hailey in her Fairy costume, nor Alexia in her soda girl costume. Thank goodness we never got a picture of me in my witch costume. Talk about setting yourself up for snotty comments!
We did get a picture of the 5 kids together, although one witch is trying to escape and the other is not a happy camper as she wasn't feeling well at the time and we didn't know it.
I guess I can't blame her as 2 hours later she had 105 degree fever because Mr. Influenza paid an unexpected (and unwelcome I might add) visit.
At least we got a few good shots:
Apparently Jackson has superhero confusion. He wore Macy's witch hat all night long. Not quite sure why........but hey. Why bother a perfectly happy 3 year old?
In conclusion, I will try to keep you more updated on the goings-on in the Whetten household, although and unfortunately, you will have to continue to suffer through some of the trivial and mundane.
Your friend (are we still friends?),
ME

Hee hee hee! I love all the pics. Jace has that shirt Garrison's wearing! And I can't believe Jamison and Garrison were the same thing for Halloween, lol. Totally rad.

That was a funny post. It is true though. You moms have the most to blog about but not the time.

That is hilarious.
Ok - I love that your son loves garbage trucks. My son has that exact same truck and every Fri morning he runs out of bed in a tizzy when the garbage truck wakes him up screaming for me to open the blinds. He HAS TO WATCH every Fri or HE WILL DIE.
