Happy Birthday Handsome Hubby!

If only we were back in St. Barts for your birthday!

I love you Honey~ R

The last of the "Fabulous 10" left today.....

and we can't help but be a little sad. The puppies have brought us so much joy. It has been so good for the 3L's to help raise these sweet guys. They have learned so much..........to calm a hungry puppy while waiting for its turn to eat (sharing is a good thing), clean up after them (yes, even that. Hey, if we were going to do this as a family we all had to participate!), pray for a good home for them, and to have respect and compassion for God's animals. The list could go on.

It is hard to believe that the day is here that the last little pup went home. This is the note I found on Luke's door this morning. It says" Lost Dog, her name is dot if you find her call ****"

Now that broke my heart! This was his favorite puppy. The good news is we have been so blessed with wonderful homes for these guys that all of them are keeping in touch with the 3L's! We have already received some wonderful pictures of them and their new homes.

This is Lola's last cuddle with one of her babies.

So sweet.

Thank you Lord for a wonderful experience for our family!

Annual Hoodie Halloween 2009

We had our Halloween party at one of our dear Hoodies house.

(what is a Hoodie? For those who don't know it is a best friend who lives in your neighborhood)

We have been doing this for 5 years now and every year we wonder how can we top the last cause it is soooo much fun!

This year's theme was come dressed as your favorite Saturday Night Live character or someone who performed on the show. There were almost too many funny characters to pick from.

BUT, Casey and I found ours...........

Live from Hewitt Texas............. It's Saturday NIGHT LIVE .........................

Casey was Mike Meyers dressed up as Deiter from the Sprockets episode

He even had the Sprockets dance down

Can you guess who I am?

You got it....Amy Winehouse

That wig was heavy!

Do I look like her?

It was such a FUN night!

We had Brad and Angelina, Lady GaGa, Church Lady, Mary Katherine Gallagher (2), James Brown, and a surgeon.

Trick or Treat with the 3L's

2009 Halloween was a hit at the Reed house!

We had some special guest that evening. Miss America 2009 trick or treating with us, then Landry Balboa made his way around the hood with his boxing moves, and then none other than THE GREAT PUMPKIN from Charlie Brown showed up. What a night! Miss America 2009

3L's ready for some candy

The 3L's couldn't wait to catch up with their neighborhood friends to trick or treat with them.

Lauren, Abby, Jillian, and Dylan

Little Hoodie gang!

I couldn't help but tear up as I curled her hair and help her put on makeup that night. That day is around the corner when she will be wanting to do this everyday.

(slow down baby girl...this mama is going to miss her little girl)

Look at how tall she is?
