Happy Halloween

from the Holik's!!

Murder Mystery Party

Murder at Annoville Theater. Yes, there was a victim and there was a murderer!!! We had a blast playing this game. All the names are funny if you stop and read them!! It took me a while to get all of them!!

Chad and Julie played Ms. Shugga Ann Flower and Dr. Doctor Dijon the baker and the doctor. They actually ended up being married in the game. Funny. She was the murderer, but I forgot the motive. :)

Amanda played Tele N. Ewe the News reporter. She doesn't do trash magazines either, and wouldn't even report that the Doctor told London she had a pimple in front of everyone!! This was hiliarous and totally off script; I think we have some good actors in our class!!

Brianne played Ms. Rita Bookaday the Librarian. She had a secret crush on the Mayor. She ended up being sisters with London in the game. What a concidence?


Tyler played Mayor Paul A. Tisshon the Policitan


Travis and Kaci played Principal Amethyst and Mr. Alby Stitchin the principal and the tailor. He had a crush on Professor Newton.


I played London Wilton the rich girl. (Like Paris Hilton). I was wanting to build a new hotel; stireed up a lot of anger and hatred among the people. Hence the reason, I was the victim!!

JJ played Chief C.R. Badges and Teri was the Game Coordinator that Night

Mtichel and Lisa played Mr. Sam Chawpalot and Professor Alberta Newton the Butcher and Professor

Robert and Ivy played Mr. William "willy" Lyallot and Miss Kara Tinn the Lawyer and the Hair Stylist

Overall, it was so much fun and I highly recommend it for anyone wanting a good time!!

NOOOOOOO...............

As I sat crying in front of the TV, Abby got voted off Biggest Loser. Really, she gave herself up for her team!!

Her story is so compelling!! She is so strong!!

I can not imagine....I just can't......It's like what she said....you can't imagine it in your worst nightmare!!

But as we saw she is a survivor!! And it looks like she is doing great since she's been home!! Her total weight loss at the ranch was 46 lbs. and she has lost 80lbs so far. So she has nearly matched what she did on the ranch!!

Won't be as much fun to watch it without her, but of course, we are still pulling for Abby in the Finale!! Go Abby!!

MOPS Pumpkin Patch Visit

We went with our MOPS group and visited the Pumpkin Patch this morning. It was pretty chilly in the shade, but we survived!! They even do a story time for the kids; I'll call it a success. Kylee sat in my lap for about 2 minutes!!

As soon as the story finished and we got outside to look at the pumpkins, she saw another little girls with SNACKS, and she followed this poor girl around because she wanted to eat what she had. I even had snacks in the bag, but I wouldn't let her hold the container, so we had a small, itty, bitty, short lived melt down, and then went on our merry way!!

Testing them out! Nope, not that one!!

Found the one she wanted!!

Rearranging the Gords!!

Wiping our face and hands!!

Time for a REAL Update

WARNING: PICTURE OVERLOAD

I thought it was time for a REAL update about what has been going on around here!! We are really busy, and we are really enjoying it!!

- AWANA is going really great!! We have had 3 nights so far: 16 kids, 15 kids, and 12 kids. I feel like that is really good for our church, and it seems that it is running pretty smooth. God is great!!

- Kylee seems to like the table. It is actually moved into our house now; don't know where to put it!! Guess I should had thought about that!!

Kylee got this outfit for her birthday, and then I found these brown boots at Wal-mart the other day!! Who could resist them!!

This picture makes me laugh for some reason.

But look at that LOCK of hair underneath her headband on the right side!!

- Tomorrow my MOPS group is meeting at the Pumpkin Patch, so hopefully I can get some more pictures of Kylee with the pumpkins!! And we are supposed to be there early to get ready for STORY time. I'll let you know how Kylee does with STORY time!! :)

- Saturday is our Sunday School Class, MURDER MYSTERY PARTY!! I am super excited about it; my other half is not so much!! My character is London Wilton, and I have to wear a nice dress!! Pictures are sure to come; and of course I'll let you know who gets murdered!!

- We Christmas Pictures scheduled for next weekend!! Do you know what next weekend is???? Halloween!! What a busy day it will be!!

A Girl's Best Friend?

Jasons' parents had 2 Weimaraner dogs, Doug and Randy. Well, they both got into some poison and Doug died this past Monday some how Randy survived. So by Thursday Jasons' parents were in the car headed to Dallas to get a new Weimaraner Puppy.

Meet Gordy (Uncle Josh named him)

Look at her pulling his skin!! Glad he doesn't mind.

Pops, Kylee, and Gordy

Best Friends?


Saying "HI"

Jason's Project

Jason hasn't been as busy right now in the field, so he has been working for about 2 weeks now on making Kylee a table with 4 chairs. Here is the first chair. And after I left today he finished putting the other 3 together. I did not realize how much work it has been. Alot of cutting, sanding, glueing and nailing. Hopefully tomorrow he can make the table and then we can stain it!!
