This is my dad...

...but deep down, he really looks like this.

No he isn't "It" or the Joker's brother, he is just a silly clown. (Jon couldn't resist the urge to make him over in photoshop.)

Ever since me and my sister and sister in laws started blogging, he decided he wanted to also, and so every month on the 1st of the month, he has been emailing us what he and my mom have been up to. Warning: you have to know my dad's sense of humor to get his jokes. I think they are the most hilarious thing to read.

Have fun reading this months blog by my dad, Richard.

October blog

I’m am glad I take writing classes or I would never get to do the blog. And I are being very happy cause this will soon gets to be the hollow ween day. I wants to be a Little Red Riding Hood so I can scare people. I want to go by the mountain to see the leaves and gather acorns. I like to feed these things to the squirrels then eat the squirrels. They are quite tasty but their tail tickles going down.

We is glad to have our house building done. It looks pretty and people are pouring through the doors and windows to see Jill’s pretty colors. We soon will make the big room more pretty with the Christmas tree and things so the left over termites can enjoy them.

We did this visit to them All Red peoples mountain cabin. We ate some things and looked at a television set. And it looked nice outside the door. We enjoyed the pretty green of pine trees, the yellow of quakie aspirins, the orange of those autumn leaves and the gorgeous reds of box elder bugs.

I has been so much worried bout the economys. I sees my stock in Twinkies has gone way down. So I buys more from Kents and I will store them under my mattress. I just hope those persons at the capitol building will fix the money things and will make the gas for my scooter go down.

I will goes now and put some carmel on the apples then I will pick them from the tree and eat them.

Levi's blessing

This past weekend, my beautiful sister, JaNae, had her baby blessed. His name is Levi and he is just about the cutest thing you'll ever see. He has a chubby little face and a button nose and a little dimple in his chin.

It was fun to see alot of the family and also Justin's family. They are the nicest people and they make really good salads, too! But of course, nothing can top my mom's famous potato salad!

I love this picture of my dad. He is pretty much the life of the party and should never be taken seriously. He is always fun to talk to and can always make you laugh with his corny old jokes. This is Levi. See I am right, he is just about the cutest thing you'll ever see! I love this picture of him because he looks like if he drinks one more ounce of milk, he'll explode! My sister gave birth to him just over a month ago and she already looks amazing. So unfair:)

This is me, my mom, and JaNae. As you can see, my sister and I look nothing alike, but I think she is gorgeous! She has the cutest personality and is always making something good when I come over and visit. My mom is absolutely gorgeous too. She is so easy to talk to and always has good advice, plus did I mention she makes a killer potato salad?! Little Livy is next to us holding Levi. She is the most beautiful red head I have ever seen and has a sassy little personality to go along with it!

Who could forget my Jon? I don't know why he always poses like this.

My Dad is so sweet with my kids. They really love him and love staring at him apparently.

My mom is also so sweet with my kids and when I say sweet, I mean she has had to bribe them with candy and popsicles to come sit on her lap. It was mainly Hunter that needed the bribing, but he really loves Grandma now.

Hunter had such a fun time at the park. He and Mitch hung out most the time sliding down slides and playing in the sand. It was a great place to have the luncheon.

I'm horrible that I just let Jaina drink the water out of this little crack in the cement. I actually hurried and snapped a few pics and then stopped her, but it was pretty funny to watch.

Jaina is super attached to this blanket. My sister in law, Jen gave me all of her girls old clothes and blankets and this was one of them. Jaina can't go to bed without it.
