Painting---uh, what are we painting again?

Jimmy brings a kicking and swinging Joey into the kitchen and says ,
"Hey we aren't done painting!"
Emilie, (yes, Emilie) , says "Oh, you are right." Meanwhile Katina comes in with her camera, dragging a very unwilling Tony. (hmmm. imagine that!)Emilie gets right in there and does a fine job of painting ---Joey's face! The masterpiece. Way to go Em!
Now it's Tony's turn.
He takes a little convincing.
But, walla! Another masterpiece. Now Trinity is in on the fun too.
We have found another victim. Billy!
He struggles too. What is wrong with these boys anyway?
But Emilie succeeds once again,
with yet another beautiful face.
Trinity's turn! Oh no!, she screams and starts to run.
Run, Trinity, run!

She got caught too.
Wiggling and giggling.
Beautiful! That Emilie sure does good work doesn't she?
Bobby's turn!
He is just as wiggly and giggly as Trin was.
Unfortunately, he got away without an "after" shot.
A.J. and Kole have been watching from afar all this time, (the Living Room), and laughing and thinking this was all great fun. Then when Jimmy turned to seek out new faces, they realized it was their turn, so they took off down the street and around the corner.
They did not escape.
A.J. is first it looks like.
But Kole is not far behind.
Ha,ha! Got you!
Amazing work.

Because Kole was so resistant, he got it on his tummy too! That will teach you to run away!
What a gorgeous face!
Once we finished with all the kids, (Cloe was sleeping---shucks!). We began looking for other victims... Grandpa was on the phone. The boys appealed to Grandma, who appealed to Jimmy. Jimmy was reluctant saying that he knew what we were up too. Once we got dad, then we would get him. We assured him that would not be the case as most of the paint had been thrown away. We just saved a little for dad. He did not quite believe us, but decided to help out anyway.
Dad is like oh you think you are going to get me huh? Well, here is the result!We got him! While he was getting his glasses back on, we got rid of the rest of the paint so HE couldn't retaliate! (We are not complete dummies!)

What great sports everyone was!

SpANkiNG MaCHinE TiME KoLe!

Lining up and getiing ready for the "spanking machine"!Stand with your legs way far out so Kole can get through fast.Bethani gets the first whack!
Umph! Thar's not what is suppossed to happen!
They are giggling so hard they can't get up!
That's better!
Emilie and Bobby have the right idea.
Bethani's turn again.That worked even better!Where did Jimmy and Sean go?
Wait for it....
Aha! Jimmy and Sean were waiting just around the corner for Kole and when he thought he was finished and stood up, they got him with cups of water! It was so funny! Kole was very nice though and shared with everyone by walking down the line and giving everyone a nice wet hug! Even Grandma got one and all she was doing was taking pictures!

What is this all about?



Who knows what they are "fighting" about now?

"Ya dead man?"

Jimmy is getting a kick out of this!

Oh, oh. Grandpa's in on it now too.

Who won?

(Notice Jimmy just standing there back by the van... and HE probably started it!)

Halloween!

Bethani's Blessing dress

What a little sweetheart.
A monkey too!
So precious!
Isn't she cute?
The old-fashioned look.
Now there's a smile!
What a happy girl.
She kept kicking her feet up, so mommy was trying to keep her dress down.
Laughing?
What a doll.
