Well, it's not HOT in my neck of the woods in temperature (not today anyway) but it's sure been a HOT minute since I last posted. For that I am so sorry but it seems my life has been consumed with doctor appointments, tests, and MORE tests, biopsies, surgery and so much more. One day at a time sweet Jesus is all that any of us can ask for. Wanted to pop in on this beautiful Sunday afternoon to share a little about what I've been up too. Marty and I enjoyed a weekend at the beach before I had breast cancer surgery and took advantage of the time I had in between so many doctor appointments and testing. It was sure a good little getaway. We celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary in September. WOW! Just babies! LOL! We were high school sweethearts. Started dating at age 16. Married at age 18 and started a family at age 20. We celebrated Marty's birthday in October. He says that he's feeling his age these days. LOL! He still works 4 days a week and has a long commu...
Each year our family has the Conner Fall party in which we have so much fun. Food, sweets, games, prizes and lots of laughing fill this family event. Needless to say memories are made.
This year me and my daughters dressed like Superheros. I don't know who was more shocked at my auburn wig...my man or my grandkids!
One of my grandgirls told me the wig made me look younger....I MIGHT BE WEARING IT MORE OFTEN!
My grandbabies sure had fun as always.
GAME TIME....
Needless to say the kiddos lined right up to throw the ball and knock down the cans. We definitely have some PITCHERS.
And the party would not be complete without tossing the balls into the pumpkins! Especially when they are going to win LIVE GOLDFISH!
Who can have a Fall party without playing "Go Fish"?.
The object of the game was to knock over the bottles without using your hands!
Another little Pitcher up to throw!
Pumpkin carving is always fun.
More game time with the kiddos.
My fatheirnlove thought he would show us how to walk the PLANK!
The Mummy wrap!
This little one could care less about any of it....just let her eat the pumpkin and she was happy.
Proud of their carved pumpkins.
Everyone wanted to know why my man didn't dress up like a Superhero. His answer: I am a SUPERHERO for putting up with 4 women in my life all these years!
We had lots of Superheros this year at our party! Can't wait to see what we come up with next year.
Hot dogs and chili enjoyed by all....
We ended our day with a hay ride and story time. We actually had games that we didn't play because the ADULTS was wore out!!!
Our newest PUMPKIN is on the way so what better pumpkin for my daughter to carve than a baby pumpkin!
And we're having a gender reveal party this Sunday evening to reveal what this sweet little pumpkin will be! (lots of pictures to come I am sure)
I hope that you all have a safe and happy Halloween. Enjoy family and friends...Make some memories and Happy Fall!
Hugs and blessings, Cindy

Oh my, I can't believe how much planning must have gone into this great celebration. The games look like fun and the kids are having a ball. Nice job!

ReplyDeleteConnie Royals
Thanks Connie. I may need to start buying wigs! LOL!
DeleteI felt like I was right there! Your family sure knows how to throw a party and have fun. Our family use to dress in costume when our girls were in college so I know how much fun you guys had. It's great when everybody gets into it like this. I love seeing families laugh together like this! You are ever beautiful, Cindy.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what my girls come up with next year! No telling! Lots of fun though.
DeleteOh what fun Halloween party with your family. I love this and all the wonderful creative ideas for the games. You girls look fantastic as super women. I do love that wig on you. You really can pull off the auburn color girl!! Love seeing your daughter showing the baby pumpkin.
ReplyDeleteWhat could be a better and safe Halloween then this family fun? Thanks for sharing.
Blessings to you and your sweet family. xo
p.s. got a kick out of what your hubby said about being a super hero. too funny!
We sure had lots of fun...but then our bunch doesn't need a reason or a holiday to have a party! LOL! Thanks so much for stopping by.

DeleteWhat a fun fun party! I love your wig too (did my mom inspire you?). :) That photo of you and your girls is awesome. Can't wait for the gender reveal party!
ReplyDeleteLOL Heather! I think I might get myself a few more wigs now.
DeleteOh, what fun!! You look adorable. You are such a fun-loving lady and I know your grand-kids love that! It's just hard to believe that Marti Leigh is far enough along already to know the gender. She's not even showing!!! I'm so excited for you. YES...PLEASE share pics....and you don't have to wait until next Wednesday....do you?!?!? ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb. Maybe I can post sooner next week. It is has been so hard for me to do the extra's lately and blogging being one of them. Yep, she has just a tiny little bump. But I told her not to worry....the baby bulge will be here soon and not the bump! LOL!
DeleteYou look great, Cindy, and your photos are fun and lovely! :)
ReplyDeleteCindy,
ReplyDeleteThis was fun! Oh my dear friend, how I enjoyed this family time, because we both know that keeping our family close to our hearts and to God is the key to a good life.
Your family is gorgeous in every way and girl, you rocked that outfit and wig and I love you as a redhead too!
Another baby on the way, oh joy!!
Looking forward to the good news.
