Halloween and all that crap

Halloween....oh how I dislike Halloween. I think it's by far the dumbest holiday out there. It's even worse than St. Patricks day. I put on my happy face and endured it the best I could though...here's the proof:

So...just a rundown on the last 2 or 3 months!

slack er (n)
1. One who shirks work or responsibility

That is moi. It's not that I was super busy with other stuff and just couldn't fit this in. Oh no, I sometimes get up at 5:30 when Donnie's walking out the door for work and just play on facebook...I just haven't had the desire to blog. But I've got faceboook outta the way and 20 minutes till it's time to get Mar ready for school...so here's a quick version of what's been happening (I know you've all been putting your lives on hold in anticipation for this post)


AUGUST

Marlys started first grade! She loves her teacher and has 3 or 4 kids from last year in her class. She is in the advanced program again, so we are pretty proud of her! She has amazing handwriting and can read better than most people I know! She's just a little smarty pants!





SEPTEMBER

Donnie came home from his deployment! Yay! It was a long 6 months, but we're grateful this deployment was only half as long as the last one! We missed him and it's so good to have an adult (sometimes) around.




OCTOBER
Donnie got orders! Yes....the Hurd's are preparing for yet ANOTHER military move. This time we don't know exactly where we are going...yet. He's been selected as a recruiter. He goes to recruiting school in February and starts his actual job bringing people in the the good ol' Army in May. We do know, however, that we will be moving to the state of TENNESSEE! They will give us an exact location sometime after he gets to school.

ALSO...my mom and dad and sister Tracy came for a quick visit! We had SO much fun in a very SHORT amount of time! We went to Heritage Days in Rogersville, TN...that took up most of our visit. We had a ton of good food and looked at some really neat stuff.


She really loves polish dogs :)

Can't go to a festival and not get a funnel cake!

She got right in to the spirit of things

The girls fishing...and yes, those are my  parents in the back buying roasted peanuts and pork rinds..ewwww

He's just so incredibly hot

My big sister Tracy...she's the vacation queen!

Happy Birthday Marlys Ilene!

Today is Mar's 6th birthday! She's most definitely the smartest and prettiest 6 year old I know! We love you Mar!

ATTENTION

I have a lot of updating to do...but not right now. Right now I'm eating macaroni and cheese. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

This made me cry like a baby!

I really have nothing to say....

But I need to do a new post...so here goes a bunch of nothing!
We are finally less than a month away from Donnie coming home :) We are all super excited. We've been in this house for a year now, and Donnie's only lived in it for 4 months! I guess that's why it almost seems normal for him to not be here. It will sure be nice to have him back where he belongs though!
School starts the 25th and we are ready! Mar has a bunch of cute new school clothes and hair accessories just waiting to make their debut. She's a teenager when it comes to fashion!Ry has been stuck on the same strawberry shortcake song for about 3 weeks. She sings it constantly, and if you call our house, I'm sure she'll sing it to you, too. She sings it to everyone, even the Schwans man got a dose of it.We got new carpet in the bedrooms! I guess that's big news. All the bedroom carpet was the original carpet that came with the house....14 years ago! That's so gross and if you haven't come to visit, I understand why now....but it's been updated so pack your bags.
Lola went to the vet Wednesday and she weighs a whopping 28 pounds. Only 2 more pounds and she'll be as big as Ry....but Lola's only 5 months old! She's gonna be a big girl.
