Flintstones...Meet The (Burkett) Flinstones......

Hope everyone is having a FABULOUS weekend! I know we have had tons of fun--and without eating much candy if you can believe that! (2 pieces per kid for the weekend....)

Thursday night Brian and I attended the March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction for our area. It was a deliciously wonderful event:) So many wonderful people and so much good food and all for a great cause. I was a little nervous because I was asked to say a few word. If you know me, you KNOW I am NOT a public speaker. I hate it! BUT since I've been chosen as a finalist in the March of Dimes Mom of the Year Awards, I thought it was the least I could do to help them out. It was a nice night out with my hubby! Thanks mom, dad and Sarah for hanging out with the kiddos!

Friday night our church had a big even called Autumn Fest. This was the 1st time we've ever taken the kids (the last 2 yrs we've been on RSV lock down). Unfortunately it was POURING rain ALL day, so most of the activities were moved indoors. That makes for a VERY crowded place. I think it was overwhelming to the kids at first....so many people, weird costumes, loud music. But they ended up having a great time and looked SUPER cute while doing it!
Here are a few pictures from that night.

...From the town of Bed Rock....

Ben aka Fred Flintstone (He was lovin' the "tri-gang-gals" on his outfit.)

Allie aka Wilma Flintstone

Baron aka Barney Rubble (he was so excited about the X on his shirt! haha)

Anna aka Betty Rubble

Watching a little pre-party cartoons.

Daddy and Benny.

I REALLY can't believe Ben wasn't freaked out by a mascots from one of the universities in town! He loved the BIRD BIRD BIRD!!!!

This is as good as it gets when it comes to a group shot. No one wanted to stop and stand for a picture.

Aunt Sarah (the original Pnut) and Allie (my Peanut!)

Checking out the "petting zoo".

Mommy and Anna taking a break outside. She was easily scared.
And yes I made my shirt---it says "Yes, our hands are full!" I think it helped keep that comment from being repeated over and over that night! hahah!

Precious children of my dear friend Melanie.

Anna and Sarah.

I think the balloon animals stole the show. They were in love with them. "We don't need no stinkin' candy......we've got BALLOONS":)

Baron giving daddy a headbutt. Daddy and the kids love giving each other headbutts. It's so cute!

I think I caught Bear and Papaw off guard:)

Mimi and Allieboo.

Grub time. Snacking on some yummy grilled hot dogs.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures! There are more posts to come this week. We have started moving the kids into different rooms--i.e. Boys Room and Girls Room. Meaning Brian and I get our master bedroom back. (YAY!) It's SOOOOO bittersweet.
I finished the boys room this week and we moved them in yesterday. The girls are sad without the boys but I keep telling them they are getting a new room too.....that will be PINK! I'm hoping they will give me enough nap time this week to get their room painted.
I will post pictures once it's all done. :) By then I think I'll need a vacation!

Have a great week!

One of our last nights together in the same bedroom! *tear*
