Pumpkin Patch
















I was able to go with Brynn's class to the Pumpkin patch. She was so excited to go with all of her school friends. I love to see her interact with her friends in school. The pumpkin patch was a lot of fun, with a haunted house, rabbits, goats, a hayride, and a maze. The kids really enjoyed themselves. Landen had a great time too and loved being a part of the "big kids."

Homecoming Parade












Brynn and Peyton both were able to be in the homecoming parade. Peyton's decision was last minute. He wanted to throw candy, so he rode on the Elementary's PTO float. Brynn was able to ride with her dance class on a float and loved it! She "forgot" to throw her candy, so we were left with a lot of candy. They both seemed to enjoy it, even though it was sooo hot!!

Trey's Birthday Party













Since Robbie is down in SLC with Lolly, Holly and I decided to throw Trey a littel b-day party. Robbie always has amazing parties for her kids and we didn't want Trey to feel left out just because his mom wasn't here. After the walk-a-thon we took all the boys to a local park and just had flag football, and a bag full of balls so the kids could play whatever. Football is definately Trey's favorite so they split into teams and played football. I had to quarter-back for one team and Tyler was quarter-back for the other. I bet it was really funny seeing a huge pregnant lady playing football with seven-year olds. The boys loved playing and Trey is an amazing athlete. He is so awesome at football, you can tell that he has played a lot. Holly made a great cake and had balloons and pizza. Trey got a lot of great gifts and he seemed to have had a good birthday. He has a huge grin in all of his pictures, except in the ones he is making silly faces!

Annual Walk-a-thon




















Every year, Peyton's school holds a walk-a-thon fund raiser. The kids get really excited about it, wanting to see how many laps they can run or walk within an hour. This year I helped out at it and was out there all day. Brynn and Landen did great though. It was really hot, so I stayed in the shade and marked off lap cards. Brynn even got her own lap card and walked/ran all day. She went 13 laps so a little over 3 miles. She was having a blast. She keeps asking me when we are going to go to the track again and run. Landen even ran a few laps but wasn't really interested in it. Peyton ran the whole time during his hour. He tried so hard. I didn't get a picture of his lap card, but he ran 15 laps during his time. I took some pictures of Trey and Tyler for Robbie, since she is not here. Trey ran the WHOLE time he was out there. Everyone was getting worried about him, but he kept insisting he was fine and wanted to run. The kids really like it and I hope that they raise a lot of money for the school!
