My Little Kindergartener...

Last Sunday Peyton was complaining about how bored he was because everyone was sleeping, so I asked him if he wanted me to take some pictures of him, thinking that would stop his complaining, but much to my surprise he said he wanted too. And yes, his clothes look ragged and yes his hair isn't fixed, but I had to take whatever he would give me! He turned out so cute and these pics really express his personality. He is sooo full of spirit and always has something funny to say. He is probably the most dramatic boy I have ever met, but he sure is cute, isn't he?

More soccer pics!

Braden

Peyton played his friends Braden and Tanner this last weekend. It was fun to watch all of them play! Peyton and Braden kept tripping each other going after the ball. Peyton made one goal and did very well!

Church Classes

Brynn's Nursery: Jared, Derek, Mason, Crystal, Cloe, Brynn, Josh, Alexis, Kale, Alex, Alivia, and Jackson. Her teachers are: Sister Edith Osterhout, Sister Lanelle Driesel, Brother Thayne Shaefer, Brother Carson, and Brother Lonnie Osterhout

Peyton's Primary Class: Tanner, Peyton, Megan, Merlin, Trey, Alex, Dustin, Kaylee, and Brayden. His teacher is Sister Chris Hansen

And this is mine and Tyler's primary class: Natalie, Shayla, Nathan, Carl, Rebekah, Jacob, Jesse, Rachael, and Braeden

We have three sets of twins in our classroom, and our Primary Presidency is going to send in a picture in of all of the twins in our classroom and send it to The Friend. Maybe they will do an article or something!

I know, I know what you all are thinking. But I am not crazy for taking my camera to church! I thought it would be neat for the kids to look back on these and see who was in their church classes. Tyler and I have had a challenging year with our class, but it has been worth it (on some days). We enjoy our kids and love being primary teachers!

Block Party!

The buggy ride! It was a full house!

Our driver's, thanks guys!

This last weekend we were able to attend a neighborhood block party! It was so much fun. I have always read about them in the Family Fun magazine and actually wanted to put one on one day. Anyways, the Simpkins did a great job and we got to spend time with our great neighbors! We all brought a Harvest Casserole, and the Simpkins cooked homegrown corn-on-the-cob, made homemade root beer and my personal favorite, MAPLE BARS! Just like the fairs, minus the long line! Needless, to say I gained about 10 pounds that night, but oh, it was worth it! And then to top off the night they took the kids on a horse-drawn buggy ride! The kids had a blast! It was a fun night, except when we had to leave early, because our youngest son was throwing the biggest tantrum I have ever seen him throw! (he was tired).

The Office Marathon!

Little Landie was getting neglected while we were intensely focused on the TV!

So, Jordan and I have been watching The Office, Season 4 at nights. I know some of you are thinking to yourselves how dumb The Office is, and I must admit that I was once one of you. My cousins in Florida were always into the Office, and would tell me how funny it is and stuff; they would even have what they called an Office Party and would watch it together. Anyways, on a plane to Florida they happened to have an episode of the Office and I watched one for kicks, because there was nothing else to do, and I never laughed so hard! So I was hooked. I watched it every night at the McCoy's house during my stay in Florida and tried to catch up on my seasons. So Jordan and I are now watching Season 4. We WILL finish it before he leaves. So Mom, if you are wondering if Jordan is doing anything productive, don't worry he is!

My team

Here are more pics that I just got done editing! (FYI: They are dressed weird because it is homecoming week)

We took these funny pics the other day, when my volleyball team came over for dinner before a game , and I had to post them. They are just a fun group of girls and I have LOVED coaching them. This is my second year being their coach and I have loved every minute of it. My kids just adore them too. And they are awesome at volleyball and such good sports about everything! There, I am done bragging!

Soccer Time!

My handsome soccer player!

I can never do a photo shoot without Brynn being a part of it!

Don't you just love Jaylee's big yawn?

Mommy and Brynn cheered Peyton on!

Peyton had his first soccer game today. He was really excited and nervous about it. He did really good too. His team only had three kids show up, so they didn't get to have any substitutions or anything. The kids were really tired and were glad to have breaks in between the halfs? ( I don't know what they are called in soccer). Anyways, Peyton did really good, he played the whole time and didn't even act like he was winded. He chased the ball and kicked it and did great! He even made two goals! David Beckham better watch out!
