Halloween Carnival

Our middle school's PTO put on a Halloween Carnival for the community. We took the kids and they had fun playing all of the games. Peyton, Brynn, and Tyler went through the spook alley and I think Tyler got more scared than the kids. He said people kept calling his name and jumping out at him. The kids came home with a lot of treats and toys. They all won a soda in the ring toss and ate cotton candy and caramel apples.

Costume Parade

The kids and I loaded up and headed to Peyton's school to watch him in the Costume Parade. I never get good pictures there because the lighting is bad and the kids are walking so fast, it is hard to get a shot. So here are my bad pictures of Peyton walking in the parade :)

Pumpkin Carving 2010

The kids were really anxious to carve their pumpkins this year. They would bug us every night asking us if that night was the night we were going to carve pumpkins. We grew our own in our garden this year, so we didn't get to do the whole pumpkin patch thing. But being eight months pregnant, that wasn't such a bad thing. Tyler is so good with them, and he completely takes over the whole carving process. I just take the pictures :) I think they turned out pretty cute!

Happy Birthday Baby Grant!

Well, baby Grant is not a baby anymore. He is a big one-year-old. We were so excited to go see him and go to his birthday party. He was walking all over the place and just looked so grown up. Savanna made him the cutest monkey cake and had made some suckers for the kids. They had his party at a skating rink and Peyton tried his hand at skating with rollerblades for the first time. He did great!! By the end of the party he was skating on his own and barely falling down. The other kids had fun playing the games that were there and just trying to love on Grant. (He wasn't having it though). I can't believe my little nephew is ONE!

Peyton's 2010 Soccer Team

Peyton's favorite sport right now is soccer. He absolutely loves it! His improvement from last year was unbelievable. It was like a light bulb clicked in his head and he finally understood the game. He had a great coach and really liked his team. He was agressive and made a lot of goals for the season. I really enjoyed watching him this year and I am ready for all the years to come watching and cheering for him when he plays.
