Just a little of what Jax has been up to lately….

Watching the first snow, he sat here for 15 minutes!

Building a fort.

Ummm, I guess it is nap time :)

Doing some work on his tool bench, guess he needed a little step up!

Yay, Buzz :)

My walking buddy.

I sure have fun with this little boy!

A very Happy Halloween

Pumpkin carving, always a family favorite.

Reaching inside the pumpkin for Sidney, not so much!

Rylee's spooky pumpkin

Woody!

Sidney did her pumpkin all by herself this year.

Porter's mummy.

This year Sidney and Rylee wanted to be black cats and Porter, Jax, Kaden, and Gavin were skeletons.

Baby Gavin is a little covered up by Rylee's cat ear!

I love this picture!  Jaxon was done taking pictures and wanted nothing more to do with it.

The little boys helped hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters, so everyone got two candies!

My Dad took it up a notch this year with decorations.

He had a special place in the garage with a video projector…..

The spooky images on the garage wall.  When you were in the garage and positioned just right my Dad would push the button and the pictures would turn into zombies and jump out at you.

It was intense!

A picture of the three little skeletons.

Happy Halloween from our goblins to yours!

GOAL!!!

Rylee has been a very focused little soccer player lately and we have had to pay up on our "doughnut for a goal" incentive!

Great job Rylee!

And her cheering fans get a doughnut too!

Seriously!  I could eat him ;)

Here's to more goals and doughnuts.

The CiRcUs!

We went to the Circus with my family to celebrate Sidney and Rachel's birthdays.

Jax was mesmerized! 

It was a great show and a fun night!

Sidney's 10th Birthday!

Whoa!  How is my little girl 10 years old!?!

This is a big one.

She is so excited to be double digits!

Birthday morning pancakes and flowers from Dad.

Birthday cake.

Some of her biggest fans!

I had to get a picture of Sidney's wristband that she STILL has on from Mexico.  She said she wants to remember everything about our trip and she just can't take it off yet :)  She is SO my daughter.

The big 10!  Both hands!

Sidney had a cake decorating party with her friends.  She was very nice and invited Rylee to decorate a cake too.  I think everyone had a good time :)

I love all of these girls.  They are so good to each other.

Sidney loves her friends, her brothers and sister, swimming, gymnastics, soccer, school, organizing (I told you she is my daughter!), dancing, singing, reading, and writing.  She is a healthy eater and is very responsible.

Happy Birthday Sidney!  We love you so much and we are so proud of you.

Rylee's soccer team

I am loving hanging out at Rylee's soccer practice today!

It is a beautiful afternoon with a bunch of cute girls stretching and running.

I love her team and the awesome Dads that coach it, including Allen :)

Sidney, "hanging" around with me!

Cute Jax.

Go Rylee!

Go Hot Shots!

Braces off!

Sidney got her braces off today!  Well, phase one at least :)

She was a very good patient and did everything that they asked her to do.

She was SO excited to get them on, but she was still excited to get them off and get her retainer.

Beautiful smile, beautiful girl.

Good job Sidney!
