Fall Family Fun

Ahhhh....it is finally that time of year. We have broken out the jeans and fleece jackets and love it! The weather has made all our family fun activities this week even more enjoyable. The week started off with a completely unsuccessful photo shoot with the Trent's. It left Cindy and I wondering what in the &#$* we were thinking wanting to get a good picture of all 6 kids. Never fear....we decided to let the photo place take one more stab at getting a priceless photo. So, we tried one more time on Saturday. This time we had a fabulous photographer and we were able after over an hour of shooting to get ONE good photo! Believe it or not it was the 9 year olds and the 11 year old that were the problem. The rest of the week was pretty calm. The boys had very little homework and I had very little running. I did attempt a MOPS meeting, but Bella did not feel like being there, so we left shortly after arriving. I was really annoyed since it is one thing I really look forward too every other week. Oh well, maybe next time. The "work week" ended on a yummy note with dinner at Texas de' Brazil with the Trents.Yesterday after the successful photo shoot the Trent's and I took the kids to a Halloween Block Party in the Trent's neighborhood. Unfortunately Larry is sick and did not get to attend. Larry’s illness turned out lucky for Zak since he had no desire to go to the “kiddy” party. Zak has officially entered the too cool for school phase....his loss! Anyway, Nik, Bella and I really enjoyed roasting hotdogs, marshmallow, a hayride and the company. We topped the weekend off with a trip to the Priddy Pumpkin Patch. Bella and I really enjoyed it, but the boys were being poops. I got one ok family photo, but the rest of the day was a wash of family fun. I think the boy’s tolerance is about up when it comes to doing the juvenile things with Bella. That wraps up the week for us. We say so long to the Trent's on Wed and have trick or treating on Friday, but that is about it for us this week. We hope this finds you all sipping apple cider around a campfire somewhere out there.

Gotta Go....

I have really enjoyed being on "Babysites", but my year is about up with them. Therefore, I am moving to "blogger". I hope you will all move with me. It is so much fun to keep you all informed of how wonderful my little family is. I am hoping to be cute and crafty with my words here, but only time will tell if that will be the case. Thank you for continuing to keep up with us.

Happy Fall!
