A Spooky Little Treat

 We had such a fun Hallowwen...these treat bags were just itching to get used!
 The boys started the festivities off by opening their Halloween cards from Nana and Granddad.
 Jack, always the helper, was giving Wyatt a hand.



 Thanks Nana and Granddad!
 My cute little penguin doesn't understand how to pose for a photo yet.  I kept trying to get him to stand still so I could take a picture but he just kept walking towards me.


 I was hoping the Jack wasn't too scary of a zombie to scare his little Ewok of a brother.
 Look at those little faces!
 We started the evening off, as we always do, at Publix for some trick-or-treating.
 The boys always enjoy it and we've been doing it since we moved into this house.
 They go around the store to different games and play for candy.
 This year we were joined by our friends Myleigh and Melania.
 Then it was back home for dinner and then a trip around the neighborhood.

 The little ones only went around the cul-de-sac and then stayed home with Daddy to give out candy.  Ethan recognized Miss Betsy's house, as he walked right in as soon as she opened the door to pass out the candy.  He was ready to stay the evening with them - he must have been looking for Kortney!
 Jack reminded me of when I was little after Halloween - organizing his candy into piles.


 Then counting how many of each he had.
 Nerds was the winner.
What a great Halloween we had!

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back.
