Pumpkin Patch

 What better way to start off our Christmas break than by posting Halloween pictures! Maybe I can catch up before the year is out...


We found a new pumpkin patch to try out this year, complete with a corn maze!

 Jack was leading the way.


 Wyatt got to bring home Clifford from kindergarten for the weekend so he came along with us and picked out lots of turns we took in the maze.

 Then it was time to pick out pumpkins.  This is Ethan's choice.

 This is Jack's cool pick.

 And finally Wyatt got one.

 Load 'em up!

 I think I'll pick this little pumpkin...although he doesn't look so little in this picture.

This is probably the best picture I got of all three of them on this outing.


 Jason got his bumpy pumpkin too!

 Then it was time to try and pose for pictures...which is almost impossible.


 Jack got a late birthday present from Grandma ...

 an awesome Tek Dek pack.

 Then Mom got to have her fun ... pumpkin placement.



 And, of course, the boys were in the cul-de-sac working on their skateboarding tricks.


After lots of trying and many failed attempts, Jack FINALLY started to land his ollie's of the ramp!
 
 Happy Halloween from a Minion, a skateboarding cow and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle!

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...

Master Closet Overhaul

 We have this ridiculously large walk-in closet in our master bedroom and over time it has been overtaken with STUFF. So I decided I was tired of looking at the mess and it was time to clean it out and up.  Take a look...  I can't believe it went from this... To this!  I love walking in here now and actually find myself looking for reasons to go into my closet.  Along with just weeding out old clothes and items I no longer wore or needed (you should see the pile of stuff that was donated!) I made some changes to the room too.   One of them was my shoe racks. I've long wanted a tall shoe rack to go alongside the built in shelves but I knew it would never get off my husband's to-do list so I took matters into my own hands!!  It's not exactly what I had envisioned but it works and I'm happy with it. Thanks Target for the shelves.  Over the past few years I have developed a deep love for scarves and now own several....
 We have traveled around the SE for lacrosse tournaments in the past but this year we had the opportunity to travel to Denver, CO for one. I think it was one of my favorite. We tried to make it a family vacation as well, so we traveled in early the day before and spent some time exploring.  We headed down to Rock Park in Castle Rock and did a little hiking.  See that big rock in the background? Yup, the boys climbed all the way to the top. Ethan and I made it to the base of the rock while Jason, Jack and Wyatt climbed up top.  Ethan and I messing around waiting on the other boys.  Photos of the boys up top.  Our first game was an evening game, so we had most of the day to explore and get used to the altitude (which definitely got to the boys once they got on the field). The fun part of having good friends on the same lacrosse team is you get to explore together. We all drove up to Red Rocks to expl...
