Pumpkin Adventures!

So we went to another fun pumpkin patch this year. We had a blast!! Here are a bunch of pictures of our fun time!

Bike Rodeo, Ballet, Teeth, Baby Shower, and Projects...

So in Lovell, there was a Bike Rodeo...I know, I never had heard of one before either! It was fun though. They gave the kids all helmets, and did safety inspections, taught them some other safety stuff, and had an obstacle coarse. It was a good time!

MacKelle is in jazz dance classes every Thursday. Here she is at class. She LOVES it (Here is the picture dad, so no need to send me yours Ü )

 Brandi and I threw a baby shower for Bobi last weekend. Unfortunately my pictures from that didn't turn out very good. (Brandi or Bobi, maybe you can email me some if yours turned out.) Here is the "cake I made for it.

 Yesterday I made this bench (it goes around an oval table). We have been using folding metal chairs since we moved because our old table and chairs didn't fit in our new place. I HATE the metal chairs! I loved how this turned out. Mostly because we got to get rid of some of those chairs! YEA!!!

 Oh, and I took my dremel to it to make it look a bit older. I thought it looked better than a regular old 2X12.

 And last but not least, Trace has lost his front teeth. This picture is with just one out, but he lost the other one a few days later (in the middle of sacrament meeting at church he pulled it out!)

What a Kid!

Mason has more personality than we know what to do with sometimes. He is a total boy sometimes (loving to play with balls, wrestle, and run), but he does have MacKelle for a big sister, so he is also into accessorizing.  Here are a few funny pictures of him and his unique style...

 This one is MacKelle's leotard. he has his head through the leg hole and his foot stuck in the sleeve...

 Trace's pants on his head...

 MacKelle's jazz shoes on...

MacKelle's glasses...upside down.

Happy Birthday Justin!

So it was Justin's birthday on Monday. We made him a cake and had presents, you know the birthday stuff. He later watched a football game with his coaching buddies. I got a couple pictures of Justin right before we had cake and ice cream.

Look how eager Trace is!

Victorious!

Here is a picture of the cake, and the other side the kids decorated... They did such a good job and had so much fun!

 

Finally...Soccer!

Trace has been looking forward to soccer since we moved. It was something we didn't have in Mud Lake. The season just wrapped up and I thought I'd post a few pics of our soccer player. He loved it and was sad that it had to end. He did really good and had a lot of fun!

Cowley Corn Cookout

Now for those of you not from Cowley, the Cowley Corn Cookout is a FUN event! There are all kinds of free things for the kids to do (Jumpy toys, slides, water slides, obstacle coarse, free cotton candy (as much as they want), bottled water to drink) and then after they've played all day long there is a wonderful dinner consisting of super yummy pulled pork sandwiches, or bbq beef sandwiches, corn on the cob (of coarse), and tables full of salads and desserts (pot-luck-style).  So the kids just play all day and the adults can hang out and chat. It was great! I didn't get many pictures of Trace because I hardly saw him. He was having a blast hanging out with all his friends...each time I saw him he was with someone new!

This is a picture of MacKelle and I with our friends: Shayla and her beautiful kids (minus 2 of them, who were probably running around like Trace and having a blast)

This is MacKelle's new good friend her name is Rylee. She is a cutie. In fact, she has glasses too, and when they are together (especially if they both have their glasses on) they look quite a bit alike. MacKelle LOVES Rylee. They are in the same grade and will hopefully be friends for a long time!

This is the only picture I got of Trace, he was hard to get to hold still long enough. Here he is with Remmington having a snack break. Remmington is in Trace's grade too.
