late October/November 2010

We've been having a fun and busy fall and winter. Basketball is in full swing, which means Josh is gone a lot but life is never boring, thankfully. One fun thing from the last part of October was our church's annual pumpkin carving. This is Bonnie and her friend Brooklynn. These two share a love for princesses and Barbies and LOVE to discuss these things in the middle of church. They are learning self-control together.The kids and I went with Lesley to Arkansas the last weekend in October to go to my cousin's wedding. Dad has the better camera and took most of the pictures, but I did get this one. Unfortunately the kids look not so good in this picture. My dad is a retired Rear Admiral in the U.S. Navy, and the groom is in the military so he asked my dad to wear his uniform. So glad we got this picture. We don't get near enough of all of us.
We trick-or-treated with the cousins! It's so fun having them live here! Our neighborhood is awesome for trick-or-treating and we had a great time. Josh stayed in our driveway handing out candy and, I'm told, threatening to call the coach of some jr. high basketball players who were not even in costume and came looking for candy.
Noelle doing her thing:

Kellen is quite the bookworm. Dinosaur books are his favorites.

My dad and Josh's mom came for the kids' Grandparents' Day at school. There was a good program and we all had a good time.



Granddad fixed pancakes for the girls while I went to sign K up for basketball.
At the last soccer game:
Soccer party!!!
Ready for church. Don't you love the tennis shoes on the wrong feet? Hey, I'm just happy because everyone can put on their own shoes now! (However, she did change shoes before we left.)

Good post, except that one picture of all of us is terrible, except for you and dad. Kellen and Bonnie look comatose and I look like I'm about 20 weeks along.

I can think of more appropriate things to say about them than "comatose," but those aren't nice. I hadn't noticed that your blouse was sticking out, especially since you don't look that way in real life. Sorry.

Y'all make me laugh.
