Trick-Or-Treat!








































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































Can't believe it's already that time again...candy, candy, CANDY!!! Love it so, hate it so....But I do love seeing the kiddos in their cute costumes, the trick-or-treating--fun times. This year we did the trunk-or-treat at the church building, then walked our neighborhood with Grammy and Papa following in the car. I have to say, I have never seen treats like in this area--people give out FULL SIZE candy bars, of all kinds---crazy! That really makes it hard to get rid of when I am going through it! I really wanted the kids to be a "theme", since I know I can't do that very much longer, but it seemed like it wasn't going to work until late in the game it all came together when Callie decided to be an Indian and Jack a cowboy. So, when I posed the question to Macie of what to be, she said a "cowboy princess"--meaning a cowgirl, of course! At the church we met up with our friends the Selby's--their youngest, Davis, is the cute little Dalmation. There is another couple at church who are avid motorcycle riders, and Jack and Mae got to sit on the motorcycle for a photo...I am afraid Jack enjoyed that a bit too much for my liking!

Fall Soccer































Soccer time again for Jack! Last year was his first season with the Y, and he's asked all year when it would be time to play again...he really enjoys it. Funny, he's the same team name again--Toronto Cheetahs--Coach took his suggestion for the name, just like Bryan let him name the team last year!

More Fall Ball





























Callie continues to improve in her softball skills this fall...it's been fun to watch her figure things out, get better, and have lots of fun! Her coach seems to really enjoy her being on the team--I think being a lefty has it's advantages!!

Pumpkin Patch



































































































































































































































































































































































































It's finally time for pumpkins!!! I love fall, and pumpkins, hayrides, pumpkin patches, fall colors- the whole bit. There is a farm nearby that does the annual pumpkin patch thing, and the kids have enjoyed going there the past couple of years. This year they had some ginormous pumpkins! Jack had the swift idea to roll one over onto him, and it was all funny until he couldn't get it off! I personally like the picture of Bryan with the scarecrow...
