Halloween Parties and Costume Parades at School!

Can anyone guess what Mikelle is?
Cutest little Tinkerbell I've ever seen!

I love her fun little personality! She loves to pose for the camera!

The kindergartners get to wear costumes to school and parade thru all the classrooms! They also go trick or treating at the banks, so Mikelle got to go trick of treat to Daddy at State Bank! FUN!The first graders had the option of bringing a costume to wear after lunch or just wear pajamas for "pajama day"!

Tyler opted to wear his spiderman pj's so he wouldn't have to change, because his outfit is like pajamas and a costume.....ha ha! I thought it was a great idea too!

Hope you all have a safe, fun, and Happy Halloween!!!

Crazy Hair Day!!!

Ok, this one has nothing to do with crazy hair! It was just so cute I had to throw it in!
Shae is showing off a new flower clip I made!

I love the pose....ha ha!

It is Red Ribbon Week at school! Monday they wore "Camo" to help in the fight against drugs! Tuesday they wore "crazy socks" so they could sock it to drugs (or something like that). Wednesday they wore their clothes "inside out or backwards" because drugs turn you inside out (I think).

Today is "Crazy Hair Day", something about it's crazy to do drugs! Side view of Mikelle's hair!

Tyler, and the back of Mikelle's hair! We sprayed glitter in her hair too! Tomorrow is Pajama Day and Halloween costumes! FUN!!!

Austin fell asleep mid-bite! I just thought it was so funny! I have picture of Mikelle with an apple slice hanging out of her mouth in this same recliner chair! It's just so comfy and they are just so tired........can't........take.......one........more.........bite.......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!

He is eating a veggie straw!

Showing off another flower! What a good little model! I love my kids.....they are all just so stinkin' cute!!!

Homecoming Parade!

The High School has a parade every year and the kindergarteners always get to be in it! So fun!

They get to dress up like football players and cheerleaders!

Shaelynn and Daddy waiting to watch the parade!

Mikelle is our little cheerleader! She was so cute!

All the kids after the parade........Austin couldn't break away from his sucker long enough to look at the camera! :)

Pumpkin Pictures!!!

Grandma Lauri came to see Mikelle in the homecoming parade (pics of that coming later)!
So we picked a bunch of pumpkins to send home with her for our annual Halloween Party! Can't wait to paint or carve them in a couple weeks! Yea!!!

I love pumpkin pictures.....so I wanted to grow pumpkins in my garden to have my own pumpkin patch! Well, the squash bugs ate my plants so my pumpkin patch is not so cute!

So we had to pick the pumpkins and take pictures on the grass! I need a bale of hay or somethin' to make a cute background! Maybe next year!

Austin, Shaelynn, and Mikelle had fun playing in the pumpkins!

Shaelynn is our "cute lil' punkin"! What a cutie!

Gone Fishin'......

Football practice was canceled on Monday because there was no school, so Daniel got off work a little early and we went to Mammoth Creek to do a little fishin' for FHE!
This is the first place I tried putting Shaelynn, but she wouldn't stay on the blanket. She just kept crawling off to eat grass and bugs!

The kids mostly just got their feet wet, because they said it was too cold! Tyler caught some water skeeters though!

I just liked the kind of silhouette type look of this pic!

What a hot guy over there casting his line......

Austin's favorite thing to do was find big rocks to throw in the water! (And scare all the fish away....ha ha! We didn't catch anything......but we still had lots of fun!)

He is havin' a great time!

Shaelynn is helping Daddy untie knots......or vice versa.....I'm not sure!

I think we finally found the perfect spot for Shae! She couldn't eat anything nasty and she liked being up where she could see everybody!

Austin even came to play with her for a minute.....in between throwing rocks!

They loved being outside and going for walks! We just need to remember to be fully clothed and have tennis shoes instead of flip flops next time! There is lots of stinging nettle up there.....and though we were careful, Austin still tripped and touched some with his hand!

Happy kids!!! (Mikelle in a bathing suit and a jacket...ha ha)

Daniel took a picture of us on the bridge......this is the road view!

And this is the river view......pretty huh?

Mikelles' 6th Birthday!

A few pictures of Mikelle thru the years (the farthest back I could find was 2 yrs. old)
She has always loved animals! This Great Grandma Church's dog!

3 yrs. old.....holding her new baby brother Austin! She has always loved babies too! :)

4 yr. old princess birthday party! So pretty!

5 yrs. old......just posing for the camera.....to show off a new hairdo I tried! I love that pretty smile!

6 years old!!!! We opened a few presents on her birthday and she is wearing her birthday crown from kindergarten where she got to take cupcakes for her birthday snack!

Blowing out the candles at her party we had with Grandma and Grandpa on the weekend!

Shaelynn managed to steal a handful of Austin's cupcake! She's a quick one!

Mouthful of stolen cupcake.......cute little stinker!!!

Mikelle is so fun and is just growing up so fast! She loves school and friends and we are happy to have this pretty girl in our family! Love you Mikelle! :)

Matching outfits....

Two is do-able......but you add one more to the mix and there is always one that won't cooperate! More proof of this (that two is do-able) in the post below! :)
Shaelynn was not happy about this pic....

Austin was distracted by a spider on the wall.....

See.......two we can work with.....doesn't matter which two as long as there's only two......*sigh*

This one is just funny to me.....not sure what's going on.....

The only way to get Shaelynn to be happy was to let her chew on a rock..........but these are their cute matching outfits nonetheless......
