Happy Halloween

We continued our tradition of pumpkin pizza and trick or treating at Craig and Jen's.

Austin, Tyden, Noah, Eli, and Katelynn

Eli couldn't finish eating because his loose tooth was bugging him. Since Aunt Jennifer wasn't here, Uncle Bryant (Jen's brother-in-law) was on tooth pulling duty.

cobber homecoming

We were missing a few girls this year due to little things like Disney World trips, 10 year anniversary celebrations, and very sick kids, but Amber and I had fun anyway!A 25 minute 5k?? I'll take it, but I'm pretty sure things were a little "off" at the finish line.

busy week

We hosted an early Halloween party on Saturday. Noah has been a little obsessed with the day. He and I had fun shopping for decorations, searching for recipes, and organizing games.

Tuesday I went with Eli's class to an art museum. That afternoon, he had to run a mile for gym, and parents were invited to watch. I actually ran with him. His time was 10:09 which was over two minutes faster than his practice time.

Today I went with Noah's class to the pumpkin patch. His favorite thing was the hay bale maze. My favorite thing was watching him interact with his friends.

Papa's Pumpkin Patch

We had a fun weekend visit with the Kinney's. Due to the spring flooding, Papa's Pumpkin Patch was at the speedway. Some of the "pumpkin patch feel" got lost in the move, and the unseasonable heat didn't help. However, the kids loved playing in the hay, and they always have a great time with their cousins!
