Fall

Fall is definitely here. We kicked the season off with a visit to a pumpkin patch. Alyssa enjoyed walking around trying to figure the pumpkins out with me continuously saying 'smile'. She didn't seem to understand why I kept doing that, but I finally got one!







The boys' fall sports are coming to an end. Bryce & Spencer played baseball and Everhett played Soccer. They will most likely play the same sports again in the spring. They enjoy their sports! But we are looking forward to the down time during the lil break in between.

Halloween

Rick and his famous annual pumpkin carving. We have one every year for the trick or treaters. He's so proud!



The boys enjoyed 'creating' their costumes this year. I think Rick had the most fun adding to their look. With the cut up old black sheet and netting to make the 'Ghouls' appear actual, they had a blast showing off their costumes. Alyssa was just trying to take it all in. The boys had to show her themselves as they put their masks on to help prevent her from getting scared. After seeing them a few times, she had fun with them.




Alyssa was a cute lil lady bug! She did very well with keeping her hood on as well.






Halloween is always an enjoyable time each year. We eat too much candy, but it starts the holiday season off just right!
