Halloween at Preschool

Isabella's class at TVP

Creating the best Jack-o-lantern

This was a spider cookie made out of an Oreo and licorice ropes, Paige was able to go and take a bunch of pictures for us since I had worked the night before and Heidi has just tissue damage in her hand(not broken per the Radiologist report).

Halloween night we took the kids with our friends Troy and Dawn and their two little ones trick or treating. We had a wonderful time watching all the little kids run from house to house "beggin" for candy. The weather held out, no rain or wind really, a truly nice Halloween night.

Jumping Jack

Jack has found something he enjoys more than a nap in the afternoon. He does this for 30-45 minutes without stopping. I wish I had that much energy.

Long Day...Gone right

I came home the other day to find Jack still in his highchair after lunch, the girls standing around him and snapping photos. Way too cute to not take pictures!

Preschool Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

Jack was able to come along on the field trip, and had a nice time playing on the peewee hay maze!

Isabella and her new friends checking out the chickens, no fear there yet(yep, I am afraid of chickens)

For some odd reason the most interesting thing at the time was putting rocks into the orange cones...they were all doing it.

Nice to see a little sisterly love!!

Inside the Potato Barn, who knew that they actually just pile them up and leave them in a dark barn? I guess we all learned something on the field trip to the farm.

All in all we had a wonderful time, the kids played and the adults networked and talked about how wonderful it would be if there were wine tasting there.

Final update on Cross Country

So Abigail finished up her Cross Country for the year, taking 11th in JV Girls District!!!! Out of 80 girls including some Varsity girls as well. We couldn't be more proud of her success. She is quite the little speed demon and we are looking forward to spring when she plans to do long distance track as well. Keep on running......

Preschool and the Pumpkin Patch

Picking the perfect pumpkin is very difficult, but Isabella seemed to be quite skilled at it for only being 3 years old. Way to go!!! She had a wonderful time with all of her new friends from preschool, Mom also made some new friends today.

Last weeks CC Meet

Isabella and Taylor(my niece) had a wonderful time playing together while Abigail was preparing for her race.

They spent their time tracing every line on the baseball field where we were.

Abigail and her teammate, posing nicely

A little nervous right before the start, but she relaxed and ran hard

Abigail did GREAT!! Took 2nd and as you can tell from the photo she was (not) happy about it. She ran hard and kicked it in the end but her teammate had a little more left at the end. Great Job Ab!!!!
