Thanksgiving

We went to my sister Katie's house for Thanksgiving but I didn't take any pictures. We had a ton of fun and they were great hosts to much of my family. We had a great meal and I made my first apple pie from scratch that turned out pretty dang good. The boys did some shooting and the girls did some shopping. It was a great holiday. Kade had his Thanksgiving feast at school last Wednesday and made these 2 costumes. Ryan and Jeff put up the Christmas lights and needed some hot cocoa to warm up. A little male bonding time!

Got Milk Shake?

Kade Turns SiX!!!

Kade had his birthday a few weeks ago! His birthday is always one big party! It is so close to Halloween that it makes for a lot of excitement! This year we decided to celebrate with the fam on Halloween so we could trick or treat afterwards all together. The kids really had a good time. Kade went through his first haunted house. After he said he never wanted to go through one again because it was so stupid. I think he might be like me and not really like the scary stuff! Kade is getting so big and mature these days. I have really enjoyed watching him mature over the past few years. He is such a smart, sensitive kid. We are so truly blessed to have him in our lives. I can't wait to see what his future holds! I can't believe that he is six!!


Breakfast of champions chosen by Kade! (Warning: I do not recommend donuts for breakfast! It got a little crazy after this breakfast!)




Bowling with friends.



Jeff rocked the bowling! I think my family might have to join a league someday! My boys are bowlers!

Fall Harvest Party!

This year we grew our own pumpkins at my mom's. We were so excited about it we decided to make a night of it! We went to Linder farms to let the kids play and feed the animals and then we headed back to my parents to harvest the pumpkins. We had like 26 of them!! They were big and beautiful! We had some warm food and a bonfire! It was so much fun!
