Beach

fter Mark arrived in Houston we headed to the beach for the day.
I really pictured the kids playing in the sand in their clothes (maybe jackets), but
it was low 80's that day and the Gulf was warm. The kids were playing in the water most of the day. They LOVE the water!








Luke thoroughly enjoyed "painting" himself in muddy sand

just getting to the beach!

what a ham! eating before heading to the beach

Halloween

Best Halloween!
We started the day in costumes for Luke's preschool parade and party.
Left party early for KC's gymnastics class.
Home for a little rest (for the kids that is....mommy doesn't rest much)
Back into costumes for some trick-or-treating with Audrey.
Stunt practice in from Luke....
Luke took a dive off of a concrete step (probably the 3rd house we went to)
He tripped face first and continued to roll in the grass.
After some crying and a little talk from daddy he was good to go
and off we went down the street. We had a great time
with the Turners and the kids did awesome going
to the door by themselves saying "trick or treat" and "thank you"
then...
we headed to Sherman to hang out with the Brittons and many more
let me just tell you folks...
Sherman, IL knows how to do some trick-or-treating
it was like nothing I have ever seen before
the firemen were out in uniform handing out candy from their FIRETRUCK
AND
had their lights on
AND
let the kids sit in driver seat for a little photo op!
it was like one huge block party. many people were having potlucks and get togethers
in their garages while the kids played.
So much fun!

LT waved to me the whole time they were taking the class picture! (mommy liked it)
the parade (audrey, chase, luke, and tyler)

Leaves, leaves, leaves

One of the best parts of fall!
I have so many childhood memories jumping in those
HUGE
piles of leaves and now I get to watch my
kids do this...



I think he looks like his uncle Mark in this picture

Picnic and Water fun in October?

This post is a little out of order. It was still this month, but at the beginning when we had
those few warm days. The kids really wanted to eat
lunch outside and the weather was perfect for a picnic.
Why not? Winter will be here before we know it!
The sprinker pictures, oh my!
Mark was fertilizing the yard and set up the sprinkler in the back to water the
grass. He had moved to the front yard, I was in the basement, KC was "napping", and Luke was with Mark (so I thought). Mark came inside to let me know that the kids were playing the sprinkler! I'm confused, Luke is with you and KC is taking a nap. Not the case! These two
turkeys were playing in their underwear in the sprinkler!

Picnic with the kids
Luke snagged the camera and took this picture


Bare feet!







Fall Fest 2011

Every year our church has a fall festival with yummy food and games for the kids. We look forward
to it every year! The kids had so much fun playing in the inflatables
and games.
Posing before we left
