Trick or Treat

Our little Knight in Shining Armor was quite a hit! He and Kaylee had so much fun running from door to door together! Even "Cricket" got in on the costumes as per Conner's request!

Carving Pumpkins

We had a lot of fun carving pumpkins, Conner wanted a U2 spy plane and Thomas on his pumpkin, Steve used his pumpkin's stem to his advantage and it turned out really cute!

Ducks!

We also enjoyed a "Duck Ride". The Ducks are old WWII vehicles that have been modified for touring. They are amphibious vehicles which was a lot of fun. Conner even got to drive in Table Rock lake.

Branson Scenic Railway

We had a great trip to Branson last week. We all enjoyed the time together, the time with family, and the friendly people. One of the days we took a train ride through the Ozark "Mountains", which are really more like hills. Here are some memories from the train!



My "Gommy" and her friend Nancy on the train and me and my daddy!






Conner's favorite parts were going through the "Cricket Tunnel", in case you don't know Cricket is the name we are all calling his little sister. He also loved crossing the Trestle and we all enjoyed the fall colors that were just starting to change.

Apple Picking

We went Apple Picking with some friends this weekend in Tehachapi, it was a nice fall day and Conner loved gathering apples. He has big plans and has promised his class he will bring homemade Apple Pie sometime this week. We will see how mom is feeling! Hopefully I can deliver.

5 YEARS OLD!!!

Its so hard to believe that 5 years ago we had a 6 lb baby boy and now he is 5! What a blessing he is! He keeps us laughing all the time and scares us with his intelligent comments and amazing memory. Here are some shots of him opening a few things from Mommy and Daddy and eating his Lemon Cooler Cake as requested.

5 Laps

Its so hard to believe our little boy is a 5 year old! We celebrated his birthday with a Race Car themed party this year. It was a lot of fun. We served Racing Tacos, Decorated with Car parts and enjoyed entertaining in our new home. They kids had a ball. It was a windy rainy evening so they were stuck inside which was a little noisy but well worth it! We are so blessed to have such a special little boy and such wonderful friends and family. Here are a few pictures of the fun!
