Fun Visit

Today we had a great day at Nan and Pa Black's. Pa and Uncle B were there so the kids were so happy to see everyone. I won't tell you how long it has been since we have seen them. (too long) The kids loved riding around with Pa and Summer provided the entertainment for the day.

They were taking turns but Pa said they could both ride.

The Cowboy and The Little Ladybug

Well let's just say we survived Halloween.

It took three suckers and telling Summer her Uncle B would not come over if she did not put her costume on. Then Austin's leg was hurting from his flu shot so once I got him dressed he stood there and looked at me like I was crazy. We went trick or treating to a couple of houses and then came home and the kids crashed.

Summer enjoying her reward!

Pumpkin Patch

Chad and I took the kids to the pumpkin patch yesterday. This was our third year to go to this pumpkin patch and the first year both kids were able to run around. As soon as we got out of the car Austin took off and walked down every row. Of course it is impossible to get them both to look at me for a picture.

Please just look at mommy one time

One more try

Summer Being Sweet

Awesome Pictures

So I was looking through friend's blogs and a found a girl who takes pictures and fell in love with them. She came over this morning and took pictures of the kids playing in the backyard. It was so nice to be able to be at home and not in a studio. I am sure you can imagine how hard it is to keep Austin still when taking pictures so this was perfect. They got to play and be themselves.

Here is the link to look at the pictures. http://photographybymissy.blogspot.com/2008/10/austin-and-summer.html

I will be getting the disc this week which has 50 pictures I am sure I will post them all for you to see.

Pray for Isaac

Update: Isaac is home! Thank you for all of your prayers.

We Have POWER!!!!

Yes it just came on! I can't believe we made it for ten days. Chad blessed us with getting a generator before the storm. We rented it so we were going to return it on Sunday ha ha. We ended up keeping it for a week and then buying our own. It was so nice to have some electricity.

God was great and sent 60* weather at night. There was no damage to our house so that was amazing. I am so proud of Austin and Summer they did great it was hard at night but they loved all the attention they got from us. They got to play outside a ton and I finally got the wagon I had been wanting for a couple of months. In fact when I wanted it it was $150. We found the last one at Academy and the box was open. I knew there was going to be a wheel or something missing. When we went to buy it the final cost was $19.88 I was so happy. Chad even hooked it to the back of the Cruising Cooler. I will post more pictures later. We are off to get some rest in our bed (not the couch).

This is for Jessica and Misty-Do you want me to post the picture of the beat up and open wagon box? Then I could be like the other bloggers we view!

Labor Day

We spent our Labor Day at the lake house. It was a nice vacation and the weather was perfect. This was Summer's first time to get in the water. The kids had fun playing on the deck with the floats and Austin and Poppy made a sidewalk splash pad that Austin really enjoyed.

First Day of School and Luau

Austin and Summer are going to the same daycare this year and it is going great. They are in the same class which is funny because Summer is too young for this class and Austin is too old but they love it. (2 year old room) Everyone there adores Austin. They even had to go through special inspections so he could have a bottle and a crib in his classroom for napping.

He still goes to school in the mornings so the bus picks him and up and takes him back to daycare. The bus drivers say he is one of the best to drive! Summer loves daycare once I leave. She puts on a show when I drop her off kicking and screaming.

These are pics I took before their class party!

One Last Play Day

Ok so I am behind on my posts. Once school starts it gets pretty crazy around here.

The last week of summer we went to Jumping Jak's. The kids had fun playing in the ball pits and running around. I loved it and only cost $4!

It'z so much fun!

We went to It'z for a birthday party recently. The kids had fun riding all the rides and playing the games. They both loved the roller coaster so much we rode it twice! Of course Chad and I had just as much fun as they did!

I am ready Daddy.
My turn to ride with daddy.
