Happy Birthday Grandpa!

The Halloween festivities have started.....

First with the annual trick or treating at the office and then the Fall Festival at Noah's new school!! So much fun!! We can't wait till Thursdays parties at school and trick or treating that night! The kids also got to go to the club house Halloween party tonight and go on the haunted trail, play lots of games and do some trunk or treating :-) Sorry no pictures from that event.

During all the festivities we also enjoyed a visit with Grandpa and Great Grandpa!!! Thanks to Papa for taking us all on a beautiful morning cruise on the lake as well! We even snuck in a little visit with Miss Peyton!! Love that little girl!!

And I have to throw in a GO FSU comment :-)

And a GO CARDINALS from my adorable niece Madi!!!

Happy 6th Birthday Haley!!!

Haley and Noah's b day parties isn't until 11/9 but Haley had a great b day this year it seems! She had a special night with Mimi and Grandpa, then woke up to balloons in her room again, a fish tank which she got to pick out 3 fish for now that she's such a big girl, a surprise lunch at school with Mommy, Mimi and Aunt Sher Sher! She was loving this!! We also celebrated that night with dinner at IHOP (her request) with Grandma, Papa, Grandpa, her other Grandpa and Great Grandpa and of course Noah, Daddy and Mommy! She also got a special b day gift delivery from Sis! Lastly she had a b day celebration at school the next day too with all her friends!! What a b day week!!

Haley's first Pep Rally!

Its official.....we are Cheer Mom, Cheer Grandma and Cheer Mimi's and we have the t-shirts to prove it. Hahaha! Mimi didn't have a chance to put hers on tonight but she does have the shirt. Haley and her cheer squad did so good tonight, very proud of them and all their hardwork! Way to go girls!!

This is the first time these Kindergarten girls have performed their routine (3/4 of it) in front of an audience and it was freezing and windy that night!!!! Can’t wait to see them do the entire routine on 11/3/13 at the Cheer Bowl!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

First time to the fair for Haley and Noah!

We got off to a bit of a rough start with the first ride for Noah but after rising the train and then the airplanes he was ready to go! Haley of course loved all of the rides and rollercoasters just like her Mommy and Aunts :-D What a wonderful day with Mimi, Grandpa, Papa, Daddy and Mommy!!!

At first it looked promising and then......

Now this was a little more Noah's pace...

Big sister helping Noah get braver.....

Now he's ready to go and Haley was off to ride a little more scary ride

Haley not only talked Noah into being brave but also talked Mimi into getting on a rollercoaster!!! Yes it's a kiddie one but for someone who's favorite ride has always been the park bench this is big!!

Just before leaving we had to let Haley finally go on the ferris wheel!!! She had been asking all week to go to the fair to ride this. So crazy because this was actually a very big Ferris wheel but she did great and wasn't nervous at all Grandpa said. Thanks Grandpa for going with her on this adventure! Such a brave little girl, so proud of her! That's them at the very very top waiting for others to get on!

Fun Friday night!

A great soccer practice which was followed up by a trip to the ice cream store and then topped off with our first family night sleep over :-D The kids got to make popcorn and stay up late watching movies in the media room and then got to sleep in there together!! What a fun night!
