Batman

Yesterday at the Halloween party at the park, Brody was climbing a high structure. I got under him to make sure he didn't fall. This is how our conversation went.

Brody: "Go away, Mommy."

Me: "I'm just here to make sure you don't fall, Bro."

Brody: "Mommy, me have a cape."

I burst out laughing. I love my little Batman. He was sure that if he fell, he would just fly!

Orange, Pumpkin Day

I love helping in Maddy's class and today was Orange, Pumpkin Day. We all wore orange and carved a pumpkin. They estimated how many candy corns were in a jar and decided what shapes to use for their jack-o-lantern. We had orange snacks and played together on the playground. Maddy and I hoola hooped together for awhile. It was a great day with my girl! Thanks to my sis for watching the Brodster. xo



Before school. Maddy and Grey were ready for school. Bro was silly guy.

This was too funny. The girls were all doing a cheer. It went like this. "1, 2, 3 Girls!" They did it over and over again. Too cute!

Birthday dinner

Happy 60th birthday to my Dad!! What an amazing 60 years full of memories, laughs, fun and love! We celebrated him by going to Vegas and had a great time. About three weeks ago my sister, Alyssa, came up with this great idea to contact 60 people from dad's past and have them write a memory about him. We did it and recevied loads of mail all about dad.  We created a cool scrapbook and put all of the memories into it. We presented Dad with this book on Saturday night in Vegas. He was touched! It was so cool to learn things about our Dad that we didn't know. We learned about the day he became pro and how he just wanted to call and tell Mom. We learned about the young "crazy" kid he was and many more. We had a fabulous time in Vegas! Happy Birthday Dad! Love you.

Go #5

It's soccer season again! This year Maddy and Greyson are on the same team, the Rockstars! They have had two games so far. The first game was a typical "first game." Tears, tiredness and wanting to stop. The second game, they were ROCKSTARS!! Maddy was running after the ball, smiling and saying how fun it was! Brody wants to play SO bad. Soon enough he will be old enough. We know he will be our little athlete.

So proud of you Mad!

Go #5

Yep, that's Bro cheering them on!



Fancy Nancy

We headed over to the Children's Book Festival and got to meet the author/illustrator of the Fancy Nancy books. Maddy and I enjoy reading these together. It was a ridiculously HOT day, but we had a good time. Gamma joined us for the fun too!

And then we got our faces painted....flowers and spiders! It explains them perfectly. :)
