Carnival, Birthday Party & Singing

We took the kids to Blaney Elementarys little carnival Saturday afternoon. We got there an hour before it ended so they didn't get to do everything but they did get to ride a horse and just in a few of the inflatables. We also went to Calebs 3rd birthday party on the lake. We had a great time on the paddle boat & the kids enjoyed fishing and the baby turtle we found. Brookes little choir sang Sunday morning which is always very cute and entertaining. Also, Brooke is a pop corn winner which means she has learned all her popcorn words for school. She is like the 7th or 8th kid in her class to learn all forty something of them. I am very proud of her!! We go to the pumpkin patch with her class tomorrow then Trunk or Treat at church Wednesday night so should have some cute pictures to post. Hope everyone has a great halloween.

Bunco, Boo @ the Zoo & Buddy Bear

Friday night I went to Bunco at Rachels house. Although Sheri & I didn't think we were ever gonna get there once we did we had such a great time. I can not wait till Novembers. Saturday night we took the kids to Boo @ the Zoo & Heaths parents went with us. The kids got like 8 pieces of candy each but they did have a good time. I must say they were the cutest spider & flower I have ever seen, lol! Brooke had Buddy Bear from school this weekend that is what she is holding in her costume picture. She was so excited to have him for a weekend but that excitement had worn off by saturday. Hope everyone has a great week!

The State Fair & Dads new ride

We took the kids to the fair saturday since Brooke said all the kids at school have been. It was hot but not really crowded like I thought it would be. The kids chose a roller coaster as the first ride. Well, I told Brady I thought it was a bad idea that it would be to fast for him and he said no it not I won't cry. Well, less then 10 seconds in to the ride he was screaming and the guy had to stop the ride. You can see him crying in the picture. It was funny because when he stopped the ride two other little boys chose to get off as well. He then decided after that he was not riding anything which Brooke said good that leaves more tickets for me. It took forever to go thru all the tickets when her rides only take 2 so I started riding some with her just to get rid of them. Brady did atleast enjoy petting a donkeys tail & peeling his corn dog just to get to the hot dog. We were there for several hours but the kids had a great time and Heath & I ate until we were miserable.

This month is pastor appreciation and the church suprised my dad with a new camry on sunday. It was needed since the truck they got him six years ago has almost 200, 000 miles on it. For those of you who pass the office on Wildwood Lane you can see it parked out there next to his secretarys white camry. He definetly deserved it. I am so proud and lucky to have a dad who truly loves the Lord with ALL his heart and serves him no matter what but yet has a sense of humor and a dorky side to him at the same time. Dad, I know you read these so I had to add the dorky part just so you don't get a big head.

Field Trip

Today Brookes class went on a field trip to Sesqui park. Brady, Heath & I met them out there. Heath got to enjoy lunch with us before heading to work at 10:00 am since he got home from Rhode Island last night he got to go in late this morning. Yes, we ate lunch at 9:45 this morning. We got there at 9 & left around 11:30. The kids got to play on playground, see the waterfall & go on a nature walk. Some of them were most excited about riding the bus.

I am also including pictures from our sunday school cook out saturday night of Brady playing football with the big guys.

Fun with Friends

Blogging twice in a week you can tell Heath is out of town. I get my chores down at night now that he's not here to be in the way, lol!! I thought these were cute pictures of Brady, Ty & Ashlyn with Laurie giving them "tractor rides". We take turns one day a week keeping the kids while the others volunteer in the school & get some things done. Yesterday Laurie called me and said look out your window the bad thing is later last night we did it again. I am sure the neighbors think we are the biggest rednecks but oh well. I am also including pictures I took of the boys last week playing in helmets. I couldn't get them to take them off for anything.

Last night the kids and I were reading our bible story & then I said when we pray tonight we need to pray that daddy will be safe on his trip. Brady said I will pray for daddy & he said God is great please help daddy not fall out the airplane. I thought that was to cute but kind of sad that he really thought his daddy could fall out the plane.
