Popcorn Ball Time

After we got home from the pumpkin farm/halloween costume adventure, Jason made popcorn balls with the kids while mommy supervised and took pictures...steering clear of the gooey stuff. :) The kids had a blast and loved every minute of it. I think they are ol' popcorn ball pros now...just like their daddy! They turned out really yummy!!

Here are some pics...

**jammies came off while they were making the popcorn balls to ensure that there would be no sticky messy jammies in the process :)

Having Fun at the Pumpkin Farm

A couple of weekends ago we took the kids to the pumpkin farm. It was a really nice day, so it was packed with people. The kids played in the playhouses, on the hay, and on the pirate ship; we went through the corn maze, visited the petting zoo, and picked out pumpkins. Anabelle wasn't a big fan of the corn maze. She was worried that we would never find our way out. Brady, on the other hand, LOVED it! He was the leader and found our way out. He was so proud! After we were done at the pumpkin farm, we went to the Halloween store and bought the kids their costumes. Then it was off to eat at the Texas Roadhouse for some dinner...YUM! It was a great family day!

Fall Festival Fun

September has been a busy month with Fall Festivals. We have been to three already and have one that we are going to this weekend too. We are having lots of fun!

Here's some pics...

1st Day of Kindergarten & Preschool Orientation Day

I know I'm a little late in posting these pics of the first day of Kindergarten and Preschool orientation day...but...better late than never! :)





Anabelle is just loving Kindergarten sooooooo much! She brought home her first progress report on Friday. In every area...Literacy, Math, Writing, Social/Emotional Development, Listening, Speaking, Fine Motor Development..., she got a "NC" mark meaning "No concern at this time". Her teacher also wrote "Anabelle is doing great!!"

Brady is also doing a great job in preschool. I received an update email from his preschool teacher letting me know that Brady is doing a wonderful job in class. I am on my third year of helping the kids with their weekly preschool homework of a number and letter each week. At the end of the school year, the teachers put the homework all together in a book that has all their A to Z papers and 1 through 20 papers.

My blogs may become very infrequent because things have just been so crazy busy lately with the kids being in school, homework, gymnastics, soccer, soon cheerleading, etc... Not to mention we just bought a lot that we are going to soon be building on. I can't wait to look for our house plan! Fun fun! :)
