Trick or Treat

We had a spooktacular evening! Sam was a pirate, and if I can brag, the cutest one out there! Sadie was a witch but she claims that she was a good witch and would do no harm to anyone in her path! She was great with helping her brother figure out what this trick-or-treating stuff is all about! We missed Josh tonight, and the pictures show that we did not have our "real" photographer with us! We hope everyone else enjoyed their night and that no one got too scared!

Getting Ready for Halloween!

We have had a great night carving pumpkins and thought that we would share our creations with you! The bat is our favorite! We were able to carve all three without major cuts. However we did have a couple melt downs because the kids were not able to do it ALL by themselves so they went a little bit crazy! Sadie and Sam are looking forward to "Trick or Treating." I don't think that we need anymore candy..... but am looking forward to having a spooky night! PS Sadie drew the face on the Jack-O-Lantern all by herself, and then I cut it out for her, but she is quite the budding artist!

Learning to Fly

Sam is learning so much these days.

Swimming

When it's 110 all you can do outside is swim. Some recent photos of the kids swimming. Who do you think Sam got his floaters handed down from?!

Sadie's First Day of School

Sadie is official! She has started Preschool! She has been so excited for this day for quite some time! Sadie had a new outfit and her great smile and was ready to go to LMNO school with Miss Nikkii. Sadie has a lot of friends in her class, including one of her best friends Kingston. She loved her first day and earned both of her stars! She can't wait to learn more!

Fun Pictures!

Sadie had to take a picture to her "Meet the Teacher Day" and so we took some pictures of both of the kids. Nothing to spectacular but yet fun to see a current picture of both of the kids!

Santa Cruz!

On our wild California Adventure we stopped in Santa Cruz and played on the boardwalk! I think we all had a great time! Sadie loved the Merry-Go-Round. All of the big kids loved the old wooden roller coaster! Sadie about broke her neck on the car ride but decided to go several times!

Fishing Fun!

We had a great summer this year! One of the highlights was going to visit Grandma and Grandpa Caldwell! Sadie still talks about her "giant" fish that she caught. Unfortunately I think Sam's fish is much larger. Fish stories, why does this fish always grow?
