SNOW

We ended up with snow in October, crazy right? Not if you are 6 years old and have a snowmobile you are dying to ride and your name is Connor. Connor, Emma and I came out of the mall last night to find our car covered in snow and again this morning Connor woke with excitement because our yard had a dusting of snow on it. He was in great hope that there would be enough snow this afternoon for him to ride on the road around the circle, to mom's excitement there was not. Oh well says Connor maybe we can try again tomorrow. Mom did not have the heart to tell him that it is looking like 60's again by Friday.

Pumpkin Carving

Sunday night we decided to carve pumpkins. Gigi and Poppy came to help. Poppy got the bright idea to tell Connor that he better take off his shirt, so he does not get messy. However Emma thought WOW poppy, that sounds like a great idea. They both did have very cute Halloween shirts on, planned out by mom so they would look festive. As you can see that did not work out so good. Who invited that Gigi and Poppy any who:-) All in all the kids had a great time, and we have nice looking jack-o-lanterns for Friday night.

Family Photo's

A couple of weekends ago, we had some family photo's done that were well over due. The last photo's we had taken Emmi had very little hair. O.K. so some of you are saying that could not be that long ago. I do believe she was about 3 years old and Connor about 4, about 2 years ago. It is amazing how fast the time goes by. I feel like they were just 3 and 4 but Connor is 6 and Emma 4 1/2, getting to big to fast. The photo's were taken @ three mile bay on Oneida Lake, by a mom that we meet @ football who is trying to start her own photography business. We were her first attempt. If anyone sees a photo they would like please let me know, I can get a copy of it for you in any size you would like.

A Night @ the Zoo

We took the kids to Burnett Park Zoo Friday night with two other families we meet through football and had a night @ the Zoo Boo. They were all very interested in the monsters and such but not interested enought to get close enough for a picture. As you can probably tell I did not get a choice in the Halloween costume for Connor the Transformer Bumblebee. No more cute fuzzy costumes and as for Emma, she had decided to go as a turtle still cute and fuzzy.

The FIREHOUSE

Emma and Noel went on Friday to Emma's 1st field trip of the year. I'm not sure but that may be another career choice for Emma. She really enjoyed spraying the fire hose, hanging out in the fire engine and wearing her official fireman hat.

Rainy Day

Today was a rainy day so we decided to make Halloween cookies. We made bats, ghosts, pumpkins and cats. Kaden was definitely more into eating then decorating but he still had fun. Emma loved the sprinkles. Moose took his time and spread his frosting very thin. (crazy kid) and Nina loved to frost, and of course all liked to lick the frosting from the knives, fingers what ever had frosting. We saved some cookies for Connor for when he came home from school so he was not left out. He missed the mixing and rolling out the dough but I think he was happy with just eating the out come.

The Last Soccer Game

Saturday was our last soccer game for Connor, his favorite postion was goalie. He did not always pay attention but he was doing good here. After the game his coaches set up a party @ a local sports center for the trophy hand out. As you can see Connor is very proud of his trophy.

A Night Under the LIGHTS

Connor and his pop warner team were invited to play under the lights @ the Central Square H.S. varsity team's turf field. Connor and all had a great time. They all looked mighty tiny compared to the "Big Guys" as the "Little Guys" called them. Hard to believe that some day that could be my "Little Guy".

A Day @ the Farm

We had a great day up north @ Old McDonald's Farm. We went with Rhonda, Deanna, Ethan, Angela and Eva. We took a wagon ride, feed some goats, pigs, and cows. We took some pony rides. Had a picnic lunch, picked some pumpkins and even ventured into a corn maze that we all safely exited. All in all it was great day for it and after all that we ended it with a cup of ice cream for all. Who could ask for anything more.

APPLE PICKING

The Tooth Fairy Has Come Again

If anyone has the book all about the Tooth Fairy you should know, that she takes a picture every time you loose a tooth. However the other night she must have forgotten her camera and used ours. Emma was not happy with the Tooth Fairy and Connor could not beleive he did not wake up to the flash. That Tooth Fairy sure is TRICKY.

"Houston we lost another Tooth"

Take a peek at the gap in the teeth here- Looks similar to Uncle Mike when he was 14... I think Uncle Mike had missing front teeth for 7 years...
