Happy EARLY Birthday Kayley

For our monthly get-together/cousin B-day Party Kayley wanted a Cat-Cake. It was a lot of work but we think it turned out pretty well!

Happy Early Birthday Kayley!

FALL

Picking pumpkins form our garden.

CARVING PUMPKINS
Both Moriah and Kayley did a GREAT job at carving their pumpkins by themselves!

Jacob was so excited for Daddy to help him carve his pumpkin.

Zac loves to color, so he enjoying coloring his pumpkin this year!

HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL
Kayley's school carnival was FUN, FUN, FUN! We helped out at the "bowling booth" had lunch and went around playing the other games.

Zac LOVED the air slide, Jacob did too. I thought Zac was a little too little, but no, he wanted to go again and again just like his BIG brother!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Kids Update

Zachary is walking on his own more and more each day. It is so fun to see him get up and go!

Jacob has been enjoying his tumbling class! It is so nice to have something for him to do while the girls are at school.

Kayley enjoyed playing fall soccer again! This year the season seemed way too short!

Moriah had her FIRST orchestra concert (Halloween themed). It was really fun to go to!

Every year we TRY to camp with Mark's siblings. This year we made it out for a day trip, and then we came back the next day to do it again, it's always a BLAST!
