Spirit Week Fall 2009

Last week was spirit week. The boys were very happy because they could wear regular clothes.

Monday was twin day. Caleb was twins with Broedy, Seth, and Zack. They all play baseball together so they wore their baseball shirts.

Lance was twins with Mike from his football team.

Tuesday was favorite color day.

Wednesday was crazy hair day. Lance's hair was to long to be crazy how he wanted.

Thursday was jersey day. They all loved this day.

It was a fun week but a little different having them wear different cloths.

Halloween Fun

This year we had many Halloween activities that we attended. By the time Halloween was hear I was definitely ready to be done with dressing up and candy.

We started out with a party for preschoolers that a friends from church hosted. It was a lot of fun and the girls loved dressing up.

Jenna enjoyed playing with Cami and Kirsten

The had a candy hunt.

The next activity was another Halloween party from a group of moms in the community. It was at a park and the girls love playing and eating.

Jenna was Belle this year

Briauna was Minnie Mouse.

Briauna loves the dress up shoes even as Minnie Mouse.

A church in our community that some friends of our attend hosted a harvest festival at the park in out neighborhood. It was so crowded but the kids had fun playing all of the games.

After the harvest festival we went to our neighbors house and carved pumpkins.

John was not having tons of fun carving the cat that Jenna chose to be on her pumpkin.

Lance carved his pumpkin all by himself. I was a little worried about how her has cutting with the knife but no injuries occurred.

Halloween day was very busy but we were home in time to trick or treat. I took the girls and Lance and Caleb went with friends. Garrett and his friends Christian handed out candy and loved it.

Briauna wasn't sure at first but quickly found out how fun it was to get candy.

This is Mrs Marilyn from the preschool where Jenna goes. She was so fun to visit. She was the queen of the classroom and asked kids questions before they got their candy.

The group of boys that love to hang out all the time. Halloween would not of been the same if they didn't get to trick or treat together.

Preschool Pumpkin Patch

Tonight Jenna's preschool had a family activity. It was a pumpkin patch where they all got to pick a pumpkin and carve it with their family. We first weighed it and then measured it. Of course the best part is cleaning it out and carving. We all had a lot of fun with the different activities there were to do.

A New Do

Briuana's hair is always in her eyes and she is not a fan of hair clips to keep her hair out her eyes. So I get to look at her with her hair in her eyes all the time. So I finally had had it. I cut her some bangs. They didn't completely solve the problem but it is better. And she looks so cute with her new do.

Fun with Grandma

Jenna got to go with grandma to get a pedicure nad manicure. Jenna was so good grandma let her get her nails done as well. They went to lunch after to Taco Bell. Jenna loved it and was so excited to show off the nails.

The Wildlife World Zoo and Aquarium

Today my mom wanted to take the kids and I to the Wildlife World Zoo and Aquarium. I had never been there before and thought they would enjoy it. Briauna was so excited and loved all the animals.

First we headed to the Aquarium. They all really like it. Braiuna was so funny. Se was beyond excited.

Garrett loved the Stingrays. He saw them at the Phoenix Zoo last year and was so excited to pet them again. Caleb and Jenna both didn't want anything to do with petting them. Lance got brave and really likes them.

After the aquarium we headed toward the monkeys

The kids enjoyed feeding the ducks and geese.

Next we got to see the tigers. They were so close it was a little creepy but very neat.

The Rhino was also very close. I was afraid he could leave his area if he wanted.

Lance and Briauna were imitating the camel as he was eating hay.

I think the giraffe was the favorite probably because the got to pet and feed him. They were a little amazed by the tongue.

At the end we headed over to the petting and playground to sit and relax before going home.

It was a great day and we all really enjoyed it.
