OCTOBER!

Such a random sampling of pictures I took during the month of October, but they all make me smile and here is why:

Breast cancer awareness month. The cheerleaders got pink pom poms, pink socks and pink bows!

For my parents birthdays we gave them tickets to go see Sound of Music at Gammage with Emma. My dad used to take her to shows all the time, but its been several years since they have been together so we thought they were due for a trip. We even had all the kids watch the movie before the show. Emma had a great time!

 We spent several Friday nights going to Perry Football games. Because we are friends with Coach Frank Pezzerello at Hamilton, he got us onto the field for the big Perry vs Hamilton game. The boys loved it and LOVED trying to catch the balls after they kicked it for a field goal. Eli was actually able to catch one after it was tipped off of some kids finger - his face lit up!!

Great season Raiders. They ended up #2!

He put on Jared's glasses and asked me if he was sexy! Heck ya you are Tyler!

Eli's baseball team, Ignite, decided to forgo the baseball practice that night and go to Native New Yorker instead for pizza and wings and to watch game 7 of the Wold Series of Cubs vs Indians. Coach Matt Palmer wanted the boys to be a part of history!

Alyza's little play group after preschool. We love Tilly and Monroe!

Eli had his first 4th grade field trip!


We have two couches and a chair to sit on, but these two insist on sitting together to watch tv. Melt my heart!

Alyza loving on her buddy Tyson at one of Emma's football games!

I told the kids they all had to help paint the gate - ya these are the last two standing. The other two ditched them. My sweet helpers!

These two love making rice krispy treats.

Where might you find me on a weekend night - oh just at Espee watching my boys play baseball! My weekend life is spent at the sports fields. Wouldn't have it any other way - some day I will miss these crazy weekends.

I took Eli out of school to go shopping for clothes for family pictures. He wanted skinny jeans because his older sister told him he would look good in them! Here he is proudly modeling them with his new boots and his little side kick!
