Happy Halloween!!



Our neighborhood had trick-or-treat on Thursday night. The kids dressed up in fun costumes and walked around the neighborhood seeking out candy:) They had a great time with friends that came along with us and we have enough candy to last until next year. We carved pumpkins on Tuesday and lit them up Thursday night to see the kids' creations. This is a tradition that I enjoyed with my parents and it's fun to watch my kids enjoy the fun side of halloween.
As you can see we had 2 fifty's girls and 1 cowboy!!




Natalie also had a Noah's Ark party on Thursday at pre-school. Each student had to dress up as an animal. Natalie was a cat (just like Courtney when she was 3:) She had alot of fun....what a fun way to have a party!

Basketball

The basketball season has come to an end. Courtney enjoyed playing her 2nd year on the c-team. She and her teammates improved tremendously from last year.
  • Some of the highlights from this season included:
  • Getting to wear really cool uniforms
  • Scoring 12 points in one game
  • Having Uncle Noel and Aunt Ashley coming to watch her play
  • Making a free-throw
It was a great season and we can't wait until next year when she will be able to play for the b-team. This will allow her to play in more games (only 6 this year) and be in a tournament.

Happy Birthday Alex!!




Alex turned 6 on Sunday!! We celebrated on Friday night with family.
Alex received a set of left handed golf clubs from us! He was very excited! So on Sunday we took him golfing and had a great time. Unfortunately, I keep forgetting to take my camera places so you will just have to take my word for it, or ask him yourself:) I can't believe that he is in Kindergarten and 6 years old. I know this sounds very cliche, but they DO grow up so fast.
