Will is Student of the Week

Will is the feature student this week at school. He had to fill out this poster and then gets to bring a show and tell on Wednesday. He had a great time coloring his poster. FYI - if you click on the picture, it will get bigger so you can see what he wrote!!


Will's Halloween Party

We went to a Halloween party at Will's school on Sunday. This was the first time they got candy from trick or treating since we were sick last year. They were so excited!!

Will I ever get a picture of them both looking at the camera??


This is the first time they were in a bounce house - you can see that it was torture for them!!


Pumpkins

We carved our pumpkins - I think Josh enjoyed this most. The boys did not want to get any pumpkin filling on them. Therefore, they wouldn't stick their hands inside it or scrape it out. When it came to carving, Will told me what shapes to carve and I made them (note the "W's" for eyes). He did enjoy that though. They loved putting the candles in them and turning off all the lights!




More Pictures from our Week

My mom came and helped out with the kids on Wednesday night. When they stay at her house, they have "toast on the steps" but since we don't have steps, they just sat on the floor!

Everyone in the pj's after a long, fun day!!


This is the best picture of the 4 of them!



Andrew and Adrienne loved the swings at the park!



Zoo Boo

Nicole came down to bring the girls to stay for a little under a week while they went on vacation. We had a great time - it was very busy but the kids got along great!! We took the kids to the zoo before she left for their "Zoo Boo." As you can see, they all wore their Halloween costumes.


Will and Andrew are cowboys. Leslie is Ariel and Adrienne is an angel.

We went to see an elephant get a bath. Afterwards, you got to go up and touch it.

Fall Festival

On Saturday, we went to a festival with some friends at a nearby hospital. They had a lot of things to do. They had pumpkins, food, characters, and many other things.




Andrew was picking out a pumpkin with Josh


Will picked his own pumpkin this year.


Will won this mask playing a game - he wore it most of the day!


Will met Mickey Mouse and then informed me that he was ready for Disney World. Andrew wouldn't go near any of the characters so... I guess it will be a couple more years for Disney World!

Mowing the Grass

Josh just loves having helpers when he has to mow.... too bad they don't really cut!!

Visit From Aunt Christy


Stretch Andrew.....


Yum... good apple!!!


Will wanted Aunt Christy to go on this slide with him - it was fast!!

My sister, Christy, came to visit from Ohio this past week. The boys were so excited to see her. They had a great time playing together. One day, we visited the apple orchard and had a picnic. Thankfully she was at the park with us.... Andrew fell and his mouth was bleeding a lot. If I had been by myself, he would have gone to the doctor but Christy assured me that he was ok even though his gum was cut and bruised. Thank goodness for Doctor Christy!!
