Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
The kids had the day off of school yesterday and we finally made our way out to see Mrs. Susan in her new lake front home! We were so happy to give her a big hug and cast some minnows into the lake to see what we could catch!
Spencer was the big winner of the day with the only fish we caught!
But, we all got to go on a boat ride and spend the day with one of our favorite people. I’d say we were all winners yesterday!!
Can’t wait to try for the “big one” again soon!
Since the spring baseball season got cut short, Spencer sure was excited to play fall ball! He was on a fun team with a great coach. He played pitcher most of the time and was usually second batter. He had some great hits, some fantastic stops, and a good season all around!
Ready for spring ball! Love this ball player and go Yankees!
Spencer also played flag football this fall and loved it – no surprise there!
Hooray for fall sports!
At 4:00 we had the driveway all set up and ready for the neighborhood to kick things off!
We had all our neighborhood friends plus a few extra!
Maxwell’s friends Frank and Jack joined as well…
because they then ditched us all to head to another neighborhood with al lot of the 4th grade boys. Growing up too fast!!
We all headed out to trick-or-treat around 5:00 which was so nice because we were able to hit up almost our entire big loop before it got dark!
We loved seeing friends while out and about!
We were back home by 6:45 for candy sorting and chili! Can’t beat that!!
Can you believe all this candy and only one tiny Butterfinger?! A travesty.
Overall it was a fantastic Halloween…maybe even the best yet! The perfect weather didn’t hurt either. Cheers to a fun night!!
After a full day of fun for all the kids, it was finally time for Halloween night! The big neighborhood party this was cancelled this year so we invited just our neighbors over before trick-or-treating. We had some food for the kids so it was a good way for everyone to meet up and head out together. My crew was looking ready for the best Halloween ever!
The spookiest glow in the dark skeleton…
The coolest hippie…
and the cutest light up purple fairy!!
I mean…so good!
I even threw together a little cheetah costume myself!
One more for today just because they’re so cute!
More of our fun Halloween tomorrow!
HallowEEK at school culminated with the kids getting to wear their costumes on Friday. My hippie, skeleton, and purple fairy were excited for a fun day!
Samantha also got to wear her costume to dance on Thursday. My pretty purple fairy!
On the morning of Halloween we were up and at em for an 8:15am Sparkle Unicorn Blueberry soccer game and then both Samantha and Spencer got to go to Halloween parties that day.
Samantha also had a birthday party that afternoon – all before trick or treating! A busy and super fun weekend!
