Trick or Treating

As usual we spent Halloween evening Trick-or-Treating with friends here in town. Dale had a tough decision to make that day, but decide to go to the OSU-TX game that evening! We are so blessed to have such great friends, the 5 of us adults loaded up all the kids and off we went!!

The Line-Up!!
Kaylee the Doctor, Braden the OSU Spirit Rider, Kaitlyn the Bee, Baylee the Ladybug, Kyle as Indiana Jones and Wyatt as Elvis!

Her Speech Teacher (yes she really is old enough to be her teacher!!)

Did someone drop something??

Pumpkin' Carvin'

Every year since Dale and I got married, we have carved (or decorated) a pumpkin. The year of Kaylee's first Halloween, we went to the pumpkin patch and took pictures and picked out our family prize pumpkin. We have continued this tradition every year so far. (I have pumpkin patch pics to post later!) As soon as the kids were big enough to sit up Dale has sat them on the table and carved the pumpkin. They each get to pick how they want their eye and then one gets to pick the nose and one picks the mouth. This year I was not sure if I was going to allow them to sit on the new table, but they would not have it any other way!!

This was the ONLY time she stuck her hand in there!

Kaylee's eye was a moon shape (Braden's is a triangle)

The finished product. They don't get too fancy but they sure do have fun!!

All our lil pumpkins!

Lost Tooth!!

Today after school Braden lost a VERY loose tooth!! It has been hanging on for a few days, but today while at a friends house playing it finally came out! We will see what the tooth fairy leaves him tonight!!

Trick or Treating @ School

Every year our school takes the Pre-K-2nd grade trick-or-treating to a few local businesses. Here are a few pics of Braden and some of our friend's children. This year Braden is an OSU Spirit Rider. For those of you who are not OSU fans, every time the team makes a touchdown a Spirit Rider rides the famous Bullet out on the field for a great celebration!

Our Spirit Rider....minus Bullet for the moment!

Kyle as Clint Eastwood

It's Elvis!! (Wyatt)

Kenna the sweet angel

Friday was Spirit Day at school! Also, Kaylee went to the lil Cheerleader Clinic this week and cheered at morning opening Friday and then again at half-time of the Homecoming game.

Braden showing his school spirit.....you can't tell very well in the pic, but he was all decked out w/ red, white and blue hair!

Crazy Sock Day

Today was crazy sock day at school for Homecoming week! Braden really got into "designing" himself some really crazy ones!! Kaylee is like her Momma and she LOVES socks, so she had LOTS to choose from, but opted for the ones that matched a new outfit! Although I did not get any pics of mine, I will have to say they were pretty cute! The Pre-K teacher and I shared 2 pair of knee socks. We each had a black/white zebra and a pink/white zebra one!!

Braden...Flag Football

Braden is playing his 2nd year of Flag Football!! He is having a really good time and says he is so good because he went to football camp this summer!! Here are a few pics from the first 2 games. The lighting was terrible at the second game, but hopefully you can enjoy them anyway.

Our mean player!
