Halloween 2012

On Halloween, we took Nate to the local town center to do some trick or treating. If the store had a pumpkin on the door, you could go inside and get candy. Nate loved going in the different stores and if they do it again next year, we will definitely go again.  

At GameStop, he had to try out the video games.

Pictures of Nate's pumpkins.  The one on the left says VBK and the one on the right is a Phinneas and Ferb pumpkin.

 After the Town Center, we headed over to Gramma and Papa's.  Some of our friends were meeting us at there house to go trick or treating in the neighborhood. Nate had a blast hanging out with the big kids.

Pictures with Gramma and Papa!

More pictures of our pumpkins.

 I had gone to school that day dressed up as a farmer. 

 I love the waves that the braids left in my hair.

Sleepover with June

On May 30, June came home with us for a sleepover.  

When I first started keeping them, she had a pretty big fear of dogs.  By this time, however, she was ready to take Annabelle for a walk. 


We headed over to Gramma and Papa's house and went on a long bike ride.

June got to ride on Old Buck.

A little treat after our supper.

Bath Time!

We braided her hair so that it would be wavy in the morning when she woke up.

 She and Annabelle became good friends.

The next morning, they ate breakfast and watched a movie on our way to her house. 

We loved having her come visit.  :)

Summer Camp

Thought I'd share the cell phone pictures I took while we spent a week at summer camp with the teens. 

Tater was showing the teens the proper way to use the broom.


You can't have senior high camp without Mr. Pete's rolls.  Yum, yum!

He loved the pool!

Testing out the water.

Camp naps are the best.

Our new worship leader.

Ayla listening to the morning announcements from Uncle Dave.

You have to be creative to have baths at camp.

Chocolate cake is always yummy.

Reading together.

More pool time

Reading with Daddy/Uncle Dave.

Nana came to visit one day and while she was there, she took the kiddos to get a treat from Sonic.

We had lots of time to hang out before breakfast each morning, so I tried out some fun hairstyles on Ayla.  This was one of my favorites.

Tater loved hanging out with Chris.

Loved spending time with this little girl.

Swimming makes your thirsty.

Strawberry shortcake!

Worship

Early morning hang out time

These two left their mark with chalk.

So sweet!

Tater was loving the drums.

You're my brother, you're my friend!

Love this sweet smile.

Chris let him play a game on his phone. 

I loved watching these two play together.
