Cessna flight







Tim and I won a Cessna Airplane ride from a town raffle. We decided to take the ride in September. Tim didn't say much, and I had a queasy moment or two, but I got to fly the plane!! I knew if I didn't take the wheel and actually fly it I would regret it. We had a blast and were so glad when we finally touched down!

Water water everywhere!




Leah loves to play in the water! If I am not paying attention, this is where I will find her. Look how happy she is!


Thanksgiving parade















Kait and Kyle came over to spend the day right before Thanksgiving so we made Thanksgiving signs on sticks. We then took a walk around the block saying Happy Thanksgiving to anyone who would listen! It was fun, corny but fun!

Gamers and friends




Eddie and Kyle slept in the family room so they could play Playstation until they fell asleep and then as soon as they woke up again! They sure have a good time together! They even dress alike!

New cousins

Leah gets to hold her newest cousin NaVaeh (heaven backwards) for the first time. Tracy is looking quite relaxed for just having a second baby!






Just hangin' around







They love to play on this swingset that was given to us by one of our wonderful neighbors!

Halloween with the gang






Eddie, Leah, DeSean, Rylee and Cori went trick or treating in the neighboorhood. Lots of candy was collected by all!

I think they forgot how to swing!


They seem to have fallen head first out of the swings! I sure hope they can hang on!

Best Friends Forever















Leah's BFF Emily came over to play, and boy did they play!

Build a Bear











Leah and Eddie built their first Build a Bear when Leah's BFF Emily turned 3!




Dress up time











Eddie and Leah love to dress up in the clothes. Leah is willing to share the costumes as long as Eddie shares his cars. And who is to say witches don't use light sabers!








Cori going to tea time





Cori was invited to a birthday party at a tea house. Something I would love! They all came dressed in their sunday best and drank tea. Aunt Mary had just found this beautiful dress and jacket and Cori could not wait to wear it.

How many can we fit on the slide?






All the kids get on the slide, 1/2 make a tunnel and the other 1/2 slide down it. How many are left standing when they all get to the bottom?

She's all girl



For Leah it's all about playing. From being a mommy to sliding down the slide. She's our little tom boy!












Boys will be boys











The boys play together all the time. They have been known to climb into the tower on the swingset with action figures not to be seen for HOURS! They eat up there and if given the chance would sleep up there! When it is cold outside it's all about Playstation.
