The boys have been having fun with Grandpa Russ and Grandma Gini being here. Here are some pictures of the fun things they do with Grandpa.

Grandpa Russ brought down his Sea Doo and has been having fun on the lake near our house in the great 80 degree November weather! Here, Kaden is checking out the ducks.

Halloween and fall

Halloween was a short night for us. Kaden and I had been sick all week (Kaden was almost admitted to the hospital on Wednesday morning), therefore we were still not feeling the best and just overall tired and worn out. We did about a block and a half and Kaden said he was tired so Jack took him back home and I did another block with Collin and we were done. Here are a few pics of my cowboy and alien.

Kaden thought it was funny for the cowboy to shoot the alien.
The space alien. And a pic of the tree in the front yard for my mom...she thinks that the leaves don't turn colors here in TX.

The handsome cowboy



Our neighborhood had a harvest festival and the boys enjoyed the bounce houses and huge blow up slides along with pony rides and cotton candy and fire truck tours. Fun times!



We were given Dallas Cowboys tickets from Jacks boss. We went and brought the boys and we all had a great time! Collin likes to color his hair for the games! They even won when we went so that made the day.

Jacks parents arrived last week Monday. Jacks dad had bought Nascar tickets for Sunday for the guys. Jack was also given some from his boss. They decided to call Jacks uncles in Michigan to see if they wanted to do a road trip and come down for the race. They were sick of the cold and drizzle in Mi so they gladly accepted. They got in the car Friday morning and were here by about 11:30 Friday night. So on top of Russ and Gini here, we also got Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Norm, and Aunt Polly and Uncle Harvey!! It was a FULL house for the weekend, but we had alot of fun. Sunday, all the guys went to the race and all the girls (and Kaden), along with Jacks cousin Martha, went to First Monday Trade Days in Canton which is the largest flea/craft market in the US!! We were there for about 5 hours and only got to about 1/3 of the place. The Aunts and Uncles left this morning and a good time was had by all!!
