Jackson's Orchard

The boys love going to Jackson's Orchard to get a pumpkin every fall. I love going to get a carmel apple with nuts. YUMMY!! The boys had a great time. They both love playing around on all the hay. Keaton tried picking up lots of pumpkins before finding just the right one. He got a small one and Connor selected a large one. We haven't carved them yet but Keaton has tried with a butter knife more than once. We drew a jack-o-latern face on Keaton's and he packed it around with him yesterday afternoon. He is so excited about Halloween. He has talked about monsters and vampires a bunch lately. Wonder what he'll be for Halloween! Happy Fall!

Fall Break

Tony & I took the kids to Chattanooga on Fall Break. We saw Rock City, went to Ruby Falls and the Aquarium. The weather was great and the kids had a really good time. Here are the kids under the mushroom rock and me and the kids during a rest break.

More Fall Break Action

Although we didn't go off on vacation during Fall Break, we did have some fun. I took the boys over to my friend's house to swim. The water was great! (They had the heater on.) They had a great time.

Ceceley's New Smile

Well it is Ceceley's turn to have braces. It seems everyone else in the family has already had their turn. Maybe after a few days we'll be able to understand what she says when she talks.

Fall Break Fun!!

Fall is in the air, or at least it is beginning to look a little more likefall. Angie and the kids started their fall break early this week. The boys and I just started our break today. None of us had anything exciting planned. I thought I'd take advantage of the beautiful weather and the pretty colors and get a few pictures of the kids. Of course Codie was done before we even got started. Connor always wants to make a silly picture and Keaton may or may not look at the camera. Overall, I think the few I was able to get aren't half bad.

Flag Football Saturday!!

Connor has been waiting all year for Flag Football. He started talking about playing back before baseball sign-ups. Today was his first game. It was a great success, 30-6!! Connor played quarter back and wide receiver (I think). He caught the ball and ran for a touch down. HE MADE IT!! I'll try to get some better action shots next time. This was the best one I got today and he was running over for a drink. Connor wanted to make sure I let everyone know that he also pulled two flags today. He says that was good defense. Connor plays every Saturday in October and November. Most games are around 10:00 or 11:00. Let us know if you're in town and can make it to one. GO CAVALIERS!!
