Halloweenie 2010

Vampire bat (but without her teeth)

Favorite game at the Trunk-or-Treat... the fish pond
Thanks Roatch Family for entertaining my daughter all night :)

Ry was mad that some kid was calling him Mickey Mouse

Casting a spell

Yes, he is a wizard in a Snuggie :)

What a handsome boy... love that smile

The Doctor (actually the Eleventh Doctor from Doctor Who, a British sci-fi show)

Using the Sonic Screwdriver

Sooooooo grown up... makes me a little sad

In case you don't know who the Doctor is

Random October Stuff

We got to have Grama Lolly visit us for a couple of weeks... oh how I wish I had my mom around more often.  Amelia especially likes to have Grama here to talk to and go for walks and play games with her.

On another note, sometimes my kids are just weirdos...

My mommy

What a little mischief monkey... I can see it in his eyes

Rylan hiding from the camera while doing his homework

Wide eyed and bushy tailed (as Gramps would say)

I love when they are laughing together...

So much better than fighting (which is what they are usually doing)

Amelia's Birthday

My baby girl turned 5 a few weeks back... I can't believe how fast she is growing up!

We had a birthday party for her at the park.  We invited friends and family and we played games and had cake and opened presents.  It was fun that Uncle Jeff and Aunt Erin and Grama Lolly were in town to help us celebrate.  Tia Lisa brought her a "fiesta hat" and a piñata for the kids.  We had lots of fun!

Being silly

Robby looks like he is having so much fun

Frosting is yummy

Cubs and Hail

Rylan got his Wolf rank advancement in Cub Scouts.  We are so proud.  He really likes going to Cub Scouts and has lots of fun with the other boys.

Pinning mom

The blood sucking helicopter cheer

About a month ago, the Phoenix area got a crazy hail storm.  If you live here, you already know that.  :)  I don't think I have seen anything like it since I have lived here for the last 21 years.

Amelia was hiding inside.  It was loud and she was scared.
