Random Pictures from September thru October



This was our Pumpkin Patch field trip with our homeschooling group. We went with our friends, Robin and her children, Aaron, Zack and Leigha. They also go to our church and our kids use to go to Christian School together. They are great friends. They are now homeschooling this year as well. Yeah!!




Lauren & Leigha.



Zack & Caleb.



I also got to spend some great time visiting with an old neighbor and friend Crystal, who came to visit us for the week. The kids adored her and were so sad to see her leave and so was I.



Josh & Aaron in the patch trying to pick the coolest pumpkin!



Here were our selections. Lauren really didn't care for walking through the patch. She kept crying because her sandals were falling off and the growing weeds were causing her to fall as well. She is such a girl!!



A random picture of Lauren with Toby. Her baby and playmate while Mommy is homeschooling.



Another random picture of Josh and his select soccer team called "Virginia Rush" making a funny poise for the camera.




This was our first field trip in the beginning of September with our homeschool group. By mistake because a fire alarm was pulled (not by mine, thankfully), we ended up being able to have a tour of a new fire truck. It was really cool and the kids loved it.






September has come and gone...



Lauren loves to be mother "hen". She loved mothering Abby!! Forgive me, it's been a long time since I've blogged. It's so hard keeping up with posts let alone my scrapbooking, facebook and so on... Yes, I am addicted to facebook, I love keeping up with friends and family. But I know how important it is to blog to keep up with my family's happenings. It is now the middle of October and September has come and gone. I always say how crazy it is that time flies, it seems to fly faster each day!! Sarah and her three kids came down to visit with us in the beginning of September and to see my Dad's team play their championship game. It was a fun visit and always hard to say goodbye!!



Josh holding Abby, (he has a thing for his cousin)!! He is always commenting on how "cute" she is, and so tiny! And notice how Lauren has to be sitting next to Will as well.








My beautiful sister and her newest little one Nate!




Love this picture!! They are climbing in, under and through this cool maze at Fort Fun park.




Of course, even though Caleb is getting older he loves playing with the little ones. He is so entertaining and good with them as is Josh!!




I loved this wrap-thing my sister was sporting Nate in, how things change in just a few years. They always come out with these great ideas after I have children!




Lauren loved that she could jump up and hang from the rings there.




Will and Lauren having a blast. They did this forever!!



Sweet cousins!!










This was taken on Sunday after a long service thanks to Shaun, just kidding!! My Dad was exhausted from his whirlwind weekend and the season winding down. It didn't help that his team lost but still played so well!! Poppy was reading to Lauren and fell asleep or she was reading to him, I'm not sure. Thought this was too cute. Got to love Poppy spending time with his grandkids even while he is sleeping!!
