Halloween

Halloween night was super fun! The kids just love getting together with their cousins to show off their costumes, to eat candy and to just be plain silly! Sometimes the adults are caught having more fun then the kids. Thank you Uncle Tim and Aunt Casey for inviting us to join you around your neighborhood...living in the country does have it's disadvantages.

Landon-an airman Hailey- a Lifesaver Keagan- Luke Skywalker Kelden- a bear cub

Bethany- a purple butterfly Claire- Tinkerbell

Can't remember the last time Brian was home on Halloween night. He got to experience first hand the time it takes to get everyone in costume and make-up & hair done without a single meltdown. A fun family evening.

Even Buddie had a costume.

A delicious pumpkin dinner. Kelden enjoyed eating the stem.

Grandpa Loren & Uncle Cody came by for pizza and to deliver some special treats.

Claire you make a beautiful Tinkerbell.

You can see the excitement!

Thank you Grandma & Grandpa Kizer for the special treats.

One tired bear cub.

"Here Landon let me take all that big stuff out"-Tim "But why."-Landon

Tim was trying to make Landon's bucket lighter, but Brian could not help but laugh.

The best of friends.

Fall Soccer

Brian was able to coach Hailey & Keagan's soccer team. This was the last year that Hailey & Keagan would play on the same team. It was bittersweet. Keagan enjoyed playing forward & Goalie. Hailey enjoyed playing forward & half-back.

2nd time to Bishops Pumpkin Farm

A chilly afternoon at Bishops Pumpkin Farm.

What a wonderful, caring & nurturing big brother.

The two flowers of my life!

Brian was not a whole lot older than Kelden when he first had a photo next to this very same pumpkin. Hailey insisted that they take a group photo. So cute!

Rain or shine...we are going to have a great time!

Kelden's 1st hay ride.

Kelden's 1st pumpkin.

The perfect pumpkin.

The pumpkins were so mushy, Keagan was the only one to pick one from the field.

Year after year, pumpkin after pumpkin...Beth still likes the ornamental pumpkins the best. Silly girl.

Operating the blue wheelbarrows is still a favorite with Keagan.

Pumpkins with warts...WARTA PUMPKINS!

Hailey is still trying to sweet talk me into letting her get a baby goat. I have to admit they are awful cute.

Eight months old already?

Daddy says that I am getting to be a big boy. I can do so many new things like sitting up, rolling the ball, pulling hair, sleeping through the night and feeding myself. You better watch out though cause I can blow my food at you like a blow fish and I can grawl like a real bear cub, too.

I sure can put on the charm.

I'm looking a lot like my papa bear.

I have been real busy in the teething department. I have 8 teeth now.

Dad lets me gnaw on sticks, but mom lets me go nude in the front yard!

When you're #4 pink is just a color.

I love to jump like a monkey.

"Hey, dad! I was thinking...mom would like to have this kitchen right here."

O.K. now what? This is SO frustrating.
I'm moving but somehow I'm not getting anywhere.
I know you want to kiss me!
Goo sh, this is Sooo embarrassing.
