Fun Pix!

Eli is playing with his best buds; Alex and Braden.

Ava loves to sit in Grace's "American Girl" Desk. It often tips over, and she gets soooo mad. But, she just gets in again and again.I caught Ava drinking from her milk bowl like Brian.



Griffin, Parker, and Addie were over for some fun while their daddy worked on our basement.



Eli avoids pictures...but I got one!





My handsome boy!





Grace and her cousin Addie had their faces painted after the "spooky trail". Eli opted not to do it. He was more intrested in watching.



Grace in the height of her glory!




"Ava, Ava, Pigtails"


My dad used to call me "Audi, Audi, Pigtails"


We've passed it on to my cloan!




Giggles at the Pumpkin Patch with Nana and Cousins! Eli stayed home with Daddy.







Ava loves babies. She won't fall asleep without one. I have to sneak in and take it away after she falls asleep!



Off to school! Grace loves her new school.




This was Ava's costume from last year! It barely fits...but is still cute. She sure is a sweet chic.




Ava's second favorite thing are slides (after playing babies of course)























Carvin' Pumpkins

Meet "Hilda the Witch"...no relation to "Joe the Plumber". She is tired of working so hard and not seeing the benefits given to her young family. She is voting for "Hope" and "Change".
Eli loves his #5 Albert Pujols Pumpkin


My cute little pumpkins!




Ava wasn't afraid of the pumpkin "guts".



Grace was afraid of the pumpkin "guts"



Here are their pumpkins (Ava's, Eli's, and Grace's)






Too Cute!!

Fall Fun

We had fun...2 days of fun...at the local Fall Festival Activities. Grace and Eli went with my mom, my niece and nephews, and myself on the first day. We had so much fun our family went back for another day of fun!
Eli was the king of the hay!
Brian enjoyed the slide, too.
Ava loved "Tom" the turkey. She kept bending down and clapping for him to come her way.
Twins!
My three musketeers
Zachary, Bethany, Gracie, Lucas, and Eli (Ava was home asleep with Daddy and Papa)
Grace loves animals. She want to be a vet! This bunny snuggled her like a baby. It was perfect for Ms. Gracie.
Bethany enjoyed having her face painted.
Zachary was thrilled to milk a cow. I know...a little to graphic!
Lucas loved playing with shovels and buckets in the corn.



Gracie and Eli got their exercise climbing the hay to the top of the barn.






Settling In!

Toby and Ava have seemed to enjoy "settling in"! Ava found the snack drawer and Toby has taken over the sunroom! All the kids are really enjoying the new home. The snacks have recently been relocated due to Ava's repeat offenses!
