Halloween should always be on Friday. We had a full night of visiting, partying and trick or treating. We started our adventures with me and my friend Stefanie picking our kids up from school in our costumes. Then we got the kids ready and had a very healthy dinner at Wendy's. Then we were off to our trick or treating adventure. We were running along with 8 kids having fun. Then we realized that we didnt know where we parked. However about the time we found our car the little kids were tired. Then we went to a party at the Chappell familys home. Where the kids played games and ate some more junk food. We ended our night with some visiting at Aunt Sina's and Grandma and Grandpa Davis. Got the kids in bed about 11. So we could wake up at 745 for our full day of 2 soccer games, 1 volleyball game and a volleyball banquet.
Look at that stud. I think Tony liked his tatooes to much.

In case your confused thats Lacey as the nun. Stefanie is a grandma who lost her puppy and Adam is a Pimp.

Found the Dog.

Perfect match.

I am new to the bloody childrens costumes. I wanted to throw up while putting on halles wounds.

We did Spooner farms pumpkin patch for Choe's fieldtrip. It was wet and muddy. So we didnt get any pictures we were busy just keeping kids clean. However we did our pumpkin carving this weekend and the little kids loved cleaning out the pumpkins. Which is such a gift to me.

Baby TJ cant walk but he can climb. Is this what its like to have a boy?

The last three months have been crazy. Have you heard of the over worked children. Well I think our whole family is overworked. Soccer 3 days a week (thats two kids in soccer so thats two games and 4 practices a week.) Volleyball 3 days a week. Piano lessons, activity days, mutual (which is way out of my league at this point, since I have 4 young children and a husband with a new unreliable job schedule) Plus a 4th grader, a kindergardner, a preschooler and a baby( who is very needy) Anyways we have been a little busy and a little crazy. Halle's soccer team is Awesome and Laney is so cute to watch. If your wondering about Halle's headband in her volleyball pic that was all her. I was taking care of my other children and I looked up to see Halle walking away from her pic with her headband done up like she was from the 80's.

This picture is hillarious.

We got these cute pictures of our two little ones done by some friends of ours. Who own an online store called accents of bella. TJ is wearing one of their hats and Chloe is wearing headbands and a tutu.

On the third Sunday of each month our family has been getting together for dinner after church. The group is getting quite large. We had 24 people this last time. Here is a pic of all the grandkids and great grandkid. Oh and TJ and his Cousin Chris.

The kids learned about where milk comes from. Not that they don't get that lesson every hour and a half at home.
Just wanted to add a cute pic of Laney. She was more daring this year.
Here is the TJ and cousin BC picture. I take one every time we see them.

I dont think I am ready for my little 10yr old daughter to be riding the big rides. However she wanted to ride everything. She would probably of rode the bungee thing if she were old enough. (Just like her mother )

We tatooed our children at the fair this year.

Audrey and Clara came over to play. Our girls think that the main attraction at our house is some frogs that live in an old hot tub in our backyard. (Which we have since gotten rid of and the kids are very upset about it)

Our cousin Forrest came over to split some wood with our family. The girls wanted to help so the boys let them try out the log splitter. Laney and Chloe stacked all the wood in Forrest's truck. Chloe was out working in her princess shoes. She is our girly girl.

TJ got his first tooth. It looks as if our cute little baby is growing an adult baby tooth. 7months old.

Laney started kindergarten on Thursday. I left the little kids with Tony all prepared for Laney to cry or refuse to go in, however the only one with a problem was me of course. I didnt cry because I didnt want to upset her but it was a sad sad day for me.
With four children I dont seem to take pics when I should and I forgot to take one of Halle on her first day of 4th grade. However I kinda got her on her 2nd day.
Today Laney asked me if she could walk in to school by herself. I told her maybe on Monday. I'm not ready to let my little Laney walk in the big school all by herself, what if she gets sad? Halle always wanted me to take her to class and after school she wanted me standing outside her classroom. Every day for the whole year.
I got Halle on her 3rd day too. Just trying to make up for the first day.
TJ was laying on the floor playing with Laney's new backpack and I realized that he isn't much bigger than the backpack.
