Happy Birthday Tavin

Here is the cake I made for his birthday!

Happy Birthday AUBREY!

Here is a picture of Aubrey around her 1st birthday:

(look at those cheeks)

Here is Aubrey now:


I cannot believe our baby is now 7. It has gone by so fast! Aubrey is such a kind, outgoing, and smart girl. She is a great helper and a really good big sister (she loves her siblings). We are so proud of her and glad she is part of our family. Happy Birthday (now stop getting older!).

Halloween celebrations

Halloween always comes and goes so quickly. This year was no exception with all of the parties and candy involved. This year Aubrey was a nice Witch (she insisted she was a nice Witch), Isaac was Batman, Madelyn was a cute Bumble Bee, and Tavin was a handsome Rooster. Aubrey and Isaac both had parties in their classes. I was in charge of Aubrey's party so Nick had to go watch Isaac in his parade (those pictures will be posted as soon as I figure out how to get them off of our old camera). After the parties Isaac, Maddie, Tavin, and I went back to Aubrey's school to watch the parade. This was fun and actually kept the children entertained. Isaac especially liked the two boys dressed up as Hulk! We then went home and I made Mummy Pizzas for dinner (Nick said they looked like dead fish) and then around 6:00pm we went trick or treating. The kids got sooo much candy. After going around our neighborhood we went to Grandpa and Grandma Moss' house to do more trick or treating. It was such a fun night and Halloween has to be my favorite holiday.

Fall Fun

With the nice weather lately we have been able to play outside more than usual. Here are some pictures of the fun we have been having.

Twister and babies!

The kids were finally introduced to the game Twister. They now cannot get enough. The last two Sundays they have played it at their Grandma and Grandpa Moss' house. It is hilarious watching Nick, Kellie, and the kids play. They always end up getting really silly!

Madelyn LOVES her new cousins. She loves to hold them and help take care of them. Whenever they are around she is always close by. Aubrey and Isaac love the twins too, but they aren't as obsessed with them as Madelyn is :)

31st Birthday Celebrations

We had lots of fun celebrating Nick's birthday. The kids and I decorated his car, made him an apple pie, made him tacos with homemade shells, and also made him raspberry bars. Thats alot of candles to blow out :)

Pumpkins

I have been excitedly waiting for Halloween this year because we were able to get six pumpkins from our garden. The kids had fun a few Sundays ago picking them.
They even made a pumpkin snowman out of them. It was nice not having to go buy pumpkins and fun spending time picking them as a family. Now we will see if we get around to carving them.
