Fall Picnic

Jeremy and I decided to take the day off and take the kids to the mountains on a picnic. We thought Doo may enjoy a day off, but they really wanted her to go with us. So being the nice(crazy) Doo she is, she came along.
What can you do on a picnic?

On Halloween Eve, Megan and I took the kids and Bailey Grace to the Fall Festival with Ellie. The kids had a lot of fun!

I wonder why Ellie is holding her nose???


Bailey Grace styling on her pony



This was quite an experience!!! Well, Rylee Kate after being told several times she was too little for this slide insisted on doing it. She got to the top with no problem and was too scared to come down. I could just see me taking my shoes off and hiking it to the top to get her down. However, Bailey Grace was there to save the day. I must admit Rylee did not go down without a fight but Bailey finally caught her and took off down the slide with her. Not to mention we waited in line to do it again, because Ry loved it so much!!!


FUN TIMES!


Halloween Breakfast (jack-o-lantern muffins)


Halloween Night! It finally came and went so quickly. It was a rainy night and we did very little trick or treating. We had a wonderful night with family and friends passing out candy, trick or treating, talking, laughing, eating and watching Tennessee Football!!! We can't wait to see everyone next year!
All the cousins before trick or treating

Shawna got to experience trick or treating with the Lorenz's this year. We really enjoyed having her come along and taking Rylee back early (Rylee was over it). Thanks Shawna!

Carving a Jack O lantern

We decided that since it was such a rainy, yucky night that we would carve our jack o lanterns. So that is just what we did. As you can tell we had a fun time, except the kids didn't like cleaning the guts out of the pumpkins so Mommy did.

Cleaning out the pumpkin

Rylee enjoyed cleaning it out with a spoon

Finally... Disney World 2009


This past Fall Break we travelled to Disney World. However, Jeremy and I were smarter this year. We took along a few extra hands. Doo and Grammy both joined us for a week of fun. We really had a BLAST! I could not decide on a few favorite pictures so here is many of my favorites.


Doo, Grammy and the kids fixing to ride Toy Story.

Hallelujah Party 2009

Tonight was our annual Hallelujah party at church. Tucker is wearing his costume from last year that he wouldn't wear. This is still not the one we bought for this year. He made a promise that he would wear his new one at the school Halloween Parade Friday. Stay Tuned...
