Spring Time

We spent a lot of time exploring the woods behind our house last weekend. We crossed the creek and explored for a long time finding all kinds of interesting objects. A bat, bucket and even a porta-potty. Camden used it and said it was almost full. I took his word for it.

Mr. Star, Our Elf on the Shelf

Mr. Star has joined us yet again this Christmas season. This year he's being a little ornery.

Halloween 2011

Kai was excited to help Dad carve his pumpkin. He won a free, 85 lbs. pumpkin at the pumpkin patch this year.

Scary....

Trick-or-treat TIME!

Camden decided to be a Clone Trooper for the second year in a row. Bonus, I only had to buy one new costume. Kai loved his army costume he got for his birthday.

Fall Take Two

Candy corn cookies. Yummmm....

Smore's in a jar. These made nice gifts.

Fall Baking

I decided to try a cute recipe I found on Pinterest. It was very simple and Kai loved helping make our colorful cupcakes. Kai was in charge of mixing the batter and food coloring in ziploc bags.

He chose the colors for our cupcakes. Next I cut small holes in the bags and squeezed them into the muffin tins. So simple.

Yummm...

Flag Football

It's flag football time again. Kai decided that since he was old enough, he wanted to play football this year. He claims he likes to play, but sits out every chance he gets.

Camden is, as always, the aggressive one. He loves flag football and will probably love tackle in a few years. He's very quick and scores at least one touch down per game. The other teams are all onto the secret weapon.

Riviera Maya

Pat and Christa were married in Cancun August 9, 2011. We were honored to be their guests.

Looks like Pat's going over some serious stuff with Blaine and Shawn before the ceremony begins.

Moss, Neffs & Dochertys

Showing off their buff, or lack of, bodies...
