apple picking

Today our church went apple picking. An orchard nearby donates apples to the food bank. Local churches and organizations go and pick the apples to be donated. Today was our day. Jace has been asking about picking apples again since he did it last year. He was pumped to go today. While it was the end of the picking season and not many apples remained but a few on the top of the trees, we still managed to fill up a massive crate with apples. And the boys had a blast. I say the mission was accomplished!

KC visit

Over Labor Day weekend we got to go to Kansas City. We began our weekend by hanging out with some of my high school friends. Here is a shot of all our kiddos. We enjoyed catching up on our lives and the kids had a blast playing with each other.
The following day we went to Great Wolf Lodge. Jace and Hayden were so excited to go. That didn't last long for Hayden. He got squirted in the face with water after about 1 minute of entering the water park and that ended his fun for the day. On the second day however, he warmed up and was going down the little slides by himself. Jace had a blast the whole time. It wasn't very crowded so Jace and I or Jace and Clint spent much of the time going down the big slides. Brynley didn't get in the water much since it wasn't all that warm.




We ended our trip with a Royals game. My friends and their families joined us which made it more fun for the kids. The weather was awesome and the Royals won. All in all it was a fabulous trip!

3 month pictures

Not much to say in this post. Just wanted to post pictures of the pictures we got done last week of Brynley. They were done at the Picture People again.

Messy Night

Monday night our Parents as Teachers organization held a Messy Night. Here are a few pics highlighting the kids evening.
Blowing bubbles is always a favorite for Hayden

They had squirt bottles with colored water and a white sheet to squirt

Glue with odds and ends to put on paper. The boys could have spent hours just at this station

This was Jace pouting at first because he wasn't getting to choose what we did. He got over it though and joined in.
Play dough and a hammer, what more does a boy need?
Once again glue and odds and ends
Clint and the boys doing some painting with golf balls While Brynley didn't get to participate, I had to include a picture of her in cute fall attire. We have had such cool weather I have had to break out some warmer gear.
