SnOw DaY!

It is not even Halloween yet and we have 8-10 inches of snow!
Our pumpkins are COVERED in snow!

Before

After! I felt like such a kid!

Where's Lucy?

Unfortunately, Kyler doesn't have the proper attire for playing in the snow, so he didn't get to play with us. We didn't really prepare to have this much snow this early in the season. But it was the perfect day for him to...
...curl up with a good book!

...and learn to play the guitar - Thanks dad!

What should Kyler be for Halloween?

Thanks to Mariah, I have three choices for Kyler's Halloween costume.

A cow

A dog- I don't think he likes this one.

Or a lion

Please help me decide!

Kyler, how old are you?

A Father's Love

Josh is the greatest dad on this planet! It is so fun and exciting for me to sit back and watch Josh grow into such a loving and caring father. I'm sure it's just a reflection of how his parents were with him. The feelings are definitely recipricated. Kyler is such a daddy's boy. One of his favorite words to say is "Dadddddie!" And I don't think anyone can get him to "gut-giggle" like his daddy can!

Pickin' Pumpkins

Hangin' out with Mommy!

Today Kyler and I headed out to a pumpkin patch so that he could pick out his own little pumpkin. We met our good friends Angy and Lanie there, and we had a BLAST!

Lanie get over here and pose for this picture with me!

At first Kyler thought that the pumpkins were balls and that he should pick them up and throw them. Fortunately he didn't break any open. He LOVED it! He just roamed around as he pleased looking for the perfect pumpkin. We ended up getting two - one for Kyler and one for Mommy. It was a great place to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather and incredible company.

Humm...Which one should I get?

For the LOVE of Leaves!

The other day right after school, Kyler and I came home to daddy doing some of his homework for his master's program. We decided that he needed some peace and quiet, so we went outside to play. Kyler is TOTAL boy - he loves playing outside, throwing rocks, picking the grass, riding his bike, chasing after Lucy, but most of all, playing in the leaves. He thought it was the greatest! I got out the rake and raked leaves up onto him and he would just laugh and laugh! We had a blast! Who needs toys, when you can just go out to the backyard?



We played really hard and worked up a good appetite. Shortly after playing, we headed over to Old Chicago for some dinner. Kyler ate a bunch of Saltine crackers while waiting for our food, about a third of my salad and two whole pieces of pizza! Kyler surely knows how to play hard, eat A LOT and sleep well! I am so thankful!

Go BRONCOS!

Speaking of football, Kyler attended his first Bronco football game today (thanks to Jeff Lawrence for hooking us up with the tickets)! We were a little leary of bringing him, but figured he'd do ok since he has been to a few high school games this season.


He LOVED it! He really got into it - he was flirting with all the pretty ladies, high fiving all of the men and just enjoying it all! The weather was just right and the game was spectacular! It was a great experience for me to have with my two best boys!

Friday Night Lights

Football season is in full swing. Greeley West Football is at its best! We have gone to a couple of games and have been very impressed with what we have seen (not only on the football field, but also with the band and poms at halftime). Kyler was literally drooling over the poms during one of their dances! He is such a great sport! Even though the games last way past his bedtime, he could be seen giving high fives and fists to all the people around him!


Before we know it Kyler will be the one out there on the field! Watch out he's gonna be a bruiser!
