Halloween Sneak Peek

Jeff has been hard at work making the boys their Halloween Costumes.  Yes, you read that right. Jeff. He has conceptualized and sewed everything so far. I have been the gofer and gotten all the supplies.  Here is a sneak peek:




Stay tuned for the final products! It's going to be pretty "super"!

October thus far...

It's only October 6 and we have been busy everyday.  Wednesday was Charlie's 5th birthday! My how time flies.  He went to school and shared special treats (Rice Krispy Treats) with his friends in his class.  That night, we went bowling and had pizza at Main Event with his/our friends.  Everyone had a great time and he received lots of great presents.


















On Thursday, Charlie has chapel at school and the kids that have birthdays that week get to wear a special birthday crown and go up to the front of the church and everyone sings Happy Birthday to them.

Teddy wanted his picture taken. 

A special blessing from the pastor. 

Harry even joined in prayer.




For Jeff's birthday (which was Thursday, October 2) he wanted to go to Fredericksburg and go to some wineries with a few of his friends.  We drove up Thursday in our brand new 2015 Yukon XL! We just got it on Tuesday and man was it useful to have! We could fit everything we needed and still had room for people if we wanted.  It wasn't our first choice in color, but it had everything else we were looking for so we bought it.  



Friday night we had a nice dinner to celebrate 3 birthdays, Charlie's, Jeff's and Uncle Carl's.






Saturday, Jeff and his friends went to a few wineries and had a great time drinking and visiting with various winemakers in the Texas Hill Country.  I joined them at the last stop where Uncle Carl works and we had a great tasting in the private room. We all left on Sunday to reset and start the work week again.  We had a great time and I know the boys loved their birthday weekend.
