Halloween

We had a great time trick or treating tonight! Reagan was a pro and lead the pack. We put Tyler in the wagon and it didn't take him long to get the hang of it. I was quite surprised that he kept his turtle hat on the whole night. After trick or treating we headed to the church Harvest Festival and it was a hit. We even got to see a helicopter take off!! Good times.

Tyler

Graham cracker bandit.

Yesterdays disaster.

It has been a long time since my last post. I am working and the kids are keeping me busy. Yesterday Reagan was able to write out her last name with no help. Good thing she has an easy last name. Tyler is tearing the house up. Last week he plucked my apple core out of the trash to eat it and two days ago he grabbed a used tea bag and had ripped it open and was eating the grounds. So far I am missing 2 debit cards, my library card, and my keys. I suspect all ended up in the trash. Yesterday I walked into the disaster seen above. He got into my cabinet with all the paper plates, plastic silverware, and straws. Do not leave children unattended.

Silver Dollar City

Funny Face Time!

The little birds wanted some ice cream.

Lisa and I met up in Branson with our older ones to try out Silver Dollar City. Reagan and Trenton had a blast on all the kiddie rides. Lisa and I even took turns riding the Wildfire rollercoaster. (Moms need to ride too.) It was fun for everyone until about 2:30 when children started breaking down and hiked to the exit.

August is here!!

Hooray! Its been awhile since my last post. We went to Papa John's lake house for a visit and Reagan and Tyler got their first boat ride. Reagan even went tubing. Tyler is almost walking. He moves from thing to thing but won't cut loose yet and go across the room. He inherited the rocking horse from Cousin Trenton and he has figured out how to work it. He got his hair trimmed the other day and he looks like a little boy! FREAKY!

Tyler boating

A scene that is becoming too common.

Note hes standing, not walking.

He emptied the cabinets tonight while I made dinner and when I turned around he had managed to wedge those thighs into the collander.

A Potpourri of Photos

Reagan going off the diving board.

Tyler at the park (he's a little hot)

I am posting a hodge podge of photos this week. Reagan finished up swimming lessons with a bang. She can go off the diving board and although the photo shows someone catching her, she is able to do it alone!! It was a major step this summer. Tyler is growing like a weed as always. Not walking yet but he is starting to stand unassisted for a little bit. He will be taking off in no time.

More Kris Allen and Hayes Music

Ok. . . so I couldn't resist. I added more Kris Allen songs to the blog. I really like the versions from the show instead of the "studio" versions. They should automatically start when you go to my page! Hayes Carll is also making an appearance on the song list!

Webb Family Weekend

Girls being silly with their Go-Gurt.

Last weekend we had the Hot Springs Webbs in Mountain Home. We had lots of good food and fun. The girls had a ball and spent most of the weekend in the basement which they converted into their playhouse. Quite creative I must say.
