This is Nathan's new best friend. Bradley is the class bear that get's to take a turn going to everyone's house. What great teachers Nate has. He has loved taking care of this bear.

Happy Halloween!

This year all of my kids were very excited about Halloween. Rylee wanted to be an angel, Nate was an excellent pirate. I actually wanted Carson to be a chicken like Nate and Rylee were when they were 2. But Carson would have nothing to do with the chicken suit, he wanted to be a football man.
We started off the night with a neighborhood pizza party and then went trick-or-treating from there. The kids actually were done in about an hour, I think all the days festivities wore them out. They sure weren't to tired to rip open the candy bags as soon as we got home.

My front tooth is missing

Rylee was very funny about having a loose tooth, she really didn't want to talk about it let alone show me. One morning while she was getting ready for school she brushed her teeth, and her loose tooth fell right out. She was SO excited. While she was at school the kids told her that the tooth fairy wasn't real.
She came home and asked my friend about it and my friend told her that the tooth fairy is only real if you believe in it. So, after she woke up in the morning and found her money, she said that she just knew the tooth fairy was real.

Welcome Aunt Ashley!!!

We are so excited to have Ashley come for a visit. We had so much fun with her. First, we took her for a train ride uptown to visit the city. Then,we took her to The Biltmore, the largest home in the United States which is in Ashville. We also got to go to Charleston, SC. for being at the beach in October was pretty darn great! I can't believe that Rich and Rylee played in the water, the rest of us weren't too brave, we just enjoyed the sand.

Pretty Pumkins

Aunt Ashley got to share in our joy of carving pumkins. The kids were very into doing it themselves this year. They turned out lovely don't you think?
