Past two weeks

The past couple of weeks have been very eventful with Halloween and school. Brigden, Landen and I had the oppurtunity to go to the Pumpkin Patch for his first preschool field trip. Then his preschool had a carnival. I took Jayden out of school early to be with us for that one. Dad had a hunting trip during Halloween this year so mom got to carve pumpkins with the kids all by herself. But we did it and had a great time and also had a BLAST at Halloween together. Jayden was a wolf ninja, Brigden was a power ranger and Landen was incredible hulk. No that band-aid is not part of his costume. He really got hurt.Last night was Jaydens last night for fall ball. He ended the year with a .913 batting average, five doubles, and one triple. Pretty good for 7! We are so proud of him. He also got the first ever penmenship award for first grade last week. He recieved an award and a gift gad for $10.Pretty good for a BOY!

It's a.......

GIRL

Finally we are getting our GIRL. We are so excited! We were not going to find out; but with me being in the profession that I was in for so many years I knew what every little part of the body was in the ultrasound. There was nothing between the legs!! YAH! She will be very spoiled from us and from my parents since she is the first grandaughter on my side! Everything else looked GREAT! She will make her debut in February. FINALLLY!

Brigden bites the dust AGAIN

Well we decided to go costume shopping at Party City yesterday and this is what happens. Brigden had just got done trying on his costume and he triped and fell flat on his chin. So we ended up at Uncle Gary's office for two hours getting stitched and glued. Yes, both because it was so deep and wide. What is next for this poor boy? I hope nothing. This is his fourth set of stitches.

Fall League 2009

Jayden started another baseball season this month and plays until the end of November. We have decided to put him in a fall league in Gilbert since he loves the sport so much and since mesa doesn't offer one. He has done really well so far two doubles, one triple, and has even got his first double play. The coach promised the first player to get this he was going to treat to an ice cream. GOOD JOB JAYDEN we knew you could do it! What can we say this boy is a natural. His shirt says it all #1!

Brigdens 1st Day of Preschool

Well Brigden started school this Monday. He goes to school three days a week this year, so I only have one child for this time! He is at Ms. Rebeccahs school again for the last year and then goes all day next year. He has 13 boys in his class so he loves it but poor teacher! Good Luck this year Brigden we LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

Jaydens 1st Day of School

Well today was Jaydens first day of 1st grade. He woke up bright and early and ready to go. Sometimes I think that summer is to long! Grammie surprised us all and showed up to take Jayden to his first day of school with Mike and I. Thanks for your support Grammie! He loves his new teacher. He is getting used to not having snack time and so many recesses like in Kindergarden! He did complain of having so many kids in his class. He went from having 18 in his class last year to 30 this year. I guess from all of those dang budget cuts! We love you Jayden and hope that you have an awesome school year! Mommy will miss her little helper!

Beehive Camp Out

Well Mike and I and another leader and her husband and two other men went on a camp out with our beehives for the weekend. We had such a blast! Our beehives always complain that they don't get to go on hikes like the boys so we took them. They also couldn't pass their camp fire certification at camp so we help them with this also. Saturday we went on an awesome hike that was literally straight up! We got to see these indian ruins when we got to the top. We also had fun playing in the creek which had a cool waterfall at the end. We finished the day by driving to the very top of the mountain and eating lunch up there. It was a great weekend. I love my girls so much! My husband too for putting up with us for the weekend!
