Halloween at School

 The Hunter with Snow White:)
 Such a ladies man!
 It's Princess Barbie!! (or also known as our friend Emma)
 Princess Barbie taking time out of her busy parade to say hi to Macie
 Enjoying all the delicious sugary foods!
Warren's class had a Halloween party and costume parade this past Thursday. He did such a good job in the parade! Then later the parents got to join them for a party where they sang for us (well, more like the teacher sang and they thought about it - see the link below for the video) Warren is on the left side wearing a tan shirt and jean shorts. In the background on the left wall, there are white ghosts on black construction paper. They made these by stepping in white paint - the tops of the ghosts are the heals of their feet and their toes are the bottoms of the ghosts. It may be hard to see but they are absolutely adorable pictures! In the video, all the parents are standing behind the table of food. When the kids were done singing, all the children except Warren ran to their parents - he ran to the food!! I wouldn't expect anything less:)

Happy Halloween!


 Enjoying some candy - yummy!!
 Making our own parade while returning Pawpaw's trailer:)
 Hanging out with our friends and family - Warren was a hunter, Macie was a pink deer (her costume had little hooves on the bottoms of her feet and a white tail on the back), Gavin was a knight, Nolan was a dragon, Sarah was Super Girl, Benjamin was Batman, Avery was a ghost, Emma was Spider Girl and Everett was Elmo!!



 Stretching out her legs after being freed from the costume!

Let the Fun Begin!!







A little history on my relationships with trampolines: The greatest Christmas I remember as a child was when I was in third grade. My parents bought me a trampoline that year. We had it for many, many years. Of course back then, there was no padding or enclosures and yet somehow no one ever got hurt. But when I was in middle school, my older brothers (and if I remember correctly, John as well) threw a party when my parents were out of town and had way to many people on it at one time. The mat completely broke away from all the springs, so needless to say the trampoline was gone. A few years later, when my brothers no longer lived at home, my parents bought me another trampoline. This one actually had padding:) But one Thanksgiving while everyone was visiting, John decided to try a back flip and fell off - my dad promptly said "DONE" and gave the trampoline away.
So in my mind, John has owed me a trampoline for quite some time:) And he paid the debt today! We are now the proud owners of a trampoline!! It did come with padding and we will be buying the enclosure shortly. I can't wait till summer next year when we can get the water sprinkler underneath it and coat the top with dish soap.......seriously, how did none of us get hurt as children???:)

Bath Time!




Macie is now out of her baby bath tub and into the big tub!

Pnut and his Pawpaw


So currently in Warren's world, mom and dad are out and Pawpaw is in! Warren spent Thursday and Friday afternoon helping Pawpaw split wood - which consists of Pawpaw behind the tractor doing all the work and Warren sitting on the tractor (pretend) driving and giving orders:) This morning I went over to borrow a trailer and Warren would not ride back in the car with me. So my dad drove him over to the house in the golf cart. Once he got home, he refused to get out of the golf cart. I was ready to put my foot down, but Pawpaw saved Warren and took him back to split some more wood.
It's hard to see in the picture, but Warren's shirt says "Will trade sister for tractor"! How very true!! (thanks for the shirt Aunt Brenda, you know him well:)

Opps!!

Lesson learned - Warren can not be left alone with a container of sour cream!

Monkey Man


While some parents have to worry about their little ones climbing out of their crib, I have the opposite problem - Warren climbed into Macie's crib today:) He then proceeded to jump around like a wild man. Luckily Macie wasn't in there at the time!

Pumpkin Patch
















We went to the Pumpkin Patch in Alachua this past Wednesday night. Aunt Wrenda (or Aunt WooWoo, as Warren calls her:), once again took so many great pictures! Miss Macie is definitely starting to get a little personality in front of the camera:)

Pumpkin Patch at School






Warren's class went to the pumpkin patch at their school today and parents got to tag along too! They had hay rides, a bounce house and lots of pumpkins! Warren liked the bounce house but was more excited about the tractor on the hay ride (shocking, I know:)
