the mulberry tree

There is a tree at Grandma's house that my kids l.o.v.e to play in.  The mulberry tree is nature's playground.  They can be out there for hours!  Their new game is survival.   It's so intense that they cannot even explain it to me.

I am so glad they can play outside at grandma's together and make memories!

pumpkin carving party

Yesterday we were invited to a pumpkin carving party.  It was a perfect 80 degree day!  The kids did a great job with their pumpkins.  We also got to hang out and have dinner with friends.  It was a great fall day!

friends

This weekend we made our annual Walseth/Beachy trek to Arthur to stay with the grandparents.  We always hit the "Great Pumpkin Patch!"  It has a lot to offer and the kids always have a blast!  Thank you grandma and grandpa for hosting us!

sewing with grandma

Grandma and grandpa are visiting.  Reagan immediately asked grandma if she could help her sew a sock monkey.  That's the good thing about grandmas...  they say YES!

Reagan's friend came over and they both made them.  They had a lot of fun!  Such good memories....

celebrating 11

Today we had a big party for the birthday boy!  We had a basketball theme- of course.  I had "jerseys" made for all the boys.  Names and favorite numbers on the back (pic not included).   I used last names because all the boys call Luke by his last name.

We did a rotation of 3 basketball related games and then played a full court game: blue vs grey.  It was a fun day!



free throw contest: who can shoot the most in 1 minute.  Here is our winner....
