Time for a major update!

I swear to you, every single weekend I plan on updating this darn ol' blog.  My big problem is I can't just start with the hear and now - I have to go back to where I left off and catch up on my blogging.  Then, before I know it, I am wayyyy behind again!

I can start by doing an update on my sidebar!  The pets section needs a big update!  We have been busy as usual so I am going to work on catching everyone up to speed. 

One last thing... I am thinking of making this a non-private blog.  I have gone back and forth on this and might end up doing it so it is a little easier to access for some.

Hope to see you soon and fill you in with all of the juicy details of our little life!

Thanksgiving tradition

We enjoyed a beautiful night in the Old Market this Thanksgiving night.  We are so lucky that Matt was able to spend this tradition with us again.  He did leave early to go to work, but we had several hours of fun together.  Mom, Joe, us 3, Kenzie, and her SIL all had a great evening.  

Thanksgiving Play

Brock's class presented a Thanksgiving play at school.  He was the duck and did a great job on his speaking part!  He had a small section of fans cheering for him as well!

Atlantic Hall of Fame

Matt's grandpa Rollin, who passed away in May, was honored at the Atlantic Hall of Fame dinner.   Three standouts in Atlantic Wrestling history were inducted into the Hall of Fame that night. 

Matt visited with many friends, young and old, during the night.  He was very touched by the stories of Grandpa that everyone shared.

The three Hall of Fame awards recipients.

Skate Time

I took B skating one Sunday with a friend who invited us to go with her and her boys.  He had a really hard time at first, but after lots of tears, he got the hang of it!

We also took B's 3 cousins with us who had all skated before.  They were great to help him get going and encourage him to keep trying.

Halloween Happenings

We were busy as usual during Halloween season.  Brock carved his own pumpkin this year!  He drew the pictures and used the carving tools to cut out his design.

Brock's with stars and BOO!  Mom's cupcake and Dad's Perry the Platypus. 

We had lots of fun at our church Halloween party!

They had tons of activities for kids-

Games..

Crafts..

And B had a fun classroom party as well.

I also watched as the school wide costume parade went through the halls!  Cousin Hallie is right behind B again.

Our annual "pose with the pumpkins" photo for our mini Halloween scrapbook. 

Trick or treating at a friends...they have one of the most decorated yards in town.  B was a little scared of some of these guys and wouldn't go to the door.

We were joined by a few others to trick or treat.   We were not able to get a good picture of all of us!  Two of the grown ups are missing in this picture!

The Boys

We had some nice weather and the boys played a little football in the front yard.

Matt also was the teacher one night for scouts.  He taught on healthy living and the new My Plate guidelines.
