A Week Without Daddy....

Image
We spent the first 10 days of November without Kyle as he headed out to Honduras on a mission trip!! We were all super excited for him to go and help people find clean water to drink!!! While he was gone we thought of some fun things to do together to make our time special too... Andrew loves his friend Walker this year. These two boys love being together and do the silliest things!!  Caleb loves swimming so he was really looking forward to wearing his goggles and jumping in!! We  had a great afternoon at the pool!!! Sunday afternoon, Sten offered to play football with the boys while I took Jake in the stroller for a run!!! Felt so great for all of us to get fresh air and for the boys to get some awesome Sten time in!! Thankful for great neighbors!!! That night we were invited to join the Lewis family for pizza and enjoyed a fun night of laughing and playing together with them.... we love hanging out with them!!! A few picnics throughout the week in the living ro

Happy Halloween!!

 Always fun to carve pumpkins together a few days before Halloween! One of the many little traditions the boys love throughout the year as a family!  As the boys get older though the more time and creativity they like to put into them! So fun! What started out to be a cute pumpkin face turned into a 5 sided pumpkin with the first letters of all his brothers names...A, M, C, J...Andrew loves his brothers! He also did a Vikings pumpkin!  On Thursday afternoon, Halloween Day, Kyle and I had to split up and go to each of the kids activities at school. Kyle went to Oaklawn to hear Micah's class sing spooky songs and watch Andrew and Micah participate in the costume parade. I headed over with Jacob to St. Joes to hear Caleb sing silly Halloween songs and pass out treat bags! We all met back home for pumpkin cookies and family time.  You can tell the sugar is hitting Micah's system already! Nice time to check in as a family and hear about our parties!  Ate supper e
