Blue Eyes

Can you believe those blue eyes?! Talented Ali was nice enough to take Rhett's one year old pictures. This cute boy is a joy. He loves food, music, learning to do stairs, has 12 teeth, gives kisses, barks like a dog, and says the following words: ma, dada, bye-bye, ball, uh-oh, and deer. Love you Rhett!

Rhett's First Steps

Sloppy kisses!

Chloe is so funny. She just flails her arms around and says hilarious things.

Tanko Turned One

Rhett goes by the following names: Fred, Freddie, and Tanko. Tanko because he is a tank. He is such a big boy and a joy to have around.

Rhett was helping me clean up for his party.

Party Time

The month started with Kyle and I getting to go to some great holiday parites. It was so much fun to dress up. Finally it was like I had prom date that I actually liked!!!!

Always a party with my mom. She took such great care of us and even recovered our couches. We love her!

What is a party without a beef stick? I ate a little too much beef stick this year. Thinking of you Grandpa Hobbs!

Paper Party! Rhett eats about as much paper has he does food. Maybe that is why he is so regular?!

Stocking party. New stockings, PJs, and slippers. Thanks Mrs. Santa.

Present Party!

Santa brought Chloe a kitchen and made her dreams come true.

Luke got a bow. He wants to be just like dad.

Our Sunday best!

New Years Party. Well as big a party you can have with a 5 year old, 3 year old, and 11 month old :)

um.... yes November!

It's catch up time so get ready.
Playing in leaves. Oh sooooooooo many leaves and this is a light load. I raked this much and more like 5 times!!!!

Chloe's turkey hat.

Of course turkey apples. I even made them as a little girl.

Who needs toys when you have bubble wrap?

Cutting down the tree. What a beaut!

Halloween

Such a fun Halloween! We had a great dinner with the Shepherd's and then we ransacked their neighborhood. The kids made a killing and got a ton of chocolate. Yeah for ME!!!!

Halloween in a big deal in St. Louis. People have big bonfires and decorate their garages. They also expect the kids to have a joke inorder to get candy. We did not know this, but Luke made up a joke on the fly! Here is his made up joke.
"What did the ghost say to the spider?"...
"Whooooooooooose is going!"

Fall Fun!

Luke lost tooth #2!

Hanging out while I rake leaves. Something I have to do ALL the time. So many trees. I have filled up about 10 HUGE trash cans full of leaves and I am not done yet!

A sweet lady in our ward made these for our kids. Thank you! They LOVE them!

My Hallween dessert gone bad. Before the car ride..... 1 second after being in the car began. I needed a better design!
