Perfect day at the park

The kids had a wonderful day at the park Saturday. We went and picked Drue up from her house so Konner and her could play together and everybody could run some energy off since the time change always messes our kids schedule up. It was a very nice day and not to hot.

Halloween

We had a really fun time this Halloween with our friends Dina, Chad and their kids. They rented a bounce house and the kids just ran around crazy through the whole house. Then we went trick or treating in their neighborhood and then went back and handed out candy. The kids were so cute in the costumes Kadence was a  good witch with gray hair and purple eyelashes, Kymbell was Raggedy Ann with cute red circles on her cheeks and drawn on black eyelashes, Konner and Greyson were vampires with black hair and painted face with fake blood. They did really great all day long and they were wore out by the time we left their house. Kymbell was so tired that she fell asleep during trick or treating and stayed that way the rest of the night.
The kids bobbing for apples.

Kymbell and I trick or treating .

Kymbell all tuckered out from all the days events.


Halloween and a Ghost Town

The Ghost Town of Calico, California sets the mining town up as a Halloween ghost town with a haunted house and decor. We went with Mrs. Dina that is Konner's teacher and her family. He and Drue had a great time running around and playing. They also have two other kids Madi and Eric which they are great also. Madi is super with Kadence and Kymbell  and keeping them happy and occupied. We went the weekend before Halloween.

Happy Birthday Tinsley

Happy birthday TInsley. We love you and miss you so much. We hope you have a great birthday party and you great lots of great stuff. I wish we could be there for the party. MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU


So Pretty, but Not Her....

These are the words that come out of my girl crazy 5 year old son Konner. Mom Drew is pretty, really pretty, but I'm not going to marry her. Ok, that's fine with me if you don't want to marry her. Hey mom I want to marry another girl. What ever honey it's fine with me. Not thinking he had a girl in mind already. I'm going to marry Brooklyn!!!! What are you talking about Konner? I am going to marry Brooklyn!!!! Does Brooklyn know the two of you are going to get married? Yes, I already told her we are getting married. I guess he thinks girls don't have to say yes.

Yes, Konner and I had this conversation a couple of days ago. He is so funny when it comes to girls. We go to the gym all the time and he goes to there playroom and his goal is to play with girls.

Slurpee!!!

SLURPEE!!! 
The minute we get in the car to leave the gym that is the first word out of everybody's (the kids) mouth. Actually anytime we drive by the 7 eleven we hear that word. Kymbell even knows what they are when Kyle brings them out to the car. She has been able to drink out of a straw for 5 months or more and learned quick that everything is better out of a straw. So these days I get a slurpee and share with her. Lets change that around Kymbell gets a slurpree and I get a couple of drinks while she screams at me to give it back to her.

First Concert...

We had a great time a the food and musical festival Bite of Las Vegas on Saturday. They had it at a huge park with a playground, bounce houses, rock climbing wall, tons of great food, and really good music. We enjoyed music from locals and music from people like Lifehouse, Puddle of Mudd, Metro Station, Secondhand Serenade, Lenka, and Justin Nozuka. Metro Station was probably the kids favorite b/c they love to listen to the song Shake it. It was a great day all together the kids were great with no fussing gripping or fighting. We got there at 2:00 and we different leave there until about 8:30. Over all it was a great time and great entertainment, but we did miss Greyson this weekend and wish he could have been there with us b/c he to enjoys all the groups that were there. Here are a few pictures of us enjoying our day.                                              Konner attempting to climb a rock wall.

                       Kymbell just being herself and enjoying all the people and the noise.
    Kadence at the end of the night sleeping during Puddle of Mudd. She was really sleepy at the       end of all the days events.

They had a really great play area since the concert was in a giant park. So we had to make a stop there and let the kids run off some energy.

Halloween

Greyson's school always has a Halloween carnival and I thought it was tonight. I was so wrong it's not until the 24th, but I had them all dressed in their costumes so I took pictures and guess I will go ahead and post them. The girls are in what they are going to be for Halloween, but Konner hasn't got his costume yet. Konner costume is from a couple of years ago I think. Greyson's grandparents came into town so he didn't get to take part in all the confusion that I had going on today. Kadence is a cute witch and Kymbell is Raggedy Ann they turned out to be so cute in their costumes.

WALKING?

Little miss Kymbell has not had the urge to really try out walking unless it is cruising around the furniture. The past 2 week she has started to hold my hand and walk beside me without me really doing anything for her, but giving her the feeling of comfort that I'm their with her. Tonight she took 5 or 6 steps to me by herself. I am so excited for her to be able to run with the big kids.

What's not to LOVE...

What can I say except what is not to love about these very precious kids of mine. They are all so sweet and a little rotten on their own special way. I am glad that it now easy doing most everything with four kids than it was when I had the boys 6 and 4 years and Kadence 1 with a brand new baby. I am really glad that taking a picture with all kids looking is getting very easy these days. Kymbell has really got the same mouth as Konner their front two teeth are the same distance apart. She is the best baby that I could have ever asked for being my 4th child I'm glad that she came last b/c she is the  most patient, even tempered loving baby. I couldn't imagine not having her as part of our family.

Kymbell getting packed around and being spoiled by her big brother. If she had it her way this would be her only method of travel. You can't tell that she is enjoying this.

Fun Fall Day!

We have a local orchard here that you can go pick veggies, apples, and pumpkins. It was really fun watching Kadence run through the pumpkin patch and the apple orchard. Kymbell crawled around looking at the pumpkins and played with the pumpkins that we had already picked. I let the girls get a small one each and when I gave Kymbell hers she wouldn't let me have it when we got back in the car. I am so excited about fall being here because the temp. has started to drop below the mid 90's finally and the kids can go outside and play anytime during the day.
Kymbell not letting me
 have the pumpkin when we got back in the car to leave.
