Cade's Pumpkin Carving Day at School

Today at school, parents were invited to carve a pumpkin with their 4th grader. Chris took an hour off to attend. They had fun carving a pumpkin. Cade's pumpkin is a headless monster who is holding his head...scary!

I Can Feed Myself!

Goodbye Mini-Van, Hello Suburban

We are currently in Sioux Falls as we purchased a new Suburban and needed to pick it up. We are staying 2 nights. We brought Cade and Paige along but left Camden and Brielle at home. Grandma June is watching them. We should enjoy ourselves in Sioux Falls...it's a nice town with lots of great stores and restaurants. Chris decided with the 4 kids, we have outgrown our mini-van and needed something bigger. Our van is currently for sale, so if you're interested, give us a call!

Productive Sunday

Today was a very productive day. After church and lunch, Chris and I peeled apples and got 4 apple pies made (1 is currently in the oven, the rest in the freezer). We also got some squash cut up and frozen and all of our onions cut up and put in serving-size baggies. As you can see from the pictures, we had to wear swimming goggles in order to not have our eyes water from the strong onions. Every once in awhile, we'd have to go into another room and "air out" our goggles as they'd get steamed up. Camden came up from downstairs, took one look at us, started crying, and went back downstairs. I didn't know we were 'that' scary looking with the goggles on! We got about 60 baggies of onions. It will be so nice just grabbing a bag of onions when I need them!

BY:CADE, PAIGE,CAMDEN AND BRIELLE

I had a very nice birthday. Chris planned a "surprise" trip and wouldn't give out any details. We ended up going to the cities, did some shopping, and went to the Chanhassen Dinner Theater to "I Do, I Do".

Flag Football Starts

Flag football started up again. Last night, Cade had his first game in Wahpeton. They lost their first game but had a lot of fun playing. The mosquitos were really bad last night....we'll have to remember our spray next time! Flag football is on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Crazy Hair!

At Awana on Wed. night, it was crazy hair night. Camden got a hold of the clown wig that Cade was going to wear and didn't want to put it down. Paige had crazy ponytails all over her hair.
