Our FUN weekend in Cape Girardeau...

We had the most fun weekend with Casie and Miah in Cape! The twins did not have school on Friday...so after Devon saw a few patients in the morning - we headed out! The drive was so beautiful with all of the changing colors of fall.

We went to Miah's game (he coaches volleyball at Southeast Missouri State) on Friday night. Since we had celebrated Halloween for a full week...we decided that it would be way more fun to see Miah coach than go trick or treating again. When we were getting ready to leave Casie's house - Devon decided that he did want to dress up for the game. Can you guess who he is???

He wore all of Miah's clothes - I guess Miah lost a bet with his players - so they dressed him in the sweet 80's running suit!

His team totally dominated the game and they won in three! They must be extremely well coached!!

We spent the rest of the weekend hanging out, staying up way too late playing cards, and laughing our guts out! We all had so much fun - we were sad to leave on Sunday - it went by really fast! Hopefully we can get together again soon! Thanks for all the fun!

Disco Party!

We have been celebrating Halloween all week! The twins have already been TrIcK - oR - tReAtInG twice - and we are still 2 days away from Halloween! They have more candy than we need... and tomorrow they have fall parties at school - so there will be even more!

On Saturday night - Willard had "safe halloween" at the rec. center. We did a booth for the eye center- and Devon decided he wanted to have a disco theme! He had disco music blaring from his tent and we had a really fun time.

We had a Vampire, a Witch, and Mickey Mouse! Devon found afro wigs for us - but the best part of the night was watching Devon dance to the music! I even have a video for you all to enjoy...

PuMpKiN pAtCh FuN!

The twins had their first field trip in Kindergarten! They were so excited - they finally got to ride the school bus! We went to a really fun pumpkin patch to spend the morning! I was a chaperone for Hadley's class- which was really fun! Cayden's teacher said he could come with my group - but he is my independent kid - and was happy to stay with his "own" class! It was so funny! So- I have lots of pics of Hadley - and only a couple with Cayden! Having them split up is something that I am still getting used to! The kids went on a fun hayride out to the pumpkin farm to pick a pumpkin.

Hadley had a hard time picking the perfect pumpkin! She searched and searched... but she finally found the one that she wanted.

All the kids in her class thought it was so fun to find the smallest pumpkins! It was so cute!

After they picked the pumpkins - they came back and painted them!

They had a fun swing set - Hadley loves to swing!

There was this cute little train made out of barrels! The kids thought it was the best ride ever!

Here is one of my only pictures of Cayden from the day - he is the third from the back! When it was time for lunch - all the classes were laying out blankets to sit and eat - that was when Cayden came and asked me if he could eat lunch with me! So - maybe he still needs me a little! As soon as lunch was over - he was right back with his class again! (I am definitely not complaining about this - I am glad that Cayden is confident and independent!)

I think one of the best parts for me was not riding the bus! They only have room for a few parents to ride the bus - so I was happy to volunteer to drive my own car (I am not a huge fan of the yellow buses)! As much as my kids loved riding the bus - I was more than happy to get in my car and jam out on the drive home!

Happy Birthday Devon!!!

I have been very absent from my blog the last few weeks! I feel like I have been busy - but I don't really know why or with what! So - I am doing some catch up blogging!

Last Saturday (the 18th) was Devon's birthday!

The twins were very excited to put up streamers and blow up balloons! They even found a birthday crown for their dad! Since we were going out for dinner - we had Devon blow out his candle in a Reese's peanut butter pumpkin!

We only put 1 candle - to protect his health! Devon spent his first 5 birthdays in the hospital with extreme asthma attacks! (I know - his parents should get a medal) Luckily for us - he is much better!

I am so lucky to be married to such a great guy! He takes such good care of me and our family! He is a great dad and makes our kids laugh all the time!

Happy Birthday baby! I love, love, love you!
