Lil Saint Season Ends

Updates on Clifton -
Last week of soccer for Clifton.  He is sure going to miss it.  He had a great group of kids he played with.

Update on McKay -
McKay had a great week last week and showed such kindness to her brothers that I decided to take her out on a little one on one time and get ice cream.  She does have the kindest heart and I love when she shows it, I want to make sure she knows that.

Updates on Stanley -
Stanley got the tummy bug and had a loss of appetite most of the week.

Updates on Hazen -
Getting so big and sitting in his Bumbo.

This week it was my turn to teach preschool and I was so excited.  I really do love teaching and we have such a fun group of kiddos.

D for dinosaur!

Monday for FHE we played in the leaves,

made leaf people,

and talked about how to treat our bodies.  We talked about the word of wisdom and brought up a little about eating meat sparingly.  Clifton's first concern after talking about that was "is pizza meat?" HAHA.

Last week of Lil Saints Soccer.

What a fun and exhausting season.  I love coaching and sure enjoyed the boys on our team.  I am very very grateful to my wonderful husband rearranging his schedule to get home on time for me to go to soccer and for his support.  And for the many friends that helped when Alex couldn't get home.

Friday was our schools Halloween Carnival.  So we got our costumes out early and helped hand out candy at the Trunk or Treat.

Go Seahawks.

Treasure even joined in, but was a little too chubby.

Friday I got to have a little visit with Makayla.  I was so happy she had time to swing by and say hi before she went back home.

 It was nice catching up.

Saturday we had a craft day at church.

I love my sign!

That night we all put on any costume we wanted and went to a dance.

Alex was asked to DJ a dance at church.  The kids got to come with us and we all had fun dancing the night way with some friends.

Sunday we carved our pumpkins.

 This is the first time we let Clifton carve his and he did pretty good and there was no blood!  Win.

 My cute little pumpkin in a pumpkin.

Final product.

Other pictures from the week...

 He is just so darn cute!  All bundled up for while I go for a run.

My favorite time of the day.  Quiet time, snuggles, and reading.

Updates on Clifton -
Had a tough week.  He sure knows what to do to push buttons in this family.

Updates on McKay -
Had a great week.  Lots of sweet tender moments with her and she said she found a friend to play with at recess.

Updates on Stanley -
Loves loves his preschool with his friends.  He begs to go everyday and to be with his friends.  They are such good friends I love it!

Updates on Hazen -
Has discovered his fingers and loves sucking on them.  I love the sound he makes when he sucks on them.  Such a cutie!

We have also started getting little laughs out of him and we love it.

Monday there was no school so we had a Cub Scout hike.

It was supposed to rain but stayed dried for us and we had a beautiful hike.

For FHE we decorated for Halloween.

I love our pumpkin head family tradition.

We organized our garage and I am in love with my workout area.

Stanley seems to enjoy it as well.

Thursday we headed to Pheasant Farms to do the corn maze with our preschool group.

Such a great group of kiddos.

That night was McKay's last soccer game of the season.

What a great season and with the best coach around.  Team Purple Cats is the best!

Friday we had dinner over the fire.

 Just warming up his roll.

So fun and less mess to clean up after!

Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch to pick out our big carving pumpkins.

Love my little pumpkins.

 Cutest pumpkin in the patch!

Such great day spent as a family and with friends.
