Halloween pics!!!

Halloween is such a fun time! I feel like the month of October went by so fast (could have been because I was in Hawaii for a week). I will post those pictures later. I love all the things there are to do in the month of October. We went to Gardner Village to check out the witches, we also went to Cornbelly's corn maze, Mason had a costume parade at school and bowling, and my favorite thing is the Zabriskie Halloween Party. I love to see all the fun costumes and just get together with friends and family. Here are a few pics from our fun festivities....

Gardner Village

We went to Gardner Village this week, we try to go every year to take pictures with the witches. It was really crowded this year, so we did not get as many pictures with the witches as I would of liked. The kids were more interested in watching all the people instead of looking at the camera. Here are a some of the pictures....

Mason riding the pony, Katie was afraid.

Katie had half of a butterfly painted on her face, she did not want her to finish.

Mason had his whole face painted. Too cute!

We went a showed Papa! Same mustaches!!

Swimming

We have been trying to swim as much as we possible can before it gets to cold. Mason swims so good, he is better than me (thats not saying much though). Mason can dive off the side to get the diving rings, swim under water and dive off the board. I am so glad we put him in swim lessons this year, it gave him so much confidence. Katie has started to swim on her own with the water wings (we have been calling them bracelets). I think next year she might learn how to swim with out the bracelets. Katie asks everyday if we are going swimming. Her princess swimsuit is in her backpack just in case. I hope we get to swim a few more times, the kids love it so much.

Fall T-Ball

Mason is playing Fall T-Ball at Gene Fullmer Rec Center. Logan McDermaid is also playing with him, they are having lots of fun. Mason looks forward to seeing Logan at the games. Katie also gets to play with Taylor during the games.

Mason Bowling

Well my boy is officially a bowler!!! My grandma would be so proud. I wish she was here to see him. He is bowling Saturday mornings with a boy named Eian. I actually bowled with Eian's mom when I was a junior bowler. Mason had so much fun and bowled really well!!! He also gets a cool bowling shirt, I am sure he will love it.

Mason ready to bowl.

Yes he bowled a 53 is first game!!!

A 36 his second game.

This is his team mate Eian. They are talking to a coach.

Eian, Mason and Desirae.

Way to start the league off with a 44 average! Great Job!!!

First Week of Kindergarten

Mason started Kindergarten this week. He is getting so big. He is going to school in the afternoon. I asked him how is first week of Kindergarten was and he said AWESOME. He likes school a lot. I would say he has about 23 kids in his class, a lot more boys than girls. Here is some pictures of his first week (you know me I take a picture about everyday).

Monday....

He is modeling for me.


Check out my cool back pack, it is as big as him.



New school clothes, it was a little chilly on Monday so we decided he should wear pants.


Dad came home for lunch so we could all walk him to school on his first day.

This always makes me feel good. Mason running out the door to greet us.

Katie wanted to go to school with Mason.

Wednesday....

Another great pose.

Check out the flames on the shoes. He loves them.

Katie's ready.

Mason always wants to leave really early, so we normally sit there for 10-15 minutes waiting for the bell.

Thursday....

Ready for school.

Katie's ready too!

A little hopscotch before school.

Friday....

Another studly pose.

Too Cool!

Standing in line, waiting for the bell.

Waiting for Mason to get out of school. She plays in the dirt and rocks every time we are there.

I brought his scooter so he could ride it home.

Just weird to think it is just beginning, he will be attending school for 13+ years. I hope he always loves school as much as he does now. I think he will do really well in school, he is a smart boy. Mason, we love you so much.
