Parker place 11th out of 56 boys in his age bracket for his 1st Gymnastics Competition on December 19th. His team placed 3rd overall. Parker was the youngest of the competitors. He was so excited and really enjoyed the meet.

Christmas Fun

 

The kids, with cousin Aaron, enjoying Daddy's handi-work of an ice rink in the back yard.

 

Making a Daddy sandwich.

 

Great fun, Great Family, a Great Visit!

Halloween

 

Here are the kids dressed in their costumes before their Halloween party for their friends at our house.

 

Mom and Dad headed out to the Midnight Masquerade as a witch and warlock.

 

Carving pumpkins. Tia did not like pulling out the goo and seeds. Parker and Iris got a kick out of it. Sadly the pumpkins got smashed on Halloween night so Iris decided that next year she will make her jack-o-latern scarier.

 

Ready to go Trick-o-Treating. Gabe did not like his costume and didn't make it very long.

A day at the Museum of Science and Industry

 

 

 

Having some fun checking out some of the exhibits at the Museum!

Adventure Hikes

 

 

We went to Rock Cut State Park over Labor Day weekend for an 'Adventure Hike'...the kids liked walking through the streams and caverns of Mattieson State Park better but Gabe was able to walk on the trails by himself.

 

9-19-10: Tia got her first haircut. She was so excited! Daddy took her and got some good pictures!
