Football and Cheer!!!

Ryan's Flag 49er's team.
(3 of his cousins were on his team with him, plus Sarah Haskins as his head coach and Daddy as an assistant coach.)

My little football player.

Go Ryan "BLOCK"!


Go Ryan, GO!
The coaches, taught the kids to pull the flags and hold them above their heads...they all did with such pride! So cute. :)

Always playing with that mouthpiece!


Ryan with a couple of his team mates...this was the day they lost their first game. We were undefeated all season till this day, and all the boys were stunned, shocked, and so sad. They didn't know what it was like to lose...poor boys. But it was an awesome season and it got Ryan all ready for tackle next year...ahhhh....

My pretty cheerleader....

Practice!! Practice!! Practice!!

The 49er's Flag Cheer Team!

Haley and Coach Claudia...who was so awesome!
This was taken after their final performance at the TCC in Tucson. They did such a good job, all that practicing paid off. They all got rewarded medals and teddy bears! :)

My sweet girl.

Haley and her best friend Reese. Aren't they so cute!?

It was a fun season...Haley loved it and she can't wait for next year!!




Happy Halloween!!!

Before heading off to a big night of Trick or Treating we stopped over at Grandma Kathy-bell's so she could meet our... "Scary Monster guy?", "Hannah Montana", and "Mickey Mouse"!!!
...Or should I say a drunken Mickey Mouse! lol...he was very wobbly...

"I'm ready to go Trick or Treating, Mama!"


Here's our group that we went with...a bunch of Ryan and Haley's cousins!

Ok, all ready! Let's go get CANDY!!!

Wait, one more picture...Ryan with Devin, better known as "the Scream guy"...

Here's Hannah Montana with Batman! Whoa, watch out!

Half way thew, Colin found a sucker!

At the end of the night, I think Mickey stayed up to late and had a few too many suckers! lol

Of course one of the best parts of Halloween is to come home dump all your candy and sort it all out... Mommy's favorite...shhh :)










Pumpkin Carving!

We had to squeeze in our pumpkin carving night between Lucas's Rail Road schedule, and the kids sports schedule...we almost didn't get them done before Halloween, but all in all they turned out so cute!Daddy and Ryan figuring out the plan for his pumpkin...
Here's Ryan's drawing for his pumpkin... :)

Haley and I scooping our seeds out!!!...as Haley would say "Ewwww, this is GRooossss!"

Ryan carving away...

Haley carving and being very careful to stay in the lines...


I carved Colin's pumpkin! :)

All ready for bed, but a quick picture with their pumpkins!

Now, we are ready for Halloween!








The Pumpkin Patch!!

I know, I know! It's been such a long time since I last posted anything! We have been so busy with sports, and the holiday's approaching, I'm just getting around to posting all our latest pictures, and really I'm only posting a fraction of them, since I have been taking so many lately, I don't want to "over post" everybody with pictures! Even though I would love to have them ALL on here....I will post some of Ryan and Haley's football and cheer pic's, since that really took over our lives for a short while! :) But for now, here's our "Beginning of Fall" pictures. It's our annual tradition to go down to Aqua Linda Farms in Amado, they put on an awesome Fall Festival with a hay maze, petting zoo, yummy organic food, and a huge pumpkin patch! I will say this year we were a little disappointed that the pumpkin patch was FILLED with stickers, but oh well, it's part of picking your own pumpkin in Arizona, right!?


Haley and I as a scarecrow and a pumpkin stack!
Colin doing a good job following Daddy in the hay maze!

Ryan and Haley were pro's at the maze, they didn't get stumped once! :)

The goats in the petting zoo were so friendly...

...they even let Colin pet them, and pull their tails!!!

My twins! ;)

It was so sunny they wouldn't look at me to take the picture, so Haley had to put sunglasses on, she said! :)
Here's what we picked!


HAPPY Fall to everybody!!! Love you!
