October 2015

 Can't believe the boy turned 10 this month. Such a handsome, sweet, caring boy. Love him very much!






He had a Star Wars themed birthday. I'll post pictures of his Star Wars Stuff later.

 We had the party at Get Air, where they could jump to their hearts delight. And then one friend spent the night with him. It was his year for a sleepover party, but he really only wanted one friend. That's best for me too, because sleepovers are EXHAUSTING!!!
 The kids did a 3 hour camp at CMU with the girls basketball team. At first, Breccan was a little apprehensive, since it was the girls team giving it instead of the boys team, but they both ended up having fun.

 And they got their shirts signed afterwards. We're excited to go watch them play this year again. First game, day after Thanksgiving. Part of the camp included a free ticket for both kids for the first game.
 We camped Goblin Valley again this year. Gotta have a family photo!
 The stars were BEAUTIFUL! This one is the big dipper!


 Halloween was fun. The Bay went as a candy corn. :) I made the bow. I was super proud of myself for making that bugger!

 These are the treats fro Breccan's classroom party. Oreo eyeballs.
 Breccan was Darth Vadar.
 Because we're crazy, (or maybe that's just me) we decided to have a Halloween party for the kids. We had a blast, and Jery and I worked our TAILS off getting it ready. It won't happen again! :) Actually, we may do another party some day, but it won't be as big, nor have as much stuff to do.


We started with a donut eating contest. The donuts hung from strings, and we wiggled the bar so they weren't just hanging there!


 We also had a touchy feely activity, where they had to feel inside the box and guess what food it was. We had things like 'worms and coffin dust', 'brains and eyeballs'. It was great fun, watching their faces. There was so much fun stuff from the party, I'll have to do a separate post.

 Check out their faces!!!!
This is Breccan trying to figure out what the worms and coffin dust was. :)
This was called "Face the Cookie". They had to put a cookie on their forehead and using ONLY face muscles, get the cooking into their mouth! 

 The group photo after the jello eating contest! Like I said, I will have to do a separate post with just the Halloween party photos!

 Soccer...I love being a soccer mom. I love to watch them play!
 Miss Kahler, Bay's 5th grade teacher came to a game for a short time. She just BARELY missed watching BayLea make two goals.
 Jerod and Heather's baby, Kyler.
Walk to School Day at LOM. Because we live too far for Breccan to walk, and because I had to be there to work at the school as the kids got there, we dropped Breccan off at his friend Logan's house. They walked (or scootered) from there.

Camping and visiting Trinidad State Junior College

 First of all a little pretty-ness for your viewing pleasure! LOL This is one of the places that BayLea stepped on a cactus in Phoenix. It has FINALLY about healed.
 Playing at the new Canyonview park.

 Camping...We stayed at a very quiet little campground between Lake City and Creede the first night.




 And then went on past LaVeta and stayed at Bear Lake Campground. It was beautiful!
 Took a day trip into Trinidad, as it was only an hour from the camp, to show the kids where I went to college.
 The campus is still quite pretty.
 Me on the basketball court, where I spent a lot of hours!


 The dorm i stayed in.
 The gym behind BayLea.


 Had to get some yummy chili fries.

 The Trinidad bricks that lined all the streets at one time.


 Playing some games.

 The drive back home; this is near LaVeta.
 We stopped at the Sand Dunes. What a neat place. Neither of us had been there since we were kids. It was a cool place, but hot, and we got there about 10:00 a.m.








 This is at the first campground...my pictures are out of order.
