Happy Halloween!



 We celebrated Halloween this year with a Monster Mash! Jacob and his little buddy Eli had a costume party and it was a hit. So much fun to see all these little kiddos dressed up and trick or treating. Nothing like candy being handed out from door to door to get them running EVERYWHERE!


Jay Cutler and Aaron Rodgers...our cute little quarterbacks!!



This was about as good of a group shot as we were gonna get...some kids are still missing.

Pool Party with the Krueger's

POOL PARTY!!!!

Jacob's buddy Eli threw a pool party on Sunday. Well when I say Eli I really mean Eli's G-ma, but close enough! My friend Nicole's parents put a new pool in this year and we got to enjoy a nice summer day with them. So sweet to welcome all of those kids (and big kids) into their beautiful home. Kathy, Nicole, Eli and Jason. Our Hostesses!

Amelia jumping to her mom right before she jumped in without telling anyone...ugh my heart is still skipping from that whole thing. She is fine but she sure scared us!

The big girls helping the little girls! Sydney is such a great friend, teacher, and helper.

The big girls making their plan...

Executing the plan...
And of course they had to DO IT AGAIN!!

Jacob found a great friend in the twins Hailee and Jordy's Dad. He went right to him and even let him take him around in the pool!

Saying HI to his buddy Eli

What a fantastic day! Arick could not make it due to Drum Major try outs, so I did not get a lot of pictures of my little man. These pictures here were "stolen" from a friend. The water makes me a little (A LOT) nervous and so I was on my A game which in turn meant NO pictures. Whoops!

Little Miss Amelia is 3!

Oh how time flys...like they always say, and boy how it ever rings true with Miss Amelia. Amelia was born to Lindsay and Travis. Lindsay was one of my very 1st bestest friends when I moved to McFarland. Her family became a part of my life and who I am today. Lindsay and Travis are HS sweethearts and it is so fun to be apart of their lives. Watching them now having their own family is really just fantastic! They are great parents, and in fact they are who Arick and I have trusted Jacob too. Morbid to think about I know but if anything ever happens to the both of us we feel so lucky knowing that he would be raised with a fantastic family!

Alright back to Amelia...She has been so much fun to watch grow and I am so thankful she is in my life. Just brings a smile to my face to think of that little girl.
Here are some of the very 1st pictures I have of Amelia...

What a doll right?! Gosh she was such an adorable baby and is now the cutest little girl!

Here are a few pictures from her fab 3rd Circus Brithday party. Happy Birthday Miss Amelia...you are so loved!

I really wish I had better pictures, but my camera battery plunked out on me, so as more friends post pictures I may need to update you again. ;)
