LHP Halloween Party

 What a fun morning for Ben - here is his Pre-K class in their costumes!

Every pirate loves their cookie!

Our precious little spider!  

Boo!

 This year we have a Pirate, a Cowgirl, & a beautiful pink "fly" as Brooke calls herself!  The kids were able to dress up in their costumes a few times this year.  Ben's preschool did "trunk or treat" before their monthly movie night....so I took that opportunity to snap some pictures of them!  I think they are the cutest pirate, cowgirl and butterfly around!

Jaelyn's a smartie pants....she really wanted brown boots this year...so she decided to be a cow girl had to have boots to finish the look!  :)

Rockstars!!

Jaelyn's soccer team is undefeated this year!  It's fun to watch them develop and grow into little soccer studs!  Jaelyn is aggressive and can kick super hard.  She's a hard worker everywhere on the field!  :)  It's neat to see them starting to make triangles and pass to one another.

Taylor, Jaelyn, & Anna

pumpkin patch

 It was a beautiful afternoon to be at the pumpkin patch! 

Looking for the perfect pumpkin!

Ben thought this gigantic one would be his - we told him it couldn't weigh more than him!  :)

Two thumbs up for finding the one!

Off  to try out the corn maze!  

Clues to help us find our way through

Brooke & the tractor ride

Ben went along to be with Brooke!

Queen of the hill

Oxbow Farms

Ben got to go back to Oxbow Farms again this year with his pre-k class from Living Hope.  The little farm is really great.  They learn so much about plants and get to sample all different kinds of foods from the farm:  a root (purple carrot!), stem, leaf (lettuce), flower (pumpkin flower), fruit (liberty apple), & seed (sunflower seed).  All the farmers are really great with the kids - this time we had Farmer Pat.  The kids also got to pick out their very own pumpkin to take home.  Fun stuff!

Buddies!  Ben, Tyler, & Chase

The 3 Amigos (& Brooke trying to keep up!)

Yummy!

Sunflower seeds!

Purple carrots!  So cool.  Ben says we HAVE to grow them in our garden (whenever we finally get around to putting a garden in our yard!)

Always a fun morning if you get to hold a worm!  :)

Gotta have time on the tractor - it's a must for these guys..!

U6 soccer!

Ben is pumped to be playing U6 soccer this fall!  The cool thing is that Daddy is coaching them!  It's a ton of fun to watch him finally get a chance to play organized soccer on his own team!  He practices with Jaelyn's team 2x/week - but this is is OWN gig which is great!  :)

 Ben's team - yep, 4 girls and 2 boys!

Smiling while dribbling!  He's FAST!  Good thing he got Daddy's genes in that category!  :)

GOAL!

Double fisting.  Yep, even sisters get in on the snack after the game!
