Lizzy hosted a fun get together with some friends for Halloween. I wasn't there the whole time... but I heard there was quite a bit of murder in the dark.
Sabrina hosted a painting pumpkin event. Glow in the dark paints this time. Always a good time with the Strongs.
And if you give a mouse a cookie... (or in other words.. Andrew and Sam had a party too)
In the above picture.... Sam and his friends were discovered all spinning on the ground together. I don't know why, but it was funny.
This was eating donuts off of a string.
The dry ice root beer was a pretty big hit.
Sam was Kylo Ren, Lizzy was a character from Septimus Heap (can't remember the name), Andrew was BB8 and Grayson was a bunny. Not themed... but very cute!
Soccer season ended with a bang... and some dirt... lots of dirt and mud and rain. LOL!
Grayson coming to big kid primary.
Nightly post prayer ritual.
Grandma and Grandpa and Brett came for Thanksgiving. We had so much fun. Like we always do... but so fun that they make this trip so often. We always enjoy it.
Grandpa was constantly occupied with playing games with Grayson and Sam. Since he never says no... I guess he likes it. (Or he's just a nice guy.)
Then we all went skating. Which was fun... but not the fondest of memories... since Brett fell and broke his back. Not even kidding. Fracture... I guess, but still. It was bad. He's been in so much pain the last few months. He's a pretty good sport... that guy.
The Haux family joined us for Thanksgiving. Which was really nice.
Christmas Tree!!!!!
These ladies are seriously the best. Sabrina and Lynn and I have decided we need monthly projects to work on. We have so much fun hanging out and sometimes we accomplish stuff too!
Andrew being honored for being a stellar reader.
These 2 kids were deemed old enough to come to Dad's work party at a glass blowing museum. They didn't break anything... so I suppose they survived. It was really fun to watch.
I got released from my primary chorister calling, but this was my view every Sunday and I pretty much miss it a lot. They aren't always as sweet as this mind you... they also can be kind of naughty, but overall, pretty dang good kids!
