Halloween 2009

Happy Halloween

What are you supposed to be? This is the question we always get when Doug wears this costum. I am really not sure what he is, but he looks cool.

Every year we always have to carve the pumpkins. Here is Lacey this year she thought she was big enough to use the knife herself. She is definatly in the I do it Stage.

Tyson really got into cleaning out his pumpkin.

Zack tried to actually get in his pumpkin.

It looks like everyone is ready to go Trick-or -Treating

Mary, Tony, and the kids came and went Trick-or Treating with us. Look at these two cute cousins and best friends.
After all the fun the little kids were to tired to walk, the big kids were to but since every inch of the wagon was taken they had to walk.
I just like this picture of Nick. Doesn't he look scary!

After the Trick-or-Treating we had a bonfire and made Smores. YUMMMMM!!!

Happy Halloween 2009 Everyone.

Pine Wood Derby 2009

This is the first year that we have got to participate in the pine wood derby.
Nick and Doug had a lot of fun making his car. This being our first year we were not quit up to date on all the cool stuff you need to do to win, however Doug and Nick learned a lot of good tricks and tips and next year all the boys better watch out.


Here is Nick with his car.


Ready, Set, Go!!! Nick and his friend Stetson

Nick and Doug. Way to go team!!!

Family Pictures

So I finnaly got around to getting family pictures taken, I think it had been about 3 years it was time. Here are some of the best shots.

Happy Birthday Lacey!

I can't believe that my baby has turned 2. It doesn't seem like it was that long ago we brought her home from the hospital. Here are some of her newborn pictures.(I am a little behing her birthday was in Sept).


And here she is on her first birthday. Isn't she just the cutest little thing.

Lacey brings constant Joy and Happiness into our lives. I like to call her our princess bully. Being the youngest and the only girl she is our princess, however having 3 older brother she can definitely defend herself. She has a very expansive vocabulary, and will tell you what you need to know to make her happy. She loves Princesses, Dora, and Tinkerbell. And all though I hate to admit it she knows a few pokemon's names and she likes Zack's Bakugans too. I love having a girl around. I can now buy Barbie's and baby dolls and the princess fruit snacks instead of the Sponge Bob ones.

We all love you Lacey. Happy Birthday

(I have to preface this post with the fact that on Laceys birthday we had some camera problems and we only got a few pictures but lots of video)
For Lacey's Birthday we had a family party. All of her Grandmas and Grandpas were able to come, and most of my family were there. We had dinner and then we all went Ice Blocking down the hill across the street. (for those of you who don't know what that is, you basically sit on an ice block and slide down the hill).

Everyone had a lot of fun doing the ice blocking, here are a few little clips from it. You will notice that after awhile they got tired of the ice and started using the wagon. (no one was injured during the making of this movie). ***also please ignore my obnoxious laughter, since I was the one taping I am really loud***



Here is Lacey blowing out her candles.

Lacey got this darling Tinkerbell costume from Aunt Mary and family, and the doll from Uncle Casey and Aunt Shelley.


We all had a great time celebrating your birthday Lacey.

We love you!
