Thanksgiving Cuties!

Thanksgiving morning we headed out early to visit Mom in Bowling Green. After our visit, we headed on to Hannibal and spent the day with Grandpa, Nana, Aunt Bobette, Uncle Rick and Uncle Jon.

Halloween Wedding

Here's a picture of Clay and I at our friend's wedding reception down at the Lemp Mansion back in October!

Yay! She finally got her pillow pet. For weeks, she's been telling me, "Mom, I need my unicorn pillow pet right now."

Halloween Dressup

Here's a cute picture of the kids trying on costumes for fun.

Planting Trees

Coyle hard at work digging a hole.


Last weekend we planted two trees in our backyard and 45 tulip and hyacinth bulbs in our front yard. Everyone was involved. The boys planted the trees and the girls planted the bulbs.

First Camping Trip

The first weekend in October we took Coyle and Bella on their first camping trip to St. Francois St. Park with the Humes, Tokos and Trapp families. We had a fun time, although it got down into the mid 30's Sat. night, and we were a little chilly, especially when we got up the next morning. Both kids loved it, (especially smores and playing with their friends) and can't wait to go again.
