Turkey Run

Here are some photos of Alstan warming up for his race. He did push ups, jumping jacks and even got in on another family's warm up stretches. He was really excited about warming up with the other kids; I don't think the other kids quite knew what to think of him just joining in.

Painted Nails

During a recent trip to the farm, Elsie got in on the girls' nail painting. She was very proud of her pretty nails.

Christmas Tree

We actually put up our Christmas Tree last weekend, which totally breaks the rules (No Christmas anything until after Thanksgiving).  It was actually Dad's idea to put it up early.  It's fun to watch Alstan and Elsie (and Mom) get so excited about the holidays, and I am a softy!

Chillin' with Dad

Elsie and Dad are just kickin' back on the couch relaxing.  Elsie is a little more like her dad, she likes to slow things down sometimes.

Mom and Elsie

Alstan has been very interested in taking pictures lately. Here are some of his best.

Relaxing with a Good Book

I am not sure where she learned to sit in a chair this way, but it sure looks cute.

Sharing Breakfast

You can't let a good friend go hungry. Alstan's dinosaur has to do everything Alstan does.

Making Dinosaur Cookies

Happy Halloween

Chairs from Aunt Megann

During a visit from Aunt Megann, she treated the kids to these cute chairs. They love them as you can see!

Enjoying some of our last warm days if Fall

Elsie ecorating her Pumpkin

Elsie decorated her pumpkin at home the day after we went to the Crazy Farm.

Busy Barns

At the beginning of the month, we took a trip to the Busy Barns Adventure Farm (the Crazy Farm) to get pumpkins. Alstan was able to decorate his at Aunt Nette's. Elsie spent time in the emergency room with Nursemaid's Elbow:(

Sibling Rivels?

When we can't decide which team to cheer for, we put one child in each.
