Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!  On Saturday we went to Boo at the Zoo and met some friends!
We had so much fun!  I was a cat.

And as we previewed earlier in the month, I was a fireman!

"Trick-or-treat!"

One of the friends we met at the zoo was Ben.  I went to school with him last year and his mommy works with my mommy.  He was Spiderman.

We had fun finding the alligators in the reptile building!

Here we are all looking at a HUGE turtle!  It's me (Jackson) on the left, then Ben, then Sissy, then Ellie.

It's SO nice to have Dad back home.  He's starting to feel a little better thankfully.  I missed my daddy!

Ellie and I were hoping to see the new lion cubs, but they were sleeping already.  Maybe next time.

Then, as if having Daddy home and going to the zoo didn't make for the best weekend enough... Mom, Jackson and I went to Uncle David and Aunt Audrey's this morning!  We had so much fun playing with Isabella and Cohen and their new dog!

The cherry on the top of our great weekend was getting in to my new comfy robe after my bath!

Me too!  Thank you Ma Mac and Aunt Kate!



With Dad being gone for so long, Nana and Papa came to spend some time with us and helped out a lot.  Another big thank you to them for everything they did and for spoiling us!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Love,

Daddy's Home!

Daddy went on a long trip for work and he is finally home!  He's been under the weather, but we are just so happy to have him back.  Miss Katie helped us make Daddy a Welcome Home cake!

While Daddy was gone, Nana and Papa came to help!  They spoiled us rotten and we enjoyed every minute of our time together.  Daddy took the camera to Asia with him, so we didn't take too many pictures.

We had Ellie, Gavin and their mom Katie over.  It was a beautiful day, so we played outside most of the time... but the best part was decorating Halloween cupcakes!

I got some new necklaces and bracelets.  Aren't they pretty?  I love putting jewelry on!

I had my Halloween party at school earlier this week.  I was a fire fighter!  We even had a parade.

Miss Katie took a picture of me in my new hat.  Too funny!

I love pumpkins and can't wait to carve mine this weekend!

I also love to tag along and do whatever my brother is doing.  There is no sound and you can tell it was taken with our spare camera. :)

We are looking forward to our upcoming Halloween weekend and spending it with Daddy.  We hope you all have fun trick-or-treating!  We will try not to let so much time go by before our next post!

Love,

Fall Fun

Hello!  We continue to have so much fun with Miss Katie.  We have been enjoying the unusually warm weather and playing outside a lot.

Of course there's plenty to do inside, too.

I had some "homework" from school.  I needed to decorate a pumpkin any way I wanted!

Nowadays Kendall has to do the same as me... always.  Sometimes having a little sister can be a little annoying...

At other times, having a sister can be a lot of fun!  It was SO warm this past week that Miss Katie brought out the sprinkler for us to play in!  It brought back fond memories of our summer.

I got my Halloween costume!  Mom and Dad let me try it on.  What do you think?

We went to the Carroll homecoming football game on Saturday.  It was a beautiful day to be outside watching football.

It was a perfect day to play some football.

At half time we explored the area behind the football field.  We found lots of fun things!

We ran and ran and ran.



Hurdling may be in our genes... but we have a lot of work to do. :)

Like brother... like sister...



It was a fabulous weekend, other than they always go too fast.  Have a great week everyone!  Happy Birthday to Auntie Kady on Wednesday!

Love,

Jackson

The Pumpkin Patch

We were all excited to go to Apple Holler today!  Then we arrived... and realized there was one L-O-N-G line, but we made the best of it and had a wonderful time!

I was very patient while we waited.





















We saw a piggy - and it even oinked!

We saw lots of goats and chickens, too!

There was a corn "cave," too!

We had a lot of fun playing.



"Peek-a-boo!"

There was a wooden train there - loved it!

Mom told me to smile... I'll work on it. :)

No holding back any smile here!  This was the pumpkin I picked.  It was heavy!

We enjoyed the beautiful weather and quality family time.  Hope everyone has a great week!

Jackson
