Halloween

For Halloween this year we decided to have a party at our house, but before that we dressed Brek up really quick as a bee and went trick-or-treating downtown at Dad's office. Brek was too cute, and I'm surprised at how well she wore her costume without fussing. We rushed home after that to get the house all ready for the party. Brock did a really good job decorating, and everything looked awesome. I dressed up as the Grinch with my lovely tummy, Brek became Cindy Lou Who, and Brock was a hunter. It was lots of fun! Thanks everyone who came. I'm realizing now how terrible I am at taking pictures because I forgot to get a picture of everyone at the party!

Coach Payne

Brock was able to help out the Bobcats in football this year. He helped coach the defensive line. He is also the off season strength coach for the girls' athletics program. He loves being involved in the athletic program, and I know that they love having him there.

California

We were able to go to California the middle of October for Brock's sister Bonnie's wedding reception. It was so good to see that side of the family! We had so much fun, but of course wished we could have stayed longer. Bonnie and Brandon looked so happy together! I have to apologize though because we didn't even get any pictures with our camera with them!

Girls' Night Out

The boys took off on a camping trip one Friday night, so I decided to have a girls' night. I wish I would have planned it earlier so that more girls could have made it, but as you can tell I am not as on top of things as I should be. It was still lots of fun. Mom, Kacy, and Kristen were able to make it. We played games, ate tons of junk, and watched girly movies.




The girls had more fun with Brek's toys than she did! :)




I made lime pie. It took FOREVER to make. I liked it.


This is pretty much what everyone else thought of it. Bleh!!!

Fun in the Sun

This was our last trip to Lake Altus for the summer. Brek loves the water and the sand. We saw a turtle poking his head up very close to where we were swimming. Everyone got out of the water for some reason after that.


Here are the turtle hunters...

Brek's First Birthday

Brek turned one August 12th! And of course I am just now putting up pictures. :) We had a fun party, and Brek loved her cake. Brock did an awesome job on it. Thank you to everyone who made it so fun!
