Big kids at the ward party

Masey and friend Becca as Strippling Warriors

Full body shot. They are so cute.

Brayden also is a strippling warrior

And Serf joins the mix as a nerd or as we like to say Erckle.

It looks as if Masey's getting married

AHHH teenagers. We got a message from the "neighbors" saying they were surprised to see that Masey had gotten married and they were so happy for her. Silly kids love decorating each others cars. It continues to escalate as each kid tries to outdo the next. They also gave her a flat tire.

Also notice the fine paint job on her car! YES, her and Brayden taped off her car and then sprayed it with cans of white paint. We are officially the white trash of the neighborhood. But hey it looks a little better.... just don't look too close.

Colby is 11!

Our family clown is growing up!

He wanted Madden and under armour and look at this ..... he got it!

Showing us some of his moves.

It would not be Colby's party without pumpkin pie and a goofball.

Ward Trunk R Treat

More Halloween Fun! This time at the church. Notice Kates friend is loving her newest Halloween creation. She is now a ballerina!

Eli as Kaachow (that's what he calls Lightning McQueen). He did not like everyone in costumes, it scared him. He did love handing out candy from the back of the van though. We pilled about 3 blankets on us to stay warm.

Girls!!!

Guess who Colby dressed up as? James Bond of course.

Fall Carnival at the Elementary

The kids are attending another NOT Halloween party at the Elementary school were they play games and get to dress up. Mind you, they do not get to dress up on halloween day at school. Kate loved picking a new thing to dress up as for each event. Brooklyn had to be something scary because princesses are no longer Cool!

Kate's Pre-School "Fall Festival"

Kate and her buddies at her fall festival. Here in Indiana we have Fall Festivals and Fall Carnivals but we must never use the word HALLOWEEN! We would not want to upset the... uhh.....Wickens, I guess? We had a long "halloween" season as this party was in mid October.

We enjoyed some games, pumpkin decorating and treats. It was fun to get out of the house and watch Kate have a blast. I got her all to myself too!
