Home of the free....BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE!!!

Today was Riley's very first school assembly!!! How very exciting!! She's been practicing her songs at home almost every night. I must say it's pretty darn cute, she's even got Colt trying to sing a few notes with her. I've been trying all morning to post the video.....it's taking forever so for now I'm just putting pictures. I'll try the video a little later. Happy Veteran's Day!!! Thank you to all that have served and all that are serving!!! You are true heroes!!!!

Riley and her teacher Mrs. Hawley.

Pickin up leaves!!

Riley had some homework this weekend....to decorate a turkey. So we decided we would use leaves as tail feathers, off to the walking trail we went to collect different leaves. Oh I love this time of the year. Everything is sooo colorful and the cool crisp air is just perfect.

Riley showing me what she found.

Colt showing me what he found.

And showing me is disgust for cacti. I hear ya Bub they are ugly!!!

Here he thinks he is going to escape.And of course a sword fight with the sticks we had to pick up.And after a little exercise you must have ice cream!!!

Ice cream ALWAYS gets the better of Bubba!!!

It's Halloween!!!!!

And man did we have a blast!! The family decided to go with a Toy Story theme this year. We had Woody, Buzz, Jesse, Ham, Mr and Mrs Potatohead, and Slink Dog. We were suppose to have Bullseye but Halloween night he decided he didn't want to make an appearance (Colt that is) so we had a construction worker I guess. He had on a flannel shirt and wanted to carry this drill so we went with it, I mean what can you do??!!
