Thanksgiving Weekend

Ty loved that he had 4 days off from school....

Clone Troopers attacking!!

Gilbert Farmers Market's petting zoo

The kids and I had dinner at my Aunt Shelly's house on Saturday. Great-Grandma Cottrill was down for Thanksgiving and it was good to see her....Ty loved the Reddi Wip!!

Thanksgiving

We celebrated Thanksgiving with Brian's sister Brooke & her family at Brooke's in laws house in Queen Creek! It was a great time to spend with family and eat some good food!!!

Brian holding Quinn, Brooke's 1 year old! Loving the face!

Keira "helped" Quinn open his present!!

Isn't he cute?!?!

Yummy turkey leg! A tradition in our house...Ty gets a leg!

Monkey face from Keira makes the day perfect!!!

Bikes!

My birthday gift from Brian and the kids was a bike! Tyler is doing such a great job riding his bike and while Keira is still working on getting her princess bike to go without mommy's help, it is great to be able to ride as a family!

Cowboy flag football season comes to an end...

Tyler's fall flag football season has come to an end! While our team developed individually and as a team, we lost our second tournament game on Saturday! It is a lot to ask 5-6 year olds to play back to back so I think our players were okay with going home...not so much for our coach!

Warm up time!

Coach John and Brian during game.

Half time...

Finally a good action shot of Tyler running the ball!!!

Tyler's Cowboys helmet for a good job! He also got an MVP plaque for never missing a game or practice!!!

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween! Brian's sister, Brooke, her husband, Dave and their son, Quinn, came out for a very quick but fun trip!

Brian had his work cut out for him this year with the pumpkins since Keira picked a challenging Sleeping Beauty design. Luckily, Ty picked a Yoda head and arms he just stuck in.

This year Ty dressed up as a Clone Trooper from Star Wars, Keira was Cinderella (sans the crown or jewels since she wasn't interested in wearing them!) and Brian was the Grim Reaper.

Dave and a little shark...oh...it's Quinn!!!

Keira was done trick or treating early so she came back to the house and passed out candy with Uncle Dave and me! This was my first year I stayed home to pass out candy. I always feel bad when we go out and the houses are dark because they are out too. So, little did I know how much candy I would need. We went through 10 bags and I had to bring down some dum-dums from our pantry!!!
