Boys will be boys!















Thanksgiving

A man and his barbeque...Chris BBQ'd the turkey this year. I think it was a smoked turkey actually in the bbq. Beautiful...and yummy!

We played a little croquet. It was fun!
Colin and Daddy cooking
Our family!!!!!!







Cub scouts

Colin and his den made a noise stick so they got up in front of the whole group to demonstrate
He got his pinewood durby set...so excited!
Then it was time for rewards and he pinned his mother. He has to put it on upside down then earn it by doing something nice for someone.

Halloween Evening. This is Bailey, Colin's cousin. They are great friends.


Colin's cousin George..SO cute!
Colin and Lilly with the pumpkins. She was such a sweet little princess.

Colin was an Army Guy. Someone asked if he was GI Joe and he said...No, I am an army guy. It was so cute!


This is the first Halloween I have seen Chris dress up. He was always working before. I wore my jammys to work that day. What a great excuse....Halloween! :~) I carried Colin's teddy bear and Chris had Colin's Fisher price medical case. Malissa wore a poodle skirt. We were all dressed and ready to go!

Trick-Or-Treat!


He is such a great army man! Most handsome for sure.

Our trip to the Pumpkin patch...on the pumpkin train!

This was the first stop; The Anderson Outlets...Colin got a set of Lego's Talking to Grandma on the phone

Mt. Shasta. It is so beautiful! We drove around it, and then from the train we got a great view.

Ok, the pics are a little out of order...this was where the train took us. It was just a cleared space on a mountain...by train tracks :~) They took a bunch of pumpkins up there and let all the kids pick out the one they wanted.

So further down you can see the front of the train. This was the last car...it was a double decker so we had to sit on the top! Of course the uncovered car was freezing!


It was COLD! We were so close to Shasta...and it felt like it
This was before we left, but I am still getting the hang of importing the pictures in the correct order :~) Se how warm we were before and after





This is the front of the pumpkin train

Colin talked the conductor's ear off. Everytime I would check on him he was asking questions about the train. It was great.

This is Sunday before church
