Isn't he so handsome???

Francesville Fall Festival

This past weekend was Francesville's Fall Festival. The kids had so much fun (I'm not gonna lie, I enjoyed it too!).

The fire department had a ring toss stand, and Kelsey and Landon got to help.
Kelsey and Linsey got to get their faces painted. It was really cute!

Catching candy during the parade.

Maddox enjoyed just sitting on Grandma's lap (for a while until he realized they were throwing candy!)

Landon didn't really want to catch the candy - he just wanted to eat all the candy that everyone else caught!

The fire department had a waterball tournament. It was a lot of fun to watch!

Lance is in the front.

Messy, Messy!!

So, being the smart mother that I am, I let my 16-month-old have chapstick in the car! He was just pretending to put it on, so I thought it was no big deal - wrong!!! I looked back, and he was having a grand old time with it. It was all over his face, hands, and legs, and he was sucking away on it! Oops!

Little Cowboys and Girls :-)

Kayla and Caleb rode their horses to our house the other day, and the kids thought that was pretty cool. They enjoyed riding around our backyard! Thanks for the ride Kayla!

So I'm a Little Late, But Happy Labor Day Anyway!!

I know that Labor Day was a while ago, but I thought I would still post my pictures anyway. I feel like I've been so busy lately, but I don't really know why!


Maddox and Landon's favorite thing to do all weekend was play in Lance's truck! Go figure - we spend money on a campsite when we could have just stayed home and let them play in his truck:-)

Lance and Kelsey getting ready to set up the tent.

Maddox and Karter enjoying a snack - how cute!

Hot dogs - yum!

Right by our campsite was a playground for the kids. Well, Kelsey took Maddox on the curly slide, and he LOVED it - can you tell??

I had to post this picture. Maddox found himself in Lance's bumper and was kissing himself:-)

I don't really know why there is all of this extra space at the end, but I don't really want to redo it!!

Do You Think He Enjoyed His Sweet Corn??

Where Does The Time Go??

Kelsey had her first day of Kindergarten today!! She was very excited! She looked so cute with her new clothes and new backpack! I can't believe that she is old enough to be in Kindergarten..... Time goes by too quickly! I'm very anxious for her to get home so I can hear all about her first day!

Just a Few More Days!

Well, we registered Kelsey for Kindergarten this week! She only has 6 more days until she starts! She is very excited about it. She got Mrs. Dewitt for a teacher. I never had her, but I hear she is really good. I'm glad one of us is excited for this!!!

Bunnies

Lucky (our dog) found some baby bunnies yesterday, and Lance was nice enough to save them from her! He brought them home, and they are currently in a box in our garage. Lance and the kids are having a lot of fun feeding them and taking care of them. They are definitely cute!! I didn't get the best picture of them - it's kind of blurry! There are 4 of them - Roger, Sam, Kelly, and Dinosaur. Kelsey named them - lol!

Spirit of Monticello

Today the Twin Lakes gymnastics team performed at the Spirit of Monticello. They asked Kelsey's class to join them, but it wasn't required, and of course Kelsey wanted to do it. It was only Kelsey and one other little girl from her class, and Kelsey was by far the youngest. She did SO good, and it was so much fun to watch her. It was really cute! They technically cancelled the show because the rainwater on the ground would have soaked up into the mats, but the girls that were there still wanted to do it, so they performed in the grass. Thank you to everyone who came to watch her!!

Back walkovers

Kelsey is on the end - doesn't she look cold?

Handstands

After the gymnastics performance, we let the kids jump in the moon bounce. Maddox LOVED it!

Actually, they all 3 had a blast, along with their cousin Rhyan!!!

Let's Go Racing!

We went to Shadyhill Speedway in Medaryville this past weekend. The kids were SO excited to watch Lynn (a friend of Lance's) race his new car. They also had their fireworks there this weekend since they were rained out the week before. Their fireworks show was awesome! It was a great night, and we all had a lot of fun!

Cotton Candy!!!
Waving to Lynn as he drove by!!

Kelsey and Landon thought it was so cool to get their picture taken with Lynn:-)

Fireworks

Kelsey crashed at the end of the night! She was able to watch Lynn race, and then she fell asleep!

Busy Busy Busy

So, the past couple of weeks have been pretty busy for us! I was going to make just one post of everything, but it would have been SOOOOO long, so I decided to break it up. So, here are several posts of our last few weeks! Enjoy!

Kelsey's Last T-Ball Game

Kelsey had her last t-ball game a couple of weeks ago. She had SO much fun in t-ball this year. I'm glad that she wanted to be in it! Thanks to everyone who came to her games!

She got a trophy - she was pretty excited about that!

Here is most of her team

Huddle up

Great job Patio!
