October and November, 2011

We went camping with 3 other families (we didn't take many pictures!) and went apple picking. There was a torrential downpour that night!!

Happy 35th Birthday, Terry!! The excitement of a new plastic sword from Trevor!

Savannah's first "real" haircut.

Pumpkin patch with some of our playgroup friends.

Trunk or Treating at our church!

Uncle Kirk came to visit for Thanksgiving! Gotta love NC...short sleeved shirts at the end of November!

One tradition we have is making ornaments over Thanksgiving weekend to decorate the "kids" Christmas tree.

Happy 4th Birthday, Savannah (September)

Trevor's first day of kindergarten. He didn't do so well the first couple of weeks. But, with the help of a great teacher assistant we are making progress! (Notice who is already in the doorway of Trevor's class!!)

First day of ballet.

Savannah's first flowers from a boy.

The traditional birthday muffins.

We had more boys than girls for Savannah's party and I knew the boys wouldn't appreciate a princess party again. I was able to talk Savannah into a Tinkerbell party...which became a Peter Pan party. I had so much fun decorating I thought I would share these!

June and July, 2011

Our cousins came to visit!

Slip and sliding down the hill in our front yard.

Grandma came to visit!

Our silly string tradition continues as we celebrated Trevor's 5th birthday! Terry recording with one hand while silly stringing with the other!

Pizza and cupcakes at the park after Monkey Joe's.

Getting a little more use out of our hill. Don't quite think Trevor made it down that try though!

An expert strategy for how to get out of cleaning your room!

The kids called me upstairs to show me their "circus." I can't quite see it myself, but it was made of pillows, blankets, jackets, clothes, and even a book and book bag!

December, 2010

Savannah's first haircut (more of just evening it out in the back).

Merry Christmas!

We have been waiting for it to snow so we can sled down our hill!
