Soccer Season

Soccer season finally ended. The kids are bummed but I secretly shouting HOORAY. We have our lives back again. That being said, it was a lot of fun watching them out there. All three of them did really well this year. Here are some pictures of the season.
This the Butterflies. Claire and Chloe are on the bottom left and they actually had another set of identical twin girls on their team. Emma and Abby, they are in the front also.



Safety in numbers


Group huddle

Always holding hands... Claire says it helps them block the other girls out.

Jackson's team was the Eagles. Here are some pics of him in action.

Pumpkin Patch

Tara, Carolina and I took our kids to the pumpkin patch in Castle Rock yesterday. The kids had a blast in the haunted house they ran through about 20 times. Such cute little thrill seekers!

Jackson teaches dad a lesson

I had to write this down because it was so cute. The other day some older kids at school were throwing wood chips at some of the kindergarteners. Jackson told me about it. I told Brandon. Later on he had this conversation with Jackson. Jackson if someone is picking on you, you should stand up for yourself. Next time those boys throw stuff at you, throw it back. Jackson then says "Dad, that's an eye for an eye." Proud of Jackson for knowing that Brandon says, "that's right Jackson... so next time that happens fight back." Jackson says "No dad, when Jesus came he changed that." He pays attention in primary!
