Fun with Grandma

Grandma Sillman came for a visit.  She was able to stay for four days and we made sure to pack it full of fun!  By the time she left, we were all exhausted...and wondering how soon she could come back.  Time with Grandma never seems to come often enough!

We shopped, ate out, attended soccer games, baked cupcakes, carved pumpkins, played with toys, watched football games, made crafts and just hung out.  It was wonderful!!  Thanks for visiting, Grandma!

Carving Pumpkins for the First Time

Chad and I had Parent Teacher Conferences last week.  We asked our neighbors to watch the kids for us.  Ron and Cheryl love the kids and the kids love them right back.  To no surprise, Ron and Cheryl had a fun night planned.  They bought pumpkins and wanted to carve them with the kids.  A very exciting event because this would be the kids' first time carving a pumpkin.

They had a great time and the pumpkins turned out great!!
