Happy Halloween!

Hot Cocoa Night

Nothing better to do on a cold and rainy night. So with our mugs from Aunt Audri we enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa. The boys think they are big stuff to use such big coffee mugs.

Veggie Tales Live

Tonight my mom and I took the boys to see Veggie Tales at Central Weslyan Church. We had great seats and they really had a good time.

The Mystery Trip

Sunday we took a road trip with the kids and Dan's parents. We called it a mystery trip, because only Dan and I knew where we were taking them. Since the boys love old fashion cars, we found a place in Hickory corners called The Gilmore Car Museum. It was very impressive! They had so many classic cars in very well kept barns. Some of the barns were two-stories with cars in both. They even had a 50's diner, and many places to bring your own lunch and picnic. We went out for dinner at Fricanos in Kalamzoo. It was a fun day.

Tonight we attend the annual Holland Police Reserve Banquet. Dan was given his 5 year service award tonight. It was nice to see him be awarded for the 5 years he has been a reserve, and all the time he puts forth.
I am proud of him for having his full-time job, his reserve job, and
being a wonderful father!

Pumpkin Fest

My mom and I took the boys out to the pumpkinfest in Zeeland this week. Josiah loves bunnies, so he was so happy they had some to hold. Both boys took a turn riding on Jake the donkey. Saturday we took them to the parade and Aunt Audri joined us.

Josiah and I went on his class field trip to Post Family Farm today. The weather turned out to be beautiful. He loved the bus ride. In one of the pictures they are tellling a story and Josiah is on the end portraying a bumble bee. Josiah is on the rocks with his lady friends. The one we hear the most about is Shontea. She is the cutie in the middle of the girls. They all got to eat donuts and apple cider. The parents all got to try the donuts as well. They were very good! We all got to pick a pumpkin. The pumpkins we chose were pie baking pumpkins, so we may give that a try...anyone with a good recipe?? We hope you are all having a great start to the fall season.
