Family Fun This Fall

And I thought it was hard keeping the blog updated before I started working...Well, hopefully these posts will not be too few and far between.  Life is good, work is great, the kids are healthy and we are happy!

We have been filling our days and nights with activities, work, school and play.  All of the kids are busy with after school and evening activities (YW/YM, Choir concerts, debate labs and meets, sports, friends and whatever else we can fill in the cracks with).   Busy is good, it makes the time go by so quickly!  Here are a few pics of what we have been doing this fall...

Getting out the Halloween costumes and trying them on, before the final choices are made...

 Final choices...McKaleigh was a mime, Colton a karate guy, and Alex was a zombie skeleton.
Loving our weekend family date nights!  Bowling is so fun (and competitive) now that everyone knows how to play!
Hit some corn mazes, got lost, tried to scare each other and had some tasty homemade donuts!  We were all too scared to try a haunted spook house...Except for daddy, but no one wanted to join him.
Have spent many Fall days at Wheeler Farm, feeding the animals, playing frisbee and soccer, and loving the fall colors, hay maze, pumpkin patch and baby animals.
Dad's favorite activity...going shooting.  We took the olders and taught them how to shoot the 9mm and 22.  Colton LOVED it and did pretty well.  McKaleigh broke down in tears...guns are not her cup of tea.  We asked her to go at least through one clip - which she did, and did pretty well!
 Now that the weather is getting colder, we are excited for snow and sledding and the activities that Winter brings!
