Pumpkin Patch


The rule is you can get any pumpkin as long as you can carry it back to the car. We all found really nice ones this year. Phillip took the longest because he couldn't find one he could carry. Then he had a long talk about Hunting. He wants to go Hunting this year. We broke the news to him tonight that he will not be carrying a gun. He was ok with it at first and we were surprised! He then turned to us and said, "so I am just going to use Mr. Chris or Hunters gun right?" WRONG!!! You cannot use a real gun. He was devistated!!! He said (shouting) HOW CAN I KILL DEERS WITHOUT IT!!! It is going to be a long deer season!! At least for now he is happy with his pumpkin...

Soccer for Phillip!!

Ok. I know I am bias because I am his mom but seriously this kid can play. He was the only one to get a goal the second game they had and the last game he got 12 goals and dominated the field. I was starting to feel bad for the other kids on his team and the opposite team. He is amazing. He really has a lot of talent and I cant wait to see what he does with it. I really enjoy watching him play and I dont know a thing about soccer. He is quite the athlete. I know he is 4, but you have to see this kid play its like he is 8 and the other kids are 3...there is that much difference in his skills compared to the other kids.

Brotherly love


These two are like this all the time. They always have to be loving or wrestling with each other. I dont know what they will do when Hunter has a girlfriend and no time for his little brother....

Phillip's first day of school.

Phillip was so excited to go back to school. I was not so excited about the school year starting. :( Hunter was thrilled b/c he is on the football team this year and stays at school from 8-7 everyday! What a long day!

Phillip had to show me everything about his room and his seat. He was thrilled to find his name and to see his teachers again!

Zoo time

We took Madison and Phillip to the DC zoo. What a zoo! This is the first time I have been there and it was huge!! The kids had a really great time and Phillip walked the whole time. Needless to say when we were done and went back on the metro Bob had to hold all 3 of us up b/c we all fell alseep on him! Poor Daddy!

Phillips end of summer fun

Phillip and I took our best friends (Anna and Shell) to Busch Gardens this year for an end of the year party. Well Shell drove so she took us, but we had a great time. The kids really loved the rides and Anna rode some really daring rides and had a lot of fun. Phillip was able to ride his first rollercoaster this year, the Big Bad Wolf. He loved it. He loves scary rides and rode it over and over again!

Our Getaway

This year Bob and I went to a bed and breakfast. It was wonderful! It was a little Omish place in MD called the Casselman. Everyone was so nice and the food was delicious and cheap! We took a lot home. We decided to do this at least once a year we had such a relaxing time. Here are some pictures of our room and the dining area. There is also a picture that tells a little about the history of the Inn.

Hunter graduates from elementary school


Chris was able to come down for his graduation and that meant the world to Hunter and me. We went to his graduation and I cried the whole time. I could barely get a picture. That is why there was only 3. Thank goodness Chris was there to help with Phillip b/c Bob was out of town and I was a huge puddle of tears!
