Belated Pics


Ollie's 5 year old interview:
Favorite color - yellow, orange, red, and black
Favorite food - still mac and cheese and hot dogs
Free time activity - watching TV (although his mom would say that his new passion is crafts, but TV was his answer)
What he wants to be when he grows up - a gym teacher
Favorite toy - Ollie didn't have an answer for this - all of them

Our buddy has grown so much in our 5 years together.  He is truly a kid now.  He loves to play with his friends at school, and often says he wishes it was a school day.  He loves to be with his family and is a bit of a worry wart.  He is funny and loving.  He wants so badly to be a big kid and do what big kids do.  I can't convince him to stay little.  He is a super big brother and an all around great kid!


Penny's interview:
She and I often lay in bed and interview each other.  She likes for me to ask questions that she has answers to.
Favorite color - blue
Favorite food - candy
Favorite game - hide and seek
Favorite animal - giraffe (very serious about the giraffe love)
What does she want to be when she grows up? - unknown
What do you like to do at school? - crafts

Oklahoma trip and Erica visit

 Helping Popcorn unload some wood for their new outdoor fireplace.  Ollie was into this manly task!

 Tyler had his 30th birthday while we were there.  Happy Birthday, Ty!
Erica came and stayed at our house for a few days last weekend.  Ollie and Penny had a blast playing Zombies vs. Plants with her.  She got a Monopoly game, and taught Ollie to play.  I loved Monopoly as a kid, so I hope he will, too.

Halloween

 Is it just me or does this pic above look like an album cover?

 We tried a photo shoot of magician and his white rabbit, but the kids were not as into it as mom and dad.
