Have you missed me??????

Where has the time gone? I guess with trying to keep up with 3 kids I just haven't had time to update my blog. This will probably be a several part update. As I am going through pictures I realize I haven't even blogged about Halloween..... oops.... not to mention School happenings, Thanksgiving parties, Christmas parties, family pictures we had taken, Christmas, and evertyhing in between!!!!

When I last blogged Ashtyn was only 2 1/2 months old, we are fast approaching 6 months!!!!

Casen is still attending Parents Day Out twice a week and although he says he doesn't like school, he has a lot of fun there and loves his teachers!

Rayden is still loving school and we have survived both Soccer and Basketball~ he loved both, although soccer is much more his sport than basketball! He is looking forward to Tball season starting.


So let's start with Halloween.
The kids dressed up as Batman, Robin, and Batgirl!



Rayden with his AWESOME teacher Mrs. Herron and Assistant Mrs. Biggers


Rayden earned a STAR award at school and Taylor Potts was at the assembly to hand out the awards!!!! Rayden became a Tech fan for an entire day!!! He was waving his Guns Up like a true fan!!!!


In the exciting life of Ashtyn, she now gets to eat food!!!


On a much less sweet note, Chance and Rayden went hunting one weekend in Jacksboro. Rayden loves going hunting and Chance really has to find his patience to survive hunting with Rayden because as you all know Rayden is anything but still and quiet.... EVER!!!! After several hours in the deer blind and no deer coming in they decided to give it up for the day. As they were fixing to get out of the blind Chance heard something and saw some hogs moving in. Back in the blind they go. Rayden could hardly contain himself- he wanted a hog!!!! So with a little help from Dad, Rayden got him a hog. He could NOT be prouder of that ugly thing!!!!


Then come the School Parties....
First a Thanskgiving Feast at Rayden's school. His classed dressed up as Indians, the class next door dressed up as Pilgrims and they had a feast!!!!

Ashtyn loves parties at the school.
She gets so much attention and so much room to play in the floor!!!
This is her at 4 months!!!!
Then it was a Christmas Party at Casen's school!
Santa came to visit. Casen wasn't that sure about sitting in his lap.... but he did it. When Santa asked who had been good, Casen quickly answered "My Momma" Good answer, good answer!!!!
And we finished it off with a Christmas Brunch at Rayden's school!!
They had all kinds of fun activities for them, including decorating cupcakes!

Casen dumped the entire bottle of sprinkles on his cupcake!!!!

And Ashtyn looked as cute as a cupcake in her Chistmas outfit!!!!
The class got presents from Melf the Elf....

And that, my blogging buddies, is a little update!!!!
Next our family pictures and Christmas!!! But that will have to wait, the baby is crying and needs to be fed and put down for a nap!!!
