Halloween 2006

Gabe's first letter..

Shane's brother Steve plays the guitar and Gabe knows this and thinks he is so cool! We were at a restaurant on Sunday on the patio and he found this guitar pick on the ground. First thing he says is, "My Uncle Steve plays the guitar and he has hundreds of guitar toothpicks!" LOL LOL..he then said he wanted to mail it to him "so he could have a hundred and one toothpick." Here is his first letter he wrote all by himself!! SO proud of him!

 

Halloween Festival

We went to a festival at Chase's preschool last night! The boys had a blast!!

Mini Muddy Buddy

So Shane and Brandon (college buddy) decided to do the Muddy Buddy...it is a race where you run/bike and do obstacle courses then at the very end, you army crawl through a huge mud pit...just look at pics...They got 4th place! Not bad for their first one!!

Well we signed the boys up for the Mini Muddy Buddy...they were in HEAVEN. They ran a little obstacle course, crawled through the mud pit, ran across the finish line (where they put a medal around their neck), then got to wash off in the lake!! BOY HEAVEN!! I posted tons of pics/videos, but this was so cool!!

Really random, but Paul Mitchell was the main sponsor, so they were doing $10 haircuts. The boys always need a haircut, they are chia pets, so we take them over there and Chase tells the guy he wants a mohawk! The guy says you dont have enough hair, so he gave him a fauxhawk!! That kid is a trip!

Here are the pics, but scroll down for the videos!!!

Chase's "Field Trip"

So Chase was a little upset that he didn't get to go on a field trip "like Gabe." So, we had a little field trip to the pumpkin patch of our own. We met some of his friends there, then went to McDonald's! Does it get any better?

Gabe's 1st Field Trip

So Gabe had his first field trip the the Pumpkin Patch. He was sooo excited to get to ride a REAL school bus! It was the hit of the trip!

Crazy Hair Day

I am playing catchup...This was Crazy Hair Day at Gabe's school...
