Wilburton Fall Festival

We came home from camping a day early so we could go to the Wilburton Festival.  We haven't been since Aaron was little, and they had a lot more cars than they used to.  Sure wish we could've drove a few home!

Aaron's friend, Cameron, went with us.  They had a lot more fun with a friend there.  :)

We Love Camping!

This was our last weekend of camping for this year.  We had nice weather, and a great time!

She looks uncomfortable, but she was really having fun!

Clark planted a stick for me, and the next morning it had grown into this.  He was so excited!

Zoo

Ryan and I went to the OK City Zoo Saturday, while Denny and Aaron stayed home to deer hunt.  I really don't like driving in the city, but we had fun once we got there!

 

This guy cracked us up!

Catching Up

Our computer has been having problems for a while.  So, after several trips to Staples I can finally blog again.  Yeah! 

 

The boys have been saving their money for a Wii U.  They were able to buy it right after school started.  They've enjoyed it so far!

Aaron turns 13 next month, so we wanted to get him something special for his birthday.  We bought him a bow, but gave it to him early so he could be practicing for deer season.

I did the same thing with Denny's gift.  He wanted a tree stand, and if he didn't get it until his birthday he wouldn't be able to use it until next year.

 

Happy early birthday boys!

1st Day of School

The boys went back to school this week, and a lot of changes have come with it.  Ryan is in 3rd grade, and Aaron is in 7th.  Yes, that's right, Aaron is now a middle schooler.  Yikes, that's hard on a momma's heart.  Aaron's heart is doing fine, however.  He's loving it all right now, especially getting to move up to the teen section in our youth group.  I'm glad he's excited about everything, but I feel like I've seen him mature and grow up just in this past week.  Please slow the grow buddy!!

 

Ryan wishes it was summer all year round.  He doesn't like the confines of the classroom, and then having homework in the evenings.  But, he's taking it all in stride and has had fun seeing all his friends again.

Baptism

Ryan was baptized Sunday while we were in MO.  Pa Pa Ken baptized him, and that in itself is very special.  We're very proud of Ryan and the decision he's made!

 

It's pretty neat that all 4 of us have been baptized in this church, and all by Ken!

Daisy Mae

We had a party for Daisy Mae in Monett.  She's already 1 year old!

 

Tia Silvia makes a good cake!
