Lost in a Corn Maze!

Since today was a beautiful day outside I decided it was a great day to visit the local corn maze.

  Where we decided that we would try to concur this very advanced cornmaze

But first we let the girls ride the Moo Train, which they loved

Then we entered the Corn Maze

And kids went in all different directions

And I was scared I was going to loose some kids in the maze.

1 1/2 hours later we made it out, I was starting to get worried there for a little bit.

 Then the older kids got their turn on the Moo Cows.

 And of course I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a family picture.

 Last we took a ride to the Pumpkin patch to find a pumpkin

 And almost all of the pumpkins were green?????

Our sweat little girl enjoyed it all!

Brianna turns 3!!

Friday morning we woke up early and headed the six hours down to California to my Aunts house

We came down to celebrate Brianna's 3rd birthday with her!  We had lots of yummy food & treats

 My Aunt Connie is one creative lady!

 We got to visit with family that we haven't seen in months. (Left to right. Melissa & Travis my cousin, Sean)

We all had to wear pink even the boys!

The Barbie cake that Connie made Brianna

 She was one excited little girl!

 Happy Birthday Bri!

All in all a very fun weekend!  Especially the Haunted House us older Children got to go to and all the screaming I did!

Parker's 4th grade trip to wood magic

Diabetes Walk

Today our family did the Diabetic walk in Portland, for Juvenile Type 1 Diabetes

This was Zoe's first walk

As most of you know from this story here , our 11 year old son has type 1 Diabetes.  So this walk is dear to our hearts.  We didn't get to go last year since we were anticipating traveling at this time (which ended up being later).  So we endured the rain and had a great day.

And gave to a great cause that will hopefully one day change his life.

Zoe loved all the activities and her special balloon hat with a squirrel, which later popped

  And Chase got a sword, the only type that he's allowed to have!

And my mom was there, she never misses a special moment with her grand kids

Meeting silly characters

And getting tattoo's

      And our girly girl couldn't miss a photo opt with the Cheerleader group!

Ready to start the 3 mile walk

Or shall I say jog, that I now regret since my legs are killing me!

                       We enjoyed some rides

                                                     And had some fun!

                                                And giggles!

             We stopped and took a break and let the boys roller skate

Chase lasted 30 seconds

We got in some last minute rides

                                  And the cho cho train was a must

Since one little girl LOVES trains

And can never get enough!!!

Once again a great day for a great cause!!!   P.S. Parker & my dad were missing due to a very important fishing trip he had promised Parker!

Chase scored his first goal!

And I missed the picture since I was cheering him on. He got the first goal of the season for his team and almost got a second. Zoe was our little cheerleader cheering him on (or reapplying lipgloss). Parker had two games and did awesome, he's really having fun this year.

Right after grandma applied lipgloss

Half time talking with us about the goal he scored

Parker running he really hussles this year

Running in for halftime

Parker and his new haircut which he hates, but mom think looks better than hair in his eyes.

Chase and his new friend from Kindergarten (whose older brother plays on Parker's team)
