emma and i had her daddy take our pictures together on saturday when we were both wearing our cheerleading uniforms. we're pretty good buds considering our teams are enemies!

elliott is going to be a chunky little chicken for halloween - how cute is she!!!

Pumpkin Patch

we had a great time at the pumpkin patch! Elliott loved being outside, and loved the hayride.

wyatt and i had a hard time picking out which pumpkins we wanted.

wyatt found a big one he liked.

wyatt and wesley and i got our faces painted. wyatt's lizard doesn't show up that well. i liked wesley's pirate face. i had mine painted like a football, but it didn't stay on very long.

wesley's little sister (and elliott's best friend) emma loved her pumpkin!

Boating

We tried to spend as much time on the boat this summer as we could.
These are some pictures from Elliott's first overnight boat trip.

Kellen and Dad and I have fun hanging around in the water.

Elliott did a lot of napping.

In the morning we did some fishing before breakfast.


And we had some visitors.

Look at little Miss Hollywood!

kings island

a lot has happened since our last post. while we can't fill you in on everything, we're going to at least try to hit some of the highlights. for starters, we went to kings island this summer. it was soooo much fun.

me and wyatt rode almost every roller coaster in the park while mom and dad took turns hanging out with elliott. we loved the vortex - we rode it once with mom and once with dad! this is us after we survived it the first time.

we really liked the pirate ship, too.

dad's been trying to get mom to get a van - see how cool it can be, mom?
