Pumpkin Carving!

When Daddy finished work today he helped us carve our pumpkins.

Bring on the power tools....

Finally....the pumpkins are done!!!

We finished the night by watching "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!"

Just a few random pictures from last week....

Liam's end of season soccer party at Godfather's Pizza.

Spooner Farms 2008

It was a beautiful day to visit the pumpkin patch. Liam and Lauren picked out their favorite pumpkins and had fun playing with friends.

Messy but worth it. When we got home I was talked into opening the "Moon Sand", a gift Liam received for his birthday. They must have played an hour or so with the sand (about the same amount of time it took to clean it up)!

Happy 5th Birthday Liam!

Liam's Pirate-Themed 5th Birthday Party was last Saturday, October 11. We had a great time celebrating with 16 little pirates!

After the party...

Liam is learning to work his new laptop from Aunt Laurie and Lisa.

Decorating for Halloween

Lauren insists all Halloween decorations look best on one window. Liam spent the day trying to talk her out of this theory. We will keep you posted.

We did the Puyallup - Again.

We went to the Puyallup fair for the SECOND time this year with Terry, Vickie, Seth and Taylor. The first trip we went with Nana, Papa and Grammy. No pictures from the first trip - a camera doesn't work well without a smart card :) Ha. We remembered the camera AND the smart card this time. Smart wife.

Despite the frown, Lauren was thrilled to meet Dora.

Watch Out! Here I Come!

We are ALL in Lauren's way when she is riding a bike. Just don't turn your back on her 'cause this chick is dangerous.

First soccer game of the season!

Above: Liam with the ball - he almost scored.

Liam had a great first game! He almost made 2 goals (he was sooooooo close)!!!
