Halloween 2009

Dawson as a boxer!

Logan as Luke Skywalker X-Wing Pilot

The boys LOVE Halloween because it involves two of their favorite things...dressing up and candy! Logan said that he wanted to go to a million houses trick-or-treating this year. They had so much fun going trick-or-treating through our neighborhood. By the end of the night their pumpkins were so full that Dawson said it was too heavy to hold. Needless to say, they have enough candy to last a LONG time!

Derick's Birthday

Family Picture - check out that belly!

Birthday Daddy!

Family at Epcot

Derick's 37th Birthday!

On Sunday, we went spent the day at Epcot. We had fun riding rides, seeing the characters and visiting the different countries. The boys got passports and got a stamp for every country they visited. They thought that was cool! Then on Monday, we had a family birthday celebration at the house which included Derick's favorite meal, cake and a pinata. The boys can't wait for the next birthday!

The baby is a...

BOY! Well, after weeks of anticipation, we found out that we are having a boy. They checked out everything from head to toe and he looks healthy which is a blessing! I am a little sad that I will never get that little girl I always thought about having, but still feel very happy about the little miracle boy in my tummy!

Red Dragons - Soccer

Logan just scored his first goal!

Logan is playing on the "Red Dragons" soccer team this fall. He absolutely LOVES it! It is 4 on 4 with no goalie which helps the kids learn more skills verses being so competitive. He's had two games so far and scored two goals in each game. It's fun to watch him have so much fun playing a sport!

Dawson swimming

Dawson learned how to swim this week without his life vest. The first day he would swim back and forth from the steps in the shallow end. By the second day, he was jumping in the deep end and swimming from one side of the pool to the next. I can't believe that he is actually swimming at 3 years old! We call him our little fish!

Logan's Soccer Camp

Julianna "flirting" with Logan

Logan had a blast at his soccer camp. He would wake up every morning, put his soccer outfit on, then wake us up because he was ready to go! He had so much enthusiasm and determination on the field. The coach said Logan's footwork was "excellent" and he was a great, natural defender! He is eager to begin fall soccer which starts next week.

Granny's Visit

We had such a good visit with Granny while she was visiting.  The boys loved playing on the beach and showing her how they "surf".  We went to our first tidepool at Sebastian Inlet which was really cool as well.
