Just a few shots from two games. The season is actually over now – a ton of rainouts made it a short season. They did however

I had the camera with me one day in August while we were at the stable and the light was just gorgeous. I forgot to post these photos until now…

We had a GREAT Halloween! Hayley decided to go as something different this year and we put together her costume ourselves. She went as Danica Patrick, the first woman to win a Formula One race. I’m not really a racing fan but Formula One is more interesting to me than NASCAR and Patrick certainly made an impact culturally. We went through about 20 ideas and Danica Patrick was the only one Hayley loved – I’m sure because she is gorgeous that helped Hayley with the decision.

Turns out they sell replica jersey versions of her racing suit (just the top part). That with a hat we got from there, black soccer pants, black underarmor soccer shirt and riding gloves made for one adorable but mean race car driver.

Our friends up the street had a party beforehand so we all went up there for dinner. They did a great job with their garage! I made a green jello Frankenstein hand and encircled it with looser red jello – it was GROSS looking but tasty.

Jeff and Hayley took off to trick or treat with our next door neighbor Wes and their kids Ethan and Mason. We figured Ethan would tucker out sooner so Wes ended up taking him home and Jeff continued on with the girls. Jen and I hung out on her front porch and handed out candy. Of course if you know me, you know I love Halloween. For the 4th year, we handed out glow sticks with our candy – and this year I got Pop Rocks and Pixie Stix. Oh yeah, I rule and you know it! ha!

The kids came back with insanely filled bags, we weeded through them, traded and tossed some out over at Wes and Jen’s. We let the girls play until about 10:30 and finally took the 10 steps to our house and crashed.

Photos: Doggie Halloween!

0

We decided to pull out all our dog Halloween costumes and dress up the dogs for a few moments the evening before Halloween. I knew they wouldn’t stay in them long so we did it just to be silly for awhile.

We dressed them up in matching polo shirts from Old Navy and then went to the more daring selections of Pirate, Zorro, grass skirt and others.

We attacked a pumpkin and carved it up. We used a cool pattern that Hayley picked up called the Mad Hatter and it turned out really well. She thought the inside of the pumpkin was cool, I still think it is gross.

Visiting friends

0

Last month we visited my old roommate and dear friend Michele Eager and her daughter Ava. It was the first time our kids met and it almost made me tear up. We don’t see them enough.

Then we hung out for the day with our friends Sara and Landon. Lunch, the park, all the glamorous mom hang outs. We love spending time with them and always end up spending hours with them!

Jeff and Hayley went to the Wright Brothers Memorial and had a lot of fun.

Hayley stood at all four marks of their flights while Jeff took her photos – you can see them in order in the slideshow. They also ‘re-enacted’ a photo I took of Jeff years ago on top of the monument there aka the Genius Photo. Hayley’s version is much cuter. I’ll try to drag out his at some point.
