1st Circus...for Daddy and Rylan!!

HOORAY for cotton candy!! That is what Rylan and Mommy say. Mommy loves cotton candy, but only in pink! We went to the circus at the beginning of Oct and had a wonderful time. We got a great deal on the tickets and sat really close...the cotton candy/hat combo was $10 and the light was $20 (HA). We saw the new Ringling Bros Zing, Zang, Zoom Circus! Rylan actually fell asleep during the middles of it...to much sugar and excitment for him. We all had a blast!

Backyard Pumpkins...

Every year we grow our own pumpkins, this year we grew Cinderella Red Pumpkins and White. The White Ones didn't make it through the dog tramples and the frost. We had to pick ours early this year due to frost and snow. But they turned out pretty good. (Paige and Zach-check them out)!

September Gone By...

Just some left over September Pictures to share. Yes, I know I look tired in the picture with my Mom and Rylan...and it's because I probably was!! HAHA...

Swimming Lessons

Rylan and his BFF Sydney have been going to swim lessons for several weeks now and both love it. It was hard at first but they are doing great. We've had 3 different teachers but now have a male teacher named Shane, who they adore. Rylan is quite the swimmer he even goes under the water on his own! He did it 6 times yesterday, it about give mommy a heart attack but I am thankful he is comfortable.

Mr Turtle

Uncle Terry came to town from Missouri and brought a turtle for his friend's kid. Rylan got to watch the turtle for a couple of days. "Hey Mr Turtle, I love you" - quoting Rylan. He even tried to kiss it.

Rylan's 1st Day of 3-year Old Preschool

Today was Rylan's 1st day back to school! He woke up and said, 'no school' this morning but ended up having a fun day. He has 15 kids in his classroom, which is alot more than last year. He has several returning friends too! He was being pretty silly this morning for pictures, as you can see!

Rylan's 1st Soccer Practice and Game

Rylan had his first soccer practice and game this morning. They do a 30 min practice and 30 min game. It was quite cute seeing 3-4 year olds running all over the place after the ball. They really do stick together in a bunch too. Rylan enjoyed kicking the ball and made the first goal of the game (not sure he knew what he was doing but ok)! After that he started getting tired and the last 15 min or so was needing to 'rest' and 'drink water'! We have 5 more games to go...next weekend we get a break. He looked soo cute in his soccer gear! :)

Playing the backyard and being silly....

Childrens Museum - Denver

This past week we went to the Children's Museum in Denver with Sierra/Sydney and had a blast! The kids really did their own things, Sydney really liked the grocery store and kitchen part and Rylan didn't even want to go in there. Rylan loved the assembly plant, firetruck, job site area, and vet hospital (and of course Train Tables). He has such a great time!!

Part II, Paige's BDay Party!

The final round of pictures from last weekend....read post below for info...

Quick KS Trip - Paige's 8th BDay

Last weekend we headed to Colby, KS for a quick trip to celebrate my neice Paige's 8th BDay. The party was at the bowling alley, so Rylan got to bowl for the first time and he loved it! He was in first place, then fell to 2nd in the end. It was really fun! Rylan loved visiting his cousins...and Papa and Uncle Kade were there too.

Colorado Railroad Museum

We had a wonderful time last week at the Colorado Railroad Museum with our friends Sierra/Sydney and Julie/Joshua. The kids loved climbing all over the trains. If you have never been there and are in Denver, I'd recommend a visit...there is a ton of history there too!!
