Hanny the Octopus

In school Hannah had to make a mask and do a report on her favorite animal. She picked the Octopus and made this mask all by her self (OK, I helped her glue on the pipe cleaners). She had to read her report wearing the mask, it was the most adorable thing ever.

The witches shoes she is holding up are decorations for the table that she made with my mom!

Brooklyn's First Birthday

Brooklyn was so excited

Tay's Last Game

What a weekend of emotions this was. Not only was it Tay's last game but Brooklyn's first birthday (let the tears begin). This game was so hard to watch. Not only should we have won but will I ever see this kid play again, kept going through my mind. He had an amazing game and played his heart out.

This is probably one of the hardest things to watch as a parent. My heart was broken and their was nothing I could do.

He just grabbed Chad and cried for what seemed like forever.

The coaches gave Tay the game ball.

Look Who's Crawling

A few days before she turned one she finally decided to crawl. This is what happens when you rarely get left on the floor because everyone wants to hold you.

Halloween

Our visit to Main Street has become one of the kids favorite traditions.

Logan was a little afraid of all the Halloween blowups.

Senior Night

Wow, I have so much to catch up on. So I am just going to start where I left off. Senior night was Tay's last home game. It was against Valor, one of the best teams in the nation and boy, was it cold. I had been dreading this night since last year and here it was already. I had already cried a ton that day but when it came time to go out on the field, I had to put on my happy face. The Mustangs were getting killed and had not even scored. Tay was not happy and I was trying to get him to smile. I told him this was not about this game but a night to celebrate his high school football career. He had been amazing and had grown a ton(physically and mentally). He had stared out as a 5'8", 135lb. freshman and now was a 6'2", 185lb. senior. Chad and I were definitely proud parents that night.
