Jack-o-lanterns

We got GIANT pumpkins at the Rock Ranch and had a super fun timing making awesome jack-o-lanterns.  The boys designed their faces and then mom and dad helped carve them... then the boys enjoyed putting the final touches on the jack-o-lantern with a power drill.

Soccer Sam

 

Sam had a great season playing soccer.  Here are a few pictures from practice, his trophy, and a game!

WOW! Lots to catch up on...

I think in almost 5 years of posting pictures of all the things we are up to... this is the longest I have gone without posting.   I have so many posts/activities to catch up on.  My goal is to get them all here before Christmas.  I think I can do it.  : )  I'll start today and try to get the rest of our October events posted...

Rock Ranch - Part 2

Here are a few more pictures from the Rock Ranch a few weeks ago.  These photos are on Aunt Beth's blog (she is the fab photographer), but I just had to post them as well b/c I love them!  Enjoy!

The Youmans/Holland crew...Party of 10!

Will and his Uncle B...  he's a happy, happy kid when he's with his uncle.

Had a little fun taking pictures of Katie yesterday... 

 Any candy in there?

The Rock Ranch

We had a fun fall day at the Rock Ranch with family and friends!  It was a fun day with Uma, Pops, Uncle B, Aunt Beth, Levy, and the Perkins/Maleskis!    Here is some of the fun...

Jump, Jump, Jump!

 Katie checking out the Ranch!

 The B's and cute Levy hanging out at the campfire...

Ziplining....yikes!  Yep, Will went ziplining.  Pops bravely went with him.  Will loved it and felt like such a big kid!

 Uma and K...

 Taking a little break on a pumpkin... she's pooped out after a long day!

October Fun!

We had a nice weekend at home last weekend.  One of Sam's friends had a Halloween party, so the kiddos got to dress up in their costumes.  They had a ball!  Astronaut Sam and Ninja Will!  : )  

 Cute boys in the pumpkin patch!

 This is the one I want...

Put me in, Coach!  Katie hanging at the baseball fields... I have a feeling this little girl will spend a lot of time at the ballfield!

 Tired, pooped out boys...

 Kisses for my brothers when I wake up in the morning...

Fall Break at the Beach!

We had a fun long weekend at the beach for Fall Break!  We got to spend time with all the grandparents...Uma, Pops, Nana, Grammy, and Grampy!   The weather was perfect and we were able to enjoy several long days on the beach.

The boys spent a lot of time in the water boogie-boarding...

 Uma and Pops just had to get Katie a UGA outfit.  Here is the little bulldog with her Pops...

This was her first trip to the beach since she has started walking and she had so much fun (she was into everything)!  She is a beach bum just like her brothers.

Fun Weekend with Camping and Hanging Out!

The boys camped out in the backyard with Daddy this weekend.  They had a blast!  Earlier in the evening they wanted to make sure that Katie got to hang out in the camp before she went to bed.  Here are the kiddos...

Katie got a new chair... she loved hanging out in it!

 Happy Will!

 Katie watching her brothers play tennis!

 Wanting to do a little rock climbing...

Sam with his astonaut he made for school.  For a school assignment, he had to make what he wanted to be when he grows up.  Here is the finished product...precious!  He was so proud.
