Austin and Rylee, caught red handed, while wearing tutus.

The simple joys of a big box. 

Austin is obsessed with Dave. So much so, that we have to come up with rewards for Austin if he can go the whole day without throwing a major fit because he wants his Dad. This has happened twice. Last nights reward: riding around in the backseat of Dave's car while going "wewey fast". #supertrashy #joshuathoughthesawarobberandwantedtostopandpunchhimintheface

Beautiful day at the zoo. #fallbreak #littlemamaaudreypushingthestroller

Today I am grateful for really strong glass. #tigerspitrunningdowntheglass #kidswereinheaven 

Fun weekend adventure. #fivelittlemonkeyslayingonabed #twobiggermonkiesplayinggames #whatdoesthefoxsay

Some fishing on a beautiful Saturday in Oklahoma. 

We had a great weekend roasting hotdogs, s'mores, and fishing with great friends (and drinking dirty Dr. Peppers on the porch)!  #thatstupidfoxsongwassungallweekendlong #itsgrowingonme

These two love birds finally found each other and made it official!!! Kristin will make one beautiful bride! I am so so so happy for them! 

Deciding on a paint color for the playroom.  This project just kept getting bigger and bigger.  Wainscoting. Molding. Lots of work, done by Dave. 

One of these things in not like the others. One of these things will not be able to go to school like his big brother and sister (like he thinks he gets to in the picture). And one of these things will be so sad watching them drive away with carpool. #ijustcalledmysonathing #butitsbecauseofthesong #hewantstodoeverythingtheydo 

We did it! Dave's first half marathon! Next time he said he might train a little more. #hehasntraninoveramonth

Side note: I ran and finished with Chrissy. But I ran back and finished the last .1 with Dave.  He was on mile eight and some girl ran by with a shirt that said, "13.1 in 2013". Dave thought to himself, "What a moron. A half marathon is only 12 miles." Then he remembered it was 13.1 and had to gear himself up for the extra 1.1 mile. Ha! 

I could not have done it without this girl. The long runs (aka therapy sessions), the encouragement, the laughs and even the tears. Thanks Chrissy for great training, and for a great run today! 

The amazing half human/half cheetah Carma who won FIRST PLACE overall for women! 1:30 people.  #shehasfivekids #sheisinspiring 

Soccer practice for the olders. 

So happy to cross that finish line last weekend. #professionalpictureswereposted #greatestterriblehorribleawesomeday

Happy Halloween! #candyforbreakfast 

Austin's little Halloween party.

Joshua's party.  For whatever super lame reason, the kids couldn't dress up for Halloween. Lame. 

Austin just made himself at home in the teacher's chair. 

Audrey's class party. With all that candy, it's so hard to get a good picture. 

We went to visit Dave at work, and because of all that candy, it was really hard to get a family picture. 

Trick or treat!
