The kids love to go ride their bikes and scooters at MSU, so we try to go at least once a week. I have to admit it is fun! They really like to go right after school because that means we get snacks at The Bakery on campus or at the Union -Starbucks or Chick-fil-a!
The boys take a break at the normal spot. It's a huge pot filled with water -what little boy wouldn't want to stop here?
These rides always tire Charli out!

Havey's 8th birthday party was on November 1st at our house! It was a Star Wars party. We had lots of fun planning it together!
He wanted me to make a cookie cake. We made the snow scene from one of the episodes (I have no idea which one, but I am sure him and Ben know).
We played all kinds of games relating to Star Wars. The above picture was a Marshmallow Fight between the Republic and the Empire. Whenever you got hit with the marshmellow you had to sit down and the team with the last person standing wins. The Empire won! They loved this!
They had to do an obstacle course like Luke Skywalker had to do while carrying Yoda when he was being trained to be a Jedi. The kids carried a raw egg on a spoon through an obstacle course and pretended like the egg was Yoda! The one who made it through fastest was the winner!
This was a lot of fun too! The kids also went on a trailer ride, made smores over a fire, hunted for galactic rocks (treats wrapped in aluminum foil), and guessed how many battle droids (whoppers) were in a water bottle-winner took all! SL has already chosen the theme for his party in March- Cowboys and Indians- he told me to start planning!

Fall Fun!!
Our "bootiful" little girl turned 4 months old 2 days after Halloween!
Our Star Wars Darlings on Halloween night!
I know I will be seeing a lot of these costumes over the next few months, they love to dress-up and pretend in their costumes!
Of course, Charli had to be Princess Leah for Halloween after all those months of being called "Little Leah" while I was pregnant with her. Remember, the boys wanted to name her Princess Leah or Padame after the girls in Star Wars, so they called her that while we decided on her name!
Havey dressed as Clone Trooper Rex from the movie Star Wars, The Clone Wars.
SL dressed like Obi Won Kinobi. This is him wating in line at the Church Fall Festival. They had so much fun!
