Selfies

Ok so I am not big on selfies and actually I rather always include one of my kidos. I am also horrible about my hands being in the way. I am defiantly no Kardashian but I do sometimes get silly with Gracie with pictures on her iPod and then later delete them. I decided not to delete them this time thinking she might like to have them later they were funny. So I will share.

and Gracie girl had chocolate on her face...

Pumpkin

This year we did some simple pumpkin picking and then headed home to carve. I think Gracie and I tend to pick the hardest thing to carve and then we have to ask Troy to do it because I just to have the patience to do it so it is becoming a tradition to have him make them.

yuck. mommy had to clean them out.

no one else would touch it...

Football Love

While Mema was in town she got to attend her first TIU game in 10 years. Long time and it was a good game to watch, although the game lasted FOREVER. A kid got hurt really bad and they could not move him for sometime and then the ambulance took him off the field about 30 minutes later. We spent most of the time watching the game from the van to keep Mr Nolan close to the PT chair. We got a few fun pictures to share.
