OSU vs. MICHIGAN PARTY

We hosted an OSU vs. Michigan party last Saturday. Brian cooked, Angie ordered pizza (and taste tested it...along with Brady). Brady and Cole decorated! Alyssa and Cole played a quick game of Trouble to get in the competivite mood. Cole and Brady tried to get Archie up and motivated! Our guests arrived and we had a great time cheering on the Buckeyes to a victory!













Our cousins, Tita and Camench from Guatemala really tried to get into the OSU spirit, with their logo and tatoos!











After the party....Archie was ready for a nap!!

Tooth Fairy Madness!

The Tooth Fairy has visited our house THREE times in less than two weeks. Cole lost his first tooth, one week later he lost TWO on the same day. The next day he lost his FOURTH!! All he wants for Christmas is his FOUR front teeth!

Cole with four loose teeth (and a dirty face!)



Two days later, Cole finally lost his first tooth.



A week later his second tooth fell out at school.



The same day his third tooth fell at a friend's house (we think Alyssa ate that tooth. We found her playing with Cole's tooth box and we only found one tooth left!)



Two days later his fourth tooth fell out while rough housing with Brady!



The Tooth Fairy must have earned a raise over the years!!

Trick-or-Treat

Choosing costumes this year for Halloween was easy! Alyssa was Tinker Bell, Cole was Brutus Buckeye and Brady was a gross old man!! YES, Brady's shirt does say 'Pull my finger!" :)



















Brian's 35th Birthday!





Cole's 7th Birthday!





OSU Football-Go Bucks!

We were able to enjoy the Buckeyes this year thanks to our friend BRENDA!! We had great seats and enjoyed the company of many friends during many tailgating events!!




















Fall Scouting

We only camped once this fall. Cole joined Brady's Webelos II group. He has become the official mascot for the pack. The 'little guy' helped in many of the competitions, such as the first-aid race. Brady has been visiting and getting to know to some of the local Boy Scout troops. In February he will choose which troop he wants to join, he will cross over into Boyscouts and begin his journey to become an Eagle Scout.










Cole has followed in Brady's footsteps, he is in his first year of scouting as a Tiger Cub. The Tiger Cub pack hosted a family outing at pumpkin farm close to home.









We think Alyssa would rather join her cousin Katy in Girl Scouts!!

Brady and Cole - Football Season

Cole had a great first year of flag football! He made some great plays for the Iowa Hawkeyes! He will definitely continue playing football next season!











Brady didn't really enjoy playing on the New Orleans Saints this season. He sure did look good in his uniform though!!
