Family pictures

These were not that fun! Madden just wanted to be held the entire time, he was sucking his thumb and it was really windy that day ~ but we did manage to get a few good ones :)

Santa

Annual trip to see Santa at Bass Pro with the Klines. This year we added bowling to the night! Heisman told Santa that he wanted either a remote control robot or dinosaur and Madden just said robot (probably because Heisman did). We are excited for Christmas this year!

Halloween

We love Halloween! Not only do we get a TON of candy, but we get to spend it with the Klines and my cousin Heather and Kinley. The weather has been great the last few years so that makes it nice. Heisman chose to be a black ninja this year and Madden was Luigi at the last minute. He did not want anything to do with a costume until everyone else started getting into theirs.... We tried carving pumpkins this year and it was not that fun. Both boys hated the inside of the pumpkin. In fact, Madden was so grossed out he threw up! The carving didn't go well but the boys liked the end result.

UNI football

Our family and the Kline family attended a football game and UNI and the boys got to be kid captains and run out with the football team at the beginning of the game. We all had a lot of fun! It started with a family road trip to Cedar Falls. Tony was able to rent us a 12 passenger van for the drive. It was great! We had an awesome van with plenty of room and Tony brought his hot spot so the boys were able to each have their own tablet to keep them busy. Heisman really wanted to keep the van and was bummed when we took it back. Funny!
