Fall means leaves falling, which means more leaves

With all the leaves on the ground this morning, we thought it would be cool to rack them up into one huge pile and get in the pile for a few pictures. The kids worked together to make a biggest pile of leaves.."EVAH!" as Drew says! Enjoy the shots, it only happens in Fall baby!

I got the ladder out and got way up there with hopes of getting better shots! May not be the best shots ever, but the process was fun and the kids sure thought it was fun trying the hit me!

Drew's training pays off at the race!

Alrighty, so the kids races are informal as they can be, but I will say this...Drew got a fourth place and was the first girl in her age bracket! That's pretty cool folks! She got her much awaited
medal for her efforts! We're proud of her! Brady decided not to race but was there with the bell to cheer his little sister along with Mommy!

There she goes about mid way thru the race! She pedaled super hard in the section to get up to the boys who had more pull in the grass section!

Here she is ready to start the sprint for the first turn! She looked ready to go!

Derek & Drew take a bike ride!

Today Derek and Drew took a long bike ride, by Drew's standards of course, along the American River Bike trail! We put in a total of 10.5 miles, with two pee stops and Powerbar breaks! This girls has the "it" factor! She tried to drop Derek on several occasions..better check yourself g-girl! But I promise in a few years if she continues, that wont be an issue! I love you Drew and you rock my world!




The two dorky cyclist being "normal!"

Note the leg warmers...they are actually Derek's arm warmers! What does that mean? Skinny arms or big legs? Dont know, but the idea worked and she was happy and warm!

Halloweeeeeeeen!!!!!!!!!

For the past few years we have had a little tradition of Didi coming over and having a fun dinner, and getting the kids in costumes for Halloween. This year was no different; Brady was Woody from Toy Story and Drew, Aurora, a Disney princess. While we were out, Didi passed out candy. However, we think that Brady and Drew enjoyed passing out the candy more than getting candy. So the second half of the night was pretty fun with friends coming over to get their dose of candy! Thanks for the pizza Didi!

Not that anyone is keeping score...nahhhhh! BEARS WIN!


BEARS WIN!
That's right! 2-1 was the final unofficial score since the leagues doesn't keep score! The kids had a great game each. Brady is an awesome lil back while Drew is a total forward and will soon score!

Halloween was fun last night! Didi came by with pizza before hand, the kids got dressed and off they went!

The night started
off slowly but it
eventually picked
and we even had familiar
faces knock at the door!

A slow yet busy Sunday
with loads of cleaning,
49ers vs. Colts game and
a ton of photo editing!
