School Friends

Canon and Aidan have both made good friends at school. I go into Aidan's school once a week, at least, to do AR (accelerated reader) and try to eat lunch with Aidan. He always invites his buddy Noah to sit with us and they have made quick friends. Noah is new this year to Dogwood and I am proud of Aidan for making him feel welcome! They get along so well and it's nice to see great friendships developing.


Canon is also making fast friends at preschool. He and Cooper are so funny to me, they are both little, kind of blonde, and just funny little guys. We had Cooper over for a play date and they had a blast! We dressed up like Buzz and Zurg, and when they both wanted to be Buzz, I told them one could be the Spanish Buzz, so Canon ran around speaking "spanish" and dancing like Buzz does! We built rockets and chased and tickled. Good times, good friends!

Last Game for Aidan

In the van on the way to the game we prepped Aidan, last game, last chance to score a goal, this is your time! No pressure.....but wanted him to try his hardest, he hasn't scored a goal this season. And HE DID!!!!!!!!!! Todd is such a good coach he put all the players who hadn't scored yet this season as forward to try and let them all score and a couple did! We had a great last game, and I didn't bring the camera!!!! bummer....but here are his team pictures, with Coach Todd! So proud of all my boys!

Halloween

We had a great Halloween, with our traditional party at the neighbors and then trick or treating. Canon and Quinn made it to about 5 houses and were done, so we came home. Daddy and Aidan stayed out a bit longer and brought us home some yummy candy! It was a fun night! Thanks Mymom for the awesome costumes!

Last Game for Canon

Canon's first soccer season came to an end on Halloween. He had a great time and really did well! They had a great program and Todd and I had so much fun helping out with his cute little team. Go Blue!

He was so proud to get his first medal!




At the hop....

The third graders have a sock hop every year and this year was Aidan's turn! We slicked his hair back, put on his jeans, white shirt, and "letterman jacket" They practiced the dances in PE for several weeks and we got to watch them twist, do the bop, the bunny hop, and the hokey pokey! It was a ton of fun, and he even asked his momma to dance with him :-)

Aidan and Avery, dance partners and good friends..yes just friends, he's in third grade!!!!

Children's Museum with Addie

We had an amazing visit with Chris, Ashley, and Addie! We ventured out several days, ate way too much food (Dyer's burgers :-) and just enjoyed hanging out, talking and watching the kiddos play. They all got along SO well! It was fun to see the cousins together. Addie and Quinn got their girl on, wearing high heels and tu-tus! Monday, the boys had school, so we took the girls to the Childrens Museum, it was a blast! Silly Aunt Ashley....
