The Whitings: March 2011

So part of me wanted to stop blogging altogether but I decided to keep going because it is really the best way for me to journal. I like to do digital scrapbooking but, I'm finding that it's hard to find time to do that even so if I just make a goal to post a few pictures and journal what we're doing I can print it off and have a nice journal with pictures! I figured out that it takes forever for my pictures to upload because they are such a high resolution so I might fix that too and so it's not so time consuming! Anyway...here's a few things since last post. October:

We spent a lot of time watching Jaxon play soccer...He played AYSO this year instead of city and liked it a lot better.

We got to go to Black Island Farms with Brooklyn's preschool class (I'm her teacher so it worked out). They had big slides, jump houses, animals, and a barrel ride. We also go to ride on a trailer behind a tractor out to the pumpkin patch and the kids got to pick their own pumpkin.

Our neighborhood does a halloween party just for the kids. This was the second year they have done it (I say "they" because again, I didn't do squat to help-sorry!) The kids get in groups and rotate to different houses where they do different activities. It is always so cute and so fun for the kids.

Here is Optimus Prime and Belle listening to instructions. Gabe hates dressing up and wouldn't even put on a costume this year until we finally convinced him to be a football (Steeler) player. SO he didn't dress up for the party.
