Playing in the Leaves

The boys got to play in some leaves the other day. I remember when this was so much fun! Now when I look at these pictures I just think of all the bugs that are probably in that pile!

Bradley's Class Trip to the VFD

Bradley's class went to the Tyler Mountain Volunteer Fire Department the other day. His class so far has gone on the same Field trips this year as they went on last year! Last year it was the St. Albans VFD so at least this year it was at a different location. Anyway, I wasn't able to go so Mom went and took Wesley. They learned all about fire safety and seemed to have a really good time!

My Little Dirty Boys

OK today is going to be a catch up day! I have like 7 posts planned if I can get them all in. I just got several photo albums emailed to me by Mom and Wendy. So my first one is one that is just some random pictures of the boys playing in a mud hole! Yeah mom let them get down and dirty. These were taken on 10/15/08.

Then there was the clean up!

Bradley's Class Trip to the Pumpkin Festival

Bradley's class went to the Pumpkin Festival again this year and I tagged along. They went on Thursday last week and then I actually worked for Good Stuff Good Times on Friday and Saturday. GSGT had a record day on Saturday and can I just tell you we were slammed. We did not stop from 10am till 8pm - it was non stop and a line all day long. Non of us had time to eat, sit or drink anything. It was brutal but it was a record day for GSGT. If you all will remember it was at the Pumpkin Festival last year that GSGT began their business. So GSGT has come full circle, it has been one year and I think they are doing pretty well for themselves. Anyway here are a few pictures of the Festival on Thursday - oh and as if three days of the Pumpkin Festival wasn't enough Jeremy, the kids and I went back on Sunday to walk around and pick out pumpkins - I forgot my camera so I will have to post pictures of that later - once Wendy sends me the pictures she took of the boys. Mom and Wesley met us at the Festival on Thursday also, we just took Bradley with us when his class was leaving so we could hang out and let them do a few more things. Bradley LOVED the Hay Maze they had set up so we had to do it like a million times!

Indoor Soccer Lessons

Teays Valley has this really cool sports park. There are these metal warehouse type buildings on this one road and they have Baseball, Soccer, PowerUp (weightlifting), Cheerleading, Dance, etc... So Bradley is taking Soccer lessons at the Soccer building. It is called Quantum Soccer Center and it is this really cool indoor soccer field. He started about a month ago and he really seems to enjoy it. They do a lot of following directions exercises, some fundamental soccer skills, and really just play a lot of games all the while learning how to play soccer. Coach LuLu is also really cool too - she is from Logan and tawlks liiiiike disssss. :-) Anyway here are a few pictures - my camera doesn't do well in there because of all the lights, it gave me a chance to play around with all the settings on my camera though so some of these are not real sharp.

Fall 2008 Photo Shoot at Aunt Wendy's

Wendy wanted to take the boys pictures again like she did last year so mom took them up to her house yesterday and it was still the same old thing. She got good ones of them each alone but when you put them together you can't get both of them to smile and look at the camera at the same time. Plus Bradley really doesn't listen to Wendy like he does someone he doesn't know taking his picture. But they turned out pretty good if I do say so myself.

A couple more Bradley-isms

Mom and Dad got a new roof put on their house. Mom said Bradley came in the other day from school and went straight to the bathroom - all the while the guys on the roof are hammering - she said he came in the kitchen pulling his pants up and said Nana those guys have "excellent rhythm." How does he know what rhythm is???? Not to mention the fact that he actually was paying attention to the sound they were making and the fact that it was creating rhythm! They sure do amaze me.

Next one - Bradley spent the night with Jeremy's parents on Saturday night. Mary told me they were sitting on the deck and the neighbors dog came over - Bradley claims to LOVE dogs and says he wants one but he is always so "timid" when they come around. Mary said the dog was sniffing Bradley and he was stiff as a board - the neighbor came over and got the dog and Bradley simply said - whew, I am glad he didn't think I was dog food!
