PIRATE HOMECOMING!

On Friday Kali didn't have afternoon preschool so we headed to the Alburnett homecoming parade at 2:30.  We didn't get much candy, but we had a good time. 

Before the Varsity football game, they had K-5th graders preform a poms routine.  It was fun watching the girls.  Alexi, (Kali's cousin performed) and did an amazing job!!!  Way to go Lex!!! She is located in the back row, 2nd from the left!

Daddy and Hoyt taking their Saturday morning snooze!!!!!

Savannah looked absolutely stunning for her first homecoming!!!  Kali definitely wanted to wear her shoes!!!  If the ladies dress up this much for homecoming, I better start saving now for when Kali starts going to dances!!! 

Savannah's group went to Noelridge to take their pictures.  It was just beautiful out there!!!  Savannah went to the dance with a Senior friend named Dallas!

HOLY COW JACKSON IS 5!!!!

To celebrate Jackson's 5th birthday, Kali and I took Jackson to Chuck E Cheese on Saturday!  Kali and Jackson had a great time and played so nicely together.  It was kind of nice going there during the Iowa game as there was a lot less people there!!! Kali and Jackson had a lot of fun playing together....just the two of them.  I know it was nice for me, because I could just watch them and help them out and not have to run around after Hoyt!!!  He will have his day there soon enough!!

I just can't believe how BIG Kali and Jackson are getting!  It is crazy how time flies!!!  

What an adorable Hawkeye fan!  For his birthday we got Jackson a Herkey the Hawk Pillow Pet for his Iowa Hawkeye bedroom! 

The kids LOVED air hockey!  It is one of my favorites too!!!!

And of course we had to see Chucky!!  What a cute picture!!!

There were some other kids that were a little scared of this Chucky, however Kali and Jackson told the kids that it was okay, this was just a robot and not the real Chucky!! LOL!!

After Laura was done finishing up some errands for Jackson's party, she joined us!

Happy 5th Birthday Jack Hammer!!!!  We love you so very much!!!  

While we were at Chucky E Cheese, Dad and Hoyt were at Aunt Tasha's house watching the Iowa game.  Hoyt was loving Tasha's stairs! I really think he may be a stunt man!  He would stand at the first step and fake stumbling and falling down...the more we laughed, the more he wanted to do it.  Hoyt also loved playing with Tasha's cats....I'm not sure how much they liked him, but he sure liked them!!! :)  In the below picture it looks like Hoyt is chewing the cat out, but he was giving him a kiss and ending it with muah!!!! LOL



Are you ready for some FOOTBALL!!!!

Football is definitely in the air!!!  It just smells like football weather!  Last Friday 9/9/2011, we took Kali and Hoyt to the Alburnett/West Branch High School football game!  It was a great game!  Alburnett won 42-35....so far Alburnett is undefeated!  Savannah was also performing poms during the half time of the varsity game.  They performed AWESOME under the lights!!!  Way to go Savannah!!

We were a little late to the Varsity game because Kali was exhausted after a long week of preschool and took a little nap before we left for the game.  She is a little like her Daddy and needs her sleep!  I don't think Kali would have wanted to go, but she knew her friends Kathryn and Tayten were also going to the game and she didn't want to miss out!  She hasn't seen them since she started preschool!  The kids had so much fun!  Hoyt was definitely a Daddy's boy during the game.  Hoyt must already know that football and hunting are Daddy's favorites and he needed the male bonding!

There are a lot of pictures as Kali and Hoyt were also able to hang out with their cousins, Hunter, Alexi, and Shayden.....sorry I didn't get any pictures with Hunter.....I swear it never fails that I forget one nephew! :(

On Saturday after the Iowa game, Jackson came over for a play date with Kali.  Yes....yes...I know Kali is still wearing her cheerleading outfit, but she wanted to wear it for the Iowa football game!!!  Again, one of our favorite activities is riding the golf cart!!!  Kali is getting a lot better at steering!!! 

Labor Day Weekend!

We started off Labor Day weekend by going to Aunt Tasha's house and watching the Iowa game.  When the Iowa game was over, we watched a 3D movie on Tasha's new 3D flat screen TV.  The glasses really help!  They aren't the most flattering but they do work!!!

On Sunday, Brianna and Brent came over for dinner.  Kali loves to wrestle with Sissy and Aunt Savannah!  However, it takes two of them to get Kali down.  They did give her a taste of her own medicine!  Kali is tough but not when it is two on one!  THE BIG BULLY'S!!!!

Hoyt just loves riding on the golf cart.  When daddy grabs Hoyt's hat, he definitely knows they are going for an R I D E!!!  He is even starting to say golf cart!  It is sooooo cute!  I can hear Hoyt chattering all the way down the road.  He could stay on that thing for hours!!!

On Monday, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Holub's to hang out with family and enjoy the beautiful September day.  It was so nice out....I wish we could bottle this weather up!! 

Here is a picture of Laura and Austin!!!

Great Grandma Roseberry and Ben

Another picture of Austin....sorry not a very good Aunt, I didn't get a picture of CJ! :(

Daddy and Uncle Brian were the champs at Bags.  They were undefeated.  Hopefully, Hoyt learns how to do bags from Daddy as Mommy wasn't on her game!

We had a great Labor Day weekend!!!
