Grandma and Grandpa Gant Visit

Grandma and Grandpa Gant came out for their annual visit in October.  This year, Uncle Andy drove in from California for some fun as well.  The kids had a blast with all the visitors and lots of fun was had.  Enjoy!

Kinley showing Grandma and Grandpa her Halloween costume.  She looks sooooo grown up in this picture.

Grandma Deb let Kinley wear her wedding ring for a couple of minutes because Kinley said that she was missing a ring with her gloves.

Showing Grandma how the her ring looks.

Acting out Rocky IV yet again, this time with Cinderella and Iron Man.

Uncle Andy got in late on Saturday night.  He captured this picture of Kinley hiding in the refrigerator.

Sunday was spent having fun in the pool and later having dinner and going to the Pumpkin Patch.  Colton is throwing the basket ball to Andy as Grandpa David is enjoying the hot tub.

Enjoying the hot tub altogether.

Time to feed the animals again.

This time, only Colton wanted to ride the train around.

Lots of slide fun.

Even Daddy got in on the action with Kinley.

Jump house fun.

The Gant boys; 2014 and Dec. 1997.  They've hardly changed in 17 years!

Last picture before heading home.  We had a great time and it was great to see Grandma and Grandpa as well as Uncle Andy.

Pumpkin Patch Fun

For the last couple of weeks, Colton has been excited to see the pumpkin patch go up on our way to school.  Everyday he would look for anything new that wasn't there the day before (hay bales, rides, animals, etc.).  When the pumpkin patch finally opened on October 1, I told him that we would go soon.  I had taken October 2 off for some appointments and I picked Kinley up from her babysitter a little early and we went to get Colton from school.  They were both surprised and excited when I pulled in the parking lot.  Enjoy!

Colton loved feeding the animals.

Kinley liked feeding the animals but was ready to do something else after a few minutes.

There were lots of picture opportunities.

Taking a ride on the train.

The kids spent most of the time going up and down this big slide.  I wish I would've put Kinley in shorts this day....oops.

Colton looks so hot.  This was right at the end of our fun with the pumpkin patch and he was worn out.

Kinley still had some energy left.  Silly girl.

This last Saturday we visited a "real" pumpkin patch for a birthday party.

Taking a wagon ride around the orchard.

The kids had fun seeing all of the apple and pear trees, vegetables, and of course pumpkins.

September Randoms

Below are some random pictures from September. It was a busy month with school starting back and the kids starting back with sports.  Colton resumed soccer and Kinley continued with gymnastics but we added a ballet class and she has absolutely loves it!  Enjoy!

Learning to jump on the spring board.

Ending gymnastics with a little fun and a parachute.

"Look mom, I have zombie nails."  This girl loves anything zombie right now.

First ballet class.

Kinley loves ballet and her coach, Miss Camille.

Making hugs for cousin Bryce who is serving a mission in Mexico.

The kids had a lot of fun coloring their outlines.

Uh oh, already pretending to put on lipstick!

Kinley all ready for Ballet class.

Kinley's "sassy" face.

I hosted Bunco with a bunch of my teachers. Kinley had so much fun playing with Ava and her princess castle.

Kinley was literally telling me to "go away" so she and Ava could play.

Kinley getting her hair done and giving me the duck face.

Our gated housing community  is only about 140 homes and has a park in the middle of the homes.  Every year, the social committee puts on different events.  This was the "Fiesta in the park."  There was food, music, games and face painting.  Kinley is showing off her butterfly that her babysitter Madeline painted on her.

The selfie station with props.  Kinley wasn't interested in the props nor the picture. 

Five houses from being home, the car battery died on the way home for the party.  Daddy got his exercise in.

At Target having fun in the Halloween isle.  These kids can be so silly.
