North vs. High

We took the kids to the Norman High vs. Norman North football game last week. We ran into lots of friends along the way. We considered not going into the game, but the boys INSISTED! They wouldn't allow me and Ella in with our stroller so the boys went and watched for a little bit. Earlier in the day I asked them who they would cheer for and Haynes chose the tigers (not surprised) and Port chose the T-Wolves. After watching the game with Dad, they both came out growling like tigers....
Go T-Wolves (they actually did win!)

Orange Tree


I had to go to Edmond the other day for some errands. My mom came with me and since Haynes and Ella were so patient we took them to Orange Tree. It's a new yogurt place that they will be opening in Norman soon! Haynes LOVED his and Ella got to eat some fruit!:-)

Back to School Crab Broil!

Tonight we had a Back-To-School Crab Broil We encouraged the students from our House Church to bring any friends they wanted to share a meal together and show how we do community. It was AMAZING! The food was super yummy and we had a ton of students show up! The boys helped me make muffins and key lime pies, but Port was not sure about the seafood smell:-)

Fun Family NIght

Sweet Ella Rose!

We love doing anything outside right now! Our boys are LOVING playing baseball right now! Ella loves riding her little pink car Lolli and Champ bought her.

Soccer Game #2

Cousins with Bryce

Port and Whitney

The SpiderMonkies did great! I think the highlight of my morning was when Port spotted Whitney on the sidelines and ran off the field to hug her. He immediately ran back on the field!!! Port (our whole family) sure does love Whitney!

Gingerbread Giants!

First Day of School Picture

Port is a Giant at Gingerbread Preschool, and he LOVES it! I can't begin to tell you how many times in the last month he has asked when school starts again. I am so thankful that he loves it so much. Brian and I left a parent meeting a few weeks ago and we both agreed we would love to go to school there too! One of the most exciting things for Port is that Braxton, Sutton, and Dax are in his class too! As I dropped him off on his first day, I just had to laugh at how good God is...I am so thankful these 4 men of God get to go to school together this year!!!

First Soccer Game

Port scored his first goal
and was so excited that he grabbed his cousins
and hugged them to celebrate!
Celebration treats!
Sweet Catherine came to watch Port's first game!
Haynes really DOES NOT understand why he can't play...

Port had his first soccer game this fall. I'm not sure if he loves soccer or his cousins more:-) It has been so much fun watching "the three/four musketeers" improve from last season. Port scored 3 goals in his first game! Go SpiderMonkies!
