Kindergarten Pow Wow

Aaron and I had the pleasure of going to Dawson's Kindergarten Pow Wow. It was the cutest school program I have ever seen. The kids looked absolutely adorable. The songs and dances they did were so cute. We loved every minute of it. Dawson was so proud of it too!

Flag Football continued

This was a great season.  Dallon rocked as QB.  He really did a great job.  It was so much fun to watch him play.  And so neat to see him and his Dad enjoying the sport together.  

Dawson said...

I took the boys with me to the trails by our home so I could get some exercise tonight. Dallon was riding Dawson's bike and wrecked... it scrapped him up so we sent him to the car to wait for us and told him we'd meet him there. Dawson, and I (Easton too, in the stroller), did a second lap before heading to the car. The following conversation happened while on that lap.

Dawson said... "Mom, I just saw a bear!" Where? "You can't hear it because it's being quiet so it can sneak up on people." I acted all scared! Then he said... "I think it ate Dallon." I started fake crying. He loved it because I'm eating the story right out of the palm of his hand. I'm still jogging along crying and he's riding his bike ahead when I heard him giggling. I said... Were you joking? Did the bear really eat Dallon? He said... "I'm only laughing because I like the way he died. Because he's always being mean to me... so I think it's funny!"

sitting on the sidelines... together.

Here are a couple pics I took today of Dawson and Easton at Dallon's football game. Dawson was eating an apple and Easton was all over it. Easton had his first bites of brothers apple today.

At Home

Random pics of our boys hanging out in our home.

friends and a fort

These are two of Dawson's good friends in his kindergarten class. Claire, on the left, is our neighbor. Nicole, in the middle, does swim team with Dawson and her Mom is also Dallon's piano teacher. Dawson had them both over to play and they made this fun fort.

Patriots Flag Football

Coach and QB.

The team has busted through a banner before every game this season.  How fun is that?

Right after Dallon scored his first touchdown ever...  talk about excitement!

Aaron is the head coach of Dallon's football team.  It has made the season so much fun.  Dallon loves having his dad coach.  Aaron does such a great job too.  I am really proud of him putting so much time and energy it.  As coach you get to pick what team you want to be...  he let Dallon choose, so they're the Patriots.  Go Patriots!

best friends

Dylan is our next door neighbor. He is also Dallon's very best friend. They love rocking out to rock band, skateboarding together in the culdesac, playing football, riding bikes, eating dinner at each others homes, jumping on the tramp, playing basketball, etc. We have signed them up to play on the same basketball and football teams... that was a ball. Dylan is such a great kid. The kind you just love to have around. I've told Aaron so many times that I feel we are so lucky to have him as our next door neighbor because he is such a good boy and him and Dallon are the best of friends.

Rock the Vote!

Dallon and Dawson came home from school excited to tell me about their day. They had voted for who they want to be President! Their elementary school had a Mock Election. Each student had a voter registration card, they voted in a special room, and each kid took a turn at a computer casting their vote. I was so curious to find out who they voted for... McCain or Obama? McCain. Aaron and I... we voted early this morning. If you haven't yet... get out there and vote.

halloween party in the neighborhood

Rachel, Claire, Dawson, and Matthew.
These are Dawson's friends. They live by us (in our culdesac). They are all 5 years old. Claire, Dawson, and Matthew are all in the same kindergarten class and play together everyday after school too. These pics were at Matthew's halloween party.
