Party and Patch

Friday Landon had his school Halloween party. It was alot of fun. They played all kinds of carnival games and won prizes. When it was time for treats, Macee wanted to sit at Landon's table with his classmates and have a snack too!!!

Landon was just a little excited:)

This is his group he sits with. He LOVES that it is all girls for two reasons: 1. he loves girls and 2. girls are good listeners so his group wins a treasure box treat at the end of the day:)


After the party we went to the pumpkin patch. Trying to get a picture of them together is exhausting!!!!!!!!!!




So pretty!



She like to sit on the pumpkins like they were little chairs.



Love her to pieces!



These tricyles were sooo cute!!! Macee loved riding back there!!! She would have done it for days if Landon would have let her!!!


Landon found his perfect pumpkin!





Macee got to ride her first pony. She loved it!!




Of course, he loved it too!




I hate carving pumpkins. I just have no patience to sit and make a design. I also don't like putting my hand inside either. So it's a good thing Marc has patience for it!!! Landon and Marc carved 3 pumpkins that night.



Macee had fun cleaning out a pumpkin too!!! She even tasted it and was very shocked at how it tasted:)

50th Day of Kindergarten!

Here is Landon and his best friend from school Dani in their 50's clothing!! Couple of cuties for sure!!!!

Special School Events

Landon has been a busy boy at at school the past few weeks. He was Star Student last week. I took a few pics of his area.


He brought 3 things to show: his light sabor, a baseball trophy, and a batman plane. He also brought his favorite books, Curious George Makes Pancakes and Curious George at the Parade.


The top left says, "I am special because: I am a good big brother and I am a good friend"


Landon's class led rise and shine last week. Landon was soooo excited to talk on the real microphone infront of the whole school!!! He had lots of speaking parts and did great!!!!


He memorized all his lines:)


Last week was Jog-a-Thon and the Kindergarten won the much covetted award "The Spirit Stick" They won this by decorating their hallway with school spirit and by saying a cheer at the Jog-a-thon assembly.


As many of you know, Landon is VERY competitive and takes jog-a-thon very serious. The top runners and fundraisers in each class earn medals. Landon won a medal both years of Pre-K. He was thrilled both times. This year a couple days before jog-a-thon he told me his goal in life was to win a medal every year until 8th grade!!! Well...... on the night before jog-a-thon landon got SICK!!!! He was soooo upset!!! He was still vomiting the next day at noon, when his class was suppose to run. He told me to take him to school and he could just throw up as he was running..... Did I mention my child is competitive?!?!?! Anyway, let's just say he learned a life lesson that day. On Monday they had the rewards assembly and Landon was SOOOO shocked when he won a medal for fundraising for his class!!!!!!!!! It made his day!!!! He could not have won this without all the support from his aunts, uncles, grandparents, and neighbors!!!! Thank you!!!!!!



Landon with his medal:)
First thing he said when he got in the car after school that day " Welp, looks like I might still reach my goal"



Here is a fun picture from Hat Day and Wear Red Day for Red Ribbon Week.
Today was the 50th day of school and the Kindergarten dressed in 50's attire. I will post some pics from that later! He looked adorable!!!

We went to Oktoberfest last night and had a BLAST!!!! We ate, drank, rode rides, and danced on tables!!!

We left the little babies with the grandparents and took the big boys!

Landon loves to dance. He was ready to "Rock n Roll"- his words, exactly! He was sliding on his knees across the dance floor!!




Having a great time!!!

Hitching a ride back to the car! We had so much fun and can not wait to go again next year!!!



Safari with the Flusche's

Marc's oldest brother, his wife, and their two kids are in town for one month from Bahrain. We went to a drive thru Safari in AR on Thursday with them and Marc's dad and his wife Beth. We all had such an awesome time!!! I could not believe how close to your car the animals get!!! Landon was taking a picture of an Ostrich with the window down and it grabbed his camera right out of his hands and threw it on the ground!! Luckily, his aunt got out and saved it!!!
Macee and Gavin loved feeding the horses.
Landon and his Cousin Tanner are only 23 hours apart.

Daddy's Girl








John and Beth with the zebras






Macee loved sitting on everyone's lap during the drive thru part.









Closest I have ever been to a wild animal!!!!! This was taken from the car window!

This llama did not like Marc talking to him:)
