I love it when....


I love it when I am walking across the parking lot with my son and he looks up at me and says "Mommy hold my hand because I am your Son and you are my Mudder and I love you so you have to hold my hand." Melt my heart. I love my son!!

Trick Or Treating

Ready to head out to trick or treat
The kids all decked out with Sawyer who went trick or treating too.
Ephraim the birthday boy Cowboy.
Delilah was Miley Cyrus. She added the hat and glasses which really made the outfit.
Rebekah the Gothic Bat. She is looking to grown up for mom and dads liking.

All in all it was a great night and they even had to come home once to empty their bags because they were to heavy to carry. This is the first year where they all really enjoyed Halloween. Hope you all had a very Happy Halloween.

Ephraim's Birthday

This year for Ephraim's birthday we had a Halloween Carnival on the driveway. It was a huge hit. The kids got to play Pin-a-Face on a pumpkin, Pumpkin Bowling, Coin toss in the Fountain of Doom, Bean Bag Toss in the Bogg, Ghoulish Fishing, and The Heads of the Headless Horsemen Ring Toss. They were able to decorate cupcakes and get snacks at the little ghosts refueling station. All in all it was a huge hit. The craziest part is that my baby is now 4 years old. No more babies in the Catlett house, they are all kids now, sniff, sniff.




WAP

Last weekend BJ took us to Pumpkin days at the Wild Animal Park. It was so much fun. The kids got to trick or treat, do crafts, and play free carnival games. I think it may become a Catlett Family Tradition. Here are a few pictures from that fun day.

It is Cheer time again...

Last week Rebekah's team had the opportunity to perform at the mall (just for fun). They had so much fun and we had so much fun just hanging out. Here are some videos from last weekend.

This is Rebekah doing her individual. This year she will be competing by herself as well as with the team.

This is Rebekah performing with her team. For those of you who can never pick her out of the crowd, I zoomed in on her the entire time so you can see her.

An Annual Tradition, Bates Nut Farm

Last weekend we packed up the Catlett Clan and headed to Valley Center to Bates Nut Farm. We go every year to get our pumpkins. It was quite the adventure. Delilah found her pumpkin in the first five minutes, Ephraim had to be convinced to even get a pumpkin, and it took Rebekah an hour to find the perfect one. All in all everyone ended up with the perfect pumpkin. We even let them pick out candy at the country store. It was a great time.








Camping at Lake Jennings

A few weeks back we went camping with my parents to Lake Jennings (in Lakeside). This was a first camping trip with Sawyer and I think she thought it was the bees knees. We just went out for one night and it was a fun filled night. We had a yummy dinner, roasted marshmellows by a fire, played on the play ground, had a yummy breakfast, cleaned up camp, and came home. Thanks to my parents for inviting us out I wish we could have stayed all weekend.
