 I know it's been forever. These pictures are not in any order. I am just trying to get them on quickly. Sadly I actually broke our camera and didn't get to take pictures for a month or so. We now have a new one, but no promises on getting updates more often. Happy Veterans Day! and 11-11-11, what a cool day to finally update the blog! This picture is for Aunt Lanita, Ty loves this jacket. He was looking through the scrapbook and saw Josh wearing it and insisted that it was him and Clark, not Josh and Andrew.

 Happy Birthday Josh!!! I can't believe he is 10 years old. His birthday landed on a Sunday this year along with the primary program. Josh played "Praise to the Man" while the kids sang during the program. He was not excited about sharing his birthday, but he did a great job. He also got to have Halloween parties the day before and the day after, so it wasn't too bad.

 Our neighborhood always has a parade and pizza party before sending the kids out to trick or treat. Ty really tried to keep up with the big kids.

 The other day I found Tyson getting stuff out of the pantry and taking it into the dining room. When I asked what he was doing he simply said "Clarky is hungry," He was taking Clark food. I thought it was cute, so I took a picture and let them continue. I thought he would get bored, but they emptied out two full shelves and started on a third before I stopped them. Then two days later while playing hide and seek Clark saw someone behind the chalkboard and started bringing out the food again. What a goofball!

 Tyson has started going to speech therapy. He has been doing some fun art projects. He gets to write his name on them when he is done. He was known how to spell his name for awhile, but never really tried writing it. He was very proud to show him his name yesterday.

 Picture from Josh's birthday. You can see how much his brothers love him.

 Andrew decided on Saturday morning (hours before the ward party) that he wanted to be Mega Man for Halloween. I didn't know who Mega Man was. A video game character from an old gameboy game he's been playing. We quickly through this together and he was thrilled.

 A rare shot of all 4 boys.

 Another shot for Aunt Lanita. Andrew, Ty, and Clark have all worn this shirt. There is a matching Mickey one, but of course the Donald gets more use. In fact it is the only shirt that has been worn enough to start wearing out the embroidery and trust me that is hard to do.

 Josh and Andrew set goals for the summer. Josh wanted to read 200 pages of the President Hinckley Biography and Andrew wanted to learn how to ride a bike. Both were accomplished! Andrew now loves riding his bike!

 Big Smile!

Even Curtis dressed up for Halloween this year! Everyone loved the adorable Donald Duck and R2D2. Ty even looked like his was waddling whenever he walked.

Josh and Andrew are both doing well in school. Soccer season has come and gone for Andrew. He had a great season. He has really developed his skills this season and made a few goals! We had tons of rain this season, so lots of games and practices were cancelled and rescheduled. Josh still has one regular season game and a tournament left for outdoor. Indoor is in full swing, so we are pretty busy with practices and game right now.  That's about it for now. See ya all soon, hopefully!
