Happy Halloween!!

Since Uncle Buck was getting married on Nov 1st...we spent Halloween night doing wedding rehersal. The kids brought along their costumes to wear and had lots of fun entertaining everyone.

They were so cute walking down the aisle! If I had grabbed the camera sooner, I would've caught them holding hands!

Wecome baby Ella!

Jen and Keith welcomed baby Ella Grace Fulton into the world on October 30th. She weighed in at a very healthy 8lbs 10oz!!
She's quite a cutie pie!!

I stopped by the hospital on my way home from a water sampling trip for work...Rylie was a little upset that she didn't get to go with me to the hospital!

Pretty girls!

White October

We already had our first significant snowfall of the year! :) :) These were taken on Oct. 28th. We had a little snow the previous morning, and about 5" the following morning! :)

Drummer cow Cole!

Cole is a natural drummer!!!!

Rylie's first halloween!

Grandma Sue sent along this picture from Rylie's first Halloween!! She was such a little (chunky) cutie! In the photo she was just two months old! Can't believe she's already 4!

Grampa, grannie, ballerina..and the cow

Even though we didn't actually wear our masks to the party...we at least got our picture taken! Curtis and I were an "older" couple and Rylie was a ballerina...and of course, Cole was a cow!

I had to put all three of these...just to show the "graceful movements" of our little ballerina! :)

Happy Birthday Lincoln and Jamie!

We went to celebrate Lincoln and Jamie's (he works w/Curtis) Birthdays on Sunday afternoon...lots of fun!
Happy Birthday!!

Jamie (23) and Lincoln (2)!

Cole the cow

Cole loves his cow costume and had lots of fun at the party...being a cow!

I thought only "pigs" drove cop motorcycles! :)

Picking up all the goodies from the pinata!

Cheese anyone??

Opening presents!

Rylie and Cole really had a good time helping Lincoln open his presents! (Amanda..his mommy is helping out too).

Pumpkin carving

We FINALLY got a chance to carve our pumpkins...now that I'm working...we're not all four home at the same time very often! So, after a busy Sunday (hay riding, halloween/bday partying) we got busy getting our pumpkins ready for Halloween. The kids had fun helping and Cole didn't want to get his hands 'yucky' but enjoyed watching his daddy! Curtis carved one and I did the other one...and Rylie really had fun "drawing" on them!

Cole got a kick out of watching the knife go through the pumpkin.

Rylie wanted to draw on them....so we gave in and let her draw on the "back" of the pumpkins.

Cole checking out the pumpkin that daddy carved...it's a "Happy pumpkin w/sparkly eyes" just like the kids wanted!

Rylie drew our family portrait on the back of one of the pumpkins!! It's funny that she still draws Cole as a baby...he's just as big as she is now!

Cole and his Pappy

I thought this was a really good one of Cole w/his Pappy!

Cole has decided that he's 7 now...anytime you ask how old he is...he says "7"!

Hay ride fun!

On Sunday (10/26) we went on a hay ride w/friends from Pappy and Meme's church.

Rylie wore a "seatbelt" - a strap that was holding down the hay bales...and she held hands and hung out with the "girls" the entire ride.

Cole had fun 'hanging w/his Pappy and chewing on some hay!

The O'Neal boys enjoying the hay ride.

Happy Birthday Gabrielle!

On Sunday we went out to my Aunt Cookie's for Gabrielle's very first birthday party! The kids had a lot of fun playing with the other kids and were worn out on the way home :)

Cute-pie Gabby!

Just when they were talking about having Gabrielle blow out the candles..Cole started blowing on the other birthday cake!

Yummy cake!

Gabby had her very own birthday cake...which she enjoyed VERY much! ;)

Little boys...

Cole really had a lot of fun playing with Devin. Leave it to two little boys to try to shove Dora into the ball machine!
