New Best Friends

With Ryan at school a majority of the day, Dylan and Rebecca become new best friends. They play all sorts of things together but they have the most fun when they are getting into trouble together. Check out some of the trouble and fun they've been having recently...

Fall Flag Football

The boys had another great season doing flag football. They won some and they lost some but all in all they enjoyed themselves and learned new skills. Ryan is now on the Kindergarten and 1st Grade team. Dylan played on the preschool age team. Ryan really loves football and I seem him continuing to play each year. Dylan however has days when he loves it and days when he doesn't, so we may try him in baseball in the spring instead of football next year.


Here is a picture of Ryan's team the Bulls. (Dylan's team picture hasn't been taken yet but I'll post it once we have taken it.)

Halloween Festivities!

We were lucky enough to find lots of things to do here in Midland this October even being new to the area. Check out this fun newsletter for all the details of our month!

Fair fun!

On Friday we went to the Permian Basin Fair in Odessa. We expected it to be similar to the San Juan County fair so we were in for a great surprise when we arrived and realized it was more like the New Mexico State Fair. There was several shows, lots of bands, a huge (affordable) carnival, exhibits, animals and so much more. We went opening night so we also enjoyed some fireworks at the end of the night. We were there for a total of 5 hours but every minute was full of fun for everyone. Now we all can't wait to go back next year. Check out this slide show that highlights some pictures from the fair.

Check ups!

After dropping Ryan off at school on Monday we took Rebecca and Dylan to a new Pediatrician here in Midland for a check up. We had to wait a while for them to be seen and the kids made the most of that time by taking turns pushing each other around on the doctors chair. Rebecca was laughing so hard when she was pushing Dylan...it was so funny to watch.
