Soccer, Bowling, Guns and Roses, and lots and lots of leaves!

Just trying to capture my two pink ladies with both looking at the camera and both smiling. It's too stinkin' hard. They both are still too cute though.

At Delaney's last soccer game of the season we captured a team picture. Delaney is the tall one standing on the right.  Not all of the kids made it into the pic but here are most of them. I must say that Delaney ended up being the best girl on the team this year! YAY!!!!!!

Ooh---that face.

"I turn you into a FROG!"

My little running soccer girl.

Delaney and I went to Lillian's 4th birthday party. Lillian is the  big sister to Trinity (a.k.a. "bean") who is a little girl I have been seeing for OT for about 1 1/2 years now. I have become good friends with her mom Cathy and love both little girls a lot. Lillian had a princess bowling party that was so much fun!

Delaney LOVED bowling. She stood there the whole time handing balls to other people and playing over and over again.

Lillian had a princess birthday cake and was so excited about singing the birthday song.

Delaney was Lillian's buddy at the party, of course helping her open all of her presents.

Randy made a big leaf pile in the backyard and the girls LOVED jumping into it. Who needs toys?

Randy made a big leaf pile in the yard and the girls loved jumping into it.

That night we had our friend English's surprise birthday party at our friend Niki and Mark's house. English had no clue and thought the 6 of us were going out to dinner. Little did she know that a big group of her friends and family were waiting to surprise her! The theme was Guns 'n Roses and Niki had their whole house decorated with heavy metal albums and buttons, etc....Here is the cake that Steve had made with the Appetite for Destruction Theme. Rock on!

Randy designed a poster for English with English's face put in where Slash was. So here is Axl Rose and  English/Slash and the real English with her new poster.

A big group of English's family and friends surprised her for her birthday with a Guns 'n Roses surprise party with fun decorations and festivities. She was so surprised!

Niki and Sarah with their tats. There were temporary tattoos on every table in their house and I must say that we all got a little excited about placing them EVERYWHERE. The next time I had to remove quite a few. It's good they were temporary!!

Randy upped the fun with leaves and added a leaf pile to the bottom of the slide on the playset.

Randy expanded the leaf fun by placing the leaf pile underneath the slide. This added a whole other dimension to it and the girls loved sliding down into the leaves. The fun increased again when Maya rode on Delaney's lap down the slide. Woo hoo!!

These pics look like mini-WWF but really Maya had a blast with Delaney throwing her into the leaf pile.

After an exciting time playing in the leaves it was time to chill in the swing.

Then it was time to chill on Tyson's new dog bed. He completely tore up his old one and this one was the mac daddy.

This little shithead, I mean squirrel, tore up all of our pumpkins. It started with the Halloween pumpkins where princess and witch pumpkin would start to have limbs missing from the chewing and then once Halloween was gone we had little pumpkins out for fall decorations and the little shit moved on to them. I guess in the end catching him was pretty cute as he was nibbling away but when I would come home each day and see yet another little pumpkin missing it was starting to tick me off!
