First Triathalon

Steven surprised me and registered us to do this Sprit Triathalon. I have never done a triathalon before and I am definitely not a swimmer. This picture was taken pre-race. I was sooooo nervous!

Steven's brithers flew in to do the race with him. So cool!

This was my dead. I had never swam that far. I had swam the distance needed in training, but not in an Olympic length pool. All I can say is, at least I didn't drown! But came close.

Whew. Finished!!!

My best friend and I!

The Richardson Racers.

The brothers went out four wheeling to have some brotherly bonding time. Looks like a blast!

This is a picture of Kailyn's bike after being artwchedcbh the golf course water sprinklers. Left such a perfect imprint.  Pretty cool!

Halloween 2014

For Family Night, we headed down to Vertuccio Farms. The kids bright their friends, Lucas & Lily Allen, and my sister (and her family) met us there. The kids had a blast riding this cow train, going down the super tall slide and bouncing in the huge bubble. We ended up doing the corn maze in the dark which added a little excitement to the adventure.Kaillyn, Kinley and Lily

Hunter is sure excited for his train ride.

Alton was excited to ride with Uncle Brett.

Beautiful Kailyn in heaven with the huge pumpkins.

The crew!

Alumni day at AT Still Unicersity (Steven's dental school)

Kailyn and Alton begged to try this ride. It rocked side to side and went all the way around. Makes me sea sick just thinking about it.

Kinley braved the slide by herself and side rolled half way down. She was not too happy about her landing.

Pumpkin Carvin' Time!

Hunter was busy carving a snake head.

Crazy Kinley kept putting the guts back inside the pumpkins.

Happy Hunter

Alton is so focused on his spider.

I got the awesome job of excavating all the guts out if the pumpkins! Yuck!!!

Kailyn carved an amazing elephant of course.

Kinley has been obsessed with Anna from Frozen the past few weeks. She just had to try on these hats we found at Bed Bath & Beyond.

Such a cute little thing!
