Reese's 3rd Birthday

Reese turned 3 on Friday, October 17th.  

He spent the day with Daddy for his three year old checkup, and flu shot, then they met Mama and Aunt Katie at Fitz's for lunch.

We celebrated big on Saturday with family.

Reese is ALL boy and decided early he wanted a football birthday party.

 He was excited to see his cousins.

 So excited for cake time!

Ste Genevieve Homecoming

Friday was Ste Gen's Homecoming.  We love living in Ste Gen and being part of all of the traditions.

Friday was Green and White Day at school so we all wore our Ste Gen Dragon shirts.

 My Future Ste Gen Dragons!

 It rained all day, but we still got the parade in.  Dave and Reese watched the parade with our friends Grace and Doug.

 Reese loves a parade, especially with firetrucks and floats.

 I went to Dane's preschool afterschool and we got ready for the parade.

His teacher, Miss Chelsea, is student teaching this semester so she hasn't been at preschool.  Dane was so excited when he saw her come in to ride the float with them.

 Ready for the parade to begin.

Dane loves all of his preschool teachers.

 It was misting during most of the parade, but we had a lot of fun.

 Dane was especially excited to see Daddy and Reese.

 When we got done we were wet and cold.

 Our matching Leap Ahead shirts

 We all snuggled in our pjs early Friday night and had homemade pizza.  

Daddy went to the Ste Gen Bakery and got us special treats for dessert.

September Day

Every single day after school the boys want to go outside to hit golfballs.

Reese is still using the little plastic set.

 Dane got his first golf club.  It is a little long for him, but he loves it!

 Reese is taking underwear instead of diapers to Tracy's these days.  This makes us all happy!

The boys got to see their babysitter, Michaela.

 Dane's friend came and sat next to us for the Valle Homecoming Parade.  They had so much fun.

 Reese was not too happy to have to sit by mommy and daddy.

Beautiful roses from my boys!

 A friend took the boys to a Ste Gen softball game and for a picnic one evening.  Dave and I headed to the winery for dinner on the deck.

 Such a beautiful evening

 A local winery had a small balloon glow.

The boys had a great time!

 Reese loves his sleep, especially on a Monday morning.
