I was finally able to get some better pictures of Matthew our soccer star. Last game he played defense so he didn't have to do as much running! It was a great game, they lost by one point but scored 3 goals in a matter of 5 minutes during the second half. The weather was great and I can't tell you how much I love watching him play!
On Sunday we had our monthly Cecil family dinner. This time it was at Todd and Heidi's. Heidi always goes above and beyond, even being 8 months pregnant. We had chili, cornbread and made homemade rootbeer. She even made sugar cookies and had all 16 of the kids decorate them. So the pics are of the decorating fun! Jeffrey is wearing the red mask for some reason.
Just so everyone doesn't think that my husband and I always go out on these wonderful, hip, exciting dates, this post will prove you all wrong. Tonight our date was exciting trip to Target with a stop at the Starbucks for hot chocolate. Anytime we can get away, even just for an hour, is worth it. Thankfully Matthew is old enough and responsible enough to babysit for a little bit. So we were able to take off for an hour for some time away. It's important to try to find time to be together, even if it's at Target. We got a chance to talk and hang out and I must admit, Target WITHOUT kids is even better!
Our ward celebrated Halloween a little bit early for some reason. We had our trunk-or-treat last Friday. It started at 6:00 and we were at Targay at 4:30 rushing to get costumes and candy. Talk about last minute. Thankfully Zak had the super cute giraffe handed down from his cousin Noah. Matty was creative and made his own Zombie Skater costume (by himself I might add). So luckily we grabbed the last Buzz and found a goth pirate for Livvy. And finally it is starting to feel like fall! Hopefully I'll get to post more Halloween pics from actual Halloween. Having it early just means eating candy longer!
