An Alligator and a Muffin

Some More Soccer

We are in full swing of soccer season here, and Luken has had games most Saturdays. Both sets of grandparents were able to attend games during their visits! I brought my camera to the most recent game. :)

Luken is #8

Here, he's dribbling towards the goal...

He's so close..... and then.... Grandma stands up. ;)

Aw, man, so close, but the ball bounced off the goal.

More playing.

Halftime!

A teammate.

Another teammate, ready to kick!

Keeley and Grandpa were very busy on the sidelines, playing patty cake! :)

Great game, Barcelona!

More Presents!

After my dad and step-mom flew back home, Todd's parents arrived for a visit the next day! It was time for celebration #2! That means more presents, you know!

Grandma and Grandpa had presents for both kids, and they were kind of big, so we went for the "close your eyes" approach!

Surprise!!

An American Girl Bitty Baby changing table for Keeley.
A skateboard and a Nintendo DS game for Luken.
Cool dude!

Lucky, happy kiddos!

Luken is 8!

October 17, 2011 marked the day our little boy turned EIGHT!

Here's the big guy, ready to tear into some presents!

Since Grandpa and Gram were visiting, and Daddy was at work, Luken got to open some presents after school!

And Keeley was given a new book, too!

Grandpa reads.

Luken Legos.

Soon after, we headed to Luken's martial arts class, followed by dinner at Luken's favorite restaurant. (Earlier in the day, we had brought McDonalds lunch for Luken at school, and he got to share cupcakes with his class in the afternoon. Fun stuff!)

When we got home again later that evening, Luken opened his presents from Mom and Dad.
