Cornbelly's 2012

10/18/12
There are places closer than this to our house, but we've really liked this specific one and decided to make it a tradition for our family.  My mom came too and we had a great time.  Of course part of that tradition is snapping a few photos too...

I love these boys.

Let's not be deceitful, Max wasn't happy the whole night...

 

I love how half way through this clip (of a little hay bale maze) Max stops to dance for just a minute.  Cutie.

The boys each picked one treat...

One last thing before leaving.  The giant wavy slide.

Until next year!...

Riding bikes

10/14/12  Three video clips of the boys riding bikes.  The first two are of Noah though because this day he just made the decision that the training wheels were coming off his bike (he would not hear of it before this day).  We were proud.  When he is ready he always excels at the things he has put his mind to.

September 2012 Wrap Up

9/1/12
A picture I snapped of Max on one of our visits to the planetarium.

9/5/12
Lincoln's first day of preschool!  Can you tell he's excited?

Video clip of Max running around at Mark's parent's house.  The boys love, love, love their yard:

And a couple minutes of watching Max eat a chocolate donut, because it's those subtle little sounds and facial expressions that are so cute that we manage to somehow forget...

9/19/12

Lincoln wanted me to take a picture of him with his daily eye patch on.

9/27/12

Just some pictures I snapped while hanging out in the front yard with friends.  First of all a picture of my mums that I planted inside a pumpkin:

Max on Lincoln's bike...

Max and Trey...

 I love Max's little golden locks.

Crew's serious little expression kills me.  Adorable.

Crew with his mommy (and my friend) Natalie.  Such a cute photo.

The boys exploring our pumpkin selection on the front porch.

Farewell one of my favorite months of the year.

Noah's last fall soccer game

9/26/12  Noah's coach this season wasn't able to end up coaching, so several parents stepped up to take turns each coaching a game.  Mark's turn was the last game of the season, so you'll see him in several of these pictures coaching these 6 year old boys.

First though, a tough-guy Gatorade photo...

Mark letting the boys know not to just make a wall when the other team is getting ready to kick off...

Goal celebration...

Sideline cuteness.

Grabbing a photo at half-time...

Post-game congratulations from Dad.

Noah and Isaac.

Mark wanted to take some time to talk to Noah about all the progress he's seen with Noah's game over the season and the things he's doing well.

Noah's biggest 15 month old fan.

Wrapping of fall soccer for Lincoln

A couple clips from early September 2012:

I love how he always waits for the whistle (to kick or throw in)...and his celebrations after a goal is scored are always cute and entertaining:

The little boys "congratulating" each other after the game is always amusing too:

Now for a slew of photos from Lincoln's last game of the season 9/25/12.  I wanted to snap a couple pictures of Lincoln before heading over to his field.  He is so dang cute.

And of course Linc wanted a couple pictures in the poses of his own choosing.  The "action shot"...

 

And a picture with his Gatorade...

Time for warm-up drills...

A quick team picture...

And a couple pictures of one of their cutest spectators...

Game time!  Which you can tell that this 4 year old always took very seriously by the airplane pose as he flew around the field...

Gotta love bunch-ball at this age.

Lincoln loved being able to kick in or throw in the ball, and wasn't shy to advocate for himself to his coach.

Good season, buddy.  I think we enjoyed watching you almost as much as you did playing!
