playing catchup

How do you squeeze two full months in one blog? Well it is going to look a bit like this.....

BROWN FAMILY REUNION-Sponge Bob style
My Dad is so funny!

Jett on the obstacle course

The family rocking "Love Shack"

The music moved Jett-he danced every song

Rex was less moved




This is one of my favorite things. Who wouldn't love it, 3 fun filled days of camping, good food, fun, & great family. Who wouldn't love it?!
Crazy hair day at school.
the funny thing was that the day before the boys thought it was crazy hair day and we made Rex's hair into an afro. When we got to school no one else had crazy hair. Rex was so embarrassed that he dropped to the floor of the car and smoothed it all down. The back was still sticking straight up but what you can't see won't hurt you (or embarrass you).  

Basketball

The boys started basketball on a team that has been playing together for 3 years. Needless to say they don't get a lot of "play time". They love it though and have no idea that they are not the best on the team. Jett will get so excited that he will randomly turn cartwheels.

Fall!?
It finally got cool enough to take the gang out of the house. We went with some of our favorite friends to the zoo. We had a great time even though we lost Rex for about 15 minutes (he was playing hide and seek).
  
Now I am ready!
It took him 15 months to come around but Asher has decided to try out walking! He started walking at the beginning of September but it wasn't quite what he was hoping for so he stopped. It wasn't until the beginning of October that he decided to stick with it. We are so proud!
Real Fall  
For fall break we got to go to the mountains and see what Fall is supposed to look like. We miss our Nebraska season changes this time of year. 



Wherever Asher goes he has got at least one car in his hand and he is usually making a car sound to go with it.

Halloween
(pumpkin carving)

Every year we tell Jett he has to taste the pumpkin "guts" so far he has always done it. It is our only Halloween tradition.

Ryan was pretty proud of his Suns pumpkin



 (The school's costume parade)

Halloween parties
party # 3 at our friend Lore's house. Always so fun!
 Kids eating donuts off a string.
Asher the Garden Gnome





Party #4 this is my first attempt at a Halloween party.



This was our Halloween party with my Mom. Everyone had to dress like a monster and then their place setting was decorated like their monster. It turned out so cool.

Danii as the Bride of Frankenstein & Jett as the Phantom of the Opera
Korbi as the Mummy, Merrill is a werewolf and Rex is Frankenstein.
Jett and Korbi watching Thriller (Jett loves it)

We also had a fun party at Granny's house this year but this Mama forgot to bring her camera.








There you have it two months in one blog!

Fun to see pics of everything you have been up to! Jett and Rex are looking so big and grown up! I think Porter and Asher would have a blast together. Porter just starting walking as well the last few weeks and he loves to drive cars all over! Hope everything is going well! Miss ya! Fun Halloween parties as well!
