A Week of Fun

Well, the week started off with the dedication of Lauren at church. It was a very special time for our family. She slept for most of it, but we still managed to get the snapshot just before she fell asleep :)



Monday we went to Chuck-E-Cheese with the kids. They have been wanting to go for a long time. Truthfully, I'm not sure who had more fun, us or the kids.

As you can see, Katherine was very good at winning tickets. It was a great family time and, believe it or not, it was NOT crowded.


Regan and Benjamin (aka Tinker Bell and Buzz Lightyear) then got to go to a party at their gymnastics where they had free play, games, pumpkin decorating, and a costume contest. Regan won best costume for the girls. Benjamin's favorite part was getting to "fall in style".


Lauren was dressed as piglet for Halloween and Katherine was Minnie Mouse.



We did go trick or treating even though it was raining, but we did not stay out for long. It was nearly impossible to keep everyone under an umbrella. They were just too excited about all that candy.

Because everyone was wet and cold, we went to Jenny's house for some hot chocolate. There we talked and watched a little Tennessee football.



And finally, we went to "the fire place" for some rice. Wasabi's is Benjamin's favorite place to eat because he likes the show that goes along with it. The kids like to practice using their chopsticks here as well. This will come in very hand soon!
