Finally...SNOW!

Today we woke up to snow covering the ground. Tyler went out to help Daddy shovel.  Hopefully we will keep this snow until Christmas!

Tyler Dancing

Tyler recently has starting busting out some interesting dance moves. The theme song to Thomas the Train usually gets him going. He also is now a fan of singing and dancing to Jingle Bells. Hopefully we'll be able to get that on video this season.

We are starting to get into the Christmas spirit here, but it is hard when we still have grass in the yard. Here's to hoping we get a big snow before Christmas!

Random Pictures

Here are some pictures that Kathy took with her camera this fall. As you can see, Tyler is a straight up Goose!

New ski helmet

We got Tyler a ski helmet for his upcoming season of ski lessons. He is a big fan and can't wait for January.

It's a picture of a snowboarding polar bear... he was very excited!

Halloween

Tyler had so much fun on Halloween this year. Kathy took him trick or treating around our neighborhood while the sun was still out, and he loved it! He would ring the doorbell, say trick or treat, and then say thank you after he got his candy. He went for about an hour, and then got tired. We stopped by the Peppemeiers to witness the crush of kids on their block. Tyler loved helping Kelly pass out candy and wish everyone a Happy Halloween!

Our little monkey! His costume was super cozy and he loved it.

More Fun at the Pumpkin Patch

Tyler has been a lucky boy this month and has gone to Sweet Pickins pumpkin patch 3 times! He loves playing in the sandbox there with all of the big diggers and going on the tractor ride. Good thing he has his own tractor and sandbox, or else I never would have gotten him out of there

Riding the giant trike.... I actually had to pedal and have him ride on my lap... my legs were burning after a lap around the track.

Pumpkin Patch

A recent visit to the local pumpkin patch proved to be tons of fun for Tyler.  From the jumphouse to fishing and mini golf, it was a great outing!
