Halloween

Since I had to work on Halloween, we dressed up and went to a party at one of my friend's house on Friday night. Here are some pictures of my spooks on Halloween Eve!!

Rylan is a spooky werewolf!!

Isn't Talon the cutest monkey you have ever seen??

Here is our best attempt to get all the kids together for a picture at the party. This is only about half of the kids too!!

Here we are at the party. That was about how excited Rylan was to be around all of those little kids!!

Some of my friends and I dressed up at work for Halloween! It was hilarious!! When I got home I decided to take Rylan trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. It was fun and I was even mistaken for a 10 year old girl!! Here is why....(go ahead and laugh).....

On another note, we had our last football game of the season last night! We were ranked 3rd and we played the 2nd ranked team. We had already played them twice, and they had absolutely killed us both times we played!! It was really bittersweet. Rylan has worked so hard and is so competitive for his team. Not to be a bragging mom, but he has practically carried his team through the season. Last night we were down by 7 and there were 25 seconds left and we had the ball at the 45. In flag football they start at the 45. Another kid on our team ran the ball for a gain of about 5 yards, but was also able to run almost all of the time off the clock. So, with seconds left, our team hands off the ball to Rylan and he takes of running and juking through the defense. He had just broken out for the end zone when he started to stumble and his legs just gave out! He hadn't sat out all game! He stumbled over his own feet and fell. :( He knew right away what had happened and immediately started crying. So was Mom!! Fortunately one of our coaches who knows how competitive Rylan is and how much he understands the game, ran out on the field and scooped Rylan up telling him how good he did and how proud he was of him! Ky was able to get to Rylan first, and said that Rylan was crying and the coach had tears in his eyes!! It is amazing how proud of Rylan Ky and I are. Ky can't even tell Rylan how proud of him he is without getting tears in his eyes and a cracking in his voice. It is amazing what our kids bring out in Ky! It only makes me realize how lucky our little family and I are to have him in our lives!! It also makes me love him more everyday! Until next time....
