Dinner for Two

Destiny and Preston decided that they would make Dave and I dinner one night. This is what they prepared...and apple, a sucker and a package of rockets. MMM mmmm mmmmm... just what we were hoping for.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.....

The day the French/Roach household has been waiting for ARRIVED !
Not the most spectacular snowfall but one that will be remembered by us forever.
Preston's Very First Snow Sighting.... He was so excited. I think I was too. I was at work and called Dave at 6:15 AM to let him know it was snowing, I didn't want him to show Preston until I was on the other end of the phone. I called and told Preston to look outside. "It's snowing, it is finally snowing. I finally see my very first snow" " Can we have a snowball fight?" He went from window to window watching it fall. When he got off the bus from School he dropped his bookbag in the middle of the yard and started exploring. There was just a light dusting on the ground but to him it was a white fluffy playground. I caught up with him on the deck with my camera, He was just scooping up as much as he could and throwing it up in the air...make sure you click on this picture to enlarge it so that you can actually see the adorable look on his face.

He enjoyed watching the tracks all around the yard that he could make... oh yeah, it was a really neat snow, if you looked closely you could see the snowflakes in the actual shape of snowflakes, they were so cool.

I asked Preston if he wanted to make a Snow Angel, he said sure, so I proceeded to tell him how to make one...however I was quickly interrupted and told that he already knew how. I asked how do you know, he learned it from tv.

...and by golly he does know how to make a Snow Angel

Jack Sparrow and the Equestrian

they were sooooo excited coming home from school on the friday knowing that tonite they could go trick or treating, the day had finally arrived. We started getting dressed around 3:30. We headed to Kellys to go canvassing houses with Zach, that is our tradition so far.

Pirates and Horse Riders

Trick or Treat

Destiny was finished after about 1/2 hour. As soon as she got playdough she wanted to go home to play with. So she went back to Kelly's house with Marc to help him hand out treats. I talked Preston into finishing the rest of the route. He got a little tired at times and layed down on a few front lawns, but we made it !

Alot more than trick or treating

arts and crafts

Fun with Lunches...again

They picked these pumpkins on their school trip to the Country Pumpkin...watch the transformation from mere pumpkins to Jack-O-Lanterns

So proud of their accomplishments
