Around Kansas City

Kansas City skyline view from Park Hill South's stadium.

Yay! Coach Uncle Josh's soccer team beat Park Hill South in the "Kick Out Cancer" soccer challenge! And what a beautiful view of KC.

I saw Wicked with my friend Marlo, at the Kansas City Music Hall.

We went trick or treating at World's of Fun.


We enjoyed watching Ashton play volleyball at her senior night.

We love living in the Kansas City area near family! :)

Preschool Halloween Parade

Finn with his buddy Ty.

Another Policeman! Finn with Jackson.


Finn's pre-k class. Community workers.

With my handsome policeman!

This morning Finn's class had a parade thru the school for Halloween. He was so excited to see Adah and Arley on the parade. Unfortunately Cullen's class didn't come out to watch us go by. :(

Officer Finn with Arley and Adah. :)

Linda kept the boys last Friday night for us, so we could go on the Haunted Tour of Fort Leavenworth. The boys had a great fall fun night with their cousins and spent the night. They went out for pizza, carved pumpkins, cooked hot dogs and marshmallows on a bon fire. They didn't miss us!

I went on the Haunted Tour of Fort Leavenworth with my parents and Courtney and Josh. It was fun! It took over an hour and a half and they were all supposed to be true stories. :)

1st KSU game for the boys!

The boys... taking a quick break from playing football. :)

Our family at the tailgate... Bill Synder Family stadium in the background.

The boys got Willie's autograph!! So exciting!

Cullen had him sign his shirt, Finn had him sign his arm. :)

Excited to bring the boys to their first KSU football game.

Handsome K-State fans.

KSU wins! We beat West Virginia.

Lucky boys... first game AND a picture with Willie the Wildcat?

Where it all began... showing the boys where we first met. 15 years ago!!

Saint Isidore's Church... where we were married.

Last Saturday, we took the boys to the first K-State football game. We tailgated with my old college friends and their families. It was a great reunion for us all, a great trip down memory lane. We loved showing the boys around campus too. ;)

Father Cullen?

Cullen's teacher showed me this at Parent Teacher Conferences. We both got a kick out of it!

"I'll buy a jet then fly it to Jerusalem. Then I will do the stations of the cross. (On back) Then I will fly back to home."

Looks like our Notre Dame walks did a lot for Cullen. :)

Parkville Vikings Homecoming

Cullen "the Shamrock" with his banner :)

Finn "the Finisher" with his banner.

Finn's team looks so little on the NKC High School football field!

The football season is now over. Finn's team placed 2nd in the tournament. They had Cullen snapping the ball during the tournament. Crazy, he's such a skinny thing. He did well tho. Finn's coach told me- Finn's one of the smallest on his (kindergarten) team, but he's as tough as nails! He never cries and stands up for himself. Sounds about right! :)

Deanna Rose Farm

Cousin fun at the farm

Adah and Cullen petting the kids.

Milking the cow :)

Cute little Indians!

Feeding the kids bottles of milk.

Tractor races!

Hay Rack ride:)

Watching Heidi the cow give 11/2 gallons of milk.

The kids had a half day of school on Friday, so I picked all the kids up and drove down to Deanna Rose Farm. It was really fun for us all!

Gary's Berries Pumpkin Patch

Finding our way thru the corn maze.

Love my 'lil pumpkins! :)

My pumpkin bump at 29 weeks. We're getting there, but it's scary to think I'm only going to get bigger!

A few weekends ago Sean was swamped with homework, s the boys and I met Papa and Grandma at the pumpkin patch. It was a beautiful day and nice to be close enough to family to do it on a whim. :)
