Hayride!

Last weekend (Oct. 3) we had our fall hayride. We began the day by joining the Mills family in celebrating the 2nd birthdays of Molly and Ben. Afterwards, Jenny and Matthew, and Kara, Tim and their 3 boys joined us for a hayride around our place. We had 7 little boys - all 7 years or younger - it was great! Below is a picture of our "fancy" lights :) These are Christmas lights - but they remind me of San Antonio...

All of the boys playing on the swingset:

The mothers of all of these little boys:


This picture has everyone except Ben. Ben wanted to drive the tractor, not ride in the trailer!


All of the boys are in this picture, but Matthew is hidden behind Ben. My battery died after this picture, so this is it....



They all had fun on the hayride and then we stood around the fire roasting marshmellows until around 8:30. There's just something about fire and little boys....

After all the company had gone home, we went in for baths. I just want to mention that I have never seen a shirt as dirty as Kyler's. I had to wash his T-shirt so that he could wear it to basketball practice the next day. I used half a bottle of spray-n-wash. It was equally dirty on the front and the back! How do little boys manage to get so dirty???

We bought a blu-ray player and had purchased "Monsters vs. Aliens" so we watched the movie before going to bed. By the time those little boys hit the bed they were out! It's the sign of a good day when they hit the bed and never say a word....
