Cleveland Browns

Brant wants to be Johnny Manizel for Halloween. But we told him he couldn't be an Aggie he could only be a Cleveland Brown.

He is so excited. But when the uniform came in he just looked at the back of the box and wanted to be 1 million other teams.

Halloween decorations

Today we got down the Halloween decorations. The boys love to decorate for Halloween. Slade asked me if it was more fun to get candy by trick-or-treating or to be at home passing out the candy. He said he thinks it would be so fun to pass out candy. He is such an old soul.

Brant can write his name!

We were playing with sidewalk chalk and Brant decided to show me he could write his name. He drew a B and then wrote the rest of his name. I was so excited. He told me that his r looked like a seven. Then I was talking to his teacher at church and she said it was so funny because he would his friend, Juliette to write his name for him every time. But, she always wrote his r with a capital R and he did not like that. I can't believe that he is already getting girls to do stuff for him...

Homecoming Parade

It was the annual homecoming parade in Aledo. The boys were so excited. We even let Slade skip baseball practice that night. When we got to the high school, Slade and Brant were so excited to see the floats. They stuck their heads out the window and yelled and screamed. They especially loved all the candy they got!

Friendly competition

Brant played his really good friend Jake at T-ball this past weekend. He was so excited to see Jake, I think he thought Jake was there to see him play.

They were so cute, every time they ran past each other they would wave to each other and say, " hi Brant" or  "hi Jake."

This weekend Slade played shortstop, and he got his first pop fly! We are so proud of him!

Catcher

Slade got to play catcher this past week in baseball. He looked just like Billy.

It was the craziest game, we battled back from being very behind. It was the last inning and we had two little kids strikeout. Slade was on second and his buddy Carter had just scored. It was now 12 to 12. Our good hitter got up and hit a line drive. And would you not believe, the line drive hit Slade in the foot. That got us the third out and we ended up tying. Slade was so sad.

Fun times in the bleachers

When we go to football games we sit by all of Brant's friends in the stands. They have so much fun playing with each other and I think they disturb everyone around us, but I don't care. 

The student section is close to us and they started throwing streamers. All the little kids got a streamer and started acting like ninjas.

Slade just wants a friend to be close, so he sat with Cayden this week.

Also, they love to playing football under the bleachers. Brant tries to tackle everyone!
