PrEtZeL MaKiNg TiMe!!

The boys made chocolate dipped pretzels for Halloween treats last night. They had so much fun dipping and rolling their pretzels in chocolate and sprinkles. It was a HUGE mess... but worth the memories. Cole was too cute when he asked if I thought he could take some to Mrs. Heald for her snack. He loves her or he would never think about sharing his goodies. Of course... we put a baggie to the side for us. :)

PuMpKiN PaTcH 2009

We had an awesome day at the pumpkin patch this past Saturday. We went to the Pumpkin Patch in Celina with our favorite families: the Van Dykes, Thompsons, Grimes, and Amayas. I love these people and I love even more that our kiddos love each other. With our family not living close to us, we adopted these peeps as aunts, uncles, and cousins. Carson cries for Rich Van Dyke.... he loves Mr Wich. :) The kiddos had a blast, feeding the animals (all but Allie), riding on a hayride, playing around, eating lunch, and taking lots of pictures. Kirsten and Val had to leave early because of Cristian and Lance's soccer game, but we all had a blast with what time we spent together.

Baseball Time!!

Cole has played baseball since he was 4, but this is the 1st season that Neil has coached his team. They are both loving it. I think Neil missed his calling by not going to school to be a coach. He is so wonderful with the boys and has the best 2 dug out moms EVER!! ;) No really.. I am very proud if my Fortenberry boys young and old... well.. older. Lol. Cole got the game ball on an awesome night. He tagged someone out and hit a double and a triple. Way to go Colio!!! Cole is enjoying this season so much more than he has in the past and I owe it all to Neil for making it so much fun for the boys.
