Davin is ready for fall. Notice the short sleeves. We have had the most fabulous weather this fall. It is georgous and I wish it was like this all year!

Aubree and Lyndi at tumbling/tramp class. They LOVE it. Lyndi is getting really good at her sommersaults and Aubree is working on back handsprings.

Quote of the week: Kayla has learned the song "50 Nifty United States" in school, so we've all been trying to learn it. We sang it about 50 times on the way home the other day and then we decided to see how far each person could get. I made it to Minnesota, Lyndi made it to Connecticut, and Aubree made it to Indiana. Then Erin said "my turn!" so we told her to go ahead. She said, "Alabama...um...what's next mom?"

5 Minute Chocolate Cake

This is my kids new favorite treat. 5 minute chocolate cake. You make it in a mug and microwave it. If you want the recipe, just click on "Matthews Family" on my links.

Halloween Preview

We went to Grandma's house for Deer Hunt Weekend. The boys went camping and us girls entertained the kids. They picked pumpkins, painted them, then dressed in their costumes and paraded to the Great-Grandparents house.

Quote of the Week

Erin is learning about the earth at joyschool. Yesterday she brought home an eggplant that she'd picked out of a garden. She was quite proud of it. I cooked it up and served it with dinner. She took one bite and labeled it "yucky". I reminded her that this was the eggplant she'd picked herself and brought home. She looked at me with big eyes, shaking her head, and said, "I didn't know it would taste like this. I would NOT have brought it home!"
