World Series 2010
Jason received early birthday presents. He was able to attend a game for each of the series of post season play at the Ballpark. He even got to attend 2 games of the World Series. Here are some of his pictures. Happy birthday Jason!

Finally a Santa Photo!
So most of you have seen last year's Santa fiasco picture...
About a month ago Jackson started drafting his wish list on the Lego website. At that point we kept telling him that he would have to give Santa the list otherwise he wouldn't know what he wants. So on Thursday we took the opportunity to go to Bass Pro to visit Santa. We did it to avoid the crowds but realized that it could take multiple visits to actually get a Santa picture. Jenna went first and told him want she wants.
Then he walks up and gives Santa his two page list and barely talked to him, but he took a picture. Progress!
And even took another picture with Jenna!
It was at that point that we realized some of our friends were doing the same thing. The boys even went and took at picture together. What a difference a year makes.

Jennifer's Birthday
The week of my birthday I had the opportunity to be off from work. I didn't log in to anything work related so it really was a vacation. My goal was to purge through several bins of things before the holidays are upon us. So I was working but I tried to do something for myself each day. I had dessert, walked places instead of driving, got my toes done, got my hair done, went to the movies in the middle of the day with Jason and slept in a few days.
We went to dinner on Macaroni Grill and my kids were good which is really the only gift I needed but Jackson scored me some free chocolate cake! Jenna took the very close up picture so I have like four chins.
The kids drew me birthday cards while we waited for our food.

Scarecrow Day
Last week Jackson's Kindergarten class celebrated Scarecrow Day. Since Jenna had the same celebration when she was in Kindergarten we already had the shirt and supplies or at least so I thought. Now I was off work that week so I did clean out my craft / sewing supplies. So needless to say I did have to purchase some more items. Here is a picture of my two Kindergarten scarecrows.

Halloween 2010
This year I was alone during Halloween while Jason dressed up as a Ranger fan at the World Series. Jenna was an 80's girl with full on crimped hair in a scrunchy. While she was getting ready there were a lot of questions of why and all I had was because it was the fad back then.
Jackson was Wolverine complete with claws. We thought that we would have him kick a soccer ball as an inside joke but decided against it.
We started well before dark but surprisingly it takes forever to walk the neighborhood. We had a blast though! Happy Halloween everyone!

It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!
Last Friday we went to the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown at Bass Pro. The store had masks to color, free pictures with the Peanuts Gang and trick-or-treating around the store. Which is more challenging than it sounds. We then treated ourselves to dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. It didn't hurt that both the kids were free.
Heroes
This month the third graders performed at the PTA meeting. The theme was Heroes. She got to hold the Pacific sign for "God Bless the USA" song. Very cute program.
Afterwards Jackson wanted to show us his artwork. One of his drawings was selected to go on the Art bulletin board and was the first one shown on the morning announcements. As you can see this is a self-portrait and he even drew his backpack on his drawing.
Our family project was to color and decorate a pumpkin as a family. So Jenna colored, Jason glue the pom poms on and I helped with the stickers. Of course, my son with the mathematical mind (shocker since I loved math as it caters to my type A personality) had to have everything in a pattern.
