Happy Halloween

from shaydon and slater
like our make shift cowboy hat (it was a little too big)


It wouldn't be Halloween if we didn't go to the other Gerratts for some trick-or-treating and picture taking. I can't believe that I didn't get a pix of aunt Yvonne in her Witch costume. Did you know that both Zack and Nic at age 3 was a cowboy too? Keeping up the tradition.
Thanks guys for a FUN night!!

today was shaydon's preschool trip to linder farms. we were a little late thanks to me. sort of forgot where it was. he had lots of fun being with his class, climbing on "tractor tires" picking a pumpkin, petting the horses, chasing everyone in the maze, making snow angles in the corn box and eating popcorn and juice. he is getting so big we love you shaydon.

Grape Juice

I learned how to make grape juice from mimi!!! She was GREAT to help teach me. I am very proud of our 20 qt. Even though it took us all day. We also made some fruit leather from the left overs. Delicious. (I remember both mimi and grandma Del making this for me when I was little, such a treat.) Also thanks to Rebecca for picking and getting me the grapes. What a GREAT friend. I LOVE that I inherited a juicer and dehydrator. Thanks mimi and dad!! I love when I go to Burley and hang out with them. Mimi and I have such GREAT conversation, shopping at stokes, filling the car up with gas and showing her how to email and lots of fun!! She is a GREAT babysitter too. She loves Slater or maybe it's just babies either way we LOVE it!! Thanks for a Fun Long weekend we sure enjoyed our selves. I am GRATEFUL for a grandma who loves and help us so much!! Thanks for all you do. You will never know how much we LOVE you!!!

PAL football

shaydon & zack

zack catching the ball


huddle up

watching the game

he sat really still looking for zack #4

GO EAGLES!!!
We must of brought some luck today.
Because the eagle have not scored a touchdown this year.
But they had 2 today!!!
Shaydon loved yelling at Zack from the sidelines.
He would repeat whatever Eric would say.
He was distracting Zack from the game.
Shaydon was really upset when the game was over and
they stoped playing he wanted them to play all day i guess!
He brought Zack a propel for playing such a GREAT game.
GO ZACK!!!
(sorry lily we missed your soccer game next week for sure)
