Decorating the Christmas Tree

Watching Daddy Ref

Fancy Shoes

A few weeks ago we visited Uncle Harvey's and Aunt Vonne's house in Richland Center MN.  Riley found some fancy shoes in the toy box!

Typical "Brother" Response

Typical response to watching a rival open coveted birthday gifts.  Oh, life is not fair!

Halloween

These are the only Halloween photos that turned out- our camera was acting up.  Like usual, Reagan does not dress up and Riley had the cutest Monkey costume but insisted on wearing his "fire hat".  So, I guess he was a monkey firefighter??  Reagan participated by driving Riley around the neighborhood, door to door, in the gator.  Everyone had a good time which is what really matters.

Halloween Day

R&R rode the Gator around and around and around the yard on Halloween Day.  Reagan drives and Riley is perfectly happy to ride along.  Perhaps having two boys close in age isn't such a bad idea...

Pony Rides



 Grandma Menne & Dad took Reagan and Riley to the ScareCrow Fesitval at Emma Krumbees.  They rode a "train", played in a large pile of hay, rode ponys and went on tractor rides.  Mom stayed home and waited for the washing machine repair guy to come... yet again.

R&R at school

A few pictures from a family event at Reagan's preschool a few weekends ago.  Riley looked as if he belonged in the 4 year old class.  Also, he insists on wearing his hat backwards...

First Day of Preschool

Notice all of the parents w/cameras



The first day of preschool was rather hard... for mom.  Reagan saw his teacher, Mrs. Julie, walked over to her and didn't look back.  I was fairly certain that he would be the one child that cried the entire time- even though we had been assured that this has never happened. Well, I anxiously waited in my office for the phone to ring; it didn't.  As I sat in my office (crying) I could not grasp the fact that my first born was attending preschool (and that he didn’t die without me). How could this be?  I knew this would happen – but not to me…

End of the 2010 Summer
