"BOO!" to you, too!

Once again, under the cloak of darkness, the Great Pumpkin of Carl Junction bestowed upon us the gifts of the season ...

Not only does the Great Pumpkin have good taste in candy, she is incredibly creative and endlessly talented.

We love you!

I just wanted to say thanks to everybody who checks us out on this blog.  October 21 was the one year anniversary of  lands7.blogspot.com and I've loved sharing our goings-ons with all of you.  Happy Halloween to everyone ~ have fun & be safe. 
xoxo, Ann

Little Halloween on the Prarie






Today was so much fun.  We had our first preschool Halloween party.  There was a quck parade around the playground and then we went inside for face painting, pin-the-nose-on-the pumpkin, and had a pumpkin relay.  We sang songs and made a giant spider web with yarn.  We got lots of candy, too!  We love Halloween!

Soccer Weekend in Kansas City

This weekend Kayla, Becca Wilson, & I traveled to KC for the Missouri Mule Tournament.
We had a super fun time!

We did kooky hair stuff!  (Specifically those are game-ready "Intimidation Buns" ~ they look pretty scary, huh?)



We did the YMCA at Joe's Crab Shack!



We got a cool Pink Panther balloon animal!



We went to the Wizards soccer game against DC United!



OH YHEA~  We played some AWESOME soccer, too!



I'm talking three shut-outs!



TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS!



GO PINK, GO!!!



Oh yhea ... and we got dirty ... REALLY DIRTY!!!



The tournament finals were cancelled on Sunday afternoon due to a huge storm that also shut down the KC Chiefs game across town, too.

What an amazing weekend for the team and for the girls and me!  We had such a great time!

You can follow the girls at www.pinkpanthersoccer.com
Next tournament is Nov. 7-8 - Autumn Bash

Are You Ready For Some Football?



The Bulldogs 3rd Grade/White finished the season 6- 2 with a big finish in the SuperBowl on Saturday, beating Lamar 36-14.  Stephen had a great time and so did we.  Look for Number 14 next year too ... we will definitely be back!

TGIF ... oh TG



Those mornings when everybody is in such a good mood are so rare ~ too bad Kayla got out of the house before I could snap a shot of her, she looked gorgeous!  I'll catch her after school.  Tonight is the CertainTeed Company picnic at Route 66 Carousel Park ~ it's going to be cold, but we can't wait to ride those teacups!!!  Have a great weekend & I hope your Friday morning has been as much fun as mine.

Fun at the Pumpkin Patch ~ Our First Field Trip!















We had a great time at the Pumpkin Patch with Miss Pam and Miss Marcella today.  It was chilly and muddy, but the boys loved the hay ride and picking thier own pumpkins.

An Exciting Weekend

Thanks to Walt Wilson, Kayla got to meet Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger this weekend at a book signing for WalMart.  Along with Katherine and Abigail, she also got to see Faith Hill introduce her new perfume.



Stephen lost a tooth - leaving a big gap right in the front.  It was so loose it was literally hanging down like a fang for over a week!  He's got two weeks to get rid of the other front tooth and one on the bottom and then it's off to the dentist who will surely want to yank them out!  Wiggle, Stephen, wiggle!



Coming up: 
Cameron & Drew - Pumpkin Patch Field Trip on Thursday
Bradley - Still working on his book order ... running out of time!
Stephen - Football in Joplin on Saturday
Kayla - 2 Soccer Scrimmages in Bella Vista, AR on Saturday
