Kids Gone Wild!!

You Count them!! 6 kids gone wild. At last minute we decided that since the Bulldogs pulled through and the Rebels were on the way to a victory. (Can you believe it!!) I made some phone calls and found out that I am not the only one to take the extra, long ride home after a birthday party. Everyone was still out, made a u-turn, and ended up at the Power's. We usually talk big and never do anything, but all the men were gone, so we had Power Pizza night with some friends.

Avery's First Pony Ride!!

This weekend we were invited to a Birthday Party and they had a pony for the kids to ride. It took Avery awhile for her to decide if she was going to ride. As for as Tripp, Can you see his outfit. He was in full gear and ready to ride. What a great day!!

Last Soccer Game

We made it!! Tripp had his last soccer game. Thank goodness for all the tired moms running around trying to get everyone to the game on time and the cold weather was moving in quick. Tripp really enjoyed soccer this year and can't wait till next year. He got his first Trophy!!

October/November at School




I blinked and November was gone. We have been so busy with field trips to the Pumpkin patch, Halloween and the Indian Pow-wow. I had to put some of the pictures of my little tribe. The kids all loved the day filled with all kinds of Native American activities.

Halloween 2008










Watch Out Brett Basham!! It's true Tripp wanted to be Brett Basham for Halloween. After talking him out of being a Cowboy for the third year, he wanted to be Power 22(Logan) which we are most days in our house!! We finally agreed that he could wear his catchers gear and be BASHAM. That's right, Brett Basham is the starting catcher for the Ole Miss Rebels. It is something about catchers that Tripp loves. Reminder that this was the only thing Tripp asked for his birthday was a catchers helmet. I guess it is all the equipment it takes. Every year that Logan has played, Tripp has taken up with the catcher. Thank goodness Basham will be back this year.

Avery Parks was going to be Tinker Bell and refused to put the costume on. At the last minute, She was a ladybug that she didn't wear the year before. I can she a pattern going on with her. Enjoy!! This was our first official Trick-or-Treat with the both of them.

Pumpkin Patch

Tripp's First Field Trip!!! We had the best time at the Pumpkin patch. Tripp had been counting down the days till he got to ride on the BIG YELLOW SCHOOL BUS. The best part about it was the ride on the school bus. I don't think Tripp stopped smiling the whole time.

CAUGHT... Red Handed




Avery is trying real hard to be like her big Brother. I found her in Tripp's Bathroom going to town brushing her teeth with of course Tripp's batman toothbrush. I do have to say, "She did a good job".

Catching Up..

I have added several post to catch me up. Our family trip to Destin always starts my new scrap book for the year. Sorry so many. I am going to try out this book everyone is talking about.

Destin 2008





This makes 3 years in a row for the Power, Power and Leach Family Vacation. Everyone made it this year. We had lots of fun. Eating, playing golf, shopping, going to the beach, riding race cars and 1 bungee jumper.... We did it all. Even making our trip to the Island we named Power Island. I think this is always the highlight of our trip. We always pick on day to go out on the boat and ride in the bay. There is a little sand bar that we always stop for lunch and do some seashell collecting. This year we almost caught a really big crab!!

Tripp, Avery Parks and Harper
I love the last picture. The girls really had a hard time enjoying their vacation because Tripp would not leave them alone. He would always do this for every picture we made. Hang in there girls!!




Riding Race cars for Tripp. If you look close he was a little nervous!!

Has you can tell we didn't get a good family picture. I laugh every time I look at these pictures. We did good to get what we got. Next year, we will do this on the first day when everyone is HAPPY!!
