Halloween 2013

I can't believe it is Christmas and I am just updating about Halloween and scarecrows! This year for Halloween, we had the other Youngblood's over for dinner and then we did some trick or treating in our neighborhood. The first couple of pictures are of Caroline at the church Halloween party. She wanted to be Taylor Swift, however, when we couldn't find any yellow hair spray and the white color failed miserably, making her hair look grey, she switched to Snow White. Jake was Andy Dalton and Cameron was a BYU lacrosse player.

Way back in September, Jake turned 10!!!  He only requested that his BFF, Chance, spend the night.
Cameron made his birthday cake and the boys stayed up all night and played.

CAROLINE ROCKED THE KINDERGARTEN SCARECROW PARADE AT HER SCHOOL.
SHE IS THE CUTEST SCARECROW IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!!

Football Season 2013

A few weeks ago we ended the 2013 Football season.
(SO GLAD IT IS OVER!)
I am one exhausted mom.... 2 boys on 2 different teams called for practice almost every evening and game day was an all day event on Saturday.
Jake played a grade level up this year, for the Texans Blue.
Cameron played for the 6th grade Cowboys.  This was the last season for Cameron to play for the league.  He is now old enough to play junior high football (WHAT???).
The boys were the smallest kids on their teams (of course), but they brought their A game to every game and have a true passion for the sport.

The kiddos on the night of opening ceremonies:

6th, 4th, and Kinder

Last week was the FIRST day of school for the Youngblood Kids.
No group picture for the morning, since Cameron had to be up and gone before the other 2 got up.

Here is Cameron before he headed off to his first day of Junior High

And Jake and Caroline before heading off to 4th & Kinder together

New Beginnings

Orientation Night at the Junior High for Cameron. He picked up his schedule, located all of his classes, and learned how to use his locker. This year brings big changes for the Youngblood Family. Cameron enters Junior High, Caroline starts Kinder, and that means NO KIDS at home for Dusty on his off days. I sure miss being home during the week, but I wouldn't give up my weekends with the family.

6 IS GREAT!

Just a few pictures from Caroline's 6th birthday. 

We kept it low key with just us-her biggest fans.

We went to the Macaroni House-a restaurant that specializes in all different types of "Mac n Cheese"-Caroline's FAVE!

We went to the movies and then celebrated with cake and presents.

Caroline finally got the American Girl, Sage, to add to her collection.

It looks like being 6 is going to be GREAT!
