October 2014

Grant was awarded a Star Citizen Award for the first month of school! We were super proud of him!

 Mom and Katherine have had a great time being together everyday!

 We had the Coley Family Reunion at the clubhouse in our neighborhood. It worked out nicely and was a great time. 

 Actually, it was great until Katherine fell off of the swing into a puddle. That was sad. I will have to post a pic when I find it. I think it was on Danny's phone.

Victoria's school had twin day. She didn't have a partner, so that could have been sad. However, she asked Katherine to be her twin and asked if we could come visit for lunch. It made Katherine feel so special!Best sister ever right there! I was really proud of V's maturity and family pride. It made a potential sad situation just awesome!

 Grant did twin day at his school too. He wore matching outfits with his friend, Israel. Unfortunately, I did not see them together. I heard that they had a lot of fun matching though!

 Activity Day Girls had a fun Halloween Activity planned by Katie Todd! They really love painting and crafting.

 Their pumpkins were all so unique!

 Fun games too! Sis. Todd is awesome!

 Did I tell you that days with this girl are fun? She is a character! And likes to do things herself.

 I love these little toes and her fun clothes.

 She loves yogurt. Really. This was just crazy though. I turn away and she paints with it!

Grant in a cool Pokemon hat!

 They don't like attention or anything. ;)

 Did I mentioned that the boys played soccer again? Danny coached. Awesome family members cheered!

 Grant took his first field trip to the pumpkin patch! It was pretty awesome.

It was so much fun that we brought the family there that weekend. 

 Sneek Peek into 6th grade! Victoria was in Mrs. Peterson's class. She is an awesome teacher and is a good friend of ours from church too! We were really glad that V could be in her class. These are just a few pictures from a fun minute to win it party for the 6th graders.

 Our ward had a fun trunk or treat!

 Christian made an awesome map of Virginia for Mrs. Jone's class! Mrs. Jones is a great teacher and is a friend too. She was Victoria's 4th grade teacher and we were pleased that she was Christian's teacher too. She asks good questions and encourages higher level thinking. I was able to help her on Monday mornings this year. Katherine sat with me and colored or watched a Dora dvd while I sorted graded papers into folders. Occasionally we made copies too. Katherine was a good sport. It was fun to get some extra peeks into Christian's classroom too. 

 I love this dress! 

 Halloween pjs were so cute on Grant!

 I was proud of myself for making lots of caramel apples for the CAES teachers. I volunteered to be the hospitality chair this year and decided to try to do something special every month for the teachers.  My friend, Meg, helped me tremendously on this project! I heard that the teachers liked them.

 Disguises, disguises.

 Playgroup

 My friend, Erin, made this playgroup pretty awesome.
