Autumn Likes to Read

Autumn loves her books we read at least 3 every night. So here's a couple videos of her doing her own reading with Mom.

Go Cats!!!

As I mentioned Last Time Autumn and Maddy were yelling at all of the people who walked by on their way to the game. Any one in Red got a Go Cats! Those in yellow weren't as lucky. Autumn was still boo-ing Iowa the next day.

Iowa and Arizona Game

A couple weeks ago the Iowa Hawkeyes came to town to play our Kitty Kats. Needless to say we were victorious (no surprise there). Before the game we went down to the mall to see Denny, Danielle, and Randle. And then we went down to Maddy's house for awhile.
The girls yelling "GO CATS!" to anyone in red and "BOOOO IOWA!!!" to anyone in Yellow.

Bear Down Arizona - Again

I know I know. Another Bear Down Arizona video, we get it you brainwashed her and she's rooting for the Cats. In my defense it never stops being cute. Especially last weekend when she and Maddy were yelling Go Cats from the Mastin front porch, when Autumn called a baby in an Iowa shirt a thumbsucker and she was still boo-ing Iowa on Sunday.

Happy First Day of Autumn!!

It's my favorite season! Since I was a kid I have always loved Autumn the most!! Enjoy the season and you're upcoming holidays everyone!

 

Bear Down Arizona!

We've been working on Bear Down Arizona the last week, she's getting close. I figured no better time that Gameday to release this one to the public.

Golfing

So I broke down the other day at the store and bought Autumn her first set of Golf Clubs, 3 bucks, can't complain. She's still getting a feeling for it. I took some pictures and a movie the other day.

Her form looks good, though I'm not sure why she's using the wedge from that close.

At least her swing looks better than Barkley.

This time she trusted her caddy and switched to her putter.

A shot from behind the green.

Just tap it in.

I stole some pics.

I took some pictures off Courtney's blog!!

Autumn painting!

Here's our little Picasso!! She loved her painting class...and I loved that my house didn't get dirty!! We made a portfolio to carry all her artwork.

Special Zoo Trip

So I met one of the Zoo directors at Trident and he invited us to a behind the scenes look of the Zoo!! It was really nice of him and we had a lot of fun! Of course Autumn and I brought our zoo buds Courtney and Maddy!!

Here's Kira the female lion!
Here we are backed up against the fence!! The girls were very quiet because the lion was VERY loud!

This male lion thought Autumn and Maddy would be a tasty treat.

Chris got the girls stuffed animals!!

New Bed and Room

Autumn Moved! We put her in the old catch-all/den/Sam's room when he visted. For the last few weeks she was on a mattress on the floor, but we finally got her a real bed in there and started putting some of her decorations back on the wall. So here are a few pictures of the new room.

Reading to Mom.

Cuddling with Mom and her workbook.

Dolphins!

As promised here's a trimmed down video of the Dophins on Mission beach. At first 2 or 3 (that we saw) headed left past us (about 20-25 feet past where Autumn and I had just been) then about 35 minutes later what appeared to be 4-5 came back by us. It was really cool they were just beyond the waves.

Mission Beach

On Sunday morning we went to Mission Beach. It was cold and completely overcast of course! We also saw dolphins and I attempted to take a video of it! It was pretty blair witch, so Chris is going to have to edit it!!

This wave came out of nowhere and completely wiped Autumn out! I wish we would have gotten a picture of her completely soaked but she was crying and very cold! So we actually put the camera down and took care of her! Needless to say, she didn't play in the water for the rest of the day. But we did play in the sand!!

Autumn likes long walks on the beach...

I just like the lady in the background here.

She threw lots of sand on me

One big sandbox

Baywatch auditions...

So relaxing!

Hanging out with Aunt Liz!

Uncle Jordan came by!!

We bought her sand buckets and shovels, and she used this little plastic piece of trash.

My feet hurt! TOOO cold!
