Halloween

So FINALLY here are the kids Halloween pictures. They all decided that they wanted to be the same thing that they were last year. So that made it easy for me.

Miss JoJo herself :)

Gotta love Minnie Mouse :)

And this little guy did not like the idea of dressing up. Even without a costume he still was not happy. He definitely knows what he wants even if no one else does :)

Robyn's 1st Field Trip

On October 23rd Robyn had her 1st Field Trip to Gentry Farms. She had allot of fun at the Pumpkin Patch. She was able to chose a pumpkin that she brought home with her.

LoriAnne popped into the picture right as I was trying to take Robyn's picture. :)

Walden Farms

I am a "creature of habit"...if I don't blog on a regular basis then I end up hardly blogging at all. We are doing great here in Tennessee. My parents came to visit last week (during Robyn's fall break). They left Monday morning. Dave's parents arrive tomorrow and will be here for a week. While my parents were here we had allot of fun. We took the kids to Opryland, Old Town Franklin, to JCPenney's to get pictures taken, the Pumpkin Patch, etc, etc. I have created a slide show of the pictures we took at Walden Farms on Saturday. I don't have much time to write so enjoy the pics. I am off to go visit some people.

Is it really Tuesday????

I know I promised I would be blogging by Sunday but I can give you a million excuses of why I am barely getting around to it :)
Life is good here at the Pendley house. The month of October is exciting for us we will have visitors. My parents will be visiting for a week and Dave's parents will be visiting for a week. We are sooooo excited to see them. Then in November Auntie D and Ather will be visiting. The kids will be dissappointed when we go with out visitors for months after that.

Right now I am enjoying my time with these 3 little ones. It will be a sad day when all of them are in Elementary School. I miss Robyn ALLOT but she is doing very well in school.
We are also enjoying going to Robyn's soccer practices and games. Robyn loves playing soccer and she is doing very well.

On the days that LoriAnne is in preschool I have been going walking at the mall with Mikey and Jonathan. After I have my walking in the boys are rewarded with some time playing in the mall play area. Here Jonathan is having fun on the treehouse slide.

Michael likes to sit in this raft the entire time saying "mommy look at me". He is funny.

Jonathan only lasts in this raft for about 5 seconds. He climbs in, sits down, and then climbs back out. He loves his freedom to rome in the play area and does not stay in the same spot for very long.

Yes, We are still here :)

I know I have not blogged in a while. My lap top computer crashed and that is what I use for blogging. We have other computers in the house but I can't carry them with me to other rooms while watching my kids :)
I will try to catch up this weekend. I have been reading a few books on Aspergers/Autism over the past week and that has actually been taking all my free time. Mikey has his testing for it on October 24th and I need to know as much about it as possible before the appointment.
So check back after Sunday for some "Pendley Family" updates.

Robyn's first Soccer Game

Robyn had her 1st soccer game on Saturday since her "real" 1st game was cancelled. It was fun watching her play. She is really enjoying it (I am not sure that there are too many things Robyn doesn't enjoy though). The other 3 kids watched her play from the side lines. You could hear LoriAnne yelling the whole game "go Robyn go, go Robyn go". Robyn has her own chearleader.

Our Home

We have had some requests to post more pics of our home. I still need to put together pics of the kitchen, laundry room, and office/guest room. I will try to get that together by next week. Dave took these pics. I know I am too much of a perfectionist and almost did not post these because there is something in the wrong spot in each of the pictures. (sorry Dave that is just how I am :) If you can tell what is in the wrong spot then pretend you don't see it :)

When you come into our front door this is what you see before you walk up the stair case.

This is the before and after shots of the living room. The before pics are al on the left and after pics are all on the right.

This is the before and after pics of our Master Bedroom.

This is before and after pics of our Master Bath.

This is before and after pics of the kids bathroom.

This is before and after pics of the girls and boys room. I have posted pics of their rooms in previous posts.

This is the before and after pics of the rec/play room. The pics are taken at different angles but you get the general idea of the before and after.
