Tim's Birthday and the last camping trip of the season

Tim's 8th Birthday - can you believe he's that old!
Don't you just love James' expression

Tim loved his new meet the Robinson's game

We also got him a little rocket which he loved but unfortunately the batteries were dead and it didn't ignite so we'll have to try it out another time. It was fun to make it with them though.
The Grandparents filled up Tim's scrapbooking supplies and he has been none stop creating since.

This fall also featured the boy's first season of soccer - it was really fun to watch their games and see their personalities come out on the field.

We also took the boys camping for the last time before it got too cold. We had the perfect weather right before the plummet in temperature which was depressing. No more summer fun :(
We went with Leisha, her friend Cecile, her hubby Nicolas and their kids. Nicolas found this snake in the bush in the first 2 minutes. All the boys young and old couldn't get enough of it!

Action shot of Tim - there were 4 boys and they were all over the place. It took 5 adults to look out for them!

This pretty much sums up what the kids were doing the whole time - running, hiking, trying to light things on fire and messing with each other - it was hilarious!

I have to end with this photo - this is my personal assistant Mr. Muttons.

I love the cat picture. I miss those kids. I hope they're coming to the halloween party. Tim scrapbooking is hilarious! If he ever wants to come over, Amy's got all kinds of crap for that and we can scrapbook together. Seriously.
