Lucas's favorite hobby is fishing. He would go everyday if we let him. This was his first go at trout fishing.
We went to the lake this summer with our good friends the Neuschafers. Jen, Addie, Maddox, and I spent some time on the beach while the others were in the boat.
It was so hot that day at the beach. You couldn't even walk on the sand without shoes.
Addison was a sunflower for Halloween this year.
Brayden was Dan from Bakugon for Halloween.
Brayden, Addie, and dad did their annual pumpkin carving.
Addie never wants to stick her hand in the pumpkin and dig out the guts. 
We went the the local farmers market to pick out our pumpkins.
Lucas played soccer this fall!
He was part of the JV team.
We took the kids to the state fair this year again. We only went one night so they could go on the rides.
The swings were not one of my favorite rides as a kid, but Brayden' s stomach doesn't seam to mind. 
Dad and the kids always do the slide. It is a tradition.
This is the night they announced all the teens doing fall sports. They had over 40 boys on the soccer team this year.
We had to get a pic with the kids and Chase before they said good-bye.
Cousins Lucas and Chase.
Chase is having fun at the water park!
We visited the Hutchinson Zoo to see all the animals.
We took the kids for a ride in the train.
Aunt Janell and Chase ready for our ride on the train.
We went to the fire station to visit Counsin Jim and see all the big fire trucks.
Uncle Jim even let us spray the fire hose.
Addie and Chase took turns pushing each other around in the doll stroller.
Addie and Chase just goofing around!
Lucas is starting his freshman year in high school this year.
Brayden is a 3rd grader this year! He is super excited to see his friends again.
