So long, Soccer!

Joby had his last soccer game of the season yesterday. He made some progress as the season went on, but we are going to wait a few years to put in him any sport that involves competition. He is just not ready for this kind of sport. Coach Becca was sick, so the Medal Ceremony was very brief. Thanks Becca for all your hard work, patience, and support!

Joby needed a little help.

During half time, the kids were getting out every ounce of energy. They had more fun running around Justin, than playing in the soccer game.

Justin volunteered to be the coach, since Becca was sick. He's a busy man.

Happy Halloween

Last night, we went trick-or-treating with some friends. To kick off the night, we had pizza for dinner and then, all the candy you can carry in a bucket. We went door-to-door in a friends neighborhood and then, did a few houses in our neighborhood. We had lots of fun and now have too much candy.

Yes, this is Joby's Halloween costume. A Halloween football player.

Happy Halloween from the OK Olsen's!

Haunt the Zoo

The OKC Zoo puts on a great Halloween festivity every year-Haunt the Zoo. It's 1.5 miles of pumpkins lining the way for candy. There's picture spots all over of different scenes of Halloween, airplanes, trains, The Wizard of Oz, fairies, etc. Every few feet there's a sponsor of the event handing out candy--good candy. Joby would ask, "Where's another trick-or-treat?" We had a great time together that night, along with every other person from OK.

Good things are in our future!

The cow from Chick-fil-A. Joby knew him right away.

The highlight of Jerni's night. Something to gnaw on.

The clowns were making balloon animals. This is a giraffe.

Orr Family Farm 2008

Our 2nd Annual trip to Orr Family Farm was this past Friday. We had a great time with The Sautter's and The Johnson's. We rode the carousel, the train, big tricycles, played at the park, and went on a hayride to get a pumpkin. The weather was perfect for a fall day. We look forward to going again next year.

Joby's favorite part of the night--the train!

This was the 2nd time on the carousel. The 1st time Justin was sitting on his own horse.

They were following the "yellow" brick road.

All of us on the train.

Brrrrrr

We were heading out one night and I wanted to find some gloves and scarves to make sure we stayed warm. Joby had so much fun putting on all the items. Take a look...

Hair Raising Fun

We had a little lesson on static electricity. Joby thought it was quite funny to have the balloon stick to his hair. He tried it on Jerni, but her hair wouldn't do anything.

Another Use for the Box

Joby decided to get inside the box with Jerni. They had a lot of fun having Justin push them all over the house.

Sittin' pretty...on a Box!

Joby had the best seat in the house this morning watching his show.

Little Girl, BIG Mess

Jerni had such a good time playing with ALL of the toys and taking them out one by one.

Big Bump

Joby fell the other day and hit his head on the bench at our dining table. I'm not exactly sure how he tripped, but I definately heard the "thud." He was so good and let me ice it for about 15 minutes while he watched a show. It kind of looks like half a devil's horn. That would certainly fit him some days, but good thing we love him anyways.

Soccer Game

This is Joby during his soccer game. The only way you would know he was at his soccer game is he is wearing the jersey.
