Beginning of November

Two New Nieces

On October 16th little Mckaylee was born. She is the third Schroeder grandchild and as you can see is a doll.




My brother Josh, Mckaylee's proud dad.

Then this last Friday, November 7th, Gillian Gray Hulbert was born. She is the 7th Hulbert grandchild.
Here is Reese's brother Rhet with his sweet little girl.

This is Erica's mom, not Gillian's.

I hate that there are post birth pictures of me out there so in tribute to the new moms Heather and Erica, I will not post pictures of them.

Leukemia Lymphoma Marathon

I know this looks long but PLEASE READ:

Family and Friends, my mom, Janice and my sister Sara are running a Marathon in January for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. This is a big deal because neither my mom nor my sister have ever been into running. So as you have guessed, this will be their first marathon ever!

They will be running to help raise awareness and money for Leukemia Lymphoma. My darling Aunt Karen lost her fight against this type of cancer about 5 years ago. My mom and Sara are asking all of their friends and family to donate to this great cause and I am asking all my family and friends to help in their cause.

They have a goal to meet by November 14th and will be running the 26.2 miles in January. Your willingness to donate would be appreciated. Remember that any donation is tax deductible and you will be sent a receipt for your records.

You can donate online.
For Sara: http://pages.teamintraining.org/ut/pfchangs09/sschroeder
For Janice: http://pages.teamintraining.org/ut/pfchangs09/jschroerky
Your help is appreciated and remember it is for a GREAT CAUSE! Let's cure cancer!!

P.S. We all know someone who has been touched by cancer and the work that is done by the Leukemia Lymphoma Society will benefit ALL cancer patients.

Halloween Day!!

Here is a little taste of what we did on Halloween...

First, Mason got dressed in his Gorilla costume and we went over to ours friend's house to meet up for trick-or-treating downtown to all the Main Street businesses.
I put Mason in the stroller because I thought it would be easier to manage him. Once he realized that people were just giving him candy he got really excited! He ate quite a bit of candy...he would probably say that he did not get enough but it sure was more than I would have liked him to have. But when you take an excited 18-month-old boy, get him around friends, and get him on a sugar rush...he has to stop sometime. We only went about 2 blocks before Mason CRASHED!!

At least we didn't have to pick up any more candy.
Here is the group at the end of our Main Street Trick-or-Treating.
So what does a husband do when he receives a call from his wife a half hour before leaving to the Halloween party informing him of a change in costume? A GOOD one straps on those tights, hikes up that skirt, and CHEERS!!

***VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED***

Below are some pictures of the Halloween Party that we went to that night. You can see us together in our "Pyramid". In case you didn't know, Lacey is the football player, Reese is the Cheerleader, and Mason our the Silverback Mascot.
