Cole

Cole just keeps losing teeth...3 lost and 3 coming in. Andy helped knock the first two out and the last one Cole managed to knock out on his own!

He is quite the inventor, too. He likes to shut himself in the game closet and invent things like this "car moving machine".

School Carnival

Each Fall, St. Mary's School has a Mission Carnival. This year Daddy made this cake for the "Cake Walk". To say the least, we did not win this cake or any other one. Good thing, Mom and Dad thought ahead to make two cakes... one for school and one for home.

Daddy took the day off work too! That meant Heidi and Andy got to join in the fun. This was there first year and everything was exciting to do and play. The whole church basement is packed full of games and kids eager to spend their parent's money.

The kids win prizes or candy no matter what. We ended up with a lot of candy for Heidi and Andy's efforts!

Cole got the chance to play games with Cousin Josh.... what a good day! Mommy was sure glad when it was over... Hurray for St. Mary's School!

Good Pictures

At the carnival, there is always a "Buddy Picture" stand. The Meyer Trio stops for a picture at the ice cream parlor!


Wow - That is a pretty good family picture!

Fire Prevention Week

We celebrated Fire Prevention Week by visiting the fire hall and taking a ride. The kids sat in the fire truck and just took it all in. It is the quietest I think they get in a vehicle. If they were only that good and quiet when Mommy and Daddy are driving!

We wait for our ride....oh the anticipation!

Halloween Cookies

We started out October by making some yummy Halloween cookies. We have three expert cookie cutters that live in our house and they were eager to help. It actually went well so just maybe we will make some Christmas cutouts this year as well. Andy was the pumpkin man!

Heidi was an expert on making black kitties!

Cole worked on the ghosts. He was even patient enough to let the other two cut first.


We got up the next day and frosted. Andy likes to lick everything constantly! Cole is really pretty good with it. We actually let him help for longer than his brother and sister. Heidi just wants to put the frosting on and get another cookie. I think she was a little upset that our cats had to be black....no purple!
