Veteran's Day Program

The second grade did a wonderful job presenting a Veteran's Day program  Eric sang all the songs for us at home with a lot of animation, but on stage he looked dazed.  Still he was super cute and did a wonderful job.

 Waiting for the program to begin.

It took longer than I thought it would...

Well, with how active/rough Zachary is it is a miracle that he made it to nine to get his first stitch.  Yes, he only needed one so we cannot pluralize it.  He was scared and took a lot of convincing to let the doctor touch it after the numbing gel was on it.  However, once she did he said just get it over.  

 How did it happen.  He was hit by a ball while playing wall ball and his glasses cut under his eyebrow.  It was a weird spot.  

While waiting at the doctors Hyrum needed to be entertained and all I had was the camera so after deleting 400 pictures these are a couple that actually worked.  I'm singing "You ain't nothin but a hound dog" into my microphone (Zachary's foot).

Charlotte's Web Day

 Charlotte's Web Day was a fun filled day for all the 3rd graders.  They spent about a month reading Charlotte's Web in their class and then had a field day.  They painted pumpkins, went on a hay ride, saw real pigs and spiders, and had plenty of snack and played plenty of games.  We went and had a picnic lunch with Zachary and then stayed and helped with the pumpkin painting booth.  Hyrum had a great time painting his own pumpkin.

Happy birthday, Kyle!

Kyle was on a business trip on his actual birthday so we celebrated a few days early.  The kids love their dad and wanted to make it special for him, they had him guess what their gifts were.  He came up with some pretty crazy ideas, maybe he'll get them for Christmas :)  Happy Birthday to a wonderful father, husband, and man.

Halloween

 Halloween was a fun adventure for the Flamm family. Kyle was away on business so we got dressed up and all 5 of the kids walked around the neighborhood.  Zachary soon found a group of older kids and their parents we knew and joined their group.  It was a successful night of "trick or treating" in nice warm weather.  We went to a few houses that went all out on Halloween decor and Eric loved them.  Zachary was a dementor, Eric was an alien, Wendy was a fairy, Hyrum was a fireman, and Sabrina was herself.
Earlier in the week we went to the ward trunk or treat and Wendy also dressed up for her ballet class. At both those events Wendy was the Chinese princess seen below.
