The Knoebel Family: November 2009

Happy Halloween. The boys had a blast. This is Cole being funny after trick or treating. Cole was a pirate, Cason was Albert, Mike was "Tebow" and I was also a pirate. Nina came trick or treating. Auntie Ang and Jen Jen and Baby Kiya along with Nonna, Pop, and Ms. Peggy also joined the festivities. Kate, Brian, Nathan and Kyle also joined the trick or treating fun. Boy this year was great. The kids ran faster then we could keep up. Cole was just too excited. Each year just gets better and better! Oh yeah, we tried to take the jeep again this year but we had to put the governer on due to Cole getting too far ahead. When we made him slow down he was like, "mom I'm going too slow!" So we ditched the jeep and walked.

This was Cole's school parade.

Cole loves carving pumpkin. He's not at all afraid of the goo.

In Zellwood,Fl there is a corn maze at a farm. It's just too cool. They have a smaller one that has a treasure hunt, a labyrinth, and a 6 acre maze with a scavenger hunt. We didn't do the big one because we ran out of time, but we did the smaller ones. The kids had a blast. We are heading back there this fall to concer the bigger maze with daddy.

In Sept we visited Kennedy Space Center. The boys are really big into space ships lately. They just thought it was the neatest thing to see all this. Cole wanted to go into space and sadly we had to disappoint him and explain why.

Cole started soccer this year. Boy we were hoping he'd like it better than basketball. And thank goodness he does. Basketball took alot out of me and Mike emotionally. Cole's coach actually got us into a UCF game where Cole got to warm up with the player and walk out on the field with them and sit there for the National Anthem.

Last time Aunt Sharon, Marisa, and baby Laney came to visit we saw manatees. This time Uncle Ole and Aunt Sharon came we went on an airboat ride. Cole was taking some pictures in the car on the way home. It was pretty cool, we saw big alligators, baby alligators, eagles, cypress, and wild black eyed susans.

We had a nice summer visit with Nathan, Kyle, Katie and Jillian. The boys thought my dining room was a nascar race track but it was all fun. They had a blast.
