October/Halloween Pics!

Avery was a black cat this year. I entered this picture in the

Daily Oklahomans contest, but then forgot to vote...oops! They did publish

her picture in the newpaper on Nov. 5th and she was very excited!

Matthew was Bumblebee the Transformer. Yellow is his favorite color too!

Maci was Minnie Mouse.

On Halloween night, Avery stayed home with Marc and handed out candy. She wasn't

feeling very good.

My mom and I took Matthew & Maci with some of our neighbors and

trick or treated in the neighborhood for almost 2 hours.

Maci loved it!

The kidoodles enjoying the pumpkin patch!

Maci playing with her belly button =)!

Daddy and the kidoodles posing for yet another
picture for mommy. Thanks guys!

Playing around in the front yard. Notice our cat, Baxter,

looking out the window. He was upset we wouldn't let him come

play too.

Grammy Meg's Birthday Party!

Grammy Meg and Papa Darrel met us in OKC to celebrate her birthday in September.

We had a wonderful dinner at PF Changs.

Marc and I enjoying the evening sans kiddos.

Bryan & Gayle, 5 weeks before their wedding!

The yummy birthday cake we enjoyed.

Potty Training...Maci Style!

Maci loves to sit on her potty and has been successful a few times too!

We started working on it when she was 15 months old only because she wanted to. She is now 18 months and does pretty good when I take her consistently. She even tells me when she is peeing in her diaper. I am hoping that by age 2 she will be in big girl pants!

Daddy & the Kidoodles

What a difference a year makes!!!!

The top pic was taken Sept. 2008 and the bottom pic was taken in June of 2007.

These are my favorite photos of my family! I actually didn't pose them either. Impressive!

The First Day of School 2008

The first day of school 2008! Wow, hard to believe it's that time of year again! Matthew is beginning Kindergarten and Avery is in 2nd grade this year! They are both sooo excited to begin another year.

Matthew is in Mrs. Davisson's class.

Avery is in Ms. Autry's class this year.

And last, but not least, here is lil' Maci hammin it up for the camera! She is enjoying being with Mommy! Mommy is enjoying her time at home too! It seems to being going way to fast and I wish I could keep them from growing up so fast.

July Day at the Myriad Botanical Gardens

Marc and I took the kids downtown a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed some time at the Myriad Botanical Gardens. The location was great for taking pictures. Avery took this one of me, Marc, and Maci.

Avery and Matthew enjoyed looking at all the ponds on the property. They were filled with goldfish.

Dad and kiddos getting yet another photo taken!

I loved this pic! They are all so intent on gazing at the pond.

Avery refused to be in this picture because she had seen a bumble bee and didn't want to get stung.

Kletke Family Reunion 2008

Our family traveled to Jefferson City, MO over the 4th of July weekend for a Kletke Family Reunion. We also celebrated Grandfather Kletke's 94th birthday.

We all had a wonderful time and the kids enjoyed seeing all of their cousins.
