Carter's 6th Family Birthday!

Carter's 6th Birthday!  Wow!  I cannot believe that my little boy is 6!  He is so smart and can do so many things!  He loves Star Wars, so we had to find a Star Wars cake and matching tablecloth, napkins, and plates!  After going to the Razorback game with Mimi, Carter decided he needed a helmet and jersey.  As always, Mimi searched and searched and finally found exactly what Carter asked for!  Aunt Chelle gave Carter the remote control car.  It doesn't just go forward and backward, it goes in circles, up walls, turns around, etc.  Very cool toy!  Aunt Gail and Uncle Dick sent Carter a new Sponge Bob game for his DS and some pajamas.  Roy, Gray, and I gave Carter the Spiderman mask, a light saver, and Star Wars Lego movie.  I think Carter had a great time! 

Fall Pictures 2011

I am very thankful for these boys! 

Carter's First Razorback Game!

First Friday in Bentonville "Toyland"

We went to see Mater!  We ran into the other "friends" you see pictured.  It was an interesting experience for us all.  MANY mascots were there and that caused a great deal of anxiety for Carter.  MANY people were there which caused Roy to put Grayson on his shoulders so he could breathe.  Children were everywhere!  Vendors were all displaying their toys for this Christmas season.  Many were giving out little things for the children to take home.  Who knew adults would be so pushy and grabby!  We loved seeing Mater and Batman, but the Bishop Family will NOT be attending this again anytime soon! 

Halloween 2011

We had so much fun taking the boys trick or treating this year!  We went 3 blocks then returned home to hand out our candy.  We had to turn our lights off at 8:00 because we were completely out!  It was a great night!

Fall 2011

Silver Dollar City in the Fall was a blast!  Carter has grown 1/2 inch from summer to fall to upgrade bands!  He can now ride all rides 48" allows!  He has wanted to ride this with his daddy since they put it in, and THIS time Carter was tall enough!  I was scared to death that he would panic, but we could hear him laughing the entire ride!  He LOVED it!

We have Super Heroes as our theme this year for our pumpkins.  Iron Man and Spider Man are proudly displayed on our mantle.

Carter had his first fall break this year.  The boys and Roy got to spend an entire week home together while I went to work.  According to Roy, they all had fun and he would like to do it again!  Roy took these pics of the boys and had them put in a picture as a surprise. 

Carter played fall tee ball this year.  He loves baseball!  He has learned to really hit the ball and is getting better at catching.  He even tagged a guy out on second base!  His coach is very patient and loves to teach the fundamentals.  This park had a play area for Grayson, so he wasn't as bored as the summer.  Grayson is ready to play too!  Roy practices in the yard with both boys and I think they are pretty good.  Do I think we have Derek Jeters in our family......................possibly!!!!

Can't believe that it is almost the holiday season again!  Seems that the work days drag on and on but family time always flies by!  Hug your family and friends!
