Halloween

For Halloween this year we went to Brandon's Mom's house. She lives in a complex that makes it great for trick-or-treating. Austin wanted to be Buzz Lightyear so bad, he wouldn't take any other suggestions. Luckily my sister-in-law had a costume and lent it to us. Kylee wanted to be Arial. I found a mermaid costume at Costco, but Kylee informed me that Arial's outfit was green so she decided to be Arial's best friend.

At Grammy's they decorated cupcakes and made cute little vampire teeth.

Pumpkin Patch

Every year there is a farm by my house that has a pick your own pumpkin Patch. They have cute little picture displays and wagons and wheelbarrows, to gather your pumpkins in. We took the kids and let them pick out a couple of pumpkins. They had so much fun. They thought it was pretty neat they got to run around through all those pumpkins. We only had a few ouchies as they tripped over the pumpkin vines, but all in all in was a lot of fun. They even had a little corn maze for the kids. We let the kids lead the way, and only got lost once.







Kylee insisted on pulling Austin all by herself.

Their cute display.
Kylee would not get on the tractor. This is as high as she would get.

Birthdays

So far this year we have celebrated 2 birthdays. First was Kylee's 4th birthday. We celebrated at Brandon's sisters house for all of the bdays in Jan and Feb. The kids decorated their own birthday cupcakes and made a big mess, of course. The next party was with my family. We went to TGI Fridays and ate until we were going to pop. Then we came back to our house and had cake and ice cream:) MMMM....... I made the cake, but I am not sure what to think of it. We had fun though, so that is all that matters.


For Austins 2nd bday we had pizza and cake and ice cream at our house. Austin had so much fun opening up his presents. He got some pretty cool stuff. Brandon and I were trying to find a basketball hoop for him, but had no success. Lucky for us Rachel and Mike came to the rescue and bought him one. He loves it and drags it everywhere. He won't shoot only dunk, but eventually he will get it.

Winter Fun

It has been a long time since I posted anything, so I thought I would start out the new year, with a new post. During one of the big snow storms we had in December, the kids wanted to go out and play. I thought since I needed to shovel, I would let them. They did really good at first, until their fingers got cold.(Note to self: buy the kids decent gloves). Poor Austin had to use some of Kylee's old mittens, which aren't meant for actually playing IN the snow. This little excursion outside was short lived, but we had fun while it lasted.



Had to play with a rake, since I ran over the shovel.


Such big helpers!!!


It's FREEEEEZZZZZZING!!!!!


Warm inside with red, snotty noses.
