Posing for Mom
Carson & Drew (Scary dudes!)Okay, I have a lot of back blogging to do in the next 2 months to catch up to 2011. All I can say is that I'm exhausted at the end of the day and since the house is usually a mess, pictures are at the bottom of the list. Would love for 2012 to be my turnaround year, but I'm not making any promises.
I do want to post Halloween pictures though so friends and family can see all the fun we had!
Carson went as a Clone Trooper this year, Cheyanne decided to be Cleopatra and definitely looked the part with her straight black hair, Cassidy went as Rapunzel and just loved her new braid wig. She got many comments during our trek for candy as many loved her dress and LONG braid. Colton decided to opt out of Halloween this year and managed to snag a movie with some family friends and enjoyed himself as well.
Our downtown has trick or treating from 3:30-5:30 where you go by all the merchants and collect candy. We did that for an hour and then headed home for pizza. Then, at 6:15, we started out with the Rosenthal's for a strolling walk to houses with 8 kids in tow and lasted almost 2 hours with a lot of candy to sort through by the time we were done. We had fun running into many friends along the way and stopped for short break at Uncle Trevor & Aunt Kathleen (who were more than generous with the candy amount they handed out to us). The kids got to hand out a little more candy once we got home to late night treaters and then off to bed.
We managed to get to the pumpkin patch finally this past weekend. A very nice one with a corn maze, climbing wall, country store and lots of pumpkins to choose from. I think we'll go there another year as the kids really enjoyed it and it wasn't too crowded. We tie-dyed Halloween shirts as well, so we need to take some pictures of us modeling those and post as well.
I cannot believe it's November tomorrow. Yikes!!! I'm not ready for the holidays, I need another month in between!!
Check out the photos and I hope to play some catch up here soon with past pictures from our trip to Alaska in June. Sports pictures and other miscellaneous fun shots.
