{Halloween Has Finally Arrived}

My kids love Halloween!  I'm sure it's because they love to dress up and love to eat candy, but whatever it is this is a much anticipated day in our house.  They count down the days until they get to wear their costumes!  The night before Halloween, we were tucking Parker into bed and she said "I can't believe Halloween is tomorrow! I'm just not ready for this!" The anticipation was too much.  It was hilarious!

Parker the cowgirl and Hayes the shark!

Hayes was trying to "swim" on the skateboard!

I love this little guy!!

She was so proud!  She picked out all of her fabrics for her costume and then her BG and I made it.

And they're off!  What a beautiful night for a little trick or treating!

I mean, how cute is that little tail fin!

Hope you all had a happy Halloween! 

{Parker's Halloween Party}

The class party parade continued from Hayes's party to Parker's party! I always love to see the kids in the kids classes interact with each other and have fun.  They were really rather calm, surprisingly.

My cowgirl...Petunia

Enjoying all the goodies!

A little craft to keep them entertained!

{Hayes's Halloween Party}

Hayes had a Halloween Party at his school and I was lucky enough to get to go and celebrate with his class.  It was crazy and hectic so the kids didn't all change into their costumes, but they had fun none the less!

Hayes with his buddies, Jae & Abbie!

{Annual Pumpkin Carving}

Every year (well, the past 2 years) we get together with my family to let all the kids carve pumpkins.  It's such a fun time!  The kids are finally getting old enough to be trusted with knives...wait, is that a good thing or bad thing?

Here are some of the fun times from our pumpkin carving extravaganza!

Is that a face of enjoyment or disgust?  Parker does not mind getting dirty at all! That's what I love about that girl!

Hayes jumped right in there and dug out all the seed and goop!

My sister's baby Dylan is precious! She was enjoying a little snack. :)

Daddy was helping Parker.  I won't touch on all the major knife violations in this picture.  Look away!

Grandad and Rylie...Cheese!

I love my Mimi! She's 91 and always in the middle of the party!

It was a beautiful day so we were able to be outside by the pool.

All the grandkids with their finished pumpkins!
