Halloween 09'

Halloween was a hit this year... My kids got to be what they wanted and between the trunk r' treat and going to houses for a couple hours they got a TON of candy!

All my boys wore this costume at this exact age
(seeing as how they were all born in July or August)
They all look SO much alike too... maybe I'll post some later to compare.

Chase's Class
There were a couple really creative costumes in his class this year.
A Humpty Dumpty, and a Tree... I'm sure you can pick them out. CUTE!

These are the boys out with their friends.
Landon was Obi Wan Kenobi and Chase was Anikan one day and Jengo Fett another.
We're really into Star Wars here if you couldn't tell.
I tried to get Brady an infant Darth Vader costume, but when it came down to it I didn't want to spend the money... maybe next year, that would be cute!

Carving Pumpkins

I put off carving pumpkins this year until the night before Halloween. I was trying to get away without doing it at all, but Chase had been BEGGING for weeks to do them so Bryce was finally home one night and we stayed up past bed time to let the kids have some fun.
Don't they look like they're having fun?

It was SO cold outside by the time we put the pumpkins out,
but we had to have a picture of all their hard work.

Picking Pumpkins

We found a great place to pick pumpkins this year. It had a small corn maze that the boys LOVED with some trick mirrors and few other fun things for them to do.
It was a great night to spend with the family since those nights don't seem to happen all that much with Bryce working so much.
I love just spending fun family time with ALL my boys!

What did we ever do without him?

Family in Illinois...

Last weekend my dad and my brother Keith took a trip out to see his folks in Illinois and we were lucky enough to be invited. I love being able to see my family, I will do so any chance I get. It was going to be my first road trip by myself with all three kids, but Bryce was able to come last minute... whew!
It also happened to be my mom's dad's 91st birthday while we were there! We took him an ice cream cake and some hard candy to celebrate.
The boys of course went golfing, even though it was only 45 degrees and my Nana and I took the boys to "Where the Wild Things Are" (Not recommended!)
My dad's dad also has a birthday this month so we took the time to celebrate that while we were there. We had a great weekend!
I miss my family!

91!

Landon LOVES showing anyone who will pay attention his football card collection.
My Grandpa loved talking football with him... it was so cute!

The Whole Gang!
(minus Bryce who was nice enough to take the picture)

Love these People!

Who's Kid is he Anyway?...

I have nothing to say about this picture...

I can't get him to take the bink.... he prefers this instead.
