Halloween Post # 2

We went to a local pumpkin patch that had this awesome train. It took us all around the farm. The kids loved it. It was a tight squeeze for Drew and I but we fit on also.

Isabelle as Elmo and I at our Church Trunk or Treat. It was raining all day and stopped right before the activity started.

Kate as Cookie Monster. She would not let go of her candy bucket. We had to distract her with a donut to get it out of her hand to strap her into the car.

Will as Dragon Boy. We got this costume 2 years ago and he really wanted to use it again. It was a little short on the legs and arms but it worked. This is a picture of Will at his class party that I helped put together. It was fun to see all of the Kindergartners dressed up.

On Halloween night we went to Idaho Falls to go trick or treating at Great Grandma (93 yrs old) and Great Grandpa (92) Harris' House. We do this every year so in the past the kids really haven't gone trick or treating around a neighborhood but this year Will new what was supposed to happen so we went trick or treating around Drew's parents neighborhood. We have never had so much candy. I don't know what we are going to do with it all. So far we have only let Will and Isabelle eat about 3 pieces each. We will probably still have some next Halloween.


Thank you Grandma Harris for having such a great costume collection. We didn't have to buy any costumes this year!

Halloween Post # 1

Our Halloween week has been a busy one and it all started on Saturday Night with our Monthly Couples game night. It was so much fun and Drew and I won the most original costume. We went as Jim and Pam from The Office season two Halloween episode. I'm a black cat and Drew is a three whole punch paper.

Drew couldn't truly be Jim without a little Jello.

Will's Big Fall

A couple of weeks ago while Will was at school he tripped and fell on the asphalt. Here's the damage...

Homemade

Earlier in the summer I tie dyed some shirts for the kids. I meant to post pictures but forgot. Here are the best pics of the kids. If you want to see Will's shirt just look at his first day of school pics. It is his favorite shirt and he really wanted to wear it for picture day but it was dirty. P.S. Tie Dying is so much fun. Thank you Heidi for helping us make our cool clothes.


We also made these cute onesies to sell at the Farmer's Market in Rexburg.


We made homemade grape juice from 20 lbs of grapes that we picked from Drew's parents vine. You have to dilute it and add sugar but it really is yummy.

Girls Just Wana Have Fun!

This last weekend I went up to Drew's family cabin with 16 other ladies. It was so much fun and I didn't have any kids with me so I got to relax. Thanks girls for making it such a fun weekend.

The first thing we did was go for a 4 wheeler ride to pick some wild flowers and Natalie our resident florist did a wonderful job making beautiful arrangements.


Lots of the girls went home with acrylic nails compliments of Karalee.


It was so fun to hold my friends babies, because I didn't have Kate with me. I love Tessa's smile!


Some of the group. We took this picture after a couple of cars had left.

Painting Isabelle's Room

Last month when my sister Jeanette was here we painted Isabelle's room. Here are the before and afters. Well, I didn't take before pictures but you can at least see the blue flower wall paper in these.

Will's First Day of School

Will's first day of Kindergarten was Friday, August 21st. He got to ride the bus to school and home and when I asked him how his first day went he said "Great!" He is really enjoying school and likes his teacher. He goes to all day Kindergarten on Monday's, Wednesday's and every other Friday. It has been a big adjustment to not have him home on those days and Isabelle was pretty sad the first day but Kate is now getting old enough that they can play together. I can't believe how fast he has grown up.
