Trick or Treat!

Hooray for too much candy and sticky faces! Wes tried to eat his candy as he got it. At one point, he was trying to carry his binky, his bucket, his light saber, and had candy in his hands too. To Maddie, it was old hat. She had to show her brother the ropes. The picture of the pregnant nun and her padre was from a party we went to the night before Halloween. Happy Halloween, everyone! Now I gotta go eat all my kids' treats while they sleep...

Pumpkin Patch

What is fall without a trip to the pumpkin patch?? Especially at 9:00am with pre-schoolers. The kids had the best time ever, even if most of the pumpkins were rotten! But we managed to find some good ones. Wes kept saying "mine, mine" and wouldn't let go of his pumpkin even though he could hardly carry it.

Lloyd Christmas

Is it me or is there a resemblence? Justin and I thought so. Gotta love hair cuts by mom (with school scissors..).

Trunk or Treat!

It was our annual ward Halloween party- the typical chili feed and trick or treating. I decided to try my hand at being a seamstress. I have a feeling it won't be my last but certainly I was cursing my decision late Friday night when Wes's costume was not even started and I had a Saturday, like most of you, with a million things going on (did I mention we FINALLY finished painting the walls In the kitchen and living room? I will post some pics soon) Anyway no bragging rights from this unsavvy sewer- however, I was pleased people could tell what Wes was supposed to be, but I am positive it was the light saber that did the trick. Maddie, on the other hand, wanted to specifically be Princess Leia "from the END of the movie, mom!" And therefore refused to wear the signature side buns and opted for a bridal veil. Why argue?? My favorite pic is of my little Jedi and Yoda fighting. Also, I did not know Minnie Mouse was a vampire??
