Update with LOTS of pictures!

I've gotten a bit behind on updating the blog. So here is a recap.
For Playgroup a couple of weeks ago, (Oct 21st) we went to PumpkinLand. This was such a fun place! Too many fun pics, so here is a slide show.



The weekend before Halloween our friends Emily and Ben had such a fun Halloween Party. They seem to do this each year. The kids decorate trick-or-treat bags, get a tattoo and a popcorn ball, and their garage is always extremely decked out. This year they had a strobe light going and it was a mini spook alley. The kids loved playing tag outside! Their fogger bubble machine is my favorite thing. Here are some pics from this year.


With Halloween just around the corner we decided one night to make jack-o-lantern pizza for dinner. The kids each got to make their own face. They LOVED doing this!

More Halloween stuff....we also made sugar cookies. Kyler make a cat and Jaden made a ghost!












I love that Kyler's is so bumpy because he didn't quite know how to use the rolling pin, and the cat is missing a leg because he wasn't very careful with the cookie cutter. But he did it all by himself! Jaden looks so proud of his ghost!













For Playgroup on October 28th we had a Halloween Party. The kids played Pin the Face on the Pumpkin, decorated sugar cookies, and had a little art activity as well.


















































What a good group of kids! I couldn't believe we were able to get them all to stay still for a quick picture! They look great in all their costumes!

The day before Halloween Doug Smith Auto Mall was having a trunk-or-treat. So we went to that as well!











Here are the boys all ready for trick-or-treating!
Jaden wanted to take some pictures of his scary mommy!











Here are the pumpkins we carved!
If you want the update for this picture you'll have to read the next post! Here is Jaden at the hospital Tuesday night. He got so dehydrated from throwing up Monday he couldn't even keep ice chips down! :( So we had to take him to get IV therapy. (At least Daddy brought the XBOX!)

Here is what Kyler looked like after getting home and changing into not-so-bloody clothes after getting stitches!
And here he is today! Those stitches sure are bugging him! :) He goes in tomorrow to get them out!

WOW! What up update! Hope you grandparents LOVED all the pictures!

LOVE seeing all the pictures - quite the make-up job on Spiderman! I expected a big bruise also on Kyler's forehead - he's pretty durable! Hugs to all!
