Halloween

I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween. This year I thought it would be fun to paint our pumpkins instead of carving them. I had to paint Minnie Mouse for Taylor since she loves her and I'm sure you can figure out which one is Jake's (the pirate with braces!)


I wanted to dress Taylor up as a Fairy but she wouldn't put the costume on so I had to tell her she was Abby Cadabby from sesame street then she was excited!



Whit wanted to be batman so I made a cape and hood with bat ears, it didn't turn out quite what I was picturing but he loved it anyway.


We had a ward Halloween party & trunk or treat. The kids had fun wearing their costumes and seeing all their friends.




I took the kids to a pumpkin patch with some friends. They had fun picking out their big pumpkins, riding the tractor, climbing on the pumpkins, and I enjoyed watching them trying to find their way through the hay maze!


Their were a bunch of scarecrows and other funny/scary people throughout the pumpkin patch. Taylor was so interested and scared of them but I got her to give this one a hug. And Whit found this hat from one of them and had to put it on.
The pumpkins were almost as big as Taylor!

Whit's in Preschool

Whit started preschool this fall, how did he get to be so big!! He has been loving it, especially since he goes with two of his best friends. Whit loves when we car pool and the kids get to ride together, they sing and laugh the whole way there.

This boy will not smile for the camera, so this is what we get for his first day of school picture!

He gets a little better when he's with his friends, Samantha and Teegan.


Of course he is smiling now... He's holding Samantha's hand, aren't they cute?!
