Halloween - Picture Overload

Well, even though we got the Swine flu, we were still able to have a good Halloween. I took a ton of pictures after we got dressed up to go to my family Halloween party, and I had to share. Gavin was a cute little bear because he is always growling like a little bear.





I always knew that my sweet Hailey was a pretty girl, but after putting make-up on her for her Glitter Witch costume, I realized what a gorgeous girl she really is. We are in serious trouble when she is a teenager. This is my favorite photo of her all dolled up with her curls.


What a pretty little witch!

I had to share this funny picture of Gavin. My aunt bought Hailey these balloons, and Gavin just looks like he is ready to say, "cowabunga!"

I took the kids to Cornbelly's this year with Mariette and Leslie. We had so much fun that we are determined to make it a tradition. Here are the girls after they got their faces painted.



I wish we would have gotten a group picture with Mariette also, but we forgot. :( here is Les and I holding the boys on our tractor ride.

The kids were scared of the tractor ride... it was actually hilarious.


Hailey and Kendra got to dress up as princess' and take pictures in the carriage.

We also got to go to California, but I forgot my Camera, so I will have to get those picture's for you later. I hope you all had a happy Halloween.

Christmas... Already?

Kids and Halloween Fun!

We've been so busy with life lately, and I don't know what we are really accomplishing, but it seems like I am always asleep before my head hits the pillow. I have taken on a bunch of odd and end's job's lately, which has kept me a little more pre-occupied. I have noticed that because of this, Hailey watches a little more TV, and I have been feeling guilty. It's a little cold to send her outside now, and the only extracurricular activity that she has is dance, so I have been trying to be creative. (Even if that means Gavin has to cry a little bit longer... guilty again!) Most of Hailey's friends all now have "schedules" between preschool and all that, so I am doing my best to keep her entertained.
I bought some fun Halloween masks at the craft store, so we did that the other day:


We have been going to the Library a lot, and this is the fountain outside the Library, where most of our pennies go.


Photo shoot are always fun!

If you have any other idea's, please send them our way. I think we are going to try and hit the Zoo and Cornbelly's this month if any of you are interested, just let me know.
