The Messes They Make

So last night I went up stairs to feed Logan and told everyone else to get ready for bed. Of coarse Brett decides to have a styrofoam fight with the kids. It was hard to be mad because they were having so much fun, yet it was bed time and once again Brett was not getting the kids calmed down. Brett said that was the most fun he has had with the kids in a long time. I told him I hope he has as much fun cleaning it up.

Halloween Fun

Happy Halloween and oh I'm glad it's over. The kids tell me it was the best Halloween ever and I have to agree it was a pretty fun and busy month. From our block party to our ward trunk or treat, down to Brett's work and Halloween night, the kids collected a ton of candy. Thanks to Kristine for the idea of giving each of them a gallon size zip lock bag and letting them keep what ever candy they can fit in it. Which is still a lot of candy. Anyway here they are all dressed up and ready to go.

Halloween Block Party

Well we had our 1st annual Halloween block party. The kids had a blast and it was a good chance to visit with our neighbors. There was fishing for ducks, bean bag toss, cupcake decorating, caramel apples, hot chocolate and a bunch more. Some how I missed a picture of Luke. If you look real hard you can see him by the bouncer. We have done so much already and yet we still have our ward trunk or treat tonight and Halloween coming up Friday. I don't know if I'm going to make it. Sugar over load...

Pumpkin Patch and Pumpkin Carving

Off to the pumpkin patch to find the prefect pumpkins. I think Brett found two cute little pumpkins...

So about a week later we carved our pumpkins...

New Logan Pictures

Just had some pictures I wanted to share.

What Happened to September?

It seems like just last week school was starting and before that we had Logan, But now here it is almost October. What a busy month and I'm sure you all feel the same way. I just wanted to do a quick recap of September. So here it is...

The kids all started school.

Ellie & Ian started soccer. Here is Ellie at her first game and she scored a goal.

Logan had his first bath and everyone wanted to help.

Ian turned 6 and had his birthday party with all his friends.

And Logan had his one month check-up. He is sure putting on the pounds. He weighted 11 1/2 lbs and grow 2 1/2 ins. And continues to be our sweet baby.

Well I think that's everything but I'm sure I missed something. See you in October...

Luke's First Day of Preschool

Luke had been wanting to go to school for the last year. Of course having a sister and brother in school didn't help. Everytime I would pick up Ian from preschool Luke would ask if it was his turn now. So I was excited to tell him that now it is his turn. He seemed a little nervous at first but once we were in the classroom and he saw Mrs. Spencer he started to smile. I knew from the look on his face he would be okay!
