Weekend in Colorado


Our last trip was to Pagosa Springs Colorado to visit Tony's dad and Muriel. We had an AWESOME time! We helped Mike set up his Halloween decorations for his upcoming annual Halloween Bash. I knew he was into Halloween but never imagined how many decorations he actually had! We spent close to two full days helping him set up & we still didn't get everything out.

We decided since Mike & Muriel live on 5 acres of land (not sure if that is right, but it is close) they should create a Haunted Forrest...it is really spooky at night! I didn't get pictures of the outside...maybe another time!

The boys LOVED this spider..kind of creepy to me


They have faces placed on random trees around their property..the boys thought they were the coolest thing


Ok..there is a LONG story behind this picture. I will give you the short version..that creepy crawling guy SCARED the crap out of the boys. They have a very HIGH tolerance for scary things..we always wondered what would freak them out..now we know. There faces say it all.


This skeleton guy has a remote. Isaac had fun driving the skeleton around the floor..


We decided to dress up this year with the boys for Halloween..these are the two costumes that Tony tried on from his dad's collection. We decided on Gandolf.






Thank you Mike & Muriel for such a wonderful weekend! The boys still won't eat the bloody finger fries...they still think they are real fingers!

Jon LOVES the finger fries! He wants some in his lunch every day. He likes freaking his friends out.

I love the picture with the zombie guy. Muriel looks a little freaked out too. Ashley picked that out for him actually even though it scared her too.

Thank you so much for all the help! Still haven't got everything out yet, but more than last year. It was fun watching the boys enjoy themselves as well as scaring the @#*& out of them
