Happy Birthday

I did not realize how many of my friends birthdays were in November until I actually looked at the calendar! Today is Trish's birthday! Happy Birthday cutie! See you on Friday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to my wonderful & fabulous friend Amy. Love you!

For fun

HALLOWEEN!

We have been loving the last few weeks. We have been invited to so many different Halloween activities that by the time Halloween was actually here I think the boys were a little sick of it. They for sure need this weekend to recover from everything! Here is what our TO DO list has looked like for the last little bit of October.

1. Laci's Halloween party for the kids
2. Picking & carving pumpkins
3. Decorated cookies at Grandma Linda's
4. Hallween party at Tony's work
5. Visit family before trick or treating
6. Trick or Treat
7. Hallween party at the Thomason's house

Here are some pictures of the activites listed above. Thank you everyone for including us in your holiday plans. We had a wonderful time! :)

Laci's Party

Picking out pumpkins & carving them

They would not touch the guts without someting coving their hands..Not my idea!

Decorating cookies with Grandma Linda




Party at Tony's work




Visiting family

I decided that we are dorks..we visited family but didn't get any pictures of them. Next time!!!

Party at the Thomason's

Yeah..I know their eyes are red but since they are all dressed up as Star Wars characters I thought it kind of fit..that and I am not sure how to change them back. Like my justification?

*** Updated by Tony who knows how to read the camera manual and can correct red eye ***


Thanks Grandpa Dude for the fence! It looks awesome

And finally...

THE LOOT

We hope you all had a fabulous Halloween!

Our poor Isaac...

We had a check up appointment for Isaac today and it turns out he will need surgery. I'm totally bummed about the whole deal. For those of you who do not know, Isaac had tubes put in his ears almost 3 years ago. I guess they usually fall out within the first year. He had one that fell out about a year ago. The other..well..it just won't budge! Once a child hits the three year mark for tubes they have to be surgically removed. They said we can wait until February as that will mark the 3 years. His pre-op appointment is then. Here is hoping it will fall out before then so he doesn't have to go through another surgery!!

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!

Weekend in Boise

We had another fun filled weekend away from home! The trip started off a little rocky as I "wrecked" the car we were taking up to Boise. The car, boys & I are totally fine, but the bumper on our car needs a band-aid as the boys put it. Anyway..no one was at fault as some lady & I backed out at the same time in a McDonald's parking lot. Though there was a witness saying it was the other ladies fault as I was further out when we hit, they were not able to site anyone. Yay!

Once we arrived in Boise it felt like we never stopped going! We played golf, went to Chuck E. Cheese's, played at playgrounds, shopped, decorated for Halloween, visited the COOLEST candy store, played Scrabble & watched movies. The boys were yet again spoiled by Grandma & Grandpa. And..as always I have a TON of pictures that I love.....

THE PARK

HANGING AT THE HOUSE ON FRIDAY

THE CANDY STORE

We had SO much fun! Thanks you guys for an awesome weekend!

Oh..and I learned something this weekend. We now know when we have overstayed our welcome at my moms house. She has three cats who HATE it when we visit. They hide in a closet the whole time. Well..I discovered that one of her cats PEED on our suitcase this morning. I'm guessing he was ready for us to go...

Now on to Colorado in 3 days!
