trick or treat

trick or treat already? it's seems like it was just the beginning of october. we have lots of celebrations in october so it's seems like time flies. as you know we celebrated our anniversary
(here, here and here) and my girl turned 7,
so with all of her celebrations and her party prep (i'll be posting
about that next), i almost forgot about halloween. not really because we've been putting together costumes along the way, so i knew it was coming, just wasn't ready for it to be here so soon. anyway enough rambling about time and where it has gone because it's here and my girl is trick or treating as we speak. the little fella fell asleep so he's with me while i pass out candy and for the first time we have trick or treaters! take a look at our first halloween in our new home. oh and have i told you? i love it here!





pumpkin carving earlier today.

one of our pumpkins had pinkish colored seeds. we determined it must mean it's a girl.

my girl designed and carved her pumpkin.

the little fella's pumpkin. he made a wave. he always makes a wave when he draws.

i wanted the kiddo's to pose with their pumpkins.
for some reason garrett wanted to pose like this.

avery in costume and scoping out the neighborhood for fellow trick or treaters.

she got her candy bucket, but no shoes.

the little fella was just barely hanging on, so while we waited for our friends to come over we cuddled on the couch. that's when you know who fell asleep.

sleep won't stop this lalaloopsy from trick or treating.
she was raring to go.

happy halloween friends!

it's been a long time

yes, folks it's been a long time. too long.
the reason being that right after halloween...



we took a family vacation to kauai. we spent two relaxing weeks
uninterrupted from cell phones and/or computers to enjoy eachother.
it was very much needed for our family and i am so thankful we were able
to spend so much quality time together. i have so many pictures i want to share
with you, so for the next few days i will be posting a "kauai series" of all the
fun things we did. glad to be back!

pumpkin time

last week we visited the pumpkin patch with our home school group.
we brought a wheelbarrow full of pumpkins home. we added white pumpkins
to our bunch this year. i think they will be a good addition to our halloween decor.
now i'm usually all for traditional jack-o-lantern carving but i saw this pumpkin village
while i was perusing over at ohdeedoh. what to do, what to do?
happy carving friends!
