Pumpkin Patch

 Last month, I went on Andrew's preschool field trip to the Pumpkin Patch!





 It was a beautiful day and he had so much fun with his friends!




 We picked our pumpkins to take home!
 But not before playing lots of games!

Andrew's preschool class! Happy Fall ya'll!

Pumpkin carving!


 Jim and Christian love to carve our pumpkin together each year!
Andrew is not really into wanting to help yet, so he and I just watch and eat candy! :)
Christian drew the design on the pumpkin and Jim helped him cut and clean it out.




 Andrew wanted his picture taken with the pumpkin too. 

While Jim thought it would be funny to turn him into a pumpkin head! haha! Happy Halloween!

Halloween parties GALORE!

We had lots of Halloween activities this year! It was so much fun!
The boys dressed as Woody and Buzz Lightyear. They were SO cute!


Our first Halloween party was at Brianna's house soI decided to dress up too and joined in the fun! 
 

 Brianna and her little brother Bryson
 (Bryson is wearing Andrew's Yoda costume from a couple years ago)

 Pippy Longstocking was at the party!


 And my friend Julie's daughter Nora was a gypsy!

 The kiddos painted pumpkins and played lots of fun games!

 Christian and Eli (his cub scout friend)

Such a handsome Woody!
 
 
Andrew had his Tiny Tots preschool Halloween party!



 Each child got up in front of the class and showed off their costume! Andrew was so proud!

 Mrs Misty's 3 year old class!

 They also decorated their own pumpkin cookies!

 and played games like toss the bean bag into the pumpkin...

 and grab the marshmellow with your mouth!


 His favorite game was spraying the water gun into the pumpkin to put out the candle!

I loved being able to be there for his fun party! 

Later that day, Pops and GoGo came up to join us for trick or treating at Jim's office.




 The boys love following the candy trail through all the cubicles in Jim's office.

 We had to make a stop at Jim's desk to for the boys to explore!






Andrew was really into trick or treating this year! Great memories!
 
This year, our friends Dara and Allison hosted a Halloween party at Dara and Zach's house. 
It was the first time Jim and I dressed up for a party since our college years! 
 
 Susan (troll doll) and Brandon (Octoberfest guy)

  Blake and Audrey were a plug and outlet. Hilarious!

 Allison was a fairy and Aaron a Zombie Hunter

 Dara and Zach were a loofah and bar of soap! It was the best couple contest of the night!

 
Jennifer and Dan were Christine and the Phantom of the Opera! So cool!






 Kellie and Matt were a policeman and inmate. Funny thing is Matt is REALLY a police officer. Kellie wore his uniform! ;)

 Dara went ALL out when decorating for her party! She put blood in the shower, covered all the furniture with sheets like an old abandoned haunted house. She had skeletons laying on the beds and changed all the pictures on her walls to scary old pictures. It was WILD!
 Dara had several "minute to win it" games and we all had a great time! Allison cooked some fabulous food and I ate so much my cape could barely fly me home. ;)
