Halloween 2015

Leave a reply

This years costume theme. Brought to you by Kaylee ‘s OT recommending Where’s Waldo books to help with her visual perception issues. So the kids got WAY into the books and decided that we should go as Waldo and the gang for Halloween.

They demanded a mini photo shoot before their costumes were complete.IMG_0903

Halloween day we had our ward party. SO fun. They had tons of fun games and a trunk or treat at the end.IMG_0934 IMG_0940 IMG_0944 IMG_0948 IMG_0950 IMG_0952 IMG_0961 IMG_0963 IMG_0965 IMG_0967 IMG_0968

Regan’s loot. And we still had neighborhood treating to do!IMG_0982 IMG_0987 copy

I think we nailed it. IMG_0994 IMG_0996

We got our doorway all set up for our neighborhood treaters and then took off to Aunt Cindy’s for family fun.IMG_1003

Regan demanded a turn “serving the customers.” IMG_1006

Shutterfly and The Wizard. Cutest cousins.IMG_1007

Jon playing Where’s Waldo. He got found a lot. Also it was very clear that most people have no clue that there are other characters. We all got called Waldo. Also Kaylee was labeled a cute boy by all and didn’t love that. She regretted calling dibs on The Wizard, beards are itchy!IMG_1034 IMG_1036 IMG_1039Such a great night visiting with family and the kids had a blast!

Pumpkin carving 2015

Leave a reply

It’s been so hot here that I held off on carving the pumpkin until the day of. The kids did not appreciate waiting. I got everything all set out and ready to go and then made them wait even more while Jon helped me glue my hand. Emptying the dishwasher……. It’s perilous. Also I’m the reason we are a plastic dishes house. Jon has his pyrex bake wear, but everything else is stainless steal or plastic.IMG_0904 IMG_0909

They were pretty darn excited when it was FINALLY time.IMG_0911

Regan, “EWWW! Pumpkins are SO disgusting.” He ran off to his room and waited until the gross gutting was done.IMG_0912 IMG_0915

Kaylee was just the opposite. She got all up in there and was ripping all the seeds out.IMG_0916 IMG_0917

I had them draw what they wanted and carve it mostly solo. Kaylee’s side was vampire guts… Regan did a more traditional scary face.IMG_0919 IMG_0920

Then Kaylee decided to be “that” sibling and gross her brother out. IMG_0921 IMG_0923All in all a win for pumpkin carving this year.

Sometimes we get to watch friends. Basically that means extra long play dates.  This time these friends were stuck with me for a couple hours while Kaylee and Regan were at karate.IMG_0831

They dived right into kid fun when they got home. Which was good because that meant I was done with my running countdown of when Kaylee and Regan would be getting home. I’m not as fun for my kids friends as they are. Hahahaha!IMG_0832

And much to our friends horror I don’t know how to work the wii. I should learn…..IMG_0833Also I have kids. So my house is usually messy. Because that’s just real life.
