Halloween

Picking pumpkins at our friends the McBride's.

Yep this is the one I want!

Carving Pumpkins!

Jake with his Smiley face pumpkin, which Taycie helped him color.
Ty with his Spider web, which Dad helped him carve.

Then we headed to the Pumpkin Walk.
We waited for an hour before we even got in, but the kids had fun running around.
The cut outs are always a huge hit!

Ty sure makes a pretty princess!

This one makes me laugh.

On Friday night we went Trick or Treating at my Dad's office.
Our little Princess! Some day her Prince will come.
But for now, I guess her cousin will have to do.
The grand kids sure all love their Papa!
After we went to our Aunt Denise's for a Halloween party. Her two grand daughter's were there and we had a lot of fun making mummy dogs and playing games. She has been so great to have us over every year!

On Halloween we went to the mall Trick or Treating. Taycie always had to have a piece of candy in her hands, she was not a fan of putting them in her basket. If we would take them from her hands she would throw a royal fit. This is her, "don't even think about taking my candy" face.

Jake as a skeleton. I'm sure you wanted to see him in his underwear but the day before we saw this skeleton costume at the D.I and the stars aligned and he had to have it! I was relieved!

Ty as Iron Man

Then we headed to Lee's for yes, more Tricker Treating!

And then we went to the OTHER Lee's, for Yes, MORE Tricker Treating!

Then we headed home and went out for MORE, yep you guessed it! MORE Tricker Treating!

We headed out with their cutest Kitty cousin Addy. We probably went to like 40 homes. By the time we were done, it was way past the kids bed time and they were dragging behind and couldn't take it any longer. We couldn't blame them, their buckets were very heavy and they had been doing it all day! The torture we put them through, the poor things :)

But thy weren't complaining as they examined all their loot! I asked them which treat was their favorite. The results, the pencil and the eye ball glasses. Great, more treats for me!

Boy do I love Halloween! Or is it the treats I love?

Why I Blog

You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of these meaningful and significant things. Some of them may be funny. Some may be of significance only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience." ~President Gordon B. Hinckley

"To you women of today, who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many--now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings."
-President Gordon B. Hinckley

WHAT"S THAT YOU SAID?

Me: "Ty what did you learn about in church today?"
Ty: "Transformers"
Me: "And what else"
Ty: "oh yeah I forgot, Transformers AND Chucky Cheese"

Ty: "You want to take a race."
Me: "Your really fast, how did you get so fast?"
Ty: "Well when your best friends a cheetah."

After Taycie's poop leaked all over me.
Ty: "That sure was funny to me mom, but probably not funny for you."

Ty: "You know that one guy, Jesus's brother."
Me: "You mean Satan."
Ty: (shaking his fists) "Yah, I'll teach him."

After Ty's little crush dropped off a thank you card. He shut the door and said.
"I want to kiss her, How can I kiss her so that nobody will see me?"

Me: "Ty, hold your horses."
Ty:"I can't, I took them to the mountains and let them go."

Me: "Ty, do you know why you were in time out?"
Ty: "Because my brain made me do it."

When Ty was supposed to be sitting in time out he was playing the piano instead.
Me: "Ty what are you doing? Your supposed to be sitting in the timeout chair."
Ty: "But I'm playing "broken heart" because nobody likes me."

Ty: "I want to be an astronaut when I grow up"
Me: "You can be whatever your set your mind to be."
Later that night
Ty: " I give up being an astrounant, I've been waiting all day and Jesus hasn't made me one yet."

Ty: "I want to go down stairs and play a video game with uncle Jeff."
Me: Jeff can't today he has a new baby so can't play."
Ty: "Babies ruin everything."

After Taycie was born she was laying in her cradle and I caught Ty whispering in her ear.
"I'm your big brother and I'm going to teach you how to crawl and walk and when your big like me we can go on adventures."
It was so sweet.

Jake has loved is baby sister ever since she was born. The morning after she got home from the hospital he walked in our room, patted her on the head and said, "She's so beautiful. Now he likes to greet her with "Hey girlus!" or "Hi sweetie"

When Taycie was cooing.
Me: "oh that is a big story."
Ty: "Babies can't talk."
Jake: "Yes she can, she speaks Spanish."

Jake was sitting on the porch with a statue of a little girl on a bench and I heard him talking. I asked him what he was doing.
Jake: She's my other sister, I talk to her but she can't talk back."

I asked Jake to go and get something for me.
Jake: "No problemo, coming right up."

Ty and I were sitting on the porch swing.
Me: "do you hear all the birds singing?"
Ty: "Yes, it's music to my ears!"
