Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

Last Night we did our pumkin carving. We had fun going to the pumkin patch and picking out our pumkins. Brock of course had to find the biggest one there and I warned him that it might be a little hard to carve! He of course had his mind set and nothing (or no one) was going to change that. Chantel was having way to much fun playing in the seeds and goo; she said I feel like a zombie with all these strings on my fingers:)

Brock in the end was left all alone cleaning and carving his because his was so big! But He did a good job at not complaining and did and awesome job carving the pumkin!




Daddy got to help Kade with his! Kade was wanting to take out the seeds one at a time and that was driving Kirt a little crazy ! Kade had seen pictures of the Disney Mickey Mouse Pumkin and wanted his to be like that, so we found a picture of it and dad carved it on Kades Pumkin!

I hope everyone has a safe and FUN Halloween:)

Last Friday's Fun...

Last Friday I took Kade to the Fair! He had fun riding the carousel, I think the look on his face says it all! He also got to play in the sand and fly an airplane! The whole reason for going to the fair was so that we could see Chantel Perform in her schools choir and orchestra! They did really good and I was soo proud of how Chantel did!

It's a Give Away!!!

4th pict on 4th File

This was fun to do! I saw on my Sister's blog that she looked up the 4th picture of her 4th file, and thought I would just see what was in mine! It brought back a flood of memories! So I had to post more than one picture. The pictures are from when Kade was three months old and learning how to grab for things, and Brock had just turned 8! We had family from Colorado and around AZ down for the Blessing of Kade, and Brock's Baptism. It doesnt seem that long ago ! It was fun to see just how everyone has changed!

Go ahead and try this! It would be fun to see what you all come up with:)

Today's fun:)

Today we spent the day with three of my sisters and their kids walking around Superstition Farms! It is always fun to see little kids around animals!

This is how ...

Our Watermelons are growing! Each day they get bigger! The kids are having fun seeing the watermelon grow and seeing what it takes to get something to grow. Hopefully we can get at least one one them to grow big enough to eat it!

I thought I would share ...

Did you know that you are supposed to "put on the brakes" when you see a red light, Go as" fast as a speed racer" through a Green Light and finally "Speed up and go faster" through the Yellow Light? I have a very serious back seat drive who tells me when to do all of these things! Kade was helping me drive the other day, and I must have done something right because he said I was a GENIUS because I figured out how to go and stop and when to speed up! So I had to share my knowledge with all of you (since I am such a smarty at driving) so you would know!

I may have to follow his suggestions when I drive because it was his Auntie who is a police officer who taught him how to drive like that!
