Halloween 2014

We had lots of fun this Halloween.  The kids each had a few parties to go to before the big day.  On Halloween we went trick or treating, then to my Mom and Dad's for a party, and then we started driving to California for Disneyland.

We had a skeleton, cheerleader, witch, vampire princess, and a cute little skunk.

Fall Break 2014

We managed to keep busy during the fall break this year.  We went on a hike up the divide with our Jenkins cousins on Thursday.  On Friday, I took the kids to a corn maze and to the fish farm.  We also ate out too much and stayed up too late, which is the best part.

Pumpkin Pizza Park Party

Every year my Mom treats us (my sisters and our kids) to pizza at the park, and pumpkin picking.  It's usually a little chilly, so this year I had the brilliant idea to go earlier in the year.  We froze.  We had to leave the park early, because Isaac blew away in his stroller, and the babies were all cold.  We went to my Mom's to eat instead and then went to the Weston's pumpkin patch in Plain City.  It's a good thing that kids are oblivious to the cold and wet.  They were all sliding around in the mud having a great time!  We all look forward to this fun tradition every year.

Apples!

Jessica's brother-in-law told us we could come and pick all the apples we wanted from their tree.  Jess and I loaded up all the kids and went apple picking.  It started out pretty good.  By the end though, Jess was holding two crying babies and the kids were throwing apples.  

We made applesauce and pie filling.  Abigail has recently crossed over from 'pretty helpful', to 'I couldn't get anything done with out her'.  Carly and Hailey loved "helping", but Abigail really actually did a lot.  She is one hard worker.

 This girl was like a machine when it came to turning the handle and smashing the apples down.  

 The girls get so excited to do all of this together.

 Who can resist a sweet baby in Halloween p.j.'s?

I am going to miss the day when he doesn't fall asleep in my arms anymore!
