Falling Leaves

Our little backyard trees have gotten really big in the four years that we have lived here. We have accumulated a lot of leaves in the yard and their are a ton more still on the trees. We decided to rake some of them up and had to take some time to jump in them. Trey missed all the action since he was napping. We will have to do it again when the rest of the leaves fall.

Happy Halloween

Trey was Peter Pan, Sydney was Tinkerbell, and I tried my hardest to convince Blake to be Captain Hook. I gave up and let him be Bumblebee from Transformers. Halloween was a lot easier before my kids were so opinionated. We had a good time at our church's Trunk-or-Treat. The kids got a ton of candy and we were especially blessed to have Nana and DaDaw with us for the weekend.

Pumpkin Carving Time

We had a great family home evening at our friends house, the Newmans. We had a girl jack-o-lantern and a boy jack-o-lantern. Sydney said that she liked her pumpkin because it had a scary bow. I didn't plan for the bow to be scary, but I must admit, it was a pretty scary looking bow!
