Well first, we had a primary activity at the temple and I took family pictures. Luckily Blake arrived just as we were leaving so we got a family picture too.
William says take me home to bed!
Some friends had a little Halloween party at our playground. The kids had lots of fun.
James was a Pteranadon, which Isaac wore last year. Love it!
Isaac made a police car which I helped him paint. What a handsome policeman!
William didn't dress up this day but there is a picture later on
For James' birthday we had a party at the playground. James really wanted a friend party but when it came down to it he really just wanted to stay home and open up his presents which we hadn't done yet. So we forced him to go to his own party!
I think only Isaac liked the scavenger hunt. James certainly wouldn't do it.
James requested ice cream sandwiches. Easy for me.
I also let James pick out one thing from the dollar store and he picked these party blowers to give out. Good thing the party was outside.
Finally it was time to do our family party with cake and presents. I let the kids decorate their cake for their birthday--they like it and I don't have to do it!
James was thrilled to get some batmobiles, batman legos, and a put-together plane, etc.
One of these October days we carved pumpkins.
James picked out this design that Blake painstakingly carved. It's supposed to be a skull. But then of course he was just mad he didn't have a face like Isaac's.
We had fun at a pumpkin farm. Isaac wanted his picture taken at about 10 different favorite pumpkins.
We let the kids do a tractor train ride.
Eating lunch
Cute William! Somehow I cut it down to only three pictures to post...
This is the one picture I took of our ward trunk or treat. William needed to nurse and it was just crazy busy times.
James checked out a book from the library that showed how a boy made a birdhouse so he insisted we make one too. We had some extra wood so we put one together. Of course the best part is painting it.
Oh, there's a good picture of that cute skeleton! This is Halloween. William went to bed at 6 so I stayed at home with him while Blake took the kids trick or treating. It was kind of sad.
Isaac and James got tons of candy.
This is blurry but I love these guys stuffing their faces when they got home!
Playing in a "bird nest" with friend Oliver.
Celebrating Andrew's birthday
Playing a favorite family game--trouble.
It snowed! The best part was eating it, apparently.
William used to love this thing. Now a month later he's kind of over it but it was a great entertainer for a few months.
