Halloween 2010

Last night we took our crew downtown to trick or treat and we tried our best to get a picture of Buzz, Tinkerbell, and the monkey together. The rest of the night was spent standing in line or running around, so no pictures of that.

Tonight was trick or treating in our neighborhood, so we had friends over to join us. Here's our crew, plus another Buzz Lightyear all geared up and ready to go.

Monkey Boy

Since everyone else had pictures made in their costumes, Sam certainly didn't want to be left out. We put on his costume after nap today and snapped a few pictures of the cutest monkey ever!

Laughing - I love it!

Oh, and does this picture . . .

remind you of this picture taken when Jack was only a month older than Sam is now?

Buzz

Jack got to wear his costume to school today and he only told us at least 5 times yesterday that he was "so excited" to wear Buzz to school. He was actually so excited that he couldn't even eat breakfast this morning!

Showing us Buzz's "wings."

Tink

Anna got to wear her Halloween costume today to a party and she chose to be Tinkerbell. Yesterday her dance class wore costumes and she was Belle, so who knows what Halloween will hold.

Flapping her wings.

Pumpkin Patch

We headed out to the pumpkin patch this morning with our MOMS Club friends. It's actually not a real pumpkin patch, but a church that sells pumpkins and offers a story time. However, that's too wordy for us so we call it the pumpkin patch!

The best out of several attempts to get a picture with my children.

Look how cooperative my kids were when I asked them to sit on the pumpkins together so I could get a picture of everyone.

And then here they are again on a swing looking at the camera all at once - just like I asked them to!

Can you sense the sarcasm here?

Story time!

Showing off his pumpkin - I think he chose the smallest one out there.

This is how Anna showed me her pumpkin.

So we tried again, later.

Snack time on the steps for some of the kids.

Enjoying the Weather

It's still a little warmish for fall, but we're definitely enjoying the slightly cooler temps these days.

Yes, he can climb all the way to the top by himself. He thinks he's four instead of one - that's why the side of his face looks the way it does with scrapes and bruises!

All three of our little monkeys.

Oh, and my baby is 17 months old today. Happy 17 months sweet Sam!
