Pumpkin Carving Party!

After our trip to Maris farms, we had a few people over to carve some pumpkins. Though it seemed to turn into the guys watching the fight and drink while the girls carved all the pumpkins. It was a lot of work, now I know how my parents felt every year.



This is Kuenzies BFF Cowboy!
That is Brayden's pumpkin, yes it is huge, and it took me forever.


But Bradyen did help with cleaning it out.

Kuenzie just walked around entertaining us!




See I told you they didn't help!





STILL CARVING!




And these were final products! I think they look fabulous! Kuenzie was already sleeping but hers is the small one by Brayden's feet.

Halloween Cookies!

I had to make cookies for one of Brayden's Halloween parties today. For some reason I decided to get festive and creative with my baking skills and make real Halloween cookies. As many of you I am not a baker- AT ALL! Even when I buy pre-made cookie dough, they don't turn out quite right. So to my surprise and Rob's these one's turned out really good, and cute looking! With a lot of help from my Sous-Chef Brayden, though he seemed to be testing an awful lot on the job, we made Spider Cookies and Witch Hats! (Sorry for the fuzzy pics, I used my camera phone.)


HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Maris Farms

We ventured out to Maris farms this Saturday in search of the perfect pumkins. The kids had a great time. We usually go to spooner but decided to try this farm instead there seemed to be a lot more for the kids to do. We also got lucky with the weather and the sun came out for a bit.




Miss K found her pumpin!


B found his. Looks pretty big- that should be a ton of fun to carve!



This was actually Friday night, I had found these glasses at the grocery store and the kids got a kick out of them.
The goat tried to eat her hat.

Sand Cabin 2010

This August we had our second annual family vacation at Lincoln City, or as my kids call it the Sand Cabin. It was a great week, and the boys were able to go lots of adventures. Sorry it took me so long to post all of the pictures. We went a little crazy and took over 400 pictures, so it took me forever to go through them. Brayden is already asking when we are going back to the Sand Cabin, he has a long time to wait!







Thanks to Aunt Kelley and Uncle Matt, Brayden is asking for an IPhone for Christmas!
