Halloween

I got so focused on Steven's Birthday that I never posted the kids in their Halloween costumes.
Daizee was a pumpkin.
She really loves this outfit and now wears it as a coat! She hates the cold weather and this is a really warm outfit. But she wouldn't go for the hat that came with it.
Sawyer was Tigger.
He stayed toasty warm and happy. It had rained all day but cleared up by time we went out to trick or treat.

Seth was Ben 10.
Its a show from Cartoon Network. He had to have a "mask free" costume for school and he loved having a wild hair do!

Sam was Wonder Woman.
I have to admit I was living vicariously through my daughter. I wanted to be Wonder Woman but she looked better in the outfit then me.

and Sean was Phantom, from Phantom of the Opera.
He has been a fan ever since we went and say it at the Paramount in Seattle.

Carving Pumkins

We were late in getting into the Halloween mood this year with Brian being out of town and I not knowing up from down lately...

I had to work so Brian took them to the pumpkin patch, but they had nothing! They suggested that Brian just take them to Albertsons. So he did. He said there wasn't even a real good selection there.

I was a little bummed out with this report but once I asked the kids they were just as happy with their pumpkins as ever!

The next night we carved them up. Actually, Brian and the kids did, I fed the baby.

Seth wasn't too excited about digging pumpkin guts out. "It's yucky"

Sean watched TV and did pumpkin guts at the same time!
In the end we had glowing, scary pumpkins in time for the trick or treaters!

Seth's Field Trip to the Pumkin Patch

This is Seth's first year in preschool! I kept him home last year since it was going to be our last year together before Sawyer came! His school does a field trip once a month. This one was to a local farm/pumpkin patch. His dad took him and they had a great time!




This is Seth as a Pig! This is Seth ON a pig! This is Seth with his new friend!
