Halloween

Oh Ryan loves Halloween so MuCh! I got a toad hat on him to match the Mario, Luigi, princess Peach and toadette! The trick or treating this year was kindof a bummer, it was raining so hard we only made it to about 5 houses and daddy quickly volunteered to take Bella back. When Zane and Noah realized he was leaving, they wanted to go to, apparently it wasn't worth it to them... So we went up to my moms, where the Halloween dinner party was about to begin and the kids played with their cousins and ate their 5 pieces of candy.

The ward Halloween carnival and trunk or treat was a hit with the kiddos! Bella loved the idea of just holding out her little basket and people throwing in candy she could have gone all night, and she was not about to let anyone take that basket from her grasp!

umm... my favorite costumes of the year! Handy Manny and the tools

witches night OuT

Witches night out this year was one to not be forgotten... we went to dinner and went to the village, did some shopping and enjoyed the atmosphere. On our way home we got a flat tire and... 6 ladies dressed like witches trying to change a tire... got it going and the jack broke, we got some help from and nice lady who pulled over, watched her drive off and all hoped in the car and the car was dead! thanks to another nice lady we were able to get home around midnight and our stomachs hurt from laughing so hard... love my ladies night out!

While I was gone, daddy took the kids to a halloween carnival with his family and Noah really wanted them to dress like Edward, Jacob and Bella! I thought it was pretty funny! Zane made a perfect vampire even with the added sparkle on his face (that you can't see) but noah needed some rub on bronzer or something:)

a baby shower

me and a couple friends threw a baby shower for my good friend and next door neighbor Melissa! (she is having her 4th boy!)

Everyone that came got to customize a onesie or a bib for little baby Knox, everyone got really creative, it was fun!

our UEA "stay-cation"

We didn't have big plans to go anywhere over the weekend but we played here! We went to see Despicable Me,( so funny!) and went to Trafalga, we went to Gardener village and did the witch scavenger hunt and went to the Drive-in.... at our house!

Zane spent a lot of time on his box/car and was excited to save it for the next "drive-in"

tooth fairy

{pumpkin land}

we went to pumpkin land with my sisters, mom and kids... the kids love Pumpkin Land and we go every year!

Bella even found a black widow to play with....AAAHHHH! (luckily it didn't bite!)

She was climbing on every animal cage she could.

{Craft Night}

We made witch brooms for a fun Halloween porch decoration and Janell's was super big (until Taylor came home to cut it) and we were giggling at ourselves as we lined up to take a picture...We were "carpooling"

{Vegas Baby}

Ryan had to go pick up a couple of cars at the auction in Vegas... so I quickly invited myself to go along! We had a good time, of course, even though it was quick. We rode down in the Jeep and both got so some sun!

{Zane lost his 1st tooth}

He has been so excited about his wiggly tooth for quite a while, dad finally pulled it out! He was pumped about the tooth fairy coming and drew up this sign for his door....

translation: Fairies (check), people (crossed out)

Ryan had a smart idea, and said "ah give him 5 bucks, its his first tooth, then just take it back and take him to the dollar store and let him pick one or two things"... so that's what happened until we went to the dollar store and holding his hand out, said "K mom, where is my 5 bucks, I get to pick out five things, oh ya!" He was nice and bought two things for Noah too!

Grandpa was commenting on his lost tooth and asked if the tooth fairy had come and he told him "ya and she brought me 5 bucks, and it was even a tinesy tooth" with a little laugh.
