Halloween 2015

This Halloween we did some pumpkin carving in the morning, spent some time at Urgent care with my husband after he sliced his finger open while carving pumpkins, then we went to our friends house and did a little neighborhood party in their front yard. We BBQ'd hot dogs for whoever wanted them when they came by trick or treating, we also offered hot chocolate, hot cider, and roasting marshmallows. And a few drive way games (which mostly our kids played). We had such a great response from everyone that came by; we were so happy we were able to reach out to the neighborhood like that. In between hanging out at their house we took the kids trick or treating and they had a blast.

Getting all the goo out!

The boys!! Little Brother had a batman costume but wouldn't wear it, so we dressed him up in his football clothes and he was happy about that.

4TH of July

We spend most of the day on the Fourth at our church. They had a big grand opening for the park they built next door and had all kinds of activities for the kids to do that day. They did horse back riding, played Gaga ball, kickball, had face painting, snow cones and much more. They even had a dessert making contest (Hallie and I won second place for cookies/bars!!) Everyone had so much fun. After that we went back to our house and did some fireworks with friends. A perk of not living in city limits is we can finally have fireworks!

How many people does it take to light a firework??

The Tank firework- the boys like this one.

This picture is blurry but it makes me laugh.

Searching for more unused sparklers cause they cant all be gone!
