Halloween 2014

We all had a great Halloween this year!  It was Grey's 1st Halloween and he was a zebra (all my kids have worn this costume).  He was also sick with a nasty cold....poor little zebra:(
Sophia was Pochahontas and Gavin was Spiderman.  They both had a blast trick-or-treating with Daddy while Grey and I stayed home to hand out candy.  The kids brought home lots of candy and were wild with a sugar high...figures:)


Our sick and crabby little zebra.


There is a little bit of a smile:)


He loved playing with the candy in the candy bowl:)





Love this one!

Sophia is happy with all the candy she received.

Gavin enjoys a couple pieces of candy.....and later....the sugar high kicks in.

Me and my baby zebra.

Pumpkins

 We were so fortunate to get several great pumpkins this fall from my Uncle Randy who grew them at his farm.  Here are the kids with those perfect pumpkins...


  


 Grey likes the pumpkins:)




 Love this one!

 Soph loves her pumpkin!


 Gavin and his really big pumpkin.


 Daddy helped the kids carve their pumpkins....and they turned out....

 Awesome!


 Proud kids with their pumpkins...they are pretty lucky that their Daddy is such a great artist/carver.

 Gav getting in the "spooky" spirit:)

 Me, my kids and the pumpkins.
Thanks Randy for the awesome pumpkins!

Trip To The Cabin 2014


 In October we made our annual family trip up north to the hunting cabin.  It was Grey's 1st time at the cabin.
The weather was pretty cooperative so that was nice. 
 The kids all had a blast as they usually do....they just love going there and look forward to it all year:)
Here is Daddy with all the kids giving them a super fun ride!

Little Grey exploring the grounds....



What a cute little bundle!

Daddy is all ready to go out hunting for the evening.


Those 3 kiddos sure love their Daddy!

I spent some time outside with the kids after Patrick went hunting.

Now it was Sophie's turn to get behind the camera...

Nice picture taking skills Soph!

So much fun!


The next day it was time for rides on the 4 wheeler.
Daddy and Sophia go first.



Grey even got his first ride on the 4 wheeler...he didn't seem to mind it:)

Gav loved his ride with Daddy!


We  picked a few apples from the apple tree.

Grey was very interested in the leaves on the ground.

So much fun!

One thing that I always look forward to doing at the cabin is painting my nails....I know that sounds kind of strange but...you have to find something to do when you are waiting for the hunters to return, right?
