This is Halloween....BOO!

A fun thing about October is the plethora of Halloween songs that we get to sing, but it isn't so pleasant when they get stuck in my head...all month long. For many reasons, I am actually glad Halloween is finally over. It lasted over a week, with friends parties, multiple trips to the pumpkin patch, ward trunk or treat, then another friends party. We ended the week with WAYYYYYY too much candy. Three freezer bags full...stuck way in the back of my freezer where mom cannot reach it without removing all the frozen vegetables. But my kids had a blast and that is where Halloween is just so much dang fun.

Reagan made sugar cookies and rolled them and cut them all by herself. She loved it, they tasted so-so and keeps asking when she can make "playdough" cookies again. Nolan happily licked the beaters of the dough and left the hard work to sis.OK, this is his face he makes lately. Cute, huh? All bashful and shy, yet mischievious at the same time.
We were blessed with a pretty princess, a binkied Batman and a mean old witch. Oh and Matt was "Jack Johnson", an ensemble of jeans, t-shirt and flip flops.

I was able to attend a field trip to the pumpkin patch with Reagan's preschool class. My, how cute. It was fun to put faces with names.

It only took her 15 seconds to find "the one."

Here is Reagan smothering her friend Katie.

We also went to the patch with Addie and Josh. Laura and I attempted some cute kiddie shots, but most of mine turned out like this...kids running here and there :)

Some were decent...

Some were silly...Addie would agree with me.

Some were just too obsessed with handling the pumpkins.

And some resulted in weird smiles like this, but still dang cute, huh?

Well, we are paying the price this week. I don't know if it was all the late night partying, the candy or just being around so many people, but both my children are sick right now. Our first day hanging out home was fine, I got to tackle some indoor projects while they laid around and it was sort of nice. Now I am going insane. The whining, the messes, the complaining, holy freakin cow, someone GET ME OUTTA HERE!!! But honestly, better now than in 2 weeks when we will partying in Utah.

LOVE TO ALL!!! Here come the holidays...
