Halloween Party

We went to Daddy's work for a Halloween party. The boys got their costumes on and tried their hand at a few games. The event was full of fun: Basketball, soccer, frisbee, calk walk, & Balloon animal station (aka ray gun). We were thankful that it wasn't too crowded!

Disney on Ice

We were the beneficiaries of tickets to Disney on Ice this weekend! The boys had a fantastic time. I wasn't sure how they would respond to such a big production. They were awestruck. I don't think they blinked at all. They were so excited to see Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Donald on the ice. They both started yelling "Hi Mickey!" when they saw him and were a little disappointed when he didn't respond. We had to explain there were too many kids for him to talk to them all. The boys were mezmerized by the story of Princess and the Frog, Cinderella and Rapunzel. I tried to capture the intense focus on their faces. And now to continue saving our quarters so that we can visit Mickey Mouse's house in California someday.

Tumble Class

We learned how to hop skip and jump all around the mats, beams and cushions. Even Logan enjoyed a tumble here and there.

Pumpkin Cake

My Aunt Laura came over for dinner the other night and brought the boys these fun pumpkin cakes. They were so tasty! Although, Nathaniel did say after a few bites he wasn't going to fill up on just sugar and would finish his milk.

Shoo Fly Dont Bother Me

These boys are well qualified to protect their momma with the "Sly Fwaters" now that they have found and dealt with any remaining fruit flies from our apple adventures last week. I feel so safe now!

Pajama Party

Aunt Betsy and Uncle Stevie had a great idea... a pajama party. We invited the family over and watched the Bee Movie after pizza of course. We should do this monthly. I can't wait till our next one!

Apples

We got a box of apples and decided to make something fun! The boys loved using the apple peeler/corer/slicer. The process took a bit longer but it was worth the excitement.
