Pumpkin Picking...

Yes, I'm pretty late on posting these pics. In fact I'm late on posting a lot of pics here lately. And why am I posting these at 1:00 in the morning when I have to get up bright and early for a yard sale in the morning???

I hope that my kids look back on the simple memories we've made and are making and that it makes them so happy that they will tell their kids about them one day.

Macey had a cute "little" pumpkin that still got too heavy for her to tote. That or either she just used that as an excuse to not have to carry hers...which wouldn't surprise me ;) 

(and yes my hubby wears his wedding ring, it's just on his right hand b/c he has lost so much weight it doesn't fit his left hand any more.  I am thankful that it means enough to him to at least still wear it some where :) 

Not that any of you probably would have even noticed! 

Often times I have thought about how neat it would be to live out in the country.

I love how the guy who was cutting our pumpkins off the vines (is that what you call it) gave us long stems on the pumpkins. It gave them some character.

We met up with some friends. Pumpkin picking is more fun with a buddy.

This photo makes me think about how dirty our car would be all of the time if we lived out in the country.

Thanks for stopping by...that is if I still have any blog readers left :)

Punks, Pirates, Monsters, Monkeys...

That's what my kids were for Halloween.

Actually Alex and his buddy didn't dress up they just went as themselves "punks" and yes, they did actually Trick or Treat for candy :D

Oops, no picture :(

Allison was a "Monster Bride" If she had been wearing her hat you would be able to tell that she was in fact Mrs. Frankenstein.






Madison was a girly, punkish, pirate, although everyone thought she was a gypsy.








Macey, well I think you can tell what she was, she was a little GIRLY monkey...notice the bow!!!

This photo below was actually from the night we went to the library, so here, Macey has a red bow when Halloween night she wore a pink one.

Look closely at Allison's hat...see the bolts on the side?






We went with some friends and rode on the back of a trailer. Oh, how COLD it was, but so much FUN!




After Trick or Treating we came home and had pizza and finally made our Gingerbread Haunted House. It was taking so long for the icing to set up so we just gave each kid a piece and told them to decorate that. It turned out pretty fun and I'm sure they made some memories this night.





I think our pumpkins this year turned out pretty good.
(my green one is suppose to be Frankenstein, NOT the Hulk;)



This was my first year to carve a pumpkin :D Not sure why???

Jack Skeleton = Warren's

Mickey Mouse = Mine

Who's do you like better????










They're even cooler at night :)







That wraps up our Halloween night.

Can't believe it's over. Looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas:D
