And maybe something else

Coming...

"This is Halloween!"





My sisters and their kids were here for Halloween this year.  It was a little too much fun. :)  We trick-or-treated at my Dad's work, and then again Halloween night around my parents' neighborhood.


Introducing... Ethan as Martial Arts Guy

 (I'm a little baffles by this picture... I see Kaleb's feet, but that's it...)

Nathan as Lightning McQueen.


Dad as Construction Worker.


Kaylee as The Strawberry.
Brynn as The Watermelon.


Bradley as Buzz Lightyear.


Kaleb as The Ninja.


Jaden as The Pirate


Kare as... Medieval... Looking... Lady


Julianne as... Peasant... Looking... Guy... With Really Awesome Hair.

  (Thanks Jules for bringing all the adult costumes!  :)  )

Here we are at Dad's work, making the rounds. the little kids lasted about 30 minutes.  The older kids... an extra hour at least.


 Then we went out Monday night around the neighborhood...  These girls were such good sports!





Oh yeah, Charles was a... Flamboyant Looking Pirate. And I was a Tavern Wench.


 Happy Halloween!

 Halloween Sunday


This month, Jules and Kare came home for a visit.  Kare was so excited about these bowties that her friend makes and sells, that she got them for all the boys.  And then she taught me how to make these rolled flowers for the girls.  Soooo cute!  Ethan and Kaylee should have been here, but the poor kids were sick during the photo shoot. :(  At least we got Nathan.


Charles thinks I'm crazy for trying to take group shots.  He says I always just end up frustrated and mad... He's right.


But as time passes, these pictures become funnier and funnier...






 Here's Ethan checking out his holiday loot from Aunt Kare...

They decorated their pumpkins... my style. No mess, no clean-up. Thank you, Kare!


A few days later when Kaylee was feeling better, we tried again to take their pictures together.


Brynn is such a lady.


And Kaylee sure didn't mind taking pictures BEFORE getting fed... not at all.


 Take 3...
 


Buddies already :)

"One Question..."


"ummm... exactly why do we have to wear this get-up... if we're not even allowed to eat the candy we're workin' for... hmmmm?"






"Ahhh... that's better!"
