All of October

Some how the whole month of October got the best of me, so this is going to be a really long post tune in and out at your leasure!

 The first part of the month was a trip to see the old sister.  Mom and Dad were kind enough to come along so that I wasn't the pregnant lady with three wild kids, instead I was the pregnant lady with three wild kids and two old people, Just kidding.  I have friends that moved to Colorado this summer, so we hooked up with them at a Boondocks and had a good time.

 The kids got to play miniature golf, as you can see Elleree is a pro.  They rode bumper boats, raced cars, played lazer tag, played in the play land, and played a ton of video games.  It was a long day.

 

 Next day we went to this super cool park/museum it has sculptures and other cool things made out of junk.  This guy has all this land, and junk and lets people walk around and enjoy themselves.

My kids really liked the place where they had instruments they made a ton of noise.  They had huge chimes, and horns anything that would conduct sound.

 My mom even consented to have her photo taken.  I think she is adorable with the kids, but she hate having her picture taken.

 The kids of coarse have no problem having their pictures taken. 

 Who's huge kid is that?  Oh yeah that is Allison's 1 year old, isn't he adorable!

 We had to have some cousin loves.  We had a good time visiting them, too bad they are not closer!

 When we came back Jason had made trip to the place I like to call (The house that will not sell) and picked these pumpkins from his garden.  They are amazing and I have to say Jason was very proud of them!

 One weekend we got to have Paisley and Ivan come for a visit.  Most of the family doesn't get to see her very often, so I put some picture here of her.  She is quite the little independent thing and doesn't like to have a picture taken!  She is super cute  though!

 We carved the Pumpkins for family home evening one night.  Jason was so happy we didn't even have to pay for them this year.  I made Truman help me clean out his pumpkin.  Yeah, he threw up after touching the gooey stuff (surprise, surprise).

 Dillon and Elleree were all over cleaning the pumpkins and carving them.

 Truman's "vampire bat" as he called it.  He was very proud of it.  Elleree went to bed because she wasn't feeling well, Jason finished carving hers, and then we put it in her bedroom as a night light she loved it.

 Dillon and his completed pumpkin it was also a bat.  Don't even ask me about the no shirt!

 All three pumpkins and some really fearsome boys!

 We had so many pumpkins that the kids were able to pant a pumpkin as well.  They are quite the artists.

 For Halloween we went to a Trunk-or-Treat with our ward on Friday.  The kids enjoyed that.  Then on Saturday we got up early and went to Mackay.  We went trick-or-treating there and also went to the carnival.  I was extreamly bumed not to throw my anual Halloween party it has been 7 years now that I have been doing it.  We just didn't have the space, money, energy, or the friends/family to do it this year.  I missed it terribly, and hopefully I will be able to do it again next year!!

Elleree my little dinosaur, she picked this costume out by herself and wouldn't take off the hat all night!  Dillon was the grim reaper, but got made if anyone called him that because the costume package called it some sort of phantom.  Truman was batman, and of coarse we couldn't be the batman we already hat the costume for oh no, don't ask me why he kept sticking out his tongue.
