Halloween 2014 - Trick or Treating

This year we went Trick or Treating with our new neighbors; Trevor (Thing 1) and Adam (Dog).  Isaac was a gangster and Olivia was a Genie.  Miriam also dressed up as Dia los Muertes.

As usual the kids bagged a lot of loot!!

It was cold...look at Isaac's cheeks!

Halloween 2014 - Pumpkin Carving

Well today we finally carved the pumpkin.  Every year the kids do more and more and I do less and less, which is fun.   This year we had a big pumpkin so we also got a lot of pumpkin seeds to bake, which was a nice bonus!

Big Thrill Factory and Grandparents Visit

The temple hosted a fund raiser at the Big Thirll Factory so I took the kids.  They had a lot of fun.  I only took some pictures of them on the bumper cars.

Grandpa Ricky, Grandma Hillary and Lita were in town for Lito Arron's Memorial service.  We all finished a puzzle together which was a nice distraction.

MN Landscape Arboretum

We took some time off for MEA weekend.  One of the nice things we did was head out to the Arboretum.  The fall colors were in full effect and it was absolutely beautiful.  We took the 3 mile drive and stopped along the way to take some nice walks, play in the maze and climb some trees and play structures.

Pumpkin Picking

We went pumpkin picking in Stillwater this year and Grant joined us.  There was a HUGE selection of pumpkins!  We found our biggest pumpkin yet....can't wait to see what we carve.

 Olivia got to mine for gems and she found much more than we expected!

Isaac and Grant chose to find their way through the maze.
