HAPPY HALLOWEEN--TRICK OR TREAT!!

Wow the kids hit the jackpot this year. I was going to take a plastic bag to empty their buckets in but didn't cause last year there weren't many houses. Well wrong!! Almost all the houses in the subdivision behind our house was passing out candy. The kids loved it, Cassie was running from house to house saying trick or treat, thank you. Little Darren would say treat,you (that was his thank you).

Halloween Costumes

These aren't very good pictures but you can get an idea what the kids costumes look like this year. Cassie a cheerleader and Darren as Mater from the movie "CARS". I'll hopefully post more tomorrow, we go trick-r-treating tomorrow.

This was Darren's first tractor ride on October 6th. Can you tell he didn't know what to think.

Nice fall weekend

What a beautiful weekend. The kids enjoyed riding bikes and playing outside while we still can. I love this weather but don't like what is behind it unfortanely.



Boy, Darren is a pro at riding Cassie's bike. He is having a hard time sharing with her cause it is hers. Once he is on he won't get off unless you pry him off it is cute to watch him ride around.

Cassie riding her bike, time to upgrade her to the bigger one we have now.

Glow sticks

Remember glow sticks. The kids got them from a lady at Kmart today. After they figured them out they were twirling them around, that is why they look funny in the pictures. Darren ended up chewing one and got glow all over,in Cassie's hair, on my clothes,his clothes and the floor too. What a mess but really cool in the dark. Cassie was throwing a fit though to get it off.

Pumpkins

After having our pumpkins for 3 weeks now we finally decorated them.

Kids own haircuts!!

I guess you shouldn't leave kids alone when there is a scissors nearby. I left the room for a few minutes and came back to finding hair on the floor. Cassie blamed it all on her little brother. Then she told me she cut her and Darren's hair. They both just had haircuts 1 week ago, so you couldn't tell on Darren but Cassie cut it in the back and left a nice little chuck out. Oh well, all kids do this right?

Kids being goofy!

New haircuts

Since we ended up surprising my parents, we decided to stay with them for the night. I called Cassie off school and I played hooky from work too. Mom ended up treating the kids to new shoes and new haircuts, what a great mom.

Just some crazy pictures from this past weekend

Cassie being goofy (I think she was dancing and singing Reba and Kelly's song Because of you)

Is this the next puller in the family?

The kids surprising everyone @ the last pull of the year for our Dad. It started out like any other Sunday till about 1:30pm I relized dad had his last tractor pull and I had only made 2 pulls this year. So me and the kids packed up cause Brian had to work and went surprised my mom and dad there. My youngest sister ended up coming too so we surprised her too. Had a great evening but really cold.

Homemade salsa!!

Well since our garden went nuts with tomatoes, I decided to make homemade salsa. Of course the kids had to help too, they were very patient since it seemed to take all day to do this. Oh well maybe next time it won't take as long and I won't have to run to the store 2 times either. I should of been better prepared but didn't realize 8 cups of banana peppers is alot of peppers.

Look a like meter for Cassie
