Too much TV!!

I just came to a realization that maybe we watch a little too much TV during the day. Ayden and Austyn were just playing when Ayden attempted to take a tractor away from Austyn. Austyn started screaming "swiper no swippy, swiper no swippy!!" WoW! Can you say to much Dora!!haha I didn't think we watched it THAT much!! And to make it even funnier, Aydens response was "ohhhh...it's ok sweety, I will give it back in a minute!"LOL

Friends!!

Our long time, and much missed friends came to visit us on Saturday! I have been begging them to come visit since we moved back here! Dave and Cody are like two peas in a pod! And Mind, can't say enough about her! She is the sweetest, most gorgeous girl I know! They brought their darling kids with them, so Mindy and I took the kids to the Dino museum while Dave and Cody headed out to blow some stuff up with guns and a little thing called Tannerite!! They also got a little prairie dog hunting in as well. The kids had a fun time at the museum!

Gage...the sweetest baby EvEr!!Alyssa...can't say enough about this sweet girl! The boys were SO tired after a long day with no naps! I thought this was too funny! On Sunday it was pouring rain, but we still managed to go watch Dave and Cody blow up a toilet! It was pretty cool! We had such a great time with them all, just wished they could have stayed longer!! And why didn't I get a picture of their whole family together?? Too busy I guess!! Thanks Mind, for letting me steal some pics from your blog! Can't wait until they get to come out again!! Once I can figure out how to upload the video of Dave and Cody....I will!!haha

Trick or Treat!!

The kids were actually excited to go trick or treating this year! The past couple of years they haven't been to interested, they were too young. And we lucked out that neither of them were sick this year! It always seems that one of them has been sick on Halloween!! Ayden loved his pirate costume and poor Austyn, you can see how he left the house, in a t-shirt and shorts! He wanted to be Elmo, which was Aydens costume last year. Well lets just say that my little Austyn in quite tall for his age. The Elmo costume was a 2t, should fit hu?? Nope...it didn't! He couldn't even walk let alone sit in his car seat!haha So we headed off to my cousin Camilles house to rummage through her kids past Halloween costumes! We found this darling, comfortable puppy costume and he was thrilled!! They were so funny, they would get their candy and have it eaten before we got to the next house! Can you say SuGaR RuSh??This is how poor Austyn left the house!!

He LoVeD his puppy costume! It even barked!!

Carving our punkins!!!!

We finally got around to carving the boys pumpkins at 10:30 last night! Nothing like last minute hu?? They have been so anxious to carve them ever since we picked them up at their grandpas house. My grandpa Lynn grows them pumpkins every year, and this year he grew the big huge ones. The season wasn't to good for pumpkins around here, we only got 3 big ones and a handful of little ones. We had my dad go pick them up from grandpas house with the tractor because the boys LoVe to ride in it! We could have easily just thrown them in the back of the truck, but Ayden thought it would be fun to haul them with the John Deere of course!! Thanks for growing us our punkins grandpa Lynn!! Halloween is tomorrow, and we are barely ready for it! Where did the month of October go??? I guess I better run to the store and get some Halloween candy!Ha!! And don't you love how Ayden is picking his nose in this next picture!!haha

I went back out this morning and grabbed a few shots in the day light!! I love Halloween!!!
