November 2011

Like a lot of time lately November went by in a blur. Thanksgiving dinner was spent with the Cotner's. Our yummy dinner was at Jen and Drew's home. After dinner, there was a round of good old fashioned HORSE. 

 

Of course we played in the leaves! What else do you do in November?

 Does it look like Colton had fun?

Evan just keeps growing like a weed! Although only 3 months old he barely fits into his 6 month clothes...

Halloween 2011

Colton had so much fun this Halloween! He was a pirate and he loved every minute of being able to carry around his sword! He even wanted to sleep with it. On Friday night our ward had the Trunk-r-Treat at the church. There was a great turn out of people and lots and lots of yummy soups. Colton had everyone quite entertained during the whole thing and when Evan woke up we showed off his Santa outfit (he out grew his original Halloween costume of a tiger). Saturday night we carved pumpkins, I asked Will to take some pictures but he forgot. Oh well. Then Sunday night we had the Halloween party at my Moms. We had pizza, played games while the younger kids played outside and watched Scared Shrekless and Monster vs. Aliens. It was a very fun night! Monday night was trick-r- treating! I think Colton had the most fun this night. He got the hang of it very quickly and everyone thought he was just so cute! He did run into a few peoples houses that I didn't know and we would have to chase after him. He got tons of candy because everyone thought he was so cute! There were more than a few people that were so glad we brought Colton by for trick-r-treating. It is so fun to be a parent and watch your kids get so excited about everything!

Getting his makeup done.
He was really ready to go!
Super baby!

Pumpkin Point Farms

This year we decided to go to a pumpkin patch to let Colton run around and pick out his own pumpkin. I found this place called Pumpkin Point Farms online. They had tractors for the kids to climb on, a tractor ride, a child's corn maze and lots and lots of pumpkins. They have wheelbarrows to use while picking out your pumpkins. Colton had fun riding in it.

On the tractor ride!
