Too Early?

I know it's pretty early, but we already put up our Christmas tree. We bought a whole bunch of stuff last year after Christmas, so I was so excited to get it all out. I love having the house decorated for the Holidays, but the clutter feeling is already getting to me. I hope I can stand to have it all up for another 31 days!

I did it ..again!

I always say I am growing it out, but I was sick of it..ready for a change. I cut it all off..again! Surprising...I know! I guess this means I actually have to do my hair, no more putting it up everyday!

Face Painting

He won't wear a Halloween costume, but he will allow a stranger to paint his face........What?

He is definitely a 2 year old!

We took the boys to a Fall Festival last night with lots of fun bounce houses, slides, a rock wall, snow cones and cotton candy! I didn't have my camera, but here are the pictures I took of their faces when we got home. Tanner's Tiger face and Kaden's Spidey face.

Just Cause It's Funny

Kaden trying to hold Tanner's head up to look at the camera...this picture cracks me up! I bet you can just imagine the scream that came out!

And then it turned into this.....

Happy Halloween

Cute boys in their Halloween shirts

Kaden wanted his face painted so he didn't have to wear his mask trick or treating..so here is my best attempt at a Spidey face.

Ready to carve their pumpkin

We waited for Aaron to get home to carve our pumpkin
(he had been gone all week on a business trip)

Kaden pulling out the pumpkin guts...of course Tanner wanted nothing to do with it..he hates to be messy!

Mommy and Tanner hanging out watching the boys carve the pumpkin.

Tanner and our finished pumpkin.

We went back to our old neighborhood to hang out with our friends Jeff and Judi and let the kids trick or treat with some of their friends.

Trick or Treating

Fall Party with the Kindergartners

Yesterday I had my first official "room mom" experience. I helped out at Kaden's class fall party. We painted pumpkins, decorated cupcakes, decorated treat buckets and made candy corn bags. It was a lot of fun to finally meet all the kids that Kaden always comes home talking about. I give so much credit to all the teachers out there...I really don't know how they do it. 19 kindergartners at once...oh man...let's just say after a couple hours, I was exhausted.

Tanner was so excited to go to the party but he feel asleep on the way there..I thought he would wake up as soon as we went into the classroom, but he didn't so he spent most of the party sleeping on the floor!

Trunk or Treat

My cute friend Tabitha invited us to a Halloween Trunk or Treat. The boys had a blast playing carnival games, playing with friends and getting lots of candy!

My costume-less, fit throwing, if I even hear the word "costume" 2 year old! Aww..but look at that oh so sweet smile! :)

Spidey Kaden

My friend Tab with her Addison and again, my fit throwing child. (This one was a 'oh no, somebody other than my Mom is touching me" fit)

Tanner, checking out the goods in the candy bag!

"Open it, Mommy?"

Kaden and Tanner (still checking to see what he gets after each trunk)

A happy boy with lots of candy!

Visit with Grandma & Grandpa Snyder

Aaron's parent's came out for a long weekend earlier this month. We went to St. Augustine for the day, had a little Halloween party for the kids and they even took the boys overnight so Aaron and I could have a date night. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa..we enjoyed our visit with you and hope you come back soon!
