Fall Fun {so far}!

Lots to catch up on...WARNING: Picture overload! 

 We've been to Chuck E.Cheese's...



 Bouncin' Bears...
 Bowling...




My Dad/Pa-Pa came for a visit. We decided to hit the Museum of Natural Science and their dinosaur exhibit. It was great! And luckily enough we were standing in line to buy tickets, a guy walked up to us and gave us a coupon to get in for free. How great is that? Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the exhibits. The kids loved the dinosaur bones and no, I don't mean Pa-Pa. (ha-ha)! Pa-pa enjoyed the seashell exhibit, my personal favorite was the "Jurassic Bark", pretty amazing! And the trilobites! Very cool!












 {Looking at the 4-wheelin' magazines Pa-Pa brought, picking out which they liked best}

And...
We went to the Old Christmas Tree Farm, went for a hay ride, kids played in the bouncy house and slide, and the little pumpkins took pictures with the pumpkins. After the pumpkin patch we ate at Hooks Airport, fun to watch the planes land and take off.










Grammie and Aunt Kimi sent us some fun Halloween treats!


We went to the drive in...
So fun, perfect weather for it! Had a great time, kids loved it! 


Halloween Shrinky dinks from Aunt Kristi--
I'm not sure who had more fun with this, me or the kids?!


 Another pumpkin patch to actually buy our pumpkins, this time...







 Pumpkin Carving time...
Of course Abby wanted to paint her little pumpkin princess purple. Ethan painted his Ironman...





 Aaaaaarrrrrrrggggghhhhhh! These pumpkin guts are gross, matey!




 Church Halloween Trunk or Treat...
Ethan is a ninja (well technically he's a Power Ranger but he doesn't know what Power Rangers are and he thought it was a cool ninja costume) and Abby was Cinderella. The trunk or treat was kind of hard for me because it was on what would've been Amber's 6 month birthday. And I was missing having our little monkey, or bee, or pumpkin or ladybug or whatever she would've been dressed up as, with us. But the kids had a great time and got lots of candy!





 Alex and I actually dressed up this year too. 
 Fun and Games before the trunk or treat!

 Alex the alligator hunter, notice the (drift wood peg) arm and the killer alligator in the net.

Trick or treating in the hood...

Oh what wonderful memories you are making together! I'm sorry Halloween was tender. It's hard not to dress up our little ones isn't it... thinking of you with love...
