Happy Halloween!!!


We had a very fun Halloween this year. We started off with eating our Pumpkin Pizza from Papa Murphys and then we got the boys dressed up and went Trick-or-Treating. Max sat in the stroller the whole time sucking on wrapped candy while Darrin ran to the door, said Twick-or-Teet, and then after they would give him some candy he would say, "Bro Twick-or-teet" and then he would stick his hand in their bowl, grab 2 candies and put one in the cup holder of the stroller and another one in Max's little treat bag.





The Ferocious Lion (he even Roared!)

The Thomas the Train Conductor

After we left one house, Darrin would get sad and say, "More Candy." So, we'd move on to the next house and he would get more. He was so cute and loved it so much that he asked if he could go trick-or-treating again the next morning. Good Times!

The Goods!

The Potato-Head Pumpkins



Thanks to Troy's mom; this year the boys got to do Mr. Potato Head Pumpkins instead of carving them. They had so much fun with them and it was MUCH easier to clean up.

Troy and I still carved our pumpkins, (although we are thinking of doing Mr. Potato Head's for ourselves next year); mine is supposed to be a cat!

The Pumpkin Patch

This year, instead of picking our pumpkins out at the grocery store or Wal-mart, we went to "The Pumpkin Patch" at Staheli Farm. It's a farm that has a lot of fun things for kids to do. They have a bunch of baby animals to walk around and look at, there is a playground with "corn" as the sand, there's a corn maze and of course, the Pumpkin Patch where you can pick out your own pumpkins.
The boys loved everything about it...Darrin was our "leader" through the corn maze and actually found the way back. Darrin also loved riding on the tractor pulls all around the farm - that's how you get around to the different areas. Max just loved being outside and seeing the animals.

"Hiding" in the Corn Maze (brang back memories of Iowa!)
