Fall Fun

Before Thanksgiving gets here I better post about our Halloween.  The day before Halloween we went to my brother and sister-in-law's house for a cook out!  It was a perfect fall day, a little chill in the air making a fire perfect.  The kids loved running all over outside and played so hard.  We watched football (my brother brought his TV outside for the occasion), ate yummy food, and enjoyed great company!

Helping carve the pumpkin!

Jump house fun

What boy doesn't love playing with sticks?

We had enough chicken to feed an army :)

The kids dressed up...

Riley is a butterfly and Quinn a puppy.  He would say "woof, woof".

Picture with the cousins!

On Halloween we got the kids dressed up after dinner and went trick-or-treating.  We just went to a few houses but the kids loved it!  At our next door neighbor's house (the 1st house) they figured out that people were putting stuff (I don't know if they realized it was candy) into their buckets and Riley kept signing and saying "more, more".  So our neighbor thought it was so cute and couldn't refuse her and kept giving her more.  We finally had to tell Riley all done and have her say "thank you". 

The loved carrying their pumpkins and putting the candy in them.

Aunt Cricket had a big bag of candy for them each! 

She spoils these kids :)

Sitting on Bella and eating a sucker, it doesn't get much better!

We thought they may want to ride in the wagon, they would rather push and pull it!

It was so cute how they were working together, and their pumpkins did get a ride :)

Happy Halloween!

When we got back to our house the kids were a little wired (sugar high) so we let them run around outside for awhile before bed.  At one point Geoff and Quinn were walking in the cul-de-sac holding hands.  Riley wanted to go join them and she and I walked up holding hands.  We told Quinn and Riley to hold hands and they did.  It was so sweet and there were all were holding hands and walking around together.  It just melted my heart and made me so thankful for my beautiful children! It's one of those memories I will always treasure :)
