Happy Fall!!!

Tonight is the FHE before Halloween so what does that mean?

PUMPKIN CARVING TIME!!! It was really cool this year because PG and PD were able to gut it themselves. PG even cut the eyes and nose himself. And this year, I roasted the seeds to perfection! I LOVE FALL!!!!

The other night we had our annual Halloween party. The 2 pregnant woman....Aren't we cute!

Truly our KING Jon! with Obi Wan David

Our handsome Knight/ Dragon Slayer!

Not 1 but 2 princessess! Our Kingdom is truly blessed! (Tahlia and PD)

and what kingdom is complete without an adorable little fairy! She walked around showing off her cute little skirt. She is a girly girl after all! and SO DANG CUTE! :o)

Happy Haunting!

Happy UN-Birthday Girls!

We had an UN-Birthday party for our exchange students... They chose a Harry Potter theme!
YOu can't have a HP party without a bubbling cauldron!
The cake was rice crispy's with a chocolate clay "frosting" I made the sorting hat, the Nimbus 2000, and the flying snitch!
pizza....YUMMY!!!
Pizza, cake and laughs
Nadia, Lu, and Drika
Happy UN-Birthday!!

Happy Independence day!

I guess they loaded backwards so we will relive the day out of order...
PR didn't care for the noise but she liked the lights and was fine as long as she was held and felt safe....holding her ears helped too :o)
We got exchange students that weekend too. They never saw snow before, so we took them up to a ski resort and we had a snowball battle. it was great fun! :o)
We miss you Lu, Drika and Nadia!
We went to a little party with a friend's family. IT was super fun!
The girls had fun playing with PR and PD on the swings...we also taught them a little game called "Duck duck goose.." it was funny!
and of course they all want to see East High where High School Musical was filmed.

Swim time...

a little jumping action...
it finally got hot enough to warrant getting out the pool. It has been wet and cool so far this year, but when it finally hit 90, it hit it hard!
doing a somersault into the pool.
I love the reflection on this one...
a ripply reflection...of a cute girl!
This one didn't make it to the pool that day, she fell asleep eating lunch...I guess it was time for a nap, so I put her in bed! :o)

lagoon 2011...

Here we go again....:o) I tell you I have a bunch of thrill seeker kids....they all wanted to ride the roller coasters...even PR!
Here was PR's first. She giggled the entire time!
She was ALL over riding whatever she could. This one was fun cuz they all could be in one together.
Waiting in line is apparently boring...:o)

my little driver....
driving miss daisies!
so content
flying!
the girls too!

Ding-Ding
and last but not least the bumper cars!
and a little walk through the splash pad on the way out.
PD and I also rode an "adult" roller coaster...when we got off she looked at me and said "Wow, Mommy that was Awesome!" Then with PD talking about it, PG decided that he could brave the big one. (the bombara) too...he too thought it was cool!!! They were sad to leave. It was a great day!!!

Farm Country....

KJ took the day off from work and we went and had some family fun! We headed to Thanksgiving point and tried out Farm country. It was AWESOME!!! The kids were so good and they LOVED IT!! Check out these smiles...
Daddy showing them how to use their knuckles instead of their fingers to "get to know" the animals.
Look at those pros!
PR was actually squealing with delight at the sight of every animal...I think she was most excited to be out of the stroller and running around.
They had a mini town that the kids could go in...this was the dance hall...cutie pants dancers!!
then there was the jail...they are even cutie pies in jail! hahaha
I think she is innocent...just ask her as she runs away laughing!!! :o)
they had an activity that you could go make ice cream in a bag....yummy!
happiness in a cup
YUMMY!!!
Ok, I didn't really eat any since I am mostly sugar free, but KJ had to take a pic...I was just feeding PR.
She is so stinking cute!
they also had a game that when they knocked down the bottles they got a prize...he missed in this was, but it was a great action shot.
PD just took a shot while she was still setting them up...but she got 'em
Then there was the pony rides....she did SO good and she giggled the entire time...I think we have an animal lover on our hands. :o)
PD sang and laughed...she loved it too...
Mr. Big stuff just did it all by himself...He is growing so fast!
lastly was the ring toss for a lollipop. PG actually got them on...for only a foot or two away but still he threw it and it went on..
PR was just doing a dance with the hula hoops! "You know for kids!"
