Happy Halloween!!!

We had a great and very busy Halloween. We went and got a load of wood in the morning. It was the girls' first time and they loved it.


Here are a ton of pictures of our busy fun day!


Camo getting her face painted

Kenzi and Kooper all dressed up and looking cute.

The girls and Great-Grandma Nicoll

Trick or Treating at Grammie's

Little miss Lady Bug, Rapunzel and Wendy

Katie's family was the cast from Peter Pan. I didn't get a picture of them all together, but it was pretty killer.

This is Chantz's costume(my idea)...he was a fat 'chance'

Katie even made a 'tower' for Rapunzel.

Nash was my very favorite. He was an airman. LOVED IT!

Carving our pumpkin

She did it....

She survived her first day in nursery!
She walked right in and when they said her name she turned around and walked right out!
I left immediately. I couldn't listen to her cry.
She was fine the next time I checked on her. No tears, just a little leery of everything.
When she came home she smelled like perfume...I think poor sister Peters had to hold her the whole time!

Some of my faves

Why is it that only moms want to take family pictures?
The kids cry and whine and the dad's do this......

Ok. Maybe not everyone has to deal with this guy trying to make you laugh.

We got some really good pictures this time, thanks to Colleen and Linde!

Until I post the good ones, here are a few that won't make the christmas card

These ones kill me, watch Camo's facial expressions. Colleen was just snapping away and Cam was posing like crazy.

Summer Wrap Up

The weather is changing here, something I am excited about since Vegas is mostly just a really long and hot summer. I love the feeling in the air and everything we get to eat from my parents garden. This really is a great place to live!
But before we start carving our pumpkins and shoveling the snow I have to catch up on our summer.
Daniel built a fence for our backyard. Maybe I am just not used to the 'country life' but I was worried about my girls wandering endlessly. Dan also planted grass in the backyard. Don't we have a great view.

The creepy crawly creatures we find our endless! (not necessarily my favorite thing).


The girls love to help me make breakfast. They insist on it, which usually ends up in a big mess. But they love it...and so do I. They are good helpers!

LOVE this one.
How many peas do you think those hands have shelled in 90 years?

We went on a hike with Grammie.

Grandma took Cam to her first movie in a theater.
We watched Toy Story 3.
She loved it, but she did say it was a little scary ;)

She didn't weigh enough to hold her seat down, she just folded right up.

I think i am almost caught up with all our summer fun.
Bring on Fall
