October Fest

We did so many fun things this October. One of our favorites was going to the corn maze. We went with my sister Tara and her family and also Grandma and Grandpa. They had so many fun things to do other than just the maze. The kids had a great time.

This was a giant jumper. It was huge and really safe. I want one in my yard now!

They had this cow/tractor ride and at first, as you can see, Abby did not want to go on it but she had so much fun and then made this same face when she had to get off.

I had to ride with her and she looks a little scared in this picture but she had a blast. It was such a creative idea the way they attached each cow. The cows would move up and down as we moved making a really fun ride.

We got lost many times and eventually had to ask the workers how to get out. Grandpa was socializing with some old friends and went his own way, of course he got to the end just fine!

The whole crew

Halloween

Mike and I went to an Adult Halloween party, we were forced to dress up and this is the end result. We even added some chest hair for the added effect! It was actually really fun! If any of you have seen the TV series "That 70's Show" I think Mike looks like the one of the girl's dad.

Abby's first time carving pumpkins. She kept calling them apples when she couldn't remember the word pumpkin!

Abby didn't really get into the spirit of Halloween at first with the whole costume thing. I originally bought her the cutest chicken costume but she absolutely refused to wear it, even when I would bribe her with candy. Grandma Bonnie finally bought her a costume she thought Abby would wear. It was a much better success even though she still refused to put the butterfly wings and antenna headband on. After seeing other kids dressed up she was much more excited.

Our finished pumpkin!

Michael, always in good spirits.

We went to Grandma Bonnies 1st to get the traditional chili dinner and show off costumes. Coordinating pictures with both kids was asking a little much.

This is Abby and her friend Kensington from across the street. We finally got Abby's wings on for this picture.

At our ward party we found lots of other little monkeys. They all looks so cute!

We had such a great Halloween!
