Halloween

Halloween this year was a lot of fun. We went with Brett, Bindy, and Skylee to our old neighborhood. My parents also came down. Both Sydney and Lizzy know how to trick or treat; and William just followed them around, saying thank you at every door. I am so blessed to have such sweet babies. They are such a joy, and so much fun to watch in all the excitement. Lizzy initially was supposed to dress up as Fire dog Marshall the dalmatian from the TV show "Paw Patrol". That it didn't go over well when it came time to get dressed. So we just put her in her princess Sophia dress.  Which was a little to long, so all night we were trying to make it shorter. I also died the girls hair with pink and green temporary spray and added some glitter on. They loved it. It was colder then I thought it would be so I really wish I had brought coats instead of jackets. After an hour or so trick or treating, we got in the car and headed to Spencer's house downtown. Which the house was really cool, but after five minutes I wished we were still with Bindy Trick or Treating. So we took Sydney and Lizzy around to a couple houses. After that we got in the car and headed home. The kids were tired. After getting back home I realized we did some damage to it, and so Bindy told me how to sew it up to make the dress shorter.

Brett took this picture, and i was so sad he chopped off Jakes head.

Harvey Halloween Party/October Birthdays

October 28, 2017. The party was at Julie's house.  The kids always love the Halloween party. This year we painted pumpkins, did a couple games, and had a pinata party. William really got into the pinata, and hated letting someone else have a turn. It was so fun to watch Lizzy with the pinata, and Sydney had a such a fun time, but I really need to teach her how to swing a bat. The girls had a great time dressing up. While I was jumping on the tramp with the kids, the screen of the trampoline broke with me on it. William was terrified, and I was totally embarrassed that i broke the tramp. After the party we did birthdays. My sweet little Lizzy is such a joy to watch open gifts. I am so grateful she is appreciative of everything she got. She really impressed the family with her reaction. Tami ended up giving her a Barbi first, and she just screamed and said it was "adorable". Which of course everyone thought was so super cute. But everyone thought they would have no chance of her liking their gift after that one. She proved them wrong. Much to my surprise and joy. She told everyone how much she loved her gifts right away.  

We had a really good time this year. Can't wait til next year.
