Snugalicious

I know, I know, I know pretty creative huh!!!? I wasn't going to dress up and then I was out with my friend Jenn and we saw Snuggies so I had the idea of going as, 'Snugalicious!' Found these zebra ones and we were set.

They aren't very comfortable to get around in and your butt hangs out the back but it was a nice try, I guess!!! Yes Teri, I have pigtails!!!!

Happy Halloween

Trunk-or-Treat

First let me remind everyone that last year I grounded Cameron from Halloween....when I think back to last year, it was pre medication and really probably wasn't fair but I had to follow through with the punishment I gave, and I did! So this year not only is Cameron excited but so am I!

Cameron and his BF Garret are Super Mario JUNKIES! They want to play it 24/7 and if they aren't playing the actual thing, then they are talking about it non-stop, or make believing different adventures. So how fitting that Cameron is Luigi this year and you'll never guess who Garret is? (on a side note: Miriam is deep in wedding stuff right now and she still took the time to put C's costume together....thank you Mim)

Cameron's friend Lauren came along for the fun. Her brother Donny was going to join us but he got the flu.

Pretty Witch!

and here they are.......

at the trunk-or-treat there were lots of games and opportunities to get lots of candy

I was so proud of Cameron he never let Lauren's side and introduced her to his friends.

Cameron has some fantastic friends......

fun, fun. fun!!

This weekend we have 4 parties to go to and I actually got a costume....so stay tuned!

Pumpkin Patch 10'

I've been hearing about Spooner Farms a lot this year and decided we needed to try. Today was Vicki's birthday and so we spent the afternoon with her here! I've got more pics of all of us but I need to get them from Vicki!

They had really cool spiders made out of hay bails throughout the whole place.

I guess this is a tradition....see here!

Cameron was actually letting me take his picture...shocker! That morning he prayed that the sun would be out so we could go and guess what? It rained all morning and then was clear skies!

Finally found the one and it only cost me $3.95

They have this area set up where you can shoot mini pumpkins at a target. Vicki got us on video so I'll upload when I get from her.

Of course I have to get all the gross guts out and then Cameron carved away!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Life is good

Went to an Enrichment activity last week and made a few crafts. I love crafts that are all ready to go and all I have to do is paint and glue. I made a SPOOKY set of blocks and a set that says HARVEST. I have a great set of shelves that is the prefect place to display them.

Let me tell you about the pumpkin....my mom painted that for me back in 1992 or 1993. She sent me a halloween box when I was away at Ricks College and that was one of the gifts. Because he has a big round nose he's top heavy and doesn't stand up on his own--he's meant to be hung on the wall. See pic below to see how I got him to stand up.

just needed a thumb tack and some dental floss and he's good to go
