Happy Halloween

We had some costume drama at our house….with a 2 year old! I am in for it if she is already concerned about what to wear. She didn’t want to wear her Rapunzel costume, so I put one of Kade’s old Buzz Lightyear costumes on her. She didn’t like that for more than 10 minutes. I think she was hot. She wanted to wear her boots so she was Daisy Duke or as most people called her a cowgirl! Keegan didn’t like his costume very much so he was a football player instead with shoulder pads and all!

The kids had a great time. Kamryn wasn’t very shy at all. She loved seeing all the scary decorations and repeated over and over, “Ooohhh that’s scary!” and “Ewwww that scared me!” she screamed a few times and even started to cackle like a witch! Kade was an awesome big brother and was very patient about waiting for his little brother and sister. He loved all the scary houses.

When he got back he was passing out candy and when they would come to the door he was giving them each 4 pieces so I told him he couldn’t do that or we would run out too soon. So when people came to the door he would be looking out the window and before they even got up to the porch he would say, “Happy Halloween, You can only pick one!”

Go Titans!

Today was Kade’s last Flag football game. Grandma and Grandpa Williams got here early this morning and were able to come watch Kade play. This whole season Kade has mostly been in defense, he had played running back in another game but at the beginning of the season it was like pulling teeth when it came time to actually play in a game. For a few of the games he sat out the first half because he didn’t want to play and then of course he would end up having fun.  Today he got to play running back again. He was so happy afterwards and he did a great job!

Grandpa swinging Keegan  Here is the offensive team coach, letting Kade know that he is going to be running the ball the next time they go in.Kamryn sweet talked Grandpa into a snow cone!

Here he is getting the ball handed off to him.

Getting their trophies.

Way to go TITANS!

Football is now over and next week we are onto T-ball!

Trunk or Treat

Our ward had a Halloween party at  the church last night. Kade has been looking forward to Friday ever since they announced it in Primary. Here are a few pictures before the Trunk or Treat. Surprisingly Kamryn wore here hair during part of it.

Here is a dress rehearsal for Kamryn with her wig. I got the idea from here. I did do some things differently like braids within braids and I used hot glue to glue the yarn onto the panty hose.

 This girl doesn’t like to have her picture taken very much. Can you tell? She is always scowling! Originally Kamryn didn’t want to wear her dress when it was time to get ready. She wanted to wear her shorts and cowgirl boots. Luckily Kade talked her into wearing her princess shoes! What a nice brother!           Kade making is mustache fall off…and making his sister smile! What a comedian!

Dopey

I have wanted to dress Keegan up as Dopey one of the Dwarfs from Snow White because he looks so much like him. About a month ago it was on TV and I though of Keegan every time I saw Dopey!

Well I still hadn’t worked out what Keegan was going to be for Halloween and tonight is the Trunk or Treat, so I found one of Ryan’s old green shirts, grabbed an old brown shirt of mine and grabbed one of Kamryn’s old purple shirts and in 30 minutes I had my home-made costume…it looks like it took me more than 30 minutes but not too much more! hah

 

 

I still have a few finishing touches….but here is his first fitting.

             I bribed him with a cookie….

But it didn’t last long….there goes the hat!He hates hats!

  

Kamryn volunteered to try it on for me…

Great Job Kade!

Today was an awards assembly for the first graders and I am so proud of Kade for not faking that he is sick and getting Perfect Attendance for the first Quarter! Last year he started a trend of not feeling very good to get out of doing something that he didn’t like doing. I am so proud of him! We love him very much and we are so glad he enjoys school!He looks so proud of himself! I was a proud mama!

          By the way, you can get those same bags under your eyes by staying up until 2am! Not sure why he was acting all embarrassed because before I left he ran up and gave me a kiss and a hug!

Apparently Kamryn felt the need to put the visitor sticker badge over her mouth…It did keep her quiet though! Silly girl!

Moment of love

Kamryn and Keegan have the typical brother sister relationship. They hit each other one minute and argue over whose toy belongs to them and then the next minute they are so sweet and nice to each other. Those are the moments I want to remember forever…  Nice little brother pushing his big sister. As soon as I grabbed the camera to get a picture Keegan ran off to ride Bullseye. Surprisingly Kamryn didn’t put him off the rocking horse because, “Dat’s Mine”

She actually wanted a kiss….I don’t think Keegan is too sure about giving a kiss to his sister though.

 She snuck a hug in though!

Boy did she want a kiss! He just wasn’t feeling it I guess!

Pumpkin Carving

Friday I bought some pumpkins for us to carve. We didn’t set aside some time to carve them so before I went to work Monday I printed out a fun patter of Kade’s choice for Ryan to carve. Before all the carving the kids had to help get all the guts out since they can’t cut the designs.

Kamryn was definitely not interested in sticking her hand in that thing. I don’t blame her! 

I can’t find the candle Ryan used the other night to get a picture of it all lit up. I will post a picture of all our pumpkins once they are done…we  still have 2 more to carve!
