We sure love this time of year. The weather is hopefully going to start to cool down and I love all the family activities around fall and winter time. We got a visit from Daphne for her birthday weekend which we enjoyed. We always love spending time with her.
We carved pumpkins with her. Typically we just paint the pumpkins, but the kids wanted to give carving a try..You can tell from the picture that Cavin wasn't loving digging out the pumpkin! Needless to say, his molded outside fairly quickly as I was not doing his dirty work!
Channing opted to just paint hers which I much prefer.
Cavin finally made something work thanks to Daphne's help!
Daphne came down for her birthday but also to watch the kids in the yearly Primary program that they have every year.
Here is our before church selfie! Love this crew! The kids all remembered their parts and did a great job! They are good kids!
The kids also had crazy hair day at school the next week and the girls wanted spiders in their hair! I did my best!
The next week was filled with 3 Halloween parties. It started with the Rockets Trick or Treat in the Suites which the kids love each year.
Ella was Hermione since she finished reading Harry Potter this year and was excited about the character.
Cavin was Harry Potter, and a cute one at that! He also has been reading Harry Potter and he and his sister are pretty close and love to do things together still.
Channing had to be something that involved wearing high heels ;). She is in love with shoes and only wants to wear shoes with heels. She was Belle this year!
Deacon...well, he was tricky this year. He only wants to be something related to sports. He wanted to be James Harden because we all know he is obsessed with him, but he was a Rockets player last year. So... we settled on a German soccer player since his next love is soccer and Germany. He is often cheering through the house, Go Germany Go! Every flag we pass in America is a Germany flag to him, not a United States flag, but we will let it pass cause he's so cute!
After the trick or treat, we had a church trunk or treat and Halloween trick or treating. Between it all we had WAY too much candy!
Naturally the kids and I love to sort it each year. It was a fun Halloween holiday.
