Halloween

On Halloween we always stop by and trick-or-treat at Maw Maw's house. This picture turned out adorable I think!

Then, we decided to stop by downtown Kernersville to let the kids wander for a bit. It was really crowded and we didn't feel like waiting in line for candy, but we did see a few fun things. The fire department had the fire truck out, which always makes E happy. We also ran across another Man in the Yellow Hat! And if you ask E, his favorite part was the big, big, big tall man.

Trunk or Treat

The kids really had a blast at the church Truck or Treat. Our favorite moment is when a friend walked up with their little Chihuahua - dressed as a spider. Emmett jumped about a foot in the air! After a while, Susie got tired of her hood and decided to be Little Red Hood Yellow Hat.

Pumpkin Carving

What better way is there to spend a Saturday morning than with friends? Love getting together with these guys!

Fall Leaves

We came home from work and Cam had started a great leaf pile, so we took the chance to jump in some leaves.

I love this picture - E got a piece of leaf in his mouth and Susie cracked up.

Maw Maw and Aunt Linda

Aunt Linda came to visit Maw Maw, and we stopped to visit. I didn't get a single picture of Linda, but I got these sweet pictures. Maw Maw gave Susie a little teeny purse with some Mardi Gras coins in it. Guess who got jealous and had to have some too?

Pumpkin Patch and Festival

We had a fun Saturday. We started out at the pumpkin patch. Susie loved trying to pick up the pumpkins. E was more concerned with hiding in the bales of hay. Then we headed to the Walkertown Fall Festival. They always have a free bounce house, and the kids loved it. The pictures are blurry, but you can see the smiles!

Mommy's Day Off

I got to stay home today. I love playing with the kids and watching them interact with each other. They snuck into my closet with flashlights, and their little giggles made my day.

Susie Q

This girl makes me laugh every single day. I love that she sucks her thumb (I know I won't love it when we try to get her to stop). She can be such a cheese, and she's always happy.

Family Dinner

We had a great dinnner at my cousin Ryan's house to celebrate October birthdays. The kids loved having a new house to explore. They were cracking each other up when they were playing on both sides of the door to her deck.

Fall Festival

Our first Halloween event was the Fall Festival at my school. Emmett LOVED it. Susie got tired of not being able to run around. It was fun showing off their costumes! They had a fun house room and E loved it. It had a trampoline, balance beam, bouncy balls, and scooters. Susie loved to sit right in the mouth of the pumpkin at my station for bean bag toss.

Conference Weekend

One of our favorite traditions is when our church has General Conference every April and October. We make omelets for breakfast. Yummy! We only wish we were closer to Cam's family to join in the great omelet breakfast!

Stubborn Susie

Susie has quite the stubborn personality. This morning, when E was still asleep, she sat in his chair and thought she was SO special. But this evening at dinnertime, she pitched a FIT when she had to sit in her chair again. Life is rough!
